Hi I'm Jenny from the Bronx, NY - 58 years old, 5' 6", and struggled my whole life with food. I was already at my top weight and then gained another 20 pounds during the pandemic that I keep gaining and losing. I'm working hard to get back to a weight that's not super skinny but something I can maintain and feel good at -…

@deepwoodslady How exciting to be so close to those incredible milestones!!! I've always taken BMI with a grain of salt because I am a big-boned girl, literally I feel like my skeleton weighs more than average because at 5'6" the top weight on the chart is 148 for a healthy weight, and I would be a BONE at that weight.…

Day 76-12/07: 188.2 - I've been fighting to make time to exercise this week and have managed to eek out 30 minutes the past couple days...and I haven't let grief allow me to start bingeing. So that's something I guess... Day 77-12/08-xxxxx- WEEK 11 LOSS OR GAIN: Accumulated Loss or Gain:

@dawnbgethealthy @deepwoodslady @bteri107 Thank you all so much for your kind words about Molly. I still haven't processed it and keep thinking I see her...and then have to remember all over again. :'( The grief is a little overwhelming but am just putting one foot in front of the other and doing the best I can. I really…

Day 69-11/30: skipped – another 5am start for work… Day 70-12/01: 191.0 – I mean, I’m just thrilled to death to make it back to my low of last week! And since I didn’t do an official week 9 total, I’ll just claim it for this week. I did a BG tabata workout this morning and just feel so damn GOOD – a far cry from how crappy…

Day 55-11/16: 194.0 Day 56-11/17: 194.0 – Had the cancer areas burned off my chest, it hurt but was over more quickly than I expected so counting that as a win. Work is still nuts, hanging in there and trying to make sure I still get some movement/stretch in… WEEK 8 LOSS OR GAIN: 1.8 Accumulated Loss or Gain: 18 pounds…

Day 49-11/10: 195.8 – took my measurements, and down an inch on my waist & hips from 3 weeks ago! It’s so nice seeing these numbers get back to things I feel like are more “me”. WEEK 7 LOSS OR GAIN: 1.2 loss Accumulated Loss or Gain: 16.2 loss
-
Day 48-11/09:195.8 – eeking downward…I had to get 3 biopsies done yesterday on suspected basal cell carcinoma areas on my chest and nose – my poor nose has already had Mohs surgery about 4 years ago, taking a chunk of cartilage from my ear to replace the chunk they took out of my nose, and this small red spot they biopsied…

@deepwoodslady - I'm so very sorry for your loss. She looked like a sweet girl!

Day 47-11/08: 196.0 – Back in the loss column for the week, let’s see if I can eek out a bit more by Friday! I’ve been staying consistent with my workouts & stretching, even if I keep them a little shorter when I have a busy work day. For me, that’s the key to keeping my head screwed on straight health-wise!
-
Day 46-11/07: 197.0 – ok, headed back in the right direction…did a good BG tabata walking/weight circuit, was a fun change in routine.
-
Day 45-11/06: 197.8 – well, here’s where weighing daily is helpful! I did have a higher than usual calorie day yesterday, but not crazily high…so we’ll see how this shakes out as the week goes on. The number on the scale can’t take away a big NSV yesterday - trying on a dress I haven’t worn in at least 4 years and having…

I am doing fasting as well, and I think it's a huge reason I'm doing so well. Well that - and no alcohol. That's pretty huge too. I have never lost weight this consistently, even while staying perfectly on whatever "new" diet trend I was trying. This time I'm simply counting calories, staying away from alcohol and eating…

Day 39-10/31-198.6 Day 40-11/01: 197.4 – ok hopefully this drop sticks! Have a deadline at work today but just stopped to do a 15 min strength/15 min stretch workout….it’s really important for me to fit in even quick workouts especially on more high pressure days, otherwise I find myself fighting that “bad” food craving ……

Day 37-10/29: 197.8 – had a feeling yesterday was a fluke…but still maintained a drop from Friday, it’s all good. It’s a rainy day here – got in another great pool workout & focused on upper body strength work, and am about to embark on my food prep for the week- chopped rainbow salad for DH’s lunches, Eggroll in a bowl…
