    Hello I'm Darlene. 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 found MFP in March, and this group in April. This challenge is the first I signed up for on MFP, so it holds a very special place in my heart. 💖 This month is a year with some of these amazing people. 💖 I am so thankful for their support and accountability.

    My Goals for April


    ⚖️ Lose 2% of my body weight - changing my goal this month, my 4 pounds per month is getting really difficult now that I almost to my goal weight - but still am going to try to get that 4 pounds!
    👣 Average 17k Steps Daily with one day of rest
    📝 Log Daily
    🥗 Stay under my calorie range
    💪 Strength Train 3 days per week
    🧘‍♀️ Tai Chi or Yoga 1 day per week
    🫀 Aerobics 3 days per week
    💦 6+ glasses of water
    📖 Putting this one back in there - read almost every day
    🧂Stay Under 2400 mg of sodium daily


    👣 📝 🥗 💪 🧘‍♀️ 🫀💦📖 🧂

    Highest Weight 228

    SW Dec: 228 | Jan: 217 | Feb: 212 | Mar: 207.6 | Apr 200.2 | May 194.8 | Jun: 189.6 | Jul: 187.4 | Aug: 179.8 | Sept: 174.2 | Oct: 169.6 | Nov 164.6 | Dec 164 | Jan 159.8 | Feb 156.8 | Mar 154.8

    April Starting Weight: 154.8

    🌷🌈April 🌈🌷

    April 1: 154.8 👣 📝 🥗 🫀💦📖 I love the beginning of a new month. Feels like a fresh new start; a clean slate. I have noticed a pattern in my weight loss. I do fantastic the first week of every month, then I kind of get lazy and for two weeks and the weight loss slows. Then I see the end of the month coming; and Yikes - only one week to finish my goals. I usually finish out the month strong. This month I'm hoping to skip that laziness in the middle of the month. Keep me to it!

    April 2: 154.4 😁👣 📝 💪 💦📖🧂 I added a new goal to my monthly, I will post whether I was under my daily sodium goal. It has huge affect on my daily weight flucuations, so if I am accountable for it, maybe I won't abuse it so much. Had a good night with Mom at bingo, she won (always a good thing), and I won twice last night. Had a brownie - put me over my calorie limit.

    Hi All!
    This marks my 8th month with this challenge.... In that time I have reached my goal zone BUT lately my logging habits have been very spotty. Last month I was really slack. This month I want to increase my efforts. I'd like to lose a few more pounds and start running or exercising again.

    weight.png

    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!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s


    This Challenge Starting Weight (from March 31st): 179.6
    Goal: 175.6 (Four lb Loss)
    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx
    Total Lost/Gained this month: 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.


    04/01-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- The dinner was good. I couldn’t believe the long line standing outside in the freezing cold just to get in. We waited because we drove such a long way for it. Quantities were pretty good, choices can always be better. I feel pudgy and bloated today. Hopefully things will settle back down in the next day or two.

    04/02-180.6-(Trend Weight 180.9)- This is my weight about 36 hours after the all-you-can-eat Easter buffet dinner. One lb up which I can handle. Today I’ll push water and focus on eating properly. I’ll need to space my meals out so I don’t overdo any night time snacks. Plan, plan, plan.

    Hello April 🌱! I’m Kat, 32, 5’1”. SW (Feb.): 122.6 Lost so far: 7 lbs UGW: ~105
    I’m still struggling to find what works for me so my goal this month is to focus on exercise.
    🪺
    4/01: 115.6 Tonight I’m going to reset my Ring Fit game and start from scratch.
    4/02: 115.8 I haven’t participated in any of the work potlucks since I started this journey (well I bring food but don’t eat any) so I decided to have some sweets yesterday and probably some today too. I don’t feel bad about it since my other choices are still healthy and we all need balance and joy. I really didn’t want to exercise, but I pushed through and did a couple levels of Ring Fit. Tonight I have a gardening webinar right after work, but I may be able to do some light exercise while I’m listening.

    I have developed a yucky cold 🤒 and it is already affecting my weight loss... up 1.2 pounds. Need to come up with a gluten free version of chicken noodle soup. I always crave canned Campbell's soup when I'm sick. (Throwback to my childhood; chicken noodle soup, saltine crackers, and 7-up.) At least I stayed strong and didn't give in to my craving for the crackers and 7-up.

    Jude, 67 YO, 5' 2". Highest weight 165, lowest 115. Looking to change my relationship to food to one that's healthy and sustainable. My 4th monthly challenge!

    4/7:

    I'm getting lax about logging my food, so I need to get back to that. During the week I eat almost the same thing every day- same breakfast, 2 different lunch choices and about 3-4 typical dinners. It's lazy, but it's the easiest way to make sure I'm staying in my "lane". But the habit of logging my food is really important, so today I'll start up again.

    Played pickleball outdoors for the first time. It is a different game dealing with the sun, wind, temp and cement surface. Harder on my leg joints but still great exercise for balance and mobility. Plus I got to play with some players with skill levels way better than mine. Fun in the Sun!
