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

    Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)[/b][/b][/color=green]

    Start Weight (from February 29th 2024 ): 177.0
    Goal Weight: (4 pound loss) 173.0
    End of Month Final Weight: xxxxx
    Total lost/gained this month: xxxxx





    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.


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

    03/04-177.8-(Trend Weight: 179.0)-

    03/11-179.6-(Trend Weight: 179.2)- Wow! Am I EVER glad that last week is over! It was a rough one in so many ways. I’m starting off this week with a day of travel to the Dentist about nearly 200 miles round trip. Not exactly a good way to start a new week, but hopefully I’ll be able to make some progress as the week goes on. As for this past week, all I can say is Phooey and Good Riddance!

    03/18-180.4-(Trend Weight: 180.4)- It’s been a rough week. My meals have been on target but I’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. I’ll change it back up this week! I’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 I’m exhausted. I’ve got to figure this out as well 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.

    03/25-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-

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


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Hey, I'm Crystal! ❤️ Goal for March is to be in the 160's by the 31st. Still watching macros while doing OMAD. Also plan to walk at least 5 days/week.

    5'4
    SW: 198 lbs (Oct. 2023)
    GW: 140-145 (By June, 2024)
    Feb 1st SW: 184.5
    March 1st SW: 176.8
    Feb 1st: 184.5
    Feb 7th: 183.6
    Feb 14th: 182.1 (weight was 181.4 yesterday). I expected a little increase, as some ladies and I had a Gallentines party last night with all sorts of goodies and champagne 🍾
    Feb 21st: 180.6 yayyy! Still loving OMAD. I think this number could have been better because I didn't put all the work in I should have. I only walked 2 times this week. Also, my sleep has been awful. If I can do better about those things then I know the loss will be better. Still satisfied though.
    Feb 28th: 177.2 had a couple of very low calorie days the past week due to sickness but all is better now! Didn't get as many walks in as I planned, but I'm happy to see a good loss! (7.3 lbs lost total in February)
    March 6th: 176.6 I could have done better this past week. Looking back at the week, there were a lot of social outings. Had a bunch of junk that I didn’t need. (Pizza, fries, candy, burger etc). I know these things are ok sometimes but when it's several days in a row, it doesn't do me any good. Didn't stick with Omad the whole week either, or my calorie/carb goals. The plan for this next week is to stay on track with my goals and omad.
    March 13th: 176.1 I did have a better week this past week, so I was hoping for more of a loss. The only thing I can figure is that it could be that I'm not sleeping well. Only got decent sleep maybe half of the days. At least it's not a gain. Just a little discouraged.
    March 20th: 175.5 Sloww loss for sure. I've changed some things since last week. Added more protein in my diet and getting more steps in. Hopefully this will help.

    Hi everyone,

    I'm jumping off here and joining a three months challenge that starts on April 1st. It might be best if I'm on just one challenge at a time.

    Wishing you all the very best!

    Hi Everyone,

    Still settling into the new house. Loving the new town though and getting back into walking regularly. I’ve been relapsing with sugar binges so best nip it in the bud before I gain much more weight.

    So far lost 2kg - 4.4lb this month so not too bad. Being Easter there is so much temptation though! Going to visit my mumma.

    It's been a sad month - she had to put her 2 dogs to sleep and my auntie died also. I’m taking my pup to see mum tomorrow- might cheer her up. y29qlnwy2rhq.jpeg

    Hi, I'm Jude. I'm 67 YO, 5' 2" and starting my 3rd month in this challenge. My history includes large swings in weight with up to 50 lb weight gains. Two years ago I was 125 lbs; I started 2024 at 147 lbs.

    My goal for 2024: to gradually lose the weight by changing the habits that hurt me and to learn how to integrate and maintain healthy eating habits for good.

    Jan and Feb:
    January goals:
    * continue my exercise routine- which has been pretty good
    * eliminate evening snacking- which is my downfall
    * weigh every day- which I avoid and then gain
    * log in here every week on Monday so I can't pretend the weekend is "free"!

    1/1: 146.6

    1/8: 142.6 

    1/15: 141.4

    1/22: 140.2 (a day early, we're away and traveling tomorrow)

    1/29: 139.2
    Starting weight: 146.5

    Goal weight: around/under 142
    Actual: 139.2
    Loss: 7.4 lbs


    February goals:
    * continue exercise routine, weighing and logging- I know what works, now do it.
    * continue to make good choices every day, enjoy food appropriately and within healthy numbers.
    2/5: 137.2
    2/12: 136.8
    2/19: 135.0
    2/26: 134.2
    Starting weight: 139.2
    Goal weight: around/under 136
    Actual: 134.2
    Loss: 5.0 lbs
    March goals:
    * stick with the plan, it gets harder to lose as I get closer to the goal
    * enjoy all our March birthdays and be conscious of portions
    * continue to log consistently
    3/4: 135.0 (birthday dinners!)
    3/11:132.8
    3/18: 131.4
    3/25:
    Starting weight: 135.0
    Goal weight: around/under 132
    Actual:

    Hey, I'm Crystal! ❤️ Goal for March is to be in the 160's by the 31st. Still watching macros while doing OMAD. Also plan to walk at least 5 days/week.

    5'4
    SW: 198 lbs (Oct. 2023)
    GW: 140-145 (By June, 2024)
    Feb 1st SW: 184.5
    March 1st SW: 176.8

Also, my sleep has been awful. If I can do better about those things then I know the loss will be better. Still satisfied though.
    Feb 28th: 177.2 had a couple of very low calorie days the past week due to sickness but all is better now! Didn't get as many walks in as I planned, but I'm happy to see a good loss! (7.3 lbs lost total in February)
    March 6th: 176.6 I could have done better this past week. Looking back at the week, there were a lot of social outings. Had a bunch of junk that I didn’t need. (Pizza, fries, candy, burger etc). I know these things are ok sometimes but when it's several days in a row, it doesn't do me any good. Didn't stick with Omad the whole week either, or my calorie/carb goals.

    March 20th: 175.5 Sloww loss for sure. I've changed some things since last week. Added more protein in my diet and getting more steps in. Hopefully this will help.
    March 27th: 173.1 Thank goodness for more of a loss this week. I was starting to wonder if I was going to lose anymore. I added more protein in and am aiming to walk most days. I stopped OMAD too because I dont think I was eating enough protein with the 1 meal. I'm having a protein shake and a cucumber for lunch. Still fasting, but doing 16:8 and 2 meals/day. Doesn't look like I'll meet my goal of the 160's by the end of the month but hopefully soon.

    I've been under a lot of stress this week, and my weight has yoyoed quite a bit because of it. I got all the way down to 314 lbs. two days ago, and now I'm back up to 316, even though I've stuck to my diet faithfully. :/ Well, I still have 2 more days till the end of the month. I just might make it to my goal weight yet.

    I also increased my exercise (light exercise due to health issues, mainly walking) from 20 minutes to 30 minutes a couple of days ago, and I now have a shin splint in my left leg from walking to much. Guess I got a little to confident in my abilities, and my body said, "Nope". So I'm icing my leg, and sticking with stretching and breathing exercises for now.

    Hi, I'm Jude. I'm 67 YO, 5' 2" and starting my 3rd month in this challenge. My history includes large swings in weight with up to 50 lb weight gains. Two years ago I was 125 lbs; I started 2024 at 147 lbs.

    My goal for 2024: to gradually lose the weight by changing the habits that hurt me and to learn how to integrate and maintain healthy eating habits for good.

    previous months:
    January goals:
    * continue my exercise routine- which has been pretty good
    * eliminate evening snacking- which is my downfall
    * weigh every day- which I avoid and then gain
    * log in here every week on Monday so I can't pretend the weekend is "free"!

    1/1: 146.6

    1/8: 142.6 

    1/15: 141.4

    1/22: 140.2 (a day early, we're away and traveling tomorrow)

    1/29: 139.2
    Starting weight: 146.5

    Goal weight: around/under 142
    Actual: 139.2
    Loss: 7.4 lbs


    February goals:
    * continue exercise routine, weighing and logging- I know what works, now do it.
    * continue to make good choices every day, enjoy food appropriately and within healthy numbers.
    2/5: 137.2
    2/12: 136.8
    2/19: 135.0
    2/26: 134.2
    Starting weight: 139.2
    Goal weight: around/under 136
    Actual: 134.2
    Loss: 5.0 lbs


    March goals:
    * stick with the plan, it gets harder to lose as I get closer to the goal
    * enjoy all our March birthdays and be conscious of portions
    * continue to log consistently
    3/4: 135.0 (birthday dinners!)
    3/11:132.8
    3/18: 131.4
    3/25: 131.4
    Starting weight: 135.0
    Goal weight: around/under 132
    Actual: 131.4
    Loss: 3.6 lbs
    April goals:
    * stick with the plan, it gets harder to lose as I get closer to the goal
    * continue to log consistently
    4/1: 130.2

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

    Start Weight (from February 29th 2024 ): 177.0
    Goal Weight: (4 pound loss) 173.0
    End of Month Final Weight: 179.6
    Total lost/gained this month: xxxxx

    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.

    03/25-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- Early and all day/evening travel today. I’ll catch up on reading the posts tomorrow and will post a weight in a few days when travel weight/sodium is released.

    03/31-179.6-(Trend Weight: 180.6)- February was a good month for me but March was horrible. I managed to reign it in at the end to minimize the damage because it was much worse, but I’m still very disappointed to have ended with a gain. Bring on April!


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Hey, I'm Crystal! ❤️ Goal for April is to be in the mid 160's or lower by the 30th. Still watching macros (1260 calories/day, low sugar and carb but not keto). Also continuing the increase of protein and to walk most days!

    5'4
    SW: 198 lbs (Oct. 2023)
    GW: 140-145 (By June, 2024)
    Feb 1st SW: 184.5
    March 1st SW: 176.8
    April 1st SW: 178.1 😒 (gain from a bad weekend)
    Feb 1st: 184.5
    Feb 7th: 183.6
    Feb 14th: 182.1 (weight was 181.4 yesterday). I expected a little increase, as some ladies and I had a Gallentines party last night with all sorts of goodies and champagne 🍾
    Feb 21st: 180.6 yayyy! Still loving OMAD. I think this number could have been better because I didn't put all the work in I should have. I only walked 2 times this week. Also, my sleep has been awful. If I can do better about those things then I know the loss will be better. Still satisfied though.
    Feb 28th: 177.2 had a couple of very low calorie days the past week due to sickness but all is better now! Didn't get as many walks in as I planned, but I'm happy to see a good loss! (7.3 lbs lost total in February)
    March 6th: 176.6 I could have done better this past week. Looking back at the week, there were a lot of social outings. Had a bunch of junk that I didn’t need. (Pizza, fries, candy, burger etc). I know these things are ok sometimes but when it's several days in a row, it doesn't do me any good. Didn't stick with Omad the whole week either, or my calorie/carb goals. The plan for this next week is to stay on track with my goals and omad.
    March 13th: 176.1 I did have a better week this past week, so I was hoping for more of a loss. The only thing I can figure is that it could be that I'm not sleeping well. Only got decent sleep maybe half of the days. At least it's not a gain. Just a little discouraged.
    March 20th: 175.5 Sloww loss for sure. I've changed some things since last week. Added more protein in my diet and getting more steps in. Hopefully this will help.
    March 27th: 173.1 Thank goodness for more of a loss this week. I was starting to wonder if I was going to lose anymore. I added more protein in and am aiming to walk most days. I stopped OMAD too because I dont think I was eating enough protein with the 1 meal. I'm having a protein shake and a cucumber for lunch. Still fasting, but doing 16:8 and 2 meals/day. Doesn't look like I'll meet my goal of the 160's by the end of the month but hopefully soon.
    April 3rd: 174.8 I was traveling this past weekend and I had a 5lb gain from not tracking, eating all the foods I normally do not and several alcoholic beverages. Most of it has came back off thankfully but it's still upsetting that it set me a week behind. Next week will be better.

    Jan 27: 162.2 ☹️ Not the right direction

    Total weight lost in January: 4.2 Pounds

    Feb 3: 160.6 Not as bad as I expected. Have been traveling and eating out every day since Jan 31.
    Feb 12: 159.8 😁 I am so happy with this - been on vacation since Jan 31 - got back yesterday and today weigh the same as I did when I left. Now to focus and lose some weight in February!
    Feb 18: 158.8 😁 Forgot to post on Saturday - but I was one more down!

    Mar 30: 152.6 😁

    Total Weight Lost in March: 4 Pounds

    Apr 6: 153 ☹️ My first up in a long time. Had a self sabatoge day yesterday - and expected this. Will have a tough week ahead (which probably caused my self sabatoge) with Easter tomorrow and then going on a small trip for two days.
