    I'm 47 and my low weight on MFP is from after my second kid and my high weight is a few years after my 3rd kid. He is almost 10 so long past baby weight. I'm finishing up chemo for breast cancer before being put on maintenance medication which frequently causes weight gain. I'm not worried about exercise this month but my dietary goal is to have my daily protein around 80g and reduce my chocolate intake.

    I do Tuesday weigh ins

    ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

    Somewhere between May and now, I dropped from 128 to 124. Losing a kilo (2 pounds) a week is probably too much, too fast (I just went with a round number), but so long as I lose something, I'll be happy. I think that if I stick to counting calories and exercising, I should get there.

    Hello Everyone,

    The summer was a roller coaster, back at it for the holidays.

    September 2023 start weight 207.7
    Loss total 26.7

    September Start Weight: 181
    September Goal Weight: 176
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 142

    September 4: 181

    I am embracing the turtle, 26.7 loss for the year? YES! I will gladly take it since that year has included vacations, family outings and time spent with friends. I am learning not to give up when the scale goes the other way.

    I’m back for September with a goal to start weighing and measuring my food! In fact, I measured shredded cheese today vs. weighing grams and they were not the same, a bit surprising. I chose to take the gram weight which gave me a little more cheese but maybe I should use a good ‘ol measuring cup if it’s less.

    But, my 2-week cruise is looming…..not the best time to lose weight this month. Therefore, my weight goal for September is to stay at or under my August weight of 148 lbs. Also won’t be weighing in while on vacation.

    My overall goal is to get to 143 by New Years 2025!

    September Start Weight: 148.4
    September Goal Weight: at or less than 148
    January 1 2025 goal: 143
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 140

    3lbs on 😫… it’s been my husband’s birthday and my birthday, so definitely too much cake and eating out with no tracking.

    Back on it to reach my goals 🤞🏻

    My name is Donna. I am 64 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!)

    Start Weight (from Aug 29th, 2024 ): 190.0

    Goal Weight: 186.0 (4 pound loss)

    End of Challenge Final Weight: xxxxx

    Weight 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.


    09/01- I got my grocery shopping done out of town and eliminated some of the “approved” snacks that were just too tempting. Will there be more eliminated later? Maybe, but it’s a start. I hate how much harder it is to breathe and also maneuver steps into the house with the grocery bags when these extra pounds are on. Incentive! I will likely post a weight tomorrow. Good luck this month my friends. This will be a very challenging month for me with lots of travel including some overnights. I’ll be giving it all I’ve got!

    09/08-189.6-(Trend Weight: 190.9)- Down a tad from the start. I did some day travel yesterday (restaurants and sitting) and I have a two day trip beginning tomorrow for some important medical stuff so I don’t anticipate that this will be my best week. Tomorrow's trip comes but once a year. Thankfully, what goes up must come down so I will try hard to watch my p’s & q’s while I’m away and will work very hard when I get home to get back to routine. I’m from a very very tiny farming town so I must admit that I’m looking very forward to the city and all of its restaurant offerings. Not the best feeling to have when I’m trying to lose this spare tire but nothing I can't tackle later and overcome! Happy Sunday everyone!

    09/15-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
    09/22-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
    09/29-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
    09/30-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-


    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
