    Total loss for March: Essentially unchanged again this week. Still up for the month. I am still in maintenance, and at a pretty steady average weight for that matter. I'm near the top of my maintenance range though. I am down 6.6 pounds for the year.

    Stick to it!

    Kind of holding steady with little time for meal planning or exercise. Trying to maintain while juggling a lot of hectic schedules rights now. This weekend I picked up fresh fish and groceries to meal plan for a few days which helps.

    March Start Weight: 145.9 (will use 2/29 weigh-in)
    March Goal Weight: 143
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 139

    March 1: 145.9

    My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5โ€™ 5โ€ tall. My highest weight was 253 in 2016. My MFP start weight was 235 in 2018.

    Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (Iโ€™ll know it when I get there!)
    Start Weight (from Feb 29, 2024 ): 177.0
    Goal Weight: 173.0 (4 pound loss)

    End of Challenge Final Weight: xxxxx
    Weight Lost/Gained this month: xxxxx





    Weight in blue makes me blue because itโ€™s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itโ€™s a loss. Weight in black means no change.


    03/01-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)-

    03/03-178.2-(Trend Weight: 179.2)-

    03/10-178.8-(Trend Weight: 178.9)- Itโ€™s been a rough week food-wise. It started off okay as you can see by my trend weight, but these last couple of days have been filled with restaurants or special out-of-the-ordinary days on my schedule. Iโ€™ve got to get my routine jump started again. Tomorrow is another travel day but I hope that starting on Tuesday things can level out. Have a great week everyone!

    03/17-180.4-(Trend Weight: 180.4)- Itโ€™s been a rough week. My meals have been on target but Iโ€™ve found myself very hungry by night. I think I began to eat all my meals too early leaving me with too many hours in the evening. I also found that I was logging my food AFTER I ate it, instead of pre-logging and sticking to the planned snacks. Iโ€™ll change it back up this week! Iโ€™ve had virtually no exercise as this renovation is keeping me so busy and the guys seem to need me every minute. By the time they leave every evening Iโ€™m exhausted. Iโ€™ve got to figure this out even if it seems impossible right now. I know one thing for sure, the gains must stop and the progress must resume. My health really declines with too much weight as a diabetic and a heart patient. Health should always come first.

    03/24-182.6-(Trend Weight: 180.5)-Itโ€™s been a horrible month filled with events, travel, special occasions and many many times of weakness. I would certainly like to turn this around by the end of March so I am AT LEAST back into the 170โ€™s. And even with that, Iโ€™m so tired of just treading water. Nobody can change it but me. Thankfully every day is a new day and a new opportunity. Will I walk around it like a cold mud puddle or will I embrace it like a warm hug? I donโ€™t know about you, but I like warm hugs way better than cold mud puddles.

    03/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250โ€™s; 240โ€™s; 230โ€™s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180โ€™s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    @Wean_over_that_now Thank you for this. It is a good idea for a lot of reasons to change things up. I am hoping with the new season I can do just that!

    @AllyNorth Ever think of changing up your routine? Eat at different times, workout at different times, do different workouts you haven't done before? Body gets use to repetition and stops burning as it use to because of it. Give it a change overall and it should give it a motivational boost. Same as doing everyday routines, then all of a sudden you take an unexpected vacation, even if for a weekend and you feel rejuvenated. Body reacts the same way your mind does. Give it a change, it should go the trick

    Current Weight: 351.4
    March Goal Weight: Maybe 5lbs (I showed up late to the party.๐Ÿ˜†)
    Ultimate Weight Loss Goal: It's hard to say. I used to be stricter but over the years that has changed when I realized just how hard it is to lose weight and then maintain it. The short-term goal is to get back to 300/285 lbs. The long-term goal is to get down to somewhere between 260 and 220 lbs.
