@deepwoodslady
I am not completely layed off yet from all of my jobs, but the extra time that I have gained has been good. I find more time for working out, cooking, and getting out on the trails.
I'm sure that you will get yourself into a good groove soon.1 -
@dawnbgethealthy Thanks for the support and belief in me. Everyday is "Day One" for me. It is still too cold and slippery on the trails, and quite frankly, I don't feel very "safe" out there with my health vulnerability. I'm prep cooking keto friendly foods & freezing them like crazy, NOW, just to eat them again consistently. Some recipes I love I cannot get the ingredients for, but I have been using that for an "excuse" to eat anything I want. I can do SOMETHING better than what I am doing. Even if it is following my calories more closely.
I appreciate your faith in me. Seeing everyone else improvise during this time reminds me that I can do better for myself. I hope that today will be a better day. My plan today is begin Day 1 of breaking the sugar addiction AGAIN, so that days 4, 5, 6 etc will be easier. It is cold and rainy today but I will get more indoor movement.
Thanks for helping re-inspire me today Dawn!2 -

“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!
Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!

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

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 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 most days.
Day 28 - Saturday March 28.20 - 155.5 - Didn't make good choices yesterday, I will have to be very "good" today.
Day 29 - Sunday March 29.20 - 156.7 - Up today, but had 700 calories left over (in the green) so I am hoping that it is a temporary jump.
Day 30 - Monday March 30.20
Day 31 - Tuesday March 31.201 -

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 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.

Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!
Day 29 – 03/29 ..….203.5…… No Change. Diet was much improved (though not perfect) but calorie burn was very low. I did a lot of home cleaning projects and such, but those don’t require much actual walking. More working in place. Today I (fearfully) clean cabins, working around long-term customers too. I’m very nervous. I have gloves but no masks. I am making one for myself and son with my breast cancer bandanas and hair ties. I have ordered more bandanas.

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 most days.
Day 28 - Saturday March 28.20 - 155.5 - Didn't make good choices yesterday, I will have to be very "good" today.
Day 29 - Sunday March 29.20 - 156.7 - Up today, but had 700 calories left over (in the green) so I am hoping that it is a temporary jump.
Day 30 - Monday March 30.20 - 155.2 - I made nachos, but only ate half. This has been a challenging month for everyone to try to lose weight.
Day 31 - Tuesday March 31.20
March results:1 -
Too bad that you don't have a helmet with a plexi-glass shield @deepwoodslady
I guess the goal is to not let anything in to the eyes, nose, mouth - droplets. Glad that you have gloves.
I hope that you got your tenants to move outside before you had to clean their rooms/cabins.
I also hope that you don't have to do this too frequently.1 -
@dawnbgethealthy My son & I both wear glasses so that helps. Our homemade masks seemed to work good. A little hard to breathe since I made the masks rather thick, but I think I can perfect it as we go along on this crazy ride. Real masks may become available later after the medical field needs are filled. Factories here in Michigan (GM, Chrysler, Ford) are turning over operations to make masks and respirators, so there is hope that those of us who serve the public will also soon be able to get more professional supplies. My main goal is not just to protect myself and son, but to not carry unknown germs from one room to another.
I have asked that the guests step outside since the 6 foot rule is hard to abide by in some cases when inside. Most don't mind. Many smoke, so they go outside for that anyway (no smoking allowed in any hotel rooms in Michigan).
We are all staying well so far at my little corner of the woods. I hope you continue to do the same.
Now, for diet and exercise........2 -
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!
Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!
Day 29 – 03/29 ..….203.5…… No Change. Diet was much improved (though not perfect) but calorie burn was very low. I did a lot of home cleaning projects and such, but those don’t require much actual walking. More working in place. Today I (fearfully) clean cabins, working around long-term customers too. I’m very nervous. I have gloves but no masks. I am making one for myself and son with my breast cancer bandanas and hair ties. I have ordered more bandanas.
Day 30 – 03/30 ..….203.5…… No change again. I know why. I didn’t quite work hard enough for it.

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!
Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!
Day 29 – 03/29 ..….203.5…… No Change. Diet was much improved (though not perfect) but calorie burn was very low. I did a lot of home cleaning projects and such, but those don’t require much actual walking. More working in place. Today I (fearfully) clean cabins, working around long-term customers too. I’m very nervous. I have gloves but no masks. I am making one for myself and son with my breast cancer bandanas and hair ties. I have ordered more bandanas.
Day 30 – 03/30 ..….203.5…… No change again. I know why. I didn’t quite work hard enough for it.
Day 31 – 03/31 ..….203.5…… Wow. No change again. Feeling pretty stuck. I got a lot more movement (steps) in yesterday, the diet still left room for improvement. My plan for today: I have already pre-logged my food for the entire day (which I never do) so I will try to use it as a blueprint and follow it to the tee. I must also try to keep my steps up! @Syreina Thanks for the words of encouragement.

March results: Kind of a bust, 1.6 pounds gained

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 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.

Wow! Good for you. Can't say that I don't hate that young people, and guys, lose so much faster than us older females : - )0 -
Okay @deepwoodslady lets have a better month : - )
BTW, just heard that face masks are most dangerous when you go to remove them. Thought of you.0 -
@dawnbgethealthy I didn't know that about the face masks, but it makes perfect sense. Thanks for the info!
Yes, ladies, let's make April great! I want to look good in my shorts (like I did last summer and the summer before). I've got my work cut out for me, but I can do this. Especially when I'm not alone. I've done wonderful all day, but am entering that mysterious nighttime twilight zone when the bingeing can start. Sometimes, it can also be a time when my glucose drops and I panic. I will just have to keep my eye on the prize and hope the Diet Gods (and the Almighty God) gets me through. Like the old country song by Tammy Wynette "Help me make it through the night." Here's Hoping.1 -

Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!
Day 29 – 03/29 ..….203.5…… No Change. Diet was much improved (though not perfect) but calorie burn was very low. I did a lot of home cleaning projects and such, but those don’t require much actual walking. More working in place. Today I (fearfully) clean cabins, working around long-term customers too. I’m very nervous. I have gloves but no masks. I am making one for myself and son with my breast cancer bandanas and hair ties. I have ordered more bandanas.
Day 30 – 03/30 ..….203.5…… No change again. I know why. I didn’t quite work hard enough for it.
Day 31 – 03/31 ..….203.5…… Wow. No change again. Feeling pretty stuck. I got a lot more movement (steps) in yesterday, the diet still left room for improvement. My plan for today: I have already pre-logged my food for the entire day (which I never do) so I will try to use it as a blueprint and follow it to the tee. I must also try to keep my steps up!
Weight Loss in March……………….. 3.7 lbs GAINED
Total Accumulated Weight Loss…..3.7 lbs Gained. More and better changes coming!!!
Day 32 – 04/01…….203.2…… 0.3 down. It’s a start to new & better things!
Day 33 – 04/02 …...203.2…… I am so happy not to see a gain. I got in a 70 minute walk along my property yesterday and kept my diet exactly on point until the massive sugar drop and deep hunger (meant to make you eat and save you from Diabetic coma or shock) kicked in. I try to handle it well, but when you are in the middle of drowning, your natural human survival instinct is to get your head above the water. Shoveling in food is flailing and getting your head above the water and saving yourself quickly before you drown. That is the best way I can describe the feeling and the response. Sadly, if it happens again tonight, my body will react the same. Perhaps if someone else were here with me to help pull me up out of the water safely, but there is not. Only my Autistic son who panics. I know that my body is trying to readjust to my new attempts at weight loss with the lower calorie counts. I got through this when I first started my journey in 2018 and I will get through it again. I just have to give my body time for the adjustments, and as my WEIGHT COMES OFF, it all improves, even the glucose levels. Walking the tight rope here.

Wow! Good for you. Can't say that I don't hate that young people, and guys, lose so much faster than us older females : - )
I'm not sure how it works exactly between ages, but I've been stalling weight for months and it is finally just dropping thanks to a change in diet. I think a lot of it may be water weight. It may seem steep and fast but it will slow down once my system adjusts I would say. If it doesn't, I will be surprised.

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 13 - Friday March 13.20 - 152.1 - Wow, all of the hard work is showing some progress! New low.
Day 31 - Tuesday March 31.20 - 156.9 - burned lots of calories, consumed under calories but still showed an uptick on the scale.
March results: Kind of a bust, 1.6 pounds gained
Day 32 04.01.20 - 155.4 - I think that March was hard for everyone. Onward to April.
Day 33 04.02.20 - 154.8 - Seeing a drop in the scale motivates me more than anything else at all. Almost back to end of February weight. That 0.4 is my next goal.
Day 34 Friday 04.03.20 - 155.4 - No sleep last night. I weighed myself and was up 3 pounds, so went back to bed for some snoozes listening to the bedside radio. Really on track, so hoping to see a drop tomorrow.

So sorry to hear about the blood sugar drops. Very scary.
Do you try to eat small amounts more often to keep it level?
Really glad that you got out for a walk.0 -
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!
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!
Day 28 – 03/28 …...203.5…… Re-inspired. Praying for a better day in my journey. Praying even harder for all the families and industries hurt by Coronavirus. Let’s keeping sticking together folks!
Day 29 – 03/29 ..….203.5…… No Change. Diet was much improved (though not perfect) but calorie burn was very low. I did a lot of home cleaning projects and such, but those don’t require much actual walking. More working in place. Today I (fearfully) clean cabins, working around long-term customers too. I’m very nervous. I have gloves but no masks. I am making one for myself and son with my breast cancer bandanas and hair ties. I have ordered more bandanas.
Day 30 – 03/30 ..….203.5…… No change again. I know why. I didn’t quite work hard enough for it.
Day 31 – 03/31 ..….203.5…… Wow. No change again. Feeling pretty stuck. I got a lot more movement (steps) in yesterday, the diet still left room for improvement.

Weight Loss in March……………….. 3.7 lbs GAINED
Total Accumulated Weight Loss…..3.7 lbs Gained. More and better changes coming!!!
Day 32 – 04/01…….203.2…… 0.3 down. It’s a start to new & better things!
Day 33 – 04/02 …...203.2…… I am so happy not to see a gain. I got in a 70 minute walk along my property yesterday and kept my diet exactly on point until the massive sugar drop and deep hunger (meant to make you eat and save you from Diabetic coma or shock) kicked in. I try to handle it well, but when you are in the middle of drowning, your natural human survival instinct is to get your head above the water. Shoveling in food is flailing and getting your head above the water and saving yourself quickly before you drown. That is the best way I can describe the feeling and the response. Sadly, if it happens again tonight, my body will react the same. Perhaps if someone else were here with me to help pull me up out of the water safely, but there is not.

@dawnbgethealthy My meals & snacks are already rather close together. That is because I try to practice Intermittent Fasting and do so about 95% or more of the time. Interestingly enough, my sugar never drops during my IF during the day (it should drop when I don't eat). It is always about 2-3 hours before bed and within an hour or two of my last meal or snack. I honestly think it has a lot to do with the exercise. Exercise and walking are EXACTLY how you lower your sugar when it's too high. If you go to the hospital with a huge sugar spike, they start walking you to bring it down. I think I just have to readjust to lower cals & carbs again, readjust to regular walking & exercise and mainly, get my WEIGHT BACK DOWN. It's seriously a tightrope. When it happens too often, I take away one of my diabetes pills and that usually levels it off. When it starts getting too high, I put the pill back on. I know that is manipulating it, but it's impossible to do permanent changes (with the doctor) until we see a regular pattern. This morning my glucose was 328 and was lit up in bright red as an emergency. (I did have a sugary snack last night). I may be getting high also from taking some medication away. So for the next few days I will add it back in and see what happens. I really just need to stick to an eating routine so I can get the REAL PICTURE. I swear I am trying. When I doing good, I'm actually doing GREAT. But when I suck........ ugggg0
