Today I will get my hearing aids repaired. They have been on the blink for about a week because I've had to wait to get an appointment. I have to say, I've enjoyed my quiet week. However, the most frequent word in my vocabulary has become, "What", and I know it frustrates others to repeat things and to speak loudly to accommodate my poor hearing.
Hopefully, after today I can reduce the number of times I use the word "What" and focus again on reducing my weight. Ha! "What" do you think about that?

Hello! I've gained quite a bit of weight over the past few years, and I'd like to turn that trend around. At a minimum, I'd like to get out of the obese zone, so my first goal weight is 185.
My goals for January:
- Daily physical therapy for chronic injury
- Lose 4-8 pounds
Jan 1: 216.7 (PT & calorie deficit)
Jan 2: 215.0 (calorie deficit)
Jan 3: 214.4 (PT & calorie deficit)

*My scale didn't sync with the app this morning, so I'm going off of memory... I'll update this tomorrow if the data transfers later and shows a different value...3 -
Billy AZ losing weight fast at the beginning of a new program is motivating for sure. You are smart to make adjustments early and to listen to your wife. Ha! Good job buddy.2

Morning All!
Leveling off day! After the first three days, knew this was coming so I’m neither upset or surprised. Didn’t do anything wrong but did up the calories with a cereal to get closer to 1500 than 1200. Double session of tennis today and a hard intention to at least maintain or even drop a little tomorrow.
1/1 217.3 😱
1/2 212.7 (-4.6)
1/3 208.5 (-4.2) (-8.8)
1/4 206.7 (-1.8) (-10.6)
1/5 207.0 (+0.3) (-10.3)
Hope everyone has a great day!
Cheers,

Jan. 2- DNW
Jan. 3-182.4 lbs. fitness class
Jan. 4-181.2 lbs. morning swim

Anyway, the good news is I swam for an hour this morning and am determined to get back on track. Have 2, sweet, 10 year old granddaughters coming over for a sleepover over today. They won’t do it at their homes, but insist on coming here🤔. They know what they’re doing👵🏻.

1/5: I know that this is mostly adjustment of bloat from the holidays, but it's encouraging to see the number drop. A good boost, but the real work will start when the number stabilizes or goes up.6 -
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!

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.

01/03-181.4-(Trend Weight 180.5)-
01/04-182.0-(Trend Weight 180.7)- My Christmas Dinner was on the 30th. I always suffer from intense cravings after people-gathering holidays. Last night I satisfied my craving for Pasta. I wish I would have stuck to the roast beef I had planned. I’ll have that tonight, it’s already in the crock pot. I need to be a good girl as the scale is getting out of hand. I’ve been working at taking down the Christmas decorations and all the Christmas trees (5 of them). I hope to finish up today. At least I’m getting lots of steps in and climbing lots of stairs!
01/05-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- Back to my school bus schedule for DGS in Kindergarten. Up at 6:15 which is about 4 hours earlier than usual so I typically do not weigh on Fridays. Yesterday I worked on finishing up removing and packing up the Christmas décor. So many steps! It felt like the old days when I worked before retirement!

Started a vision board. It’s in my home office. Whenever I feel down, lose motivation, have cravings, I go stand in front of it. I add stuff everyday. So far I have my before picture, events I’m doing this year so far, sayings that inspire me, other bodies that inspire me. It helps me. “Love” is for love your body now, love the process, love the opportunity you have to better yourself, love that I will mess up but I can always keep trying.
Have never posted a picture here so not sure if it will work.
