MY CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE:150
MY CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL:140
Last time I had challenged myself to eat at restaurants only for social activities, not alone, and then just an appetizer and drink. I lost 4 pounds. So I am going to continue this, and add another challenge. 2 bean dishes per week at home. 1 bean soup recipe and vegetarian pasta and peas...every week!
January 1:150
January 8:151
January 15:Back to 149..Beans!
January 22:?
January 29: ?
Feb 2: Back to 151! 🥲
So the bean dishes are tasty & have been really good for my wallet. I have been getting entrees à la carte like one taco or a sandwich without a side instead of appetizers as sometimes that is the healthier option.
I refuse to suffer just to lose 10 pounds! I'm brainstorming again to think of some sort of tweak to cut calories enough to start losing weight..I did just discover the smart bmi website, which puts 144 as a healthy weight for me. That made me feel a lot better!

CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Dec 31st): 183.8
CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 12 pounds to land at 171.8

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.

02/19-179.4-(Trend Weight: 180.5)- As you can see by my trend weight which has dropped dramatically, it’s been an up & down week with very little consistency and not enough structured exercise. I can do better. It’s disappointing that I had many days, many meals with much cooking, planning, logging. Many days of ignored cravings and hunger even that I had to get through. And for just a few moments of pleasure here and there, I only dropped 0.2 in a week. It’s truly not worth it. I’ve got to stick to the plan!

Random stuff about me:I am 59 years old this month (ouch). I currently live in Texas with my hubby and crew of kitty babies. I am a neonatal nurse practitioner and work 24hour shifts in a busy NICU. If it looks like I disappear on random days…that’s why! About 10 years ago I lost 135 pounds. Never made it to goal but just sort of leveled off at ~200 pounds. Over time I gained back nearly 50. Working on getting back at least to my low weight of 200. I would like to eventually make it to 150 where I think I would be comfortable.4 -

January 8: 206 I did great all week until the weekend and then overate yesterday. Disappointing! The first anniversary of my DH death is coming up on March 9. This month marks his rapid decline. Many memories and most are sad and unpleasant.
January 15: 206.8
January 22: 206.8 Went up last week and stayed the same, now to bring it down. My special needs daughter had lithotripsy (sound waves) to remove a kidney stone yesterday. It's been a very stressful last few days with that and freezing rain that made driving to the hospital very tricky.
January 29: 205.6 I haven’t felt the best this week with suffering vertigo from BPPV. Still managed a loss. Only lost .4 for the month but at least the number is down and not up.
January Goal: 203
January Actual: 205.6
January Loss: .4
February 5: 207.4 Well this is not good! Gotta watch what I’m doing, too many calories and not enough exercise.
February 12: 208.8 Another terrible week and it's showing in my health. Developed a superficial blood clot in my leg. Treating it with just aspirin. Emotionally this is a rough time for me. My husband went into the hospital and year ago this month and died on Mar. 9. I've been coping with food and that's not good. I need to figure out something else.
February 19: 208.2 Well at least it’s down and not up. A long way to go.

So after a week of taking it easy on the sofa and eating because I am a comfort eater.
Yesterday was my first day back at work.
It went well. Think I might start doing excerize next week.
I advice people to not get hemorrhoids. They are no fun to have and they were no fun to remove.
So I ate lots of died fruits last week and drank loads of movicol. I know I ate more than I should so Wednesday as usual I stopped tracking. Because I got bored of seeing the numbers. Started again now.
The dog has her first heat. So she can not be left outside on a string but has to be supervised at all time.
I hope some of the gain is water weight from painkillers and being stationary.

January 8: 206 I did great all week until the weekend and then overate yesterday. Disappointing! The first anniversary of my DH death is coming up on March 9. This month marks his rapid decline. Many memories and most are sad and unpleasant.
January 15: 206.8
January 22: 206.8 Went up last week and stayed the same, now to bring it down. My special needs daughter had lithotripsy (sound waves) to remove a kidney stone yesterday. It's been a very stressful last few days with that and freezing rain that made driving to the hospital very tricky.
January 29: 205.6 I haven’t felt the best this week with suffering vertigo from BPPV. Still managed a loss. Only lost .4 for the month but at least the number is down and not up.
January Goal: 203
January Actual: 205.6
January Loss: .4
February 5: 207.4 Well this is not good! Gotta watch what I’m doing, too many calories and not enough exercise.
February 12: 208.8 Another terrible week and it's showing in my health. Developed a superficial blood clot in my leg. Treating it with just aspirin. Emotionally this is a rough time for me. My husband went into the hospital and year ago this month and died on Mar. 9. I've been coping with food and that's not good. I need to figure out something else.
February 19: 208.2 Well at least it’s down and not up. A long way to go.
February 26: 207.2 Yay! Still up from starting this challenge but at least another week in the right direction. I haven’t felt well most of the week as well as most of this challenge. Adding on weight certainly doesn’t help either. Traveling again this weekend to visit extended family I haven’t seen in a few years.

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.

02/12-179.6-(Trend Weight: 181.4)-
02/19-179.4-(Trend Weight: 180.5)- As you can see by my trend weight which has dropped dramatically, it’s been an up & down week with very little consistency and not enough structured exercise. I can do better. It’s disappointing that I had many days, many meals with much cooking, planning, logging. Many days of ignored cravings and hunger even that I had to get through. And for just a few moments of pleasure here and there, I only dropped 0.2 in a week. It’s truly not worth it. I’ve got to stick to the plan!
02/26-180.2-(Trend Weight: 180.2)- It was a very very emotional day yesterday and I ate my emotions last night. It didn’t help. Now I have to work my way back into the 170’s again.

Hello, how do I join this challenge please? I'm new to MFP. Used fitbit last year and the challenges there really helped so I think having some community support works great for me. Any advise welcome. Thanks3
