    @mnhughes22 Don’t drive yourself crazy with your goal number. Losing 22 lbs over 11 weeks is an excellent result. Life happens. You dealt with the unexpected issue, and you still get to record a 4.5oz/day weight loss for the summer (so far). That’s 2lbs/week! Keep up the good work!

    Thank you Jeda for continuing to post these challenges. You always give me hope.

    I’m 76, from B.C. Canada. Have a terrible track record of never completing these challenges but committing to this one. My Life Goal is to remain fit and active well into my 80's. I love nature walks, kayaking and biking but recent arthritic and other muscle issues have been a challenge. Allowed “life” and other obstacles ( habitual procrastinator ) to interfere with a great event I’d registered for but had to withdraw from. Recognizing that I can’t ‘push through’ like I used to be able to do even 8 years ago has been hard.

    My highest wt was 183; two years ago I managed to get down to 156, but then a slow backslide began. April of this year I saw 173.6 ☹ . Currently yo-yoing in the mid 160’s; Wt Loss Goal for this challenge is to lose 10 lbs and return to 156.
    SP highest wt: 183
    MFP: Joined June 2021, 175lbs.
    Challenge Starting Wt: 166
    Challenge Goal: 155

    July 3: 166
    July 10: 167.6
    July 17: 168.6; July 19th recognized that long term use of MiO water flavorer was causing inflammation which was the cause of total body aches and pains & stiffness ( hard to bend to touch the floor).

    Oh my god!! I am almost back to where I started. I am 9 months sober and sometimes I eat ice cream when I want to drink alcohol. I ate a lot of ice cream on vacation. Although it did not show up on the scale, I am proud of how well I honored my health on vacation.

    :
    Congratulations. That is impressive.

    Good news is the puppy is getting bigger and bigger so it needs more walking. It is in that charming stage where it eats shoes.

    My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.

    Start Weight (from Aug 31, 2023 ): 191.8
    Goal Weight: 187.8 (4 pound loss)

    End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)





    Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.


    09/01-193.2-(Trend Weight: 195.0)-

    09/05-192.0-(Trend Weight: 194.3)-

    09/12-191.2-(Trend Weight: 193.4)- Weather turned quite chilly now for the past week. I’m hoping on Indian Summer but we shall see. It’s been a week of ups and downs but I finally reigned it in and am seeing more progress.

    09/17-190.4-(Trend Weight: 192.1)- My trend weight continues to drop which means I am doing something right. 1 pound down this week. Of course, I wish it were 2, but “if wishes were fishes, we’d all swim in riches.” Have a great week my friends. See you next Monday.

    09/30-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
