@deepwoodslady Hi! Funny you should ask about protein intake- I saw a registered nutritionist on Wed of this week and she calculated my recommended protein at about .5 grams/lb based on moderately active exercise. However, it depends on your particulars, so you can calculate it, anywhere from .36 minimum. Seems like .4-.6 grams per lb is a safe range. There' a good article in health.Harvard.edu on just this subject.
@judefit1 Thanks for the info. 182 pounds x .5 equals 91 so I am assuming that 91 grams is a safe middle of the range. I hope I am doing that math in the correct form.
I will find the article. Thanks for passing it along.2 -
My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 63 years old and from 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.
02/01-183.4-(Trend Weight 183.0)-
02/02-181.8-(Trend Weight 182.8)- Today is my typical late weigh-in for Friday. No TMI x 3 so that is a little worrisome. It was a good day yesterday. I stuck to my diet plan and did a moderate amount of exercise. I was in bed by midnight so I could get up for the school bus with DGS today. Midnight is much earlier than usual for me. That really kept me from the super late night snacking. Maybe I should get in bed earlier more often although that means giving up my “me” time. I’m a Netflix junkie. I tried weighing on my old scale today which I thought was broken. I kept it just in case it was a moisture thing etc. I moved it around in several places and the weight and fat % was consistent. It puts me at about 1.5 lbs. less than this new one. Which one do I believe? Of course, I want to believe the old one! For now, I will stick to this new one since I’ve already paid for it. But it made this beautiful sunny winter day in Michigan seem a little brighter today than I thought was possible. Happy Groundhog’s Day! It is reported that he did not see his shadow indicating an early spring. That never happens in my neck of the woods. Our last snowfall is usually in early May.
02/03-182.6-(Trend Weight 182.8)- There was something in the house that was haunting me. It’s gone now. Up 0.8 today. I will be making soup for dinner. Homemade chicken noodle so there will be pasta. I will try to make the rest of the day accommodate that.

I've been lingering around this weight for some time now. I want to get below 175 and stay there through and past the Superbowl and Valentine's Day. I need to put some negative pounds in the bank so I can spend them on chocolate and party snacks I don't have the discipline to stay away from. Ha! I wonder what Taylor Swift would do????? 💕🏈

Weight is fluctuating a fair bit so far this month but no huge gains. It’s very hot here in inland Australia and it’s hard to eat early so eating too late and chugging water like a fish. I might have a lazy day because my whole body is really sore and feet swelling with the heat.

I am back for a second month and need to buckle down
Starting weight - 85kg (eek) - 187lbs ( 8/1/24)
Goal weight - 65kg - 143lbs
January loss 1.2kg - 2.6lbs
😎 FEBRUARY 😎
Feb 1 - 84kg - not the best start as went up in weight. Working through a triggering health scare for my daughter and we don’t get results until Tuesday. Needless to say, I ate and drank my emotions last night. Will go for a beach walk with hubby after work today.
Feb 2 - 83:7kg - no walk and over my calories. Will continue to log
Feb 3 - 83.7kg - 9km walk with hubby and lunch at a winery with friends I haven’t seen in months. Think I did ok calorie wise but it is definitely a slow start to the month
Feb 4 - 83.6kg - 9km beach walk.7 -

Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a while now. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023. 💖I wouldn't be where I am today without this group (along with a couple other challenges I am in); I am so thankful for their support and accountability. 💖
My Goals for February
⚖️ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal), but will be happy just maintaining this month, as I am on vacation for 11 days of the month.

Feb 1: DNW 📝 💦
Feb 2: DNW 📝 💦 Stiil traveling, scheduled to arrive tonight. Eating terribly on drive down, sure I'll be up from my ending Jan tomorrow.
Feb 3: 160.6 📝 🥗 💪 💦 Not as bad as I expected. We arrived in Florida, my home for the next 7 days. Beautiful 70 degrees. We are kind of in the city and no treadmill, so think I will be doing most of my steps in front of youtube. We are going to conquer the Chain of Lakes Trail while we are here 4.7 miles
(one way).
Feb 4: 160.6 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 Beautiful day yesterday. Took out AM walk, went to the thrift store and bought a food scale (forgot to pack mine), 8 shirts, 1pair of pants, and a golf club - all for under $15 dollars. Then our friends came to the house (we are staying in for a couple days while Monty adjusts to the new place). Played pinochle, played farkle, chatted, sat in the sun. Couldn't be any better. We got take out for lunch, but stayed within my calorie goal.6 -
Hi All!!!
So I slacked off last the last two or so weeks of January.... I stopped logging and checking in, and ate a lot more freely; however I did not gain. This is good.
This is the month that I'm hoping to reach my goal weight, whatever that is, LOL. I'm starting the month at 126.8 pounds; my goal will probably be somewhere around 123-125. I'm hoping to know when I get there. Just to have a concrete goal to shoot for, let's say it's 124.
Original starting weight: 160 lbs
Goal for February: 124.0 lbs
February 1: 126.8 💗 I logged
February 2: 128.0 Hopefully just a temporary gain from our big meal last night.
February 3: 128.2 💗 I logged
February 4: 127.8

In addition to weighing each morning, I've been taking my Blood Pressure. I've been doing this since Sep 2023. My BP seems to drop as my weight does. Also, my bowling average seems to go up and I play better pickleball and softball as I lose weight. Ha! 🏓🥎🎳💓

Hello Everyone!
I'm joining because I need some peer pressure to track on the daily, and not become OCD over daily weigh-ins, which ultimately are very helpful but can set me off all on my own.
I'm also adding "train 6/7" on this tracker for accountability. If anyone on here by chance feels like having an online training buddy, I would be super happy to ping PRs back and forth.
Best of grit to everyone,
Kim
