08/19-192.2-(Trend Weight: 191.1)- Good meals and too many snacks again yesterday. I’m so very proud of the meal choices I chose yesterday. So healthy and filled with things I would never have eaten a year ago. My diet is getting so much better! However, late night is still my downfall. It’s not hunger since I didn’t eat dinner until 9:00 pm and was satisfied. It’s just a thing. A bad thing. A very bad thing. Trying again today and hoping to reach that better mindset when the skies become dark and night time surrounds me. Luckily the snacks remain “approved snacks”. Just too many and/or too much. On another note, I finished the 2 season series “Firefly Lane” last night on Netflix. Wow. It will stay with me for awhile.
08/26-190.0-(Trend Weight: 190.8)- My weight is down from last week but I know how much better I COULD BE doing! Time to get serious. I can’t go into the holiday seasons as the year progresses and be as out-of-control as I have been! I am capable of so much more!

Hello,
I have been struggling to reach my goal weight. I am trying to build some muscle so I know that I will see my weight fluctuate (which is just annoying but I get it). My goal overall is to tone up. I just had a small foot procedure so I can’t exercise yet, however I am motivated to start. Good luck to all. Start date 7/19.

Thank you @jedaschultz
I'm Chris - 74 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...

I've changed my goal as it was too unrealistic. My new goal is to lose a total of 20lb during the challenge. That's about 1.44lbs a week for the next (almost) 5 weeks. Much more achievable!

STARTING WEIGHT AND DATE WITH MFP(MY FITNESS PAL):154
YOUR CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE:145
YOUR CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL:140
*I lost a bit of weight by changing my habits eating at restaurants. I only eat out if I am with others and just get one entrée, no sides.
*I quit drinking cream/sugar after 2 cups of coffee..most days
*I've been trying to eat breakfast most days, but haven't noticed any differences.
*Also, I have been eating 2 bean or legume dishes per week and not noticed any difference in my weight. This has recently morphed into eating 1-2 tofu meals per week which I do think took off a pound or 2!
JULY 1: 145
JULY 5: 145
*5 days into my "Dry July". I am pretty careful about sticking to recommended 1-2 per day and no more than 5 per week so it'll be interesting,for me, to see if I notice any differences!
JULY20: 146
"Dry July" is not helping any because I bought a fiesta pack of Jaritos and have been splitting one with my daughter almost every day or having some other cold, sugary drink!🌞😅
Aug. 3rd:148
Cutting out alcohol definitely didn't help any with weight loss! I've been craving more sweets and carbs lately. However, I have been sleeping so much better!!! I am going to try buying a better quality bottle once a month or so instead of every week because of that only.
Also, it's been rainy or too hot and humid here..so walking a lot less.
I've stopped trying to eat breakfast as that is so hard for me to stick to, but I'd like to try one month having a bit of oats, every day, in the morning to see if it makes any difference for me. Maybe for September!
Aug. 10th-146
Going to track my added sugar this week, and aim under 25 g.
Aug. 20th- 144
Didn't count sugar grams over the weekend, but think I stayed under 35 g. Under 25g is so difficult for me! I am going to try to stay under 35g, at least, which is less than 10% of my daily calories.
Aug. 30- Hangin' in there @ 144lbs😅
Trying to figure out what small changes I can make to drop these last 10 pounds without worrying over every calorie. I have my meals logged in advance every week, usually around 1500 calories per day. (I'm short 5'2). I try to stick to the plan, but not counting calories anymore.
Wishing everyone the best with this challenge! 🌻3 -

Hi everyone,
I've had some trouble "getting my bearings"; so I've decided on one, FINAL "do over" from tomorrow until at least the first day of 2025 to reach my initial goal weight of 140 lbs. or less.
I can hardly believe that tomorrow is SEPTEMBER! It's also a Sunday. I think Sunday weigh-in days work better for me; so tomorrow morning will be my new DAY ONE!
I will try to be consistent in weighing in every Sunday and reporting before the end of the day.
I will post stats and progress as well.
Enjoy the Labor Day weekend!
