    weight.png

    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 Dec 31st): 183.8
    Goal: 179.8 (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.

    01/06-183.0-(Trend Weight 181.2)-

    01/07-183.0-(Trend Weight 181.3)- Pizza yesterday that didn’t help my cause but I managed to keep it under my allotted calorie and carb limits. I did get off my lazy you-know-what and get some exercise in. Today I will work to improve my diet choices. The holidays are over and it’s time to get into the swing of things again.

    01/08-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- I woke up to a big disappointment. I got on my scales and they kept flipping from 174.8 to 175.4 which I know is impossible at this time. I haven’t even had TMI so they should be the same or even up slightly from yesterday’s weight. Also, it did not change over and show me the fat %, Water %, and all the other data it usually gives. It just went black after the weight every time I tried it. All the functions worked perfectly yesterday. I didn’t have another set of AAA batteries so I borrowed some from my TV remote and it still would not work properly. I’m afraid it’s time for a new scale. This one only lasted two years at most. Strange that it stays nicely lit but won’t perform. Anyway, I’ll be scouring Amazon for a new one today so I won’t be able to weigh until it comes in. I must stay diligent and not let my brain go into free-for-all mode just because I don’t have to weigh for a few days. Yes, I have common sense, but that could very easily happen anyway so I am going to pre-log all my food as soon as I am done posting on my challenges to help me stay in line. I will also force myself to exercise today as I could possibly get lax on that too, thinking I’m getting away with murder with no scale. It kind of feels like the teacher is absent today and I have a brand new very young substitute. As far as I think I have come in this weight loss journey, boy am I ever weak and boy oh boy, do I EVER have such a long way to go. Sometimes the physical part is easier than the mental part! Have a good day my friends. I am buckled down for our 6 – 10 inches expected snow storm. I went out yesterday for all the fresh stuff – eggs-bread-milk so my son & I are prepared.

    Hello, I’m Heidi. I’m 55, 5’5” and I live in Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas area.

    My goals for January:
    1 - Weigh in daily
    2 - Begin light cardio/stretch/weight exercises
    3 - Maintain current weight or lose a little

    Weight:
    01.01.24 - 165.9 (.1 over my post surgical low)
    01.02.24 - 166.5 (swelling is going back up)
    01.03.24 - 167 (swelling is continuing to go back up)
    01.04.24 - 167.5 (calling surgeon to see why I am blowing up like a balloon)
    01.05.24 - 167.2 (surgeon says I am okay - here's to hoping it was just water retention!)
    01.06.24 - 166 (much better)
    01.07.24 - 165.1 (almost back to my post surgical weight)
    01.08.24 - 164.2 (swelling weight gain GONE plus .7 more!!)
    01.09.24 - 163.6

    Exercise:
    1 - Started small stretches (arms above head, side twists) which are going well. The pulling on my
    incisions was horrible at first but are less so after a week. I also started doing some modified
    bridges in the hopes that my healing abdominal muscles would start strengthening up. I am
    walking much better and even walked the entire trip to Costco and pushed the cart. The hubby
    still won't let me lift much except the small laundry basket!

    Highest weight Sep 2004: 315
    Gastric Bypass weight Jan 2005: 281
    Lowest weight Nov 2005: 142 (told to gain weight)
    Highest recent weight Jun 2023: 228.8 (lost and gained throughout the years - oops)
    Skin removal surgery weight Nov 2023: 175
    Goal weight: ??? (I'm okay where I am but wouldn't mind losing a little more)
