    Hi all I'm Linda from Northen Ontario Canada. An old gal of 75 but that's just a number your only as old as you want to be. Seen a few here from Canada. Starting this morning at 200. My goal is to get under 200 for tops this week. Before you ask tops stands for take off pounds sensibly. My thing this year is eat less move more. I'll be back tomorrow if I can find this.

    @icharpentier2 Just slide up to the top of this posting page, to the right of the challenge title you will see a little flag symbol. Just click that to turn it blue and it will bookmark the challenge for you. I hope this helps.

    Hi! Call me Bee - Im a married 43yo, 5'6" from Canada. 13y ago went from 190 to low 130s then steadily climbed 100lbs higher than my highest weight. This time around I'd like to adjust better mentally as well to KEEP the health improvements.

    My January goals:
    Daily AM weighin βš–οΈ
    Log all food 🍽
    5 water bottles daily (to start) 🌊
    6.5k steps daily (to start) πŸ‘£
    Daily 30m walk 🦢
    10m 3x/week elliptical πŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈPOSTPONED

    Jan 2 - 287.5βš–οΈπŸ½πŸŒŠπŸ‘£πŸ¦ΆπŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈ
    Jan 3 - 284βš–οΈπŸ½πŸŒŠπŸ‘£
    Jan 4 - 284.5βš–οΈπŸŒŠπŸ‘£πŸ¦Ά (so far)

    I had to play around with my 10+yo digital scale until I had 2 matching numbers.. think on my birthday next month I'm going to request a new one! πŸ˜‚

    Your story sounds so similar to mine, and we’re a similar age and weight. Would love to be my fitness pal friends and cheer each other on!

    Hi everyone,

    Forgive my weakness, but I just can't weigh myself every day - the fluctuations are making me crazy! Basically it's been like this:

    DEC 31: 146.2
    JAN 01: 146.2
    JAN 01: 147.2
    JAN 03: 147.4
    JAN 04: 148.2

    WHAAAT?! I definitely haven't eaten enough to gain any weight, let alone two whole pounds! It's too discouraging and I'm afraid I'll give up!

    I will just stick with my weekly weigh-ins every Sunday (on Jill's other board); so my next weigh-in will be Sunday, January 7th.

    Best wishes to all! πŸ’—
    Carole

    I don't weigh daily either! It's not great for my mental health. I check my weight once a week. I check in here daily with an update on which goals I worked on. And chatting with everyone is a great bonus 😁

    I realize there's a weight logging tool here but I also use the "Monitor your weight" app because it has a fabulous weight graph. There's a few extra lines on it to monitor your progress. I took a screenshot of their explanation of how it works.. it could possibly be helpful to the recent few mentioning how much daily weighing doesn't work for them. As long as those weighins keep trending down it doesn't really matter the tiny fluctuations up and down daily. Don't forget first thing in the AM, naked after a bathroom break would be the most ideal time as you wouldn't be weighing the food, drink, clothing or waste in your body. πŸ˜‰

    ETA let us know how it works out for you if you give it a go! I'm going to log losses here on mfp but log every day for this trend line information over there.
