Day 01 – 03/01 …….199.8……A long way to go….. Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 03/02 ….…201.6…… Emergency travel yesterday with limited menu choices and limited movement.
Day 03 – 03/03 …….201.6…… Prep cooked last night.
Day 04 – 03/04 .…..200.8…… A nice drop after a well planned day. Why can’t I do this everyday?
Day 05 – 03/05 ….…200.6…… Stayed the course, even with a special dinner & dessert for DGS#1 & DGS#2.
Day 06 – 03/06 …….200.3…… Very S..L..O..W.. Progress, but I’ll take what I can get! Diet & exercise on point yesterday. Praying that I will be just as strong today!
Day 07 – 03/07 ….…200.1…… A slow but rewarding process.
Day 08 – 03/08 …….201.0…… Ate all the right low cal & low carb foods. I just ate to much of them. Control….Donna…..Control!
Day 09 – 03/09 …….200.2…… Better. It was not a perfect day but I realized that I don’t have to be perfect to be great.
Day 10 – 03/10 …….199.8…… I was hoping for a bigger drop, a whoosh even because I burned over 3200 calories yesterday and walked over 9 miles/over 21,000 steps. I stayed within calorie and carb range and my water intake was not too bad. However, no TMI so maybe that’s it. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess.
Day 11 – 03/11 …….199.8…… Very tired today. So far the food plan is going well but I am giving myself a self-imposed rest day from just about everything. Sit on butt day, for the most part!
Day 12 – 03/12 …….199.8…… Holding it steady but need a drop on the scale. Patience is a virtue for sure!
Day 13 – 03/13 …….200.2……
Day 14 – 03/14 …….199.9……
Day 15 – 03/15 …….200.1……Wow, the days ARE following the dates. Cool observation Dawn! @cpanus I hope you are continuing to do well following your surgery. Thinking of you!
Day 16 – 03/16 …….200.7…… My scale went up and it was from bad choices, not pre-weigh liquids. : / Yesterday was overboard by a bit. Today by a lot. Stress eating for sure. It’s gonna stop tomorrow.
Day 17 – 03/17 …….200.4…… I’ve got to try harder!
Day 18 – 03/18 …….200.4…… I’m just trying to stay safe from the virus and figure out how to eat carbs without gaining weight! Yes Dawn, we must try to stick to SOME SORT OF PLAN.

I like to weigh every day to keep me accountable - knowing that I will be weighing in the morning sometimes stops me from continuing to eat at night : - )
My name is Dawn. 59 year old female.
I live in South East British Columbia Canada
MFP start date October 29.18 - SW 191
Ultimate goal weight - 112 - 115
November 22
Day 1: 11/22 - 158.1
November result: 0.4lb loss
December result: Gain 3.1 pounds
Day 71, Fri, 1/31: 159.7
January result: Gain 0.2 pounds
Day 72, Sat, 2/1: 158.1 - exactly the same as Day 1 of 100 days
Day 100, Sat, 2/29: 154.4
February result: Loss 3.7
Total loss over 100 days: 3.7 pounds
Parking here until there is another post for March 01 - June 07
Day 1 - Sunday March 01.20 - 155.3 - up almost a pound from yesterday.
Day 2 - Monday March 02.20 - 156.8 - up again, but well within my goals. Going to stay diligent.
Day 3 - Tuesday March 03.20 - 156.5
Day 4 - Wednesday March 04.20 - 156.1
Day 5 - Thursday March 05.20 - 154.8
Day 06 - Friday March 06.20 - 155.5
Day 07 - Saturday March 07.20 - 155.2
Day 08 - Sunday March 08.20 - 156.4 - Ate like a normal person, this always trips me up. I will get back at it.
Day 09 - Monday March 09.20 - 156.7 - wrong direction, maybe tomorrow it will even out
Day 10 - Tuesday March 10.20 - 157.2 - No reason for the gain, hoping that it will even out soon.
Day 11 - Wednesday March 11.20 - 155.3 - That is better
Day 12 - Thursday March 12.20 - 154.2 - Much better
Day 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 14 - Saturday March 14.20 - 153.6 - On track for a better 100 days than the last, in which I lost 3.7 pounds in 100 days. Still a very long way from my Goal, but feeling like it will keep coming down. 2.5 pounds away from a 40 pound loss now.
Day 15 - Sunday March 15.20 - 154.5 - I expect to be less tomorrow, slightly over (0.1 pound) from the end of the previous 100. Definitely feeling lean from all of the workouts yesterday, the scale is just not reflecting it.
Day 16 - Monday March 16.20 - Not putting in my weight today because I sort of broke my routine, had 2 glasses of water and 2 coffees before weighing. Let's just say it was high, and I don't think accurate, so I will call it a DNW day.
Day 17 - Tuesday March 17.20 - 156.7 - The wrong direction. I will stay diligent.
Day 18 - Wednesday March 18.20 - 156.1 - I almost threw in the towel for all of this yesterday, I got so discouraged about everything going on in the world, and not feeling like putting any more time and energy to this process wherein I measure, weigh, work out daily etc. to lose an insignificant amount of weight that can return in 1 day after months of fighting so hard to lose 1 pound. I do feel better today and will stick at it.
Day 19 - Thursday March 19.20 - 155.4 - A little better, many calories burned yesterday, and slept in today.
Day 20 - Friday March 20.20
Day 21 - Saturday March 21.20
Day 22 - Sunday March 22.20
Day 23 - Monday March 23.20
Day 24 - Tuesday March 24.20
Day 25 - Wednesday March 25.20
Day 26 - Thursday March 26.20
Day 27 - Friday March 27.20
Day 28 - Saturday March 28.20
Day 29 - Sunday March 29.20
Day 30 - Monday March 30.20

Donna, carbs have less calories than other things. Of course amounts are important, but sometimes the added fibre and quick metabolizing of carbs is not a bad thing. I think that with the difficulty of finding ingredients the stuff in our pantries will be relied on a bit more, this includes rice and pasta and the like.
Were you Keto?
I tried Keto a few years ago and gained 50 pounds over 6 months and am still struggling to get rid of it.
We are like scientists trying to figure out the best plan for us as individuals - we all respond differently to different things.
Seeing that we are both 59, there is the increased difficulty of trying to lose weight once we get older. It can be frustrating, but checking in daily and looking at numbers helps. Even though I lost only 3 pounds in the previous 100 days (translating to 10 pounds or so in a year) I suppose that it is better than nothing or gaining.0 -
@dawnbgethealthy Yes, I was Keto which really helped with my diabetes numbers until I went off the rails during the holidays. I agree about the weight gain, it comes back very very quickly unless you stop low-carb very very gradually (which I did not, during the holidays). I am going to try to look closer at calories but still make the best lower carb choices for my glucose, even if it is not below 20 or below 50. Honestly, I'm very confused again. And I'm feeling so insecure about being able to get my normal staples such as eggs, cheese & meat. We only have one grocery store and they are doing their best. It is family owned, not a major chain so I pat them on the back for how well they have done so far with keeping things in stock. However, all the items I need most are still in very short supply. I think things will level off with all the hoarders, but I still feel so insecure. Whatever plan I choose, I just want to be able to stick with it. You just can't hop on & off low carb because of supplies, the weight gain is too fast and hard to lose (as you said, at our age).

Yes, this is a very trying time. I have known some diabetic people and they definitely have to keep their sugars and fats very low.
It seems like everything is a carb. I have some pastas made of lentils, black beans and the like. Although they don't contain wheat, they still have the same calorie count as their wheat alternatives.
I most recently discovered Kanjac noodles, which come from a root and are spiralized - extremely low in calorie. I think that they may be hard to find in a remote area or maybe in the USA at all.
I don't have a spiralizer, but definitely buy pre-spriralized zucchini, squash etc. and have that in my freezer for when I want a lower cal spaghetti type option. I am not eating low carb, but I try to keep my calories low.
I think that you are right and that people that were stocking up to prepare to stay in should soon have everything that they need to sequester, and the run on products should settle down.
I work as a merchandiser for several companies, so I am in all of the stores in my town (population around 20,000) and the stores were much quieter yesterday than they have been.
I definitely will have to re-motivate myself on the weight loss journey. I will work on that.1 -

“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Day 01 – 03/01 …….199.8……A long way to go….. Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 03/02 ….…201.6…… Emergency travel yesterday with limited menu choices and limited movement.
Day 03 – 03/03 …….201.6…… Prep cooked last night.
Day 04 – 03/04 .…..200.8…… A nice drop after a well planned day. Why can’t I do this everyday?
Day 05 – 03/05 ….…200.6…… Stayed the course, even with a special dinner & dessert for DGS#1 & DGS#2.
Day 06 – 03/06 …….200.3…… Very S..L..O..W.. Progress, but I’ll take what I can get! Diet & exercise on point yesterday. Praying that I will be just as strong today!
Day 07 – 03/07 ….…200.1…… A slow but rewarding process.
Day 08 – 03/08 …….201.0…… Ate all the right low cal & low carb foods. I just ate to much of them. Control….Donna…..Control!
Day 09 – 03/09 …….200.2…… Better. It was not a perfect day but I realized that I don’t have to be perfect to be great.
Day 10 – 03/10 …….199.8…… I was hoping for a bigger drop, a whoosh even because I burned over 3200 calories yesterday and walked over 9 miles/over 21,000 steps. I stayed within calorie and carb range and my water intake was not too bad. However, no TMI so maybe that’s it. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess.
Day 11 – 03/11 …….199.8…… Very tired today. So far the food plan is going well but I am giving myself a self-imposed rest day from just about everything. Sit on butt day, for the most part!
Day 12 – 03/12 …….199.8…… Holding it steady but need a drop on the scale. Patience is a virtue for sure!
Day 13 – 03/13 …….200.2……
Day 14 – 03/14 …….199.9……
Day 15 – 03/15 …….200.1……Wow, the days ARE following the dates. Cool observation Dawn! @cpanus I hope you are continuing to do well following your surgery. Thinking of you!
Day 16 – 03/16 …….200.7…… My scale went up and it was from bad choices, not pre-weigh liquids. : / Yesterday was overboard by a bit. Today by a lot. Stress eating for sure. It’s gonna stop tomorrow.
Day 17 – 03/17 …….200.4…… I’ve got to try harder!
Day 18 – 03/18 …….200.4…… I’m just trying to stay safe from the virus and figure out how to eat carbs without gaining weight!
Day 19 – 03/19 …….200.8…… Then there’s that! Sheesh!
Day 20 – 03/20 …....201.3…… Gotta focus! Dawn, OMAD = one meal a day. Many people do this when doing a short Intermittent Fasting window like 20:4 . Sadly, my diabetes won’t allow me to eat just once without a severe glucose drop.

I like to weigh every day to keep me accountable - knowing that I will be weighing in the morning sometimes stops me from continuing to eat at night : - )
My name is Dawn. 59 year old female.
I live in South East British Columbia Canada
MFP start date October 29.18 - SW 191
Ultimate goal weight - 112 - 115
November 22
Day 1: 11/22 - 158.1
November result: 0.4lb loss
December result: Gain 3.1 pounds
Day 71, Fri, 1/31: 159.7
January result: Gain 0.2 pounds
Day 72, Sat, 2/1: 158.1 - exactly the same as Day 1 of 100 days
Day 100, Sat, 2/29: 154.4
February result: Loss 3.7
Total loss over 100 days: 3.7 pounds
Parking here until there is another post for March 01 - June 07
Day 1 - Sunday March 01.20 - 155.3 - up almost a pound from yesterday.
Day 2 - Monday March 02.20 - 156.8 - up again, but well within my goals. Going to stay diligent.
Day 3 - Tuesday March 03.20 - 156.5
Day 4 - Wednesday March 04.20 - 156.1
Day 5 - Thursday March 05.20 - 154.8
Day 06 - Friday March 06.20 - 155.5
Day 07 - Saturday March 07.20 - 155.2
Day 08 - Sunday March 08.20 - 156.4 - Ate like a normal person, this always trips me up. I will get back at it.
Day 09 - Monday March 09.20 - 156.7 - wrong direction, maybe tomorrow it will even out
Day 10 - Tuesday March 10.20 - 157.2 - No reason for the gain, hoping that it will even out soon.
Day 11 - Wednesday March 11.20 - 155.3 - That is better
Day 12 - Thursday March 12.20 - 154.2 - Much better
Day 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 14 - Saturday March 14.20 - 153.6 - On track for a better 100 days than the last, in which I lost 3.7 pounds in 100 days. Still a very long way from my Goal, but feeling like it will keep coming down. 2.5 pounds away from a 40 pound loss now.
Day 15 - Sunday March 15.20 - 154.5 - I expect to be less tomorrow, slightly over (0.1 pound) from the end of the previous 100. Definitely feeling lean from all of the workouts yesterday, the scale is just not reflecting it.
Day 16 - Monday March 16.20 - Not putting in my weight today because I sort of broke my routine, had 2 glasses of water and 2 coffees before weighing. Let's just say it was high, and I don't think accurate, so I will call it a DNW day.
Day 17 - Tuesday March 17.20 - 156.7 - The wrong direction. I will stay diligent.
Day 18 - Wednesday March 18.20 - 156.1 - I almost threw in the towel for all of this yesterday, I got so discouraged about everything going on in the world, and not feeling like putting any more time and energy to this process wherein I measure, weigh, work out daily etc. to lose an insignificant amount of weight that can return in 1 day after months of fighting so hard to lose 1 pound. I do feel better today and will stick at it.
Day 19 - Thursday March 19.20 - 155.4 - A little better, many calories burned yesterday, and slept in today.
Day 20 - Friday March 20.20 - 156.5 - An expected jump, I had a Ribs dinner last night - self-indulgence.
Day 21 - Saturday March 21.20 - 157.2 - Still being indulgent, and the scale is showing it. Not quite motivated just yet. Being diligent affords me such miniscule weight loss, just kind of hit a wall with it. I will soon need to get back on track.
Day 22 - Sunday March 22.20
Day 23 - Monday March 23.20
Day 24 - Tuesday March 24.20
Day 25 - Wednesday March 25.20

Thanks for the info on OMAD : - ) Acronyms : - )
Things change over time, I remember when the idea was 6 small meals a day - that is what fitness trainers were using with their clients to keep their blood sugar even. Not that I ever had a trainer, but one of my sisters did. She found that difficult because she was too busy at the time to try and get all of those meals in.
I suppose different things work for different people. I kind of believe in Calories in/Calories out.0 -
Always, always I watch the calories too. Even when I keto. For sure the sugar drops If I wait too long between meals but I still try to IF as best as I can. Some days are no sugar drops, other days are horrid. My sweet spot right now seems to be 2 meals per day and a few small approved snacks that are low carb and reasonable calories that fit into my calorie / carb budget. I try to never eat anything extra if I don't have too, but sometimes I just do have to if my sugar starts rapidly dropping. When my weight is lower, my diabetes is much better and I don't have as much fuss and incidents with it. Right now, this is basically my own fault because of all the winter holidays. Everyday is a new day for me to get back on track and I start each day hopeful. Let's do this Dawn! We both know we can! These are trying times, but we have so many tools we've learned from MFP and from general research. We are Superhero Strength Strong Women of this Society. Slayers!!! That is a lot of S's and S's have a lot of curves, but together we can turn every corner!1

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ March 1, 2020 through June 7, 2020

“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Day 01 – 03/01 …….199.8……A long way to go….. Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 03/02 ….…201.6…… Emergency travel yesterday with limited menu choices and limited movement.
Day 03 – 03/03 …….201.6…… Prep cooked last night.
Day 04 – 03/04 .…..200.8…… A nice drop after a well planned day. Why can’t I do this everyday?
Day 05 – 03/05 ….…200.6…… Stayed the course, even with a special dinner & dessert for DGS#1 & DGS#2.
Day 06 – 03/06 …….200.3…… Very S..L..O..W.. Progress, but I’ll take what I can get! Diet & exercise on point yesterday. Praying that I will be just as strong today!
Day 07 – 03/07 ….…200.1…… A slow but rewarding process.
Day 08 – 03/08 …….201.0…… Ate all the right low cal & low carb foods. I just ate to much of them. Control….Donna…..Control!
Day 09 – 03/09 …….200.2…… Better. It was not a perfect day but I realized that I don’t have to be perfect to be great.
Day 10 – 03/10 …….199.8…… I was hoping for a bigger drop, a whoosh even because I burned over 3200 calories yesterday and walked over 9 miles/over 21,000 steps. I stayed within calorie and carb range and my water intake was not too bad. However, no TMI so maybe that’s it. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess.
Day 11 – 03/11 …….199.8…… Very tired today. So far the food plan is going well but I am giving myself a self-imposed rest day from just about everything. Sit on butt day, for the most part!
Day 12 – 03/12 …….199.8…… Holding it steady but need a drop on the scale. Patience is a virtue for sure!
Day 13 – 03/13 …….200.2……
Day 14 – 03/14 …….199.9……
Day 15 – 03/15 …….200.1……Wow, the days ARE following the dates. Cool observation Dawn! @cpanus I hope you are continuing to do well following your surgery. Thinking of you!
Day 16 – 03/16 …….200.7…… My scale went up and it was from bad choices, not pre-weigh liquids. : / Yesterday was overboard by a bit. Today by a lot. Stress eating for sure. It’s gonna stop tomorrow.
Day 17 – 03/17 …….200.4…… I’ve got to try harder!
Day 18 – 03/18 …….200.4…… I’m just trying to stay safe from the virus and figure out how to eat carbs without gaining weight!
Day 19 – 03/19 …….200.8…… Then there’s that! Sheesh!
Day 20 – 03/20 …....201.3…… Gotta focus! Dawn, OMAD = one meal a day. Many people do this when doing a short Intermittent Fasting window like 20:4 . Sadly, my diabetes won’t allow me to eat just once without a severe glucose drop.
Day 21 – 03/21 …...202.1…… This weight definitely gets me motivated to get up off my fat *kitten* and start moving and eating right. I spent most of last night prep cooking and will be doing more today for my freezer. I’ve got this! Dawn, I forgot to add one more “s” word to the post above. Sexy!
Day 22 – 03/22 …...202.0…… I prep cooked a bit more last night. I also hope to do more prep cooking later. When I have many choices in my freezer, I will have no excuses. More movement is planned for today too!

I like to weigh every day to keep me accountable - knowing that I will be weighing in the morning sometimes stops me from continuing to eat at night : - )
My name is Dawn. 59 year old female.
I live in South East British Columbia Canada
MFP start date October 29.18 - SW 191
Ultimate goal weight - 112 - 115

December result: Gain 3.1 pounds
Day 71, Fri, 1/31: 159.7
January result: Gain 0.2 pounds
Day 72, Sat, 2/1: 158.1 - exactly the same as Day 1 of 100 days
Day 100, Sat, 2/29: 154.4
February result: Loss 3.7
Total loss over 100 days: 3.7 pounds
Parking here until there is another post for March 01 - June 07
Day 1 - Sunday March 01.20 - 155.3 - up almost a pound from yesterday.
Day 2 - Monday March 02.20 - 156.8 - up again, but well within my goals. Going to stay diligent.
Day 3 - Tuesday March 03.20 - 156.5
Day 4 - Wednesday March 04.20 - 156.1
Day 5 - Thursday March 05.20 - 154.8
Day 06 - Friday March 06.20 - 155.5
Day 07 - Saturday March 07.20 - 155.2
Day 08 - Sunday March 08.20 - 156.4 - Ate like a normal person, this always trips me up. I will get back at it.
Day 09 - Monday March 09.20 - 156.7 - wrong direction, maybe tomorrow it will even out
Day 10 - Tuesday March 10.20 - 157.2 - No reason for the gain, hoping that it will even out soon.
Day 11 - Wednesday March 11.20 - 155.3 - That is better
Day 12 - Thursday March 12.20 - 154.2 - Much better
Day 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 14 - Saturday March 14.20 - 153.6 - On track for a better 100 days than the last, in which I lost 3.7 pounds in 100 days. Still a very long way from my Goal, but feeling like it will keep coming down. 2.5 pounds away from a 40 pound loss now.
Day 15 - Sunday March 15.20 - 154.5 - I expect to be less tomorrow, slightly over (0.1 pound) from the end of the previous 100. Definitely feeling lean from all of the workouts yesterday, the scale is just not reflecting it.
Day 16 - Monday March 16.20 - Not putting in my weight today because I sort of broke my routine, had 2 glasses of water and 2 coffees before weighing. Let's just say it was high, and I don't think accurate, so I will call it a DNW day.
Day 17 - Tuesday March 17.20 - 156.7 - The wrong direction. I will stay diligent.
Day 18 - Wednesday March 18.20 - 156.1 - I almost threw in the towel for all of this yesterday, I got so discouraged about everything going on in the world, and not feeling like putting any more time and energy to this process wherein I measure, weigh, work out daily etc. to lose an insignificant amount of weight that can return in 1 day after months of fighting so hard to lose 1 pound. I do feel better today and will stick at it.
Day 19 - Thursday March 19.20 - 155.4 - A little better, many calories burned yesterday, and slept in today.
Day 20 - Friday March 20.20 - 156.5 - An expected jump, I had a Ribs dinner last night - self-indulgence.
Day 21 - Saturday March 21.20 - 157.2 - Still being indulgent, and the scale is showing it. Not quite motivated just yet. Being diligent affords me such miniscule weight loss, just kind of hit a wall with it. I will soon need to get back on track.
Day 22 - Sunday March 22.20 - 157.8 - Time for me to get back on track. I have been burning off close to 1,000 calories per day with exercise, so have been in the green, but I have indulged enough now. Time to get working for those S's : - )
Day 23 - Monday March 23.20 - 156.6 - better. Even though my eating was off for a few days, I kept up burning lots of calories with exercise, hoping this downward trend continues.
Day 24 - Tuesday March 24.20
Day 25 - Wednesday March 25.20
Day 26 - Thursday March 26.20
Day 27 - Friday March 27.20
Day 28 - Saturday March 28.20

Day 23 – 03/23 …...201.7…… It’s a crazy world out there right now. We are not allowed outside in Michigan except for essentials such as food & pharmacy. All non-essential business closed down including all manufacturing. Wow. A little extra movement yesterday but not as much as I'd hoped.

Hey, thanks for joining us on this one @syreina
Gyms are closed in your area (as you mentioned) so it will be fun to see what you come up with for activity.
Which area of the country are you in?

I like to weigh every day to keep me accountable - knowing that I will be weighing in the morning sometimes stops me from continuing to eat at night : - )

Parking here until there is another post for March 01 - June 07
Day 1 - Sunday March 01.20 - 155.3 - up almost a pound from yesterday.
Day 2 - Monday March 02.20 - 156.8 - up again, but well within my goals. Going to stay diligent.
Day 3 - Tuesday March 03.20 - 156.5
Day 4 - Wednesday March 04.20 - 156.1
Day 5 - Thursday March 05.20 - 154.8
Day 06 - Friday March 06.20 - 155.5
Day 07 - Saturday March 07.20 - 155.2
Day 08 - Sunday March 08.20 - 156.4 - Ate like a normal person, this always trips me up. I will get back at it.
Day 09 - Monday March 09.20 - 156.7 - wrong direction, maybe tomorrow it will even out
Day 10 - Tuesday March 10.20 - 157.2 - No reason for the gain, hoping that it will even out soon.
Day 11 - Wednesday March 11.20 - 155.3 - That is better
Day 12 - Thursday March 12.20 - 154.2 - Much better
Day 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 14 - Saturday March 14.20 - 153.6 - On track for a better 100 days than the last, in which I lost 3.7 pounds in 100 days. Still a very long way from my Goal, but feeling like it will keep coming down. 2.5 pounds away from a 40 pound loss now.
Day 15 - Sunday March 15.20 - 154.5 - I expect to be less tomorrow, slightly over (0.1 pound) from the end of the previous 100. Definitely feeling lean from all of the workouts yesterday, the scale is just not reflecting it.
Day 16 - Monday March 16.20 - Not putting in my weight today because I sort of broke my routine, had 2 glasses of water and 2 coffees before weighing. Let's just say it was high, and I don't think accurate, so I will call it a DNW day.
Day 17 - Tuesday March 17.20 - 156.7 - The wrong direction. I will stay diligent.
Day 18 - Wednesday March 18.20 - 156.1 - I almost threw in the towel for all of this yesterday, I got so discouraged about everything going on in the world, and not feeling like putting any more time and energy to this process wherein I measure, weigh, work out daily etc. to lose an insignificant amount of weight that can return in 1 day after months of fighting so hard to lose 1 pound. I do feel better today and will stick at it.
Day 19 - Thursday March 19.20 - 155.4 - A little better, many calories burned yesterday, and slept in today.
Day 20 - Friday March 20.20 - 156.5 - An expected jump, I had a Ribs dinner last night - self-indulgence.
Day 21 - Saturday March 21.20 - 157.2 - Still being indulgent, and the scale is showing it. Not quite motivated just yet. Being diligent affords me such minuscule weight loss, just kind of hit a wall with it. I will soon need to get back on track.
Day 22 - Sunday March 22.20 - 157.8 - Time for me to get back on track. I have been burning off close to 1,000 calories per day with exercise, so have been in the green, but I have indulged enough now. Time to get working for those S's : - )
Day 23 - Monday March 23.20 - 156.6 - better. Even though my eating was off for a few days, I kept up burning lots of calories with exercise, hoping this downward trend continues.
Day 24 - Tuesday March 24.20 - 156.0 - Still undoing that few days of indulging, lots of working out even when I was indulging, but now I have my eating back to where it needs to be. I keep looking at that number from Friday the 13th and knowing that if I saw it once I can hit it again.
Day 25 - Wednesday March 25.20 - 156.3 - Questionable food choices yesterday, hopefully this doesn't impact tomorrow's weigh in too, but it might.
Day 26 - Thursday March 26.20
Day 27 - Friday March 27.20

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ March 1, 2020 through June 7, 2020
My Name is Donna, Age 59. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Day 01 – 03/01 …….199.8……A long way to go….. Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 03/02 ….…201.6…… Emergency travel yesterday with limited menu choices and limited movement.
Day 03 – 03/03 …….201.6…… Prep cooked last night.
Day 04 – 03/04 .…..200.8…… A nice drop after a well planned day. Why can’t I do this everyday?
Day 05 – 03/05 ….…200.6…… Stayed the course, even with a special dinner & dessert for DGS#1 & DGS#2.
Day 06 – 03/06 …….200.3…… Very S..L..O..W.. Progress, but I’ll take what I can get! Diet & exercise on point yesterday. Praying that I will be just as strong today!
Day 07 – 03/07 ….…200.1…… A slow but rewarding process.
Day 08 – 03/08 …….201.0…… Ate all the right low cal & low carb foods. I just ate to much of them. Control….Donna…..Control!
Day 09 – 03/09 …….200.2…… Better. It was not a perfect day but I realized that I don’t have to be perfect to be great.
Day 10 – 03/10 …….199.8…… I was hoping for a bigger drop, a whoosh even because I burned over 3200 calories yesterday and walked over 9 miles/over 21,000 steps. I stayed within calorie and carb range and my water intake was not too bad. However, no TMI so maybe that’s it. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess.
Day 11 – 03/11 …….199.8…… Very tired today. So far the food plan is going well but I am giving myself a self-imposed rest day from just about everything. Sit on butt day, for the most part!
Day 12 – 03/12 …….199.8…… Holding it steady but need a drop on the scale. Patience is a virtue for sure!
Day 13 – 03/13 …….200.2……
Day 14 – 03/14 …….199.9……
Day 15 – 03/15 …….200.1……Wow, the days ARE following the dates. Cool observation Dawn! @cpanus I hope you are continuing to do well following your surgery. Thinking of you!
Day 16 – 03/16 …….200.7…… My scale went up and it was from bad choices, not pre-weigh liquids. : / Yesterday was overboard by a bit. Today by a lot. Stress eating for sure. It’s gonna stop tomorrow.
Day 17 – 03/17 …….200.4…… I’ve got to try harder!
Day 18 – 03/18 …….200.4…… I’m just trying to stay safe from the virus and figure out how to eat carbs without gaining weight!
Day 19 – 03/19 …….200.8…… Then there’s that! Sheesh!
Day 20 – 03/20 …....201.3…… Gotta focus! Dawn, OMAD = one meal a day. Many people do this when doing a short Intermittent Fasting window like 20:4 . Sadly, my diabetes won’t allow me to eat just once without a severe glucose drop.
Day 21 – 03/21 …...202.1…… This weight definitely gets me motivated to get up off my fat *kitten* and start moving and eating right. I spent most of last night prep cooking and will be doing more today for my freezer. I’ve got this! Dawn, I forgot to add one more “s” word to the post above. Sexy!
Day 22 – 03/22 …...202.0…… I prep cooked a bit more last night. I also hope to do more prep cooking later. When I have many choices in my freezer, I will have no excuses. More movement is planned for today too!
Day 23 – 03/23 …...201.7…… It’s a crazy world out there right now. We are not allowed outside in Michigan except for essentials such as food & pharmacy. All non-essential business closed down including all manufacturing. Wow. A little more movement yesterday but not as much as I’d hoped.
Day 24 – 03/24 .…..201.6……
Day 25 – 03/25 …...201.6…… I think I missed recording yesterday so I’ve updated. Spent yesterday shopping as the trucks came in. Delivered to children & grandchildren then got my butt back inside due to the mandatory stay-in order in my state (except for essential shopping). Welcome @Syreina. I think we all know each other from JGM10Days. So glad to have you. I love looking at a clearly laid out 100 days so this is a small but mighty challenge which I hope will build.

@dawnbgethealthy I live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas. We are also under a shelter-in-place order. Although, I am upset that my apartment complex residents do not take social distancing seriously. My husband and I go for mini and long walks during the day - we are the only ones who move away from other people as they come near us.
We are both blessed and thankful that we have our jobs and can work from home.
@deepwoodslady What was JGM10Days again? Lol. Yes, I have seen you both in different forums. I think we are all in Lose 5lbs+ every month.
Happy to be here and feel welcomed.
How are you both holding up physically and mentally?

Day 20 – 03/20 …....201.3…… Gotta focus! Dawn, OMAD = one meal a day. Many people do this when doing a short Intermittent Fasting window like 20:4 . Sadly, my diabetes won’t allow me to eat just once without a severe glucose drop.
Day 21 – 03/21 …...202.1…… This weight definitely gets me motivated to get up off my fat *kitten* and start moving and eating right. I spent most of last night prep cooking and will be doing more today for my freezer. I’ve got this! Dawn, I forgot to add one more “s” word to the post above. Sexy!
Day 22 – 03/22 …...202.0…… I prep cooked a bit more last night. I also hope to do more prep cooking later. When I have many choices in my freezer, I will have no excuses. More movement is planned for today too!
Day 23 – 03/23 …...201.7…… It’s a crazy world out there right now. We are not allowed outside in Michigan except for essentials such as food & pharmacy. All non-essential business closed down including all manufacturing. Wow. A little more movement yesterday but not as much as I’d hoped.
Day 24 – 03/24 .…..201.6……
Day 25 – 03/25 …...201.6…… I think I missed recording yesterday so I’ve updated. Spent yesterday shopping as the trucks came in. Delivered to children & grandchildren then got my butt back inside due to the mandatory stay-in order in my state (except for essential shopping). Welcome @Syreina. I think we all know each other from JGM10Days. So glad to have you. I love looking at a clearly laid out 100 days so this is a small but mighty challenge which I hope will build.

Parking here until there is another post for March 01 - June 07
Day 1 - Sunday March 01.20 - 155.3 - up almost a pound from yesterday.
Day 2 - Monday March 02.20 - 156.8 - up again, but well within my goals. Going to stay diligent.
Day 3 - Tuesday March 03.20 - 156.5
Day 4 - Wednesday March 04.20 - 156.1
Day 5 - Thursday March 05.20 - 154.8
Day 06 - Friday March 06.20 - 155.5
Day 07 - Saturday March 07.20 - 155.2
Day 08 - Sunday March 08.20 - 156.4 - Ate like a normal person, this always trips me up. I will get back at it.
Day 09 - Monday March 09.20 - 156.7 - wrong direction, maybe tomorrow it will even out
Day 10 - Tuesday March 10.20 - 157.2 - No reason for the gain, hoping that it will even out soon.
Day 11 - Wednesday March 11.20 - 155.3 - That is better
Day 12 - Thursday March 12.20 - 154.2 - Much better
Day 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 14 - Saturday March 14.20 - 153.6 - On track for a better 100 days than the last, in which I lost 3.7 pounds in 100 days. Still a very long way from my Goal, but feeling like it will keep coming down. 2.5 pounds away from a 40 pound loss now.
Day 15 - Sunday March 15.20 - 154.5 - I expect to be less tomorrow, slightly over (0.1 pound) from the end of the previous 100. Definitely feeling lean from all of the workouts yesterday, the scale is just not reflecting it.
Day 16 - Monday March 16.20 - Not putting in my weight today because I sort of broke my routine, had 2 glasses of water and 2 coffees before weighing. Let's just say it was high, and I don't think accurate, so I will call it a DNW day.
Day 17 - Tuesday March 17.20 - 156.7 - The wrong direction. I will stay diligent.
Day 18 - Wednesday March 18.20 - 156.1 - I almost threw in the towel for all of this yesterday, I got so discouraged about everything going on in the world, and not feeling like putting any more time and energy to this process wherein I measure, weigh, work out daily etc. to lose an insignificant amount of weight that can return in 1 day after months of fighting so hard to lose 1 pound. I do feel better today and will stick at it.
Day 19 - Thursday March 19.20 - 155.4 - A little better, many calories burned yesterday, and slept in today.
Day 20 - Friday March 20.20 - 156.5 - An expected jump, I had a Ribs dinner last night - self-indulgence.
Day 21 - Saturday March 21.20 - 157.2 - Still being indulgent, and the scale is showing it. Not quite motivated just yet. Being diligent affords me such minuscule weight loss, just kind of hit a wall with it. I will soon need to get back on track.
Day 22 - Sunday March 22.20 - 157.8 - Time for me to get back on track. I have been burning off close to 1,000 calories per day with exercise, so have been in the green, but I have indulged enough now. Time to get working for those S's : - )
Day 23 - Monday March 23.20 - 156.6 - better. Even though my eating was off for a few days, I kept up burning lots of calories with exercise, hoping this downward trend continues.
Day 24 - Tuesday March 24.20 - 156.0 - Still undoing that few days of indulging, lots of working out even when I was indulging, but now I have my eating back to where it needs to be. I keep looking at that number from Friday the 13th and knowing that if I saw it once I can hit it again.
Day 25 - Wednesday March 25.20 - 156.3 - Questionable food choices yesterday, hopefully this doesn't impact tomorrow's weigh in too, but it might.
Day 26 - Thursday March 26.20 - 156.0 - I have been out walking/hiking every day except for one. I want to keep this up because I feel like it is important for me to get out into nature.
Day 27 - Friday March 27.20 - 155.7 - Burning 900 calories per day through exercise many days.
Day 28 - Saturday March 28.20

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ March 1, 2020 through June 7, 2020
My Name is Donna, Age 59. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Day 01 – 03/01 …….199.8……A long way to go….. Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 03/02 ….…201.6…… Emergency travel yesterday with limited menu choices and limited movement.
Day 03 – 03/03 …….201.6…… Prep cooked last night.
Day 04 – 03/04 .…..200.8…… A nice drop after a well planned day. Why can’t I do this everyday?
Day 05 – 03/05 ….…200.6…… Stayed the course, even with a special dinner & dessert for DGS#1 & DGS#2.
Day 06 – 03/06 …….200.3…… Very S..L..O..W.. Progress, but I’ll take what I can get! Diet & exercise on point yesterday. Praying that I will be just as strong today!
Day 07 – 03/07 ….…200.1…… A slow but rewarding process.
Day 08 – 03/08 …….201.0…… Ate all the right low cal & low carb foods. I just ate to much of them. Control….Donna…..Control!
Day 09 – 03/09 …….200.2…… Better. It was not a perfect day but I realized that I don’t have to be perfect to be great.
Day 10 – 03/10 …….199.8…… I was hoping for a bigger drop, a whoosh even because I burned over 3200 calories yesterday and walked over 9 miles/over 21,000 steps. I stayed within calorie and carb range and my water intake was not too bad. However, no TMI so maybe that’s it. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess.
Day 11 – 03/11 …….199.8…… Very tired today. So far the food plan is going well but I am giving myself a self-imposed rest day from just about everything. Sit on butt day, for the most part!
Day 12 – 03/12 …….199.8…… Holding it steady but need a drop on the scale. Patience is a virtue for sure!
Day 13 – 03/13 …….200.2……
Day 14 – 03/14 …….199.9……
Day 15 – 03/15 …….200.1……Wow, the days ARE following the dates. Cool observation Dawn! @cpanus I hope you are continuing to do well following your surgery. Thinking of you!
Day 16 – 03/16 …….200.7…… My scale went up and it was from bad choices, not pre-weigh liquids. : / Yesterday was overboard by a bit. Today by a lot. Stress eating for sure. It’s gonna stop tomorrow.
Day 17 – 03/17 …….200.4…… I’ve got to try harder!
Day 18 – 03/18 …….200.4…… I’m just trying to stay safe from the virus and figure out how to eat carbs without gaining weight!
Day 19 – 03/19 …….200.8…… Then there’s that! Sheesh!
Day 20 – 03/20 …....201.3…… Gotta focus! Dawn, OMAD = one meal a day. Many people do this when doing a short Intermittent Fasting window like 20:4 . Sadly, my diabetes won’t allow me to eat just once without a severe glucose drop.
Day 21 – 03/21 …...202.1…… This weight definitely gets me motivated to get up off my fat *kitten* and start moving and eating right. I spent most of last night prep cooking and will be doing more today for my freezer. I’ve got this! Dawn, I forgot to add one more “s” word to the post above. Sexy!
Day 22 – 03/22 …...202.0…… I prep cooked a bit more last night. I also hope to do more prep cooking later. When I have many choices in my freezer, I will have no excuses. More movement is planned for today too!
Day 23 – 03/23 …...201.7…… It’s a crazy world out there right now. We are not allowed outside in Michigan except for essentials such as food & pharmacy. All non-essential business closed down including all manufacturing. Wow. A little more movement yesterday but not as much as I’d hoped.
Day 24 – 03/24 .…..201.6……
Day 25 – 03/25 …...201.6…… I think I missed recording yesterday so I’ve updated. Spent yesterday shopping as the trucks came in. Delivered to children & grandchildren then got my butt back inside due to the mandatory stay-in order in my state (except for essential shopping). Welcome @Syreina. I think we all know each other from JGM10Days. So glad to have you. I love looking at a clearly laid out 100 days so this is a small but mighty challenge which I hope will build.
Day 26 – 03/26 …...203.2…… Holy cow! Being on lockdown in the house is making me go crazy I think. What was I thinking?
Day 27 – 03/27 …...203.8…… Disasterous. I’ll be finishing the raking today which will finally burn some calories. I am allowed out to rake because of my “essential” business on my property. Now, if I can just watch my diet too then I will be back on my way!
