Wonโt be making my WL goal for May. I admit there were a lot of distractions that I allowed to get in my way. Also a trip, and two birthdays. Removing sugary processed foods from my diet stating today! They are not good for me! ๐ฟ2 -

Hi, my Name is Rhonda.
I did really well in Last month's challenge so I'm hoping to succeed this month in getting to Onederland again.
HW: 256
Got gastric sleeve in 2020.
Lw after sleeve: 179
Didn't take vitamins and got sick and gained back up to 216.
Started April at 216 ended at 206.
May Start Weight: 206
May Goal Weight: 199
Ultimate Goal Weight: 150
May 1: 206
May 8: 205
May 15: 203 I held steady ALL week 205 and I was getting disheartened then BOOM 203. I skipped 204
altogether
May 22: 205
May 29: 202.5
May 31:203
I'm really frustrated not to hit goal. I could tell week 5/22 I was holding water, and at one point I was 200.5 but I've just been holding steady at 202-205 the last few weeks. I'm still at 1400 calories and stay pretty consistent at that. I guess I'll figure it out. On to June.1 -

Hi, my Name is Rhonda.
I'm really frustrated not to hit goal. I could tell week 5/22 I was holding water, and at one point I was 200.5 but I've just been holding steady at 202-205 the last few weeks. I'm still at 1400 calories and stay pretty consistent at that. I guess I'll figure it out. On to June.
Is it possible to step back and instead of having frustration at not meeting a somewhat arbitrary goal and instead give yourself some congratulations for losing three pounds? That's almost a pound a week, and that's GREAT!
If you weigh every day, and it looks like you might if you saw a much lower number one day, maybe you could use a spreadsheet to calculate a running average instead of paying ANY attention to the number on one given day. My mass goes up and down a whole lot. I went up two pounds in one day earlier this week, but it's been coming back down slowly since that day. My average weight only jumped up 0.4 pounds that day. Of course the average is still going up even though the scale is going down, but it really does help smooth out the normal fluctuations.

Heaviest weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
Original MFP starting weight (January 2018): 168.2
January 1, 2024 Weight: 155.4 (10-day average 155.8)
April 27 (Starting Weight for this challenge): 147.4 (10-day average 146.9)
May goal: Get back to lower end of maintenance weight range
Ultimate goal: Stay in maintenance range between (absolutely 140 - 153 and ideally 142-148)
I report scale weight and (ten day average weight), and I post on Saturdays.
April 27: 147.4 (10-day average 146.9)
May 4: 146.8 (10-day average 147.4)
May 11: 146.6 (10-day average 147.4)
May 18 146.0 (10-day average 146.4)
May 25: 150.0 (10-day average 146.8)
May 31: 149.2 (10-day average 148.6)
Total loss for May: After some up and down, and after getting back where I started, the last week was not so good. I gained a pound and a half. I am back just above my ideal maintenance range, and I'm in the top half of my absolute range. Still in range, but time to get serious again. I am down 7.1 pounds for the year. That's more than a pound a month, so I'll be satisfied with that.
Stick to it!

My name is Donna. I am 64 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 (Iโll know it when I get there!)
Start Weight (from Apr 30th, 2024 ): 185.6
Goal Weight: 181.6 (4 pound loss)
End of Challenge Final Weight: 181.8
Weight lost/gained this month: 3.8 lbs Lost
Weight in blue makes me blue because itโs a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itโs a loss. Weight in black means no change.

05/19-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)-
05/26-184.6-(Trend Weight: 186.4)- I know I belong back in the 170โs. I donโt deserve the 160โs yet, but the 170โs is where my true home is (for now). Iโve just got to get back there! Iโve been feeling pretty lost since February, but I think Iโm back on the right path now. Not the perfect path, but the right path. Today is the family BBQ. I donโt expect that the scale will be a friendly place tomorrow but I will work on it hard this week. I donโt expect I will meet my goal this month. Especially when it was my birthday month, Motherโs Day and now the Memorial weekend Holiday. But I do want to end up with the scale lower than when I started so that is my mini goal this week. Memorial weekend unofficially marks the beginning of summer in the USA. Letโs do Summer strong!
05/31-181.8-(Trend Weight: 185.5)- Iโve worked really hard these past 11 days to turn things around and show a loss. I nearly made goal only missing it by .02 . Finally, a decent month. I really havenโt had one since February. Fingers crossed for June!
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
