    Hi, I am Lisa. I am 57 years old, 5'5" tall and I live in Tillsonburg, Ontario. I am married with two grown sons. One son lives in town here with his girlfriend, and the other is single and lives in Zurich, Switzerland. We have a family farm supply business that I work very, very part time at, filing invoices and stuffing and mailing monthly customer statements. I damaged my knee at the end of May and by the end of June I had given up. However, losing weight would be the single greatest thing I could do to help my knees, my feet, and any other body part that is screaming at me at any given moment!! And on top of that, my son is probably going to propose to his girlfriend at Christmastime, and I do not want to be this size in the wedding photos!!

    It's time to get this weight off for good! My first goal is Onederland....again :(

    31: 205.8
    1: 205.2
    2: 206.0 No idea why...maybe sodium from last night's ham?

    Hi All, I am a busy mother of five slowly working my way to my goal weight. During September I entered my "Normal" BMI category and am now about 10 pounds from my ultimate goal. This will be my 3rd month in this challenge. I had never weighed myself daily before this challenge, and I am finding it to be so helpful and informative to weigh and check in daily.

    My goal for November is to NOT GET DERAILED BY THANKSGIVING. 🦃 🥧 😊 Let me tell you, I can really get derailed by a holiday. I may or may not log on Thanksgiving or the day after, and that's OK. But my Thanksgiving goal is to log daily from Saturday the 25th through the end of the month.

    Starting weight September 1: 141.0

    Starting weight November1: 132.8

    Goal for November: 130.4 Considering Thanksgiving, I'm setting my goal a tad on the conservative side.

    November 1: 132.8 I logged 🍁
    November 2: 132.8

    Hi, I'm a 50+ yo married female, 5'6", and tired of looking and feeling like I do. I’m making changes to get out of the Obese category, to look good in my clothing, and to have confidence in public again.

    Heaviest Weight: 221 | Ultimate Goal Weight: 165

    Nov 1: 208.3
    Nov 2: 209.3

    Started November with TOM that never showed up in Oct. Up 5 lbs from end of Oct. No candy for Halloween either, this is all water. So frustrating.

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 63 years old and from the Michigan USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s



    Starting Weight (from Oct 31st): 181.4
    Goal: 177.4 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    ******************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME****************************


    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.


    11/01-181.2-(Trend Weight 184.5)- I am really struggling to get enough protein in. Even when I “chicken” and “tuna” myself to death. I’m going to have to look into adding protein shakes. I just have to watch the sugar content in them due to the T2D as well as the triggers. I know that Premier Protein is a popular one. I’ll be doing my research. I didn’t eat NOT EVEN ONE little candy bar from the Halloween candy. Lord, stand with me in Strength today!

    11/02-183.2-(Trend Weight 184.4)- It was a pre-planned higher calorie & carb day yesterday on Zig-Zag and no TMI today so this is to be expected. No worries. I’m starting to see a pattern that sometimes it goes up a day or two before it starts dropping to new lows. Fingers Crossed.

    Welcome to the new people this month.
    @deepwoodslady protein is something I also struggle to get enough of. The last week, I’ve added yogurt to my diet. I have T2D as well and am trying to cut most sugars. I still eat fruit though. That may change. Not sure about it. I buy pre-made Premier protein shakes from Coctco. They’re handy to have in a pinch. I haven’t found any other pre-made shakes that I like. Chocolate is the flavour I like. It has a little aftertaste, but it does the trick.

    @Melwillbehealthy Thanks for the tip. Yogurt is an excellent idea. I'm not sure why I didn't think of it! The nearest Costco to my house is about 150 miles away. I'm in a very rural area. But there is a Walmart our town travels to about 50 miles away. That town also has a new Meijer's store. I'm sure they both probably carry the Pre-made Premier protein shakes. I also order many things from Walmart dot com or Amazon dot com. I'm going to look into high protein yogurts. I did add some Chia seeds to my diet a couple of days this week. It has a little protein but not nearly as much as I need to add. It has other benefits too though. BTW chocolate is my favorite flavor too. I don't mind any aftertaste. We get used to that a bit as diabetics, don't we?

    @fourathomej I drink my coffee black and I drink a LOT of coffee. Like you, I don't drink a ton of milk but I do use Fairlife 2% which is 13g per cup. Dang, it's hard to get in 80 grams or more of protein per day! Thanks for the tip on the Greek Yogurt. That will definitely narrow it down for me.

    What a cute pic of Noah! I'm in Love.....
