100 Days of Accountability 7/14-10/21I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.
Female, Age 60, 5’3”
Challenge Starting Weight: 205 (7/13)
Challenge Goal: <195
History & Goals
Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
* 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195
* Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
* Onederland: 199
* Weigh less than DH: 206 (April 2021) ✔️:)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)Day 1: Wed, 7/14: 207.0 Walked .9 + 1.75 miles, swimming, 1565 cal, 68 net carbs, AF. Hiking in Brazos State Park & swimming to entertain my daughter-in-law’s 5 yr old niece that is visiting. Came too close to an alligator! Wow that is a strange & disappointing jump up on the scale this morning! Could sweet potato fries do that much damage at lunch?
Day 2: Thurs, 7/15: 207.2 Walked 4.5 miles, bike 30 min, squats, hand weights, cal, net carbs, 1 Torchy’s Tini. Chili for lunch and Torchy’s for dinner. Walked the dog to my home owners’ assoc. local lap pool (heated during the winter) to see if my key card still works which was much further than I thought but a nice walk (better than jumping in the car!). It is still active so I guess I need to consider adding swimming laps to my routine. The dog & I were both exhausted walking in the heat but we beat the rain! Need to make a point to get out earlier in the morning.
Day 3: Fri, 7/16: 207.4 WI at 4am. Walk 2 + 1.3 miles, weeding/gardening, 2187 cal, 141 net carbs, AF (Neon Zebra margarita mocktail). Pizza for lunch & quesadillas for dinner. Need to clean up my meal planning.
Day 4: Sat, 7/17: 206.2 Walk 1 + 1.3 miles, 1892 cal, 95 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
1st Week Goal Weight: 204.x Repeating goal until I hit it
1st Week Actual Weight: 206.2 (7 day avg 206.1)
1st Week Weight Loss: +1.2
Not even close. I was at 205 the day before the challenge started and it should have been easy peasy to make a 204.x goal. But on day 1 my weight skyrocketed. Finally got it going back down. Now to continue breaking through that 205 barrier.
Day 5: Sun, 7/18: 207.0 Walk 1.3 miles , 1511 cal, 83 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Nice morning breakfast outside then farmers market with DD & her husband & dogs. A pretty lazy day but did throw out more stuff as I anticipate a possible move. Also sorted more of my kids’ medical, scouting and school records along with their birth, baptism, lifeguarding & other certificates to pass along to them. The idea of moving elsewhere away from the kids and all the community I’ve built up over the past 30 years in Houston is starting to stress me out. Drinking more, not paying attention to the meal planning, not sleeping well (dreams of what if) and in general riddled with anxiety.
Day 6: Mon, 7/19: 205.9 Walked 3.2 miles, 1480 cal, 76 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Good day. Kids came over to cook burgers for lunch and chat.
Day 7: Tues, 7/20: 207.1 Walked 3.25 miles, gardened, 1509 cal, 122 net carbs, AF. Lunch & dinner with friends first Thai and then Mediterranean so I’m assuming that this is sodium or hidden calories since I was in the green 246 calories yesterday. Plan is to stay on track today and drink LOTS of water.
Day 8: Wed, 7/21: 204.9 Walk 4.5 + 1.3 miles, bike 30 min, squats & hand weights, 1252 cal, 110 net carbs, AF. Big swoosh from yesterday which was an obvious sodium uptick. Now to keep this below 205 for the rest of the week!
Day 9: Thurs, 7/22: 204.3 Walk 3 + 1.3 miles, garden, 1161 cal, 49 net carbs, AF. Tried Kombucha for the first time. Kevita sparkling Lemon Cayenne. Nice change of pace!
Day 10: Fri, 7/23: 204.6 Walk 3.3 miles, garden, 1439 cal, 77 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Today I’m meeting an old friend to walk the paths on Buffalo Bayou downtown Houston, Cisterns tour, and picnic!
Day 11: Sat, 7/24: 204.5 Walked 2 + 3.4 + .6 miles Buffalo Bayou, 1564 cal, 101 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Wonderful active day! Closed all my rings plus overlapped the rings on the Apple Watch. 19550 steps!
2nd Week Goal Weight: 204.x Repeating goal until I hit it
2nd Week Actual Weight: 204.5 (7 day avg 205.5)
2nd Week Weight Loss: 1.7
Nailed it! 4 days in a row
Day 12: Sun, 7/25: 205.0 Walk 3.2 + .6 miles, 1538 cal, 120 net carbs, AF. Grimaldi’s pizza … need I say more? Drinking water!
Day 13: Mon, 7/26: 204.6 Walk 3.6 miles, bike 30 min, squats. plank & hand weights, 1649 cal, 64 net carbs, AF. Woke up too early and I was exhausted all day. Tried on every pant in my closet which was interesting. I’m pear shape size 18. I already threw out the size 20 & 22 pants. Put everything that was too small in another area to pull out when I’m 10 pounds lighter because though size 16 fits it doesn’t look great. I’m really apprehensive about this 1 hr Strong and Fit total body workout I signed up to take once per week. But I think it will be good for my bones & muscles as I age and hopefully it will help shape my legs, tummy and arms!
Day 14: Tues, 7/27: 204.6 Walk 3.2 + .6 miles, 14200 steps, total body workout class 1 hr, 1552 cal, 103 net carbs, AF. Survived my first Strong & Fit class one-hour total body workout increases muscle strength and endurance by using light weights and high repetition. Lots of lunges, squats, planks and such with tons of arm movement. Sore this morning.
Day 15: Wed, 7/28: 205.2 Walk 4.6 + 1.4 miles, bike 30 min, 2044 cal, 120 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Almost 500 cal in snacks during the day then changed dinner plans and went to a favorite Italian restaurant. Undid all my great efforts exercising in the morning.
Day 16: Thurs, 7/29: 205.0 Walk 2.3 miles, swim 400m, 2171 cal, 84 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. I’m really starting to feel all the muscles in my body adding the strength training Monday and then swimming Wednesday on top of my regular walking dog 100miles/month and bike 1x/wk.
Day 17: Fri, 7/30: 205.6 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walk 2 miles, long 5+ hr car ride, 11602 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Got up and walked at 6am yesterday since I knew I was taking my mom to the doctor before driving to the camp. It all makes for a very long day.
Day 18: Sat, 7/31: 205.4 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 miles, power washed the dock, 1789 cal, 108 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Took mom to the rehab center for her wrist and a lady behind us fell … took 3 people to get her up. Then neighbor at the camp fell hitting her head. She is 101 years old. Helped her until ambulance was able to make it out to our remote location. Then when her husband brought her back home he called again for me to help get her into bed. I did not sleep well. After seeing these 2 fall I REALLY want to lose weight. Being old, obese and not very mobile is not in my vision of my future. Ready to tackle August and lose more weight.

I’ll take it!
Day 26: Sun, 8/8: 203.1 Walk 4.75 + .6 miles, Bike 30 min, 1569 cal, 68 net carbs, 3 wine. Tackled a long walk early in the day to make up for my lack of progress toward 100 miles in August AND try to get back down to 202.x.

Day 29: Wed, 8/11: 202.2 Walked 3 miles, Bike 30 min, 1415 cal, 83 net carbs, AF. Started planning a road trip for October up to TN & NC!

Day 30: Thurs, 8/12: 202.1 Walked 3.4 + 1.3 miles, 1588 cal, 137 net carbs, AF. More planning for our trip this fall as well as making plans to remodel & repair our home.
Day 31: Fri, 8/13: 202.0 Walked 3 + 1.3 miles, 1537 cal, 107 net carbs, AF. Switched up my daily nutrition goals and target calories. We’ll see how this plays out over the next week.

Day 32: Sat, 8/14: 201.6 Walked 3.3 + .7 miles, swam laps 400m, treaded water 7 min, 1543 cal, 85 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Still eating more than the new target of 1300 cal but I’m definitely burning extra as well.
Do you eat your exercise calories?
I seem to eat at least half of mine each day usually as a snack. Trying to cut out the treats/something sweet after the meal but not successfully. This was never an issue before since I’m not a chocolate eater and normally ignore everything including ice cream but never ignore pie. Though for the last year … I’ve craved something sweet, choc and even ice cream … hmmm where did that habit come from?
5th Week Goal Weight: <202
5th Week Actual Weight: 201.6 (7 day avg 202.37)
5th Week Weight Loss: 2.1
Inching down a little each day/week toward 200! Next week is going to be really challenging since I have social events M-Th night at restaurants. I need to look up the menus and figure out a game plan.
Day 33: Sun, 8/15: 202.0 Walked 3.2 miles with my DD & her dogs, 1808 cal, 100 net carbs, 1 glass wine. In the red calorie wise so not surprised by the uptick on the scale. Wedding shower which included cake then my kids came over for dinner. Definitely what I would call a food day though I spent most of the time talking to friends and family.
Day 34: Mon, 8/16: 201.8 Walk 3 miles, Bike 30 min, 1325 cal, 113 net carbs (biscotti at breakfast & rye bread on sandwich blew my carb budget
Day 35: Tues, 8/17: 202.9 Walked 3.4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1514 cal, 95 net carbs, AF. Book club. Chose wisely at restaurant (chicken kabob, tomato cucumber salad, 1/2 cup rice, water) and still got a bump up. This was the easiest restaurant for the week to plan & execute. First of 4 nights out. Hmmm
Day 36: Wed, 8/18: 201.6 Walked 2 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1049 cal, 78 net carbs, 1 glass wine. Evening event where my dinner consisted of a few appetizers … mini crab cakes & pot stickers.
Day 37: Thurs, 8/19: 202.9 Walked 3 miles, 1321 cal, 110 net carbs, AF. Uptick from pizza & tacos? Woke up thirsty with a salty taste in my mouth. Fasting this morning with DH since he has a liver scan today.
NSV: Vanity sizing probably but I ordered pants and shorts for walking in a couple of different sizes along with the new swimsuit from Lands End. I’m sending back the XL pants & shorts and the 18 swimsuit! Keeping the L and 16. 😊 That feels good.
Day 38: Fri, 8/20: 203.0 Walked 4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1590 cal, 76 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Cooking class with friends where we made Fruit Empanadas, Paella Mixta, Tortilla Española. Exercised and fasted through breakfast but obviously not enough. Expected bump up after 4 evenings in a row eating at restaurants with friends. Gearing up for damage control and not let this be an excuse to continue to backslide.
Day 39: Sat, 8/21: 204.6 Walked 4 miles, Swam 500m + treaded water 12 min, 2003 cal, 110 net carbs, 3 glasses wine, >100 oz water. Great exercise day but snacked on way to many nuts, fries at lunch & rice at dinner. But wow the continued rise in the scale is worrying me!
6th Week Goal Weight: 200.anything! With 4 evenings at restaurants I would be happy just to stay below 202.
6th Week Actual Weight: 204.6 (7 day avg 202.7)
6th Week Weight Loss: +3
Wrong direction. I need to turn this wagon around.
Day 40: Sun, 8/22: 203.6 Walked 4.5 + .5 miles, 1568 cal, 71 net carbs, AF. Planning fall road trip and kitchen remodel. My best friend has Covid running rampant in her family that live in Sulphur Louisiana starting early last week. Her vaccinated uncle passed away Friday & her unvaccinated brother is in the hospital. Both of their families now all have it as well. My unvaccinated DIL’s 2 brothers (age 24) in Lafayette Louisiana got it last weekend. One brother had it last summer but this time it is much worse. They were around my son & his wife over last weekend but they are both vaccinated and tested negative. Scary how fast it hits & spreads.
Day 41: Mon, 8/23: 203.5 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1521 cal, 110 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lazy day.
Day 42: Tues, 8/24: 203.7 Walked 3 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1656 cal, 156 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Cousin came in from Florida and we went to my sister’s for crawfish étouffée and wine … but I insisted on going to my exercise class before meeting up with them.
No swimming laps for a couple of weeks since they closed the olympic size lap pool for maintenance.
Thinking about signing up for twice per week strength classes in September to prep for hiking plans in Oct. The lunge part of the routine has made me much better at going up and down steps at home.
Day 43: Wed, 8/25: 201.9 Walked 2.4 miles, 1255 cal, 117 net carbs, AF. Walked first thing in the morning, breakfast, donated blood & cleaned out a few kitchen cabinets … all before lunch! Then yard work and more cabinets in the afternoon.
Day 44: Thurs, 8/26: 203.1 Walked 3.6 +1 miles, gardening, 1794 cal, 143 net carbs, AF. Errand day in the afternoon … library, dry cleaners, groceries, gas, and tried on tons of bras until I found my new favorite.
NSV: New sports bras & bras ✔️(Aug 2021)
Day 45: Fri, 8/27: 203.6 Walked 1.3 miles, 2108 cal, 135 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Scan of leg veins to determine swelling in one ankle + 1st shot of Shingrix (shingles) Vaccine. Needless to say eating fried chicken for lunch and then Italian dinner out did not soothe my feelings or help my progress on the scale. Rain and low energy yesterday and today.
Day 46: Sat, 8/28: 203.0 Walked 3.2 + .7 miles, 1496 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Headache & fatigue kicked my butt after the Thursday shingles vaccine … read & slept a ton. Feeling better this morning.

7th Week Actual Weight: 203.0 (7 day avg 203.2)
7th Week Weight Loss: -1.6
Posting a loss this week but disappointed since I let the 201.x slip away and I’m stuck at a higher weight than I wish. Back to the habits that work!
Day 47: Sun, 8/29: 203.1 No Exercise … worked on design to remodel the entire downstairs of our house instead with DD who is a commercial interior designer. Structural engineer last week said it was possible to remove all the walls and posts that we considering as well open up the rooms to each other more than they are already. 2162 cal, 114 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
Day 48: Mon, 8/30: 203.0 Walked 3.8 + 1, 1402 cal, 81 net carbs, AF. Cancelled plans with friends to dine out since my friend’s family has many in the hospital with covid and DH was not feeling well. Finished reading The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Harmel.
Day 49: Tues, 8/31: 203.7 Walked 3.25 + 1 miles, 1568 cal, 172 net carbs, AF. Walked to the library to drop off my book Then another short walk in the evening after dinner with DH. FINISHED my 100 miles for August! I’m walking on the 31st anyway. Scale bumped up due to terrible choices for meals … breakfast - waffles & sausage; lunch - spaghetti & salad; dinner - Salisbury steak w/ rice & gravy & green beans. Few veggies and lots of carbs.
Day 50: Wed, 9/1: 204.6 Walked 2.4 miles, 2257 cal, 141 net carbs, 1 glass of wine. Slice of Berry Chantilly Cake on top of a late dinner. DH’s sister unexpectedly drove in to stay with us … celebrated her birthday which is Friday since we rarely see her and it was a treat. Not surprised that the scale jumped right up!
Day 51: Thurs, 9/2: 204.3 No morning exercise, feeling blah, walked 1 mile in the evening, 1730 cal, 130 net carbs, 1 glass wine w/ frozen pizza. DH met with allergist over Zoom and he thinks we might have covid … constant headaches for days w/ fatigue, tightness in DH’s chest … prescribed Prednisone for DH. Went to 8 local pharmacies and they were out of the rapid covid test (BinaxNOW). Scheduled PCR Covid 19 test Thursday morning but won’t have the results for 2-5 days. Our son has a rapid covid test and is dropping it off today. Good news is that we are both vaccinated. Not sure where we would have picked up covid … restaurant? grocery store? My sister that is an elementary teacher? Moved trip to fishing camp out to the next weekend.
Day 52: Fri, 9/3: 204.1 Walked 3 + 3.8 miles, 1588 cal, 116 net carbs, AF. Our son brought us a BinaxNOW covid home test kit … it was negative! So we both must have really bad colds since Sunday. The Prednisone is working for DH. Waiting for the PCR test results. Decided to skip strength training class this week since I didn’t want to expose the others in the class.
Day 53: Sat, 9/4: 203.9 Walked 3.4 + 1.3 miles, 2026 cal, 159 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine.
8th Week Goal Weight: 200.anything! But I would be happy just get back below 202.

Day 57: Wed, 9/8: 203.1 Walked 3.2 + 1.4 miles, Swam 400 meters, Treaded Water 7 min, 1402 cal, 78 net carbs, AF. The neighborhood olympic size lap pool reopened after being closed for 2 weeks for maintenance! Remaining calories in the green! This has been a tough 10 days with 6 in the red and only 4 in the green. No wonder I was gaining weight. Turning that ship around and focusing on staying in the green.
Day 58: Thurs, 9/9: 202.3 Walked 4 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1357 cal, 91 net carbs, AF. Didn’t accomplish much today outside of menu planning, groceries, cooking, and exercising … oh and reading “This Tender Land” by William Kent Krueger and listening to “The House in the Cerulean Sea” by TJ Klune. Headed to the fishing camp today for a long food & drink weekend where exercise is challenging. Before I leave planning to attend strong & fit strength class this morning.

I hope that the well company can permanently fix your well so that water flows normally and you can take that off your list of concerns.
I'm wanting pictures of the new outdoor steps from the mailbox up to your house ... so we can see that steep incline and the work recently done!
Oh and totally understand not wanting to step on the scale after a travel day! We drove 5 hrs yesterday and I ate okay snacking only on grapes ... but not enough water and there is something about travel that had my weight soar right back up. Crossing my fingers 🤞that it slips off as easily as it slipped on.
Continued prayers 🙏 for your health.3 -
@jayenguk & @Shannonsto
You are both killing it this 100 day round! The number on the scale keeps dropping ... very inspiring!2 -
@Lilylady3k
Steps are done except for a few touchups needed. However, he still needs to backfill the grass side (on both sides of the driveway and at the back) with dirt. And then we need to order more driveway gravel/limestone combo to back fill inside the driveway all along the steps. I had them "clean up" the opposite side and make it straighter so there's still a bit more work. He's been working around the rain by working inside on other projects at the same time. It is looking good! The steps follow the lay of the land. He could change the grade under them by digging, but he couldn't change the grade of the whole yard (all sloped down and toward the driveway too), nor could he change the grade of the driveway itself. That made it more technical than it looks and changed the size of some of the steps but it still turned out nicely. Next year I will decide what to do to make it prettier.2 -

Day 50 – 09/01 …..182.8…..(Trend weight 187.8)
Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 10 pounds but I am skeptical. I’ll change this on Sunday to keep it realistic.
Day 51 – 09/02 …..185.2…..(Trend weight 187.5)
Day 52 – 09/03 …..187.5…..(Trend weight 187.7) There are those extra calories showing up. I should have skipped that MASSIVE piece of cheesecake but no looking back! Back home and on track today. I plan a great day. 3 hours and 2 minutes of sleep last night. No enough water yesterday. No TMI today. Weigh in was less than 5 hours after my last food (that happens with so little sleep and such a long day). I suspect tomorrow will be better. Cement for the 80 foot set of steps down to the mailbox today is being poured by a company and being leveled by my handymen. Exciting day! I think the cabin I rent out is also being painted today unless plans changed while I was away. Progress…….
Day 53 – 09/04 …..187.5…..(Trend weight 187.8) Yesterday I found out that my ex-sister-in-law that I’ve known for 46 years died of Covid in South Carolina. She was fully vaccinated and had just turned 64. She was immuno-compromised. Her daughter found her unresponsive in her home (she lived alone). She was alive, but was later determined to be brain dead. She was lucky enough to get a ventilator for a short time since they are scarce, but she was taken off all life support measures when it was determined she would never wake up and never go home. Please, even if vaccinated, mask up in those highly public places. More people love you and don’t want to lose you than you even realize. I spent all evening and night eating my emotions and moving into the 2nd phase of grief = anger. I am surprised the scale didn’t go up. Today I will try hard to be more mindful. The food binges changes nothing.
Day 54 – 09/05 …..188.2…..(Trend weight 187.8) I’ve got to get this train back on track before my trend weight changes. Those numbers are harder to get movement on and I don’t want to deal with that too. I ate 400 extra calories after I closed out MFP last night which put me in the red. I hadn’t planned well and was hungry and looking for comfort too. I have regret today. Lots of phone calls and texting yesterday. Not as much movement as I could have had. Today is the BBQ at my DD’s house for Labor Day. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, especially my grandkids so I’ll probably go but I would rather stay here in my pajamas all day and allow myself to be sad and angry. I don’t need the scale’s loud voice screaming at me tomorrow, so I’ll try to watch it today. However, no guarantees at a large holiday gathering.
Day 55 – 09/06 …..189.4…..(Trend weight 188.0) My well went out again this morning. Luckily I was able to complicate my handyman on his holiday and get him over to re-prime. Luckily my neighbor was gracious enough to let us use his hoses and spigot/water for the reprime, even though he has overnight friend and his girlfriend staying with them. Nothing like imposing on a bunch of very nice people! Scale is up again, cortisol levels are through the roof. 2 doctor appointments this week. Tomorrow for glucose that has been running dangerously high. The other involves travel to get 2 different CT scans (one with contrast and one without). This is for the liver check and the lung check due to some cancer concerns. Seriously, can things get any worse? Oh, yeah. And the funeral for ex-SIL is tomorrow halfway across the country. I can’t go and hate that too. Chin up Donna! The odds are in my favor that things can only get better from here. I’m going to start by having a great day full of movement and water (but not full of food). Have SOMETHING go right is what I need most right now. Control what we can, right?
Day 56 – 09/07 …..187.2…..(Trend weight 187.9) I stuck to a 1002 calorie diet yesterday and added in some extra walking. It made the difference! Onward but not forward. I prefer downward.
Day 57 – 09/08 …..187.6…..(Trend weight 187.9) My calories were in the green and I did well with planning. However, due to very severe rain, thunderstorms and hail, I was unable to get outside. Busy day with my SIL funeral. I was able to be there thanks to a live video. Lots of phone calls and texts later kept me busy. I hope today I can fit a little more fitness in. Possible rain again, but it may pass us.
Day 58 – 09/09 …..188.8……(Trend weight 187.9) I totally blew it last night after logging out of MFP. And now, today I travel for two CT scans. There will be dinner out and lots of inactivity. I may skip weighing in tomorrow because I just can’t take anymore stress at this point (and we all know I ALWAYS gain after travel). I will post weight on Saturday but will check in tomorrow to give you all my 100% support. Well man coming tomorrow morning (again) so maybe this time I can get permanent resolution. Please say prayers and send positive vibes on these CT scans. It involves possible cancer.
Day 59 – 09/10 …..DNW……Ttrend weight DNW) They stopped my diabetic medications Wednesday night and I can’t begin taking them again until Sunday morning to protect the kidneys. Hopefully, knowing that, I will be able to do better on my eating. Today the well company comes back. Of course, it breaks down when they are NOT here, instead of when they are. This time, I hope they can figure out from the patterns what is going on. Praying it’s adjustments and not new pump or well. I am starving already (which happens after a day of eating with all caution to the wind). It won’t be easy, but I’ve got to be creative today and make it a good day.

Thanks @Miyoka_Tata
I am Dawn. 60, 5'2
Began MFP Oct 28.18 at 191 pounds
UGW 110-115
This is my 7th round on this thread: Round 1 loss 3.7, Round 2 loss 2.7, Round 3 loss 8.9, Round 4 loss 4.0
Round 5 loss 4.6. Round 6 - gain of 0.08
24.8 pound loss over 601 days.
I always reach for a 10 pound loss each 100 even though that hasn't happened.
I keep track of calories left over at the end of each day, in the Green on the MFP tracker. My aim is 500+ average calories in the Green each day (deficit) - this would lead to a 5lb loss over 100 days.
Day 1 7/14:132.2 - Wish that I had weighed this yesterday instead of 133.9 to end the previous 100! 312 in the Green
Day 2 7/15: 132.2 - Usually my weight jumps around quite around a bit, nice to see that I didn't somehow gain. 489 in the Green
Day 3 7/16: 133.1 - Had Beef Palak last night 803 in the Green
Day 4 7/17: 132.9 - 390 in the Green
1st Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
1st Week Actual Weight: 132.9
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 1994. Divided by the 4 days is 798.5, very close to my goal of having a 500 calories deficit each day (3500 calories in a pound, so shooting to lose 1 pound per week)
Day 5: Sun, 7/18: 133.3 - owch. 616 in the Green
Day 6: Mon, 7/19: 133.9 - I didn't do anything to gain. I will keep plugging along though. I am working out of town today and have scheduled 2 visits with separate groups up there once I finish my work, and then another back here. Would have been nice to have a cushion since there will be drinks and snacks at all 3. 334 in the Green
Day 7: Tues, 7/20: 132.8 - I have an evening shift today and a split shift tomorrow. I don't like eating so late, but I eat so many vegetables with my dinner that I don't eat before work so that I am not gassy lol. 906 in the Green
Day 8: Wed, 7/21: 133.3 - Late dinner, as tonight will be because of my work schedule. I really do know that eating late is a killer to my weight loss, but it is what it is. 391 in the Green
Day 9: Thurs, 7/22: 132.8 - Bouncing around as usual. Of course i would rather be bouncing around in the 120s, hopefully eventually! 917 in the Green
Day 10: Fri, 7/23: 132.7 - Late dinner last night again due to work schedule. 313 in the Green
Day 11: Sat, 7/24: 132.1 - Tonight will be late dinner again. 389 in the Green
2nd Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
2nd Week Actual Weight: 132.1
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 3866 - Average 552, so should have lost a pound and did.
Day 12 Sun 7/25: 132.4 - My work schedule is posted, I am working the day shifts until Friday, eating dinner earlier will be a benefit to my weight loss I believe. 970 in the Green
Day 13 Mon 7/26: 132.4 - I got a bunch of yard work done yesterday (drop in the bucket) even though it is smoky around here. 1070 in the Green
Day 14 Tues 7/27: 132.2 - Huge calorie burn yesterday, dance workout to warm up, HIIT with weights to follow, gardening/yard time before work and after work, plus the 300-400 that I usually burn at work running around. Back to start weight. 217 in the Green
Day 15 Wed 7/28: 132.1 55 in the Green
Day 16 Thurs 7/29: 134.8 - Ouch 595 in the Green
Day 17 Fri 7/30: 134.8 - Not happy about this of course, but taking it in stride. Hopefully my 500 deficit that I aim for will average out over the week, I haven't had time for workouts because of being wrapped up trying to fix my car issues. Spent the entire day yesterday buying a new one, but still have to deal with the dead one in the retail parking lot. On evening shifts for the next couple of weeks, so eating times are a challenge for me. 325 in the Green
Day 18 Sat 7/31: 133.8 - Down a pound since yesterday, carved out time to work out. My body will just have to get used to eating late after work. 866 in the Green
3rd Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
3rd Week Actual Weight: 133.8 - Gain of 1.4 this week, don't want this to get away from me.
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 4098
Day 19: Sun, 8/1: 132.9 - My internal clock is off working evening shifts, glad to see a tiny drop. Last week was kind of disastrous on the scale. I had planned an indulgent day after tonight's shift, we'll see. 243 in the Green
Day 20: Mon, 8/2: 133.3 - We had a bit of drizzle last night, hoping that it will help with the fires 574 in the Green
Day 21: Tues, 8/3: 133.3 - 738 in the Green
Day 22: Wed, 8/4: 132.9 - Maybe my body is getting used to the evening shifts and late dinner. 374 in the Green
Day 23: Thurs, 8/5: 132.8 - was planning some indulgence tonight after work, we'll see. 93 in the Green
Day 24: Fri, 8/6: 134.2 - Had wings last night, but also only 3 hours of sleep and water before weighing at 4am. I'm sure tomorrow's number will be better. Day off today, so will get lots of workouts and yard work done, not another day off until next Thursday. 371 in the Green
Day 25: Sat, 8/7: 134.3 - Wings again 468 in the Green
4th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 -
4th Week Actual Weight: 134.3
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 2861 - not enough to lose a pound
Day 26: Sun, 8/8: 136.0 - Double ouch. So hard to lose it, and so quick and easy to put it back on. 675 in the Green
Day 27: Mon, 8/9: 135.5 - It was so nice to eat dinner at a normal time. 1248 in the4 Green!!
Day 28: Tues, 8/10: 132.6 - Ended up with evening shifts after all, on top of day shifts. Burned a tonne yesterday after an unexpected shift. Didn't finish dinner until 11:30pm. 590
Day 29: Wed, 8/11: 131.7 - Very pleased with this, but will try not to get complacent after the huge jump in weight recently. Glad to see the drop a few days after the big calorie burn. Holding off on ribs for this month so far. 407 in the Green
Day 30: Thurs, 8/12: 132.9 - I basically only had snacks and Mojitos with a friend, no dinner. 541 in the Green
Day 31: Fri, 8/13: 134.0 - A couple of indulgent days. 146 in the Green
Day 32: Sat, 8/14: 134.7 - Self-imposed. 781 in the Green
5th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, seems a bit ambitious at this point, but going for it anyway
5th Week Actual Weight: 134.7 - Saw the 131s once this week.
Calorie Deficit totals: (Green on the Tracker) 4388 - enough to lose a pound.
Day 33: Sun, 8/15: 135.9 - Had a good calorie burn yesterday, so expect a good drop over the next couple of days. No reason for the gain today, so last week is still tolling. It always takes a few days in either direction. 581 in the Green
Day 34: Mon, 8/16: 134.4 - Working to get it down this week. 763 in the Green
Day 35: Tues, 8/17: 133.9 - Doing a split today, so dinner will be late. 1193 in the Green
Day 36: Wed, 8/18: 133.1 - Crazy amount of calories burned yesterday - A nice long workout in the morning and then a double shift waitressing where I burned almost 1000 calories running around - it was busy! Had a very late dinner. Normal dinners at normal times for the next 2 at least. 51 in the Green
Day 37: Thurs, 8/19: 134.3 - Not enough of a deficit yesterday. 567 in the Green
Day 38: Fri, 8/20: 134.9 - Disappointed for sure. I have a get together tonight, so am not expecting much of a loss for tomorrow morning. 232 in the Green
Day 39: Sat, 8/21: 134.3 - I know my exercise numbers, but my food numbers will be guestimates at best, lots of snacks with Mojitos - nuts, crackers, cheese etc. Like 1 ounce of cheese or 4? 10 crackers or 50? I am editing now, I went in and overestimated on the snacks. I had burned 1050 (including cutting the grass, work, a work out etc.) so did have a bit of a buffer. 201 in the RED
6th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - I keep plugging that one in. I was 141.1 on my birthday last year, aiming to have lost 10 pounds by September 20th.
6th Week Actual Weight: 134.3
Calorie deficit totals: 3186 - Not enough to lose a pound
Day 40: Sun, 8/22: 134.7 - I was in the red yesterday, which has only ever happened a couple of times. 453 in the Green
Day 41: Mon, 8/23: 135.6 - Had a great workout and a hike yesterday, even slept as late as possible because I have an evening shift today. Not sure where the spike came from, maybe left over from Friday or Saturday or both. 456 in the Green
Day 42: Tues, 8/24: 135.1 - Sticking with the plan. 499 in the Green
Day 43: Wed, 8/25: 136.4 - Last November's weight : - ( 710 in the Green
Day 44: Thurs, 8/26: 134.4 - Teeter tottering. 250 in the Green
Day 45: Fri, 8/27: 134.8 - CICO was - just okay yesterday. I really don't lose weight if I don't have a 500 in the Green. 774 in the Green
Day 46: Sat, 8/28: 136.5 - Ouch 486 in the Green
7th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - I keep plugging that one in. I was 141.1 on my birthday last year, aiming to have lost 10 pounds by September 20th. Kind of unrealistic for this week, but aiming.
7th Week Actual Weight: 136.5
Calorie deficit totals: 3628
Day 47: Sun, 8/29: 136.5 - Day off today, I will likely get in some extra activity. My last measurements were at 130.6, not going to be measuring right now lol. Pants are tight for sure. 580 in the green
Day 48: Mon, 8/30: 137.0 - I have really been climbing these past 2 months. Not feeling good about that.
Day 49: Tues, 8/31: 134.7 - Late dinner last night and will be again tonight because I am working a split. I should be happy to see this drop, but am not. I really started the weight climb in July. I will have to turn it around. 1146 in the Green
Day 50: Wed, 9/1: 134.0 - Huge calorie burn yesterday, more than I actually ate!. Double shift, workouts. August is gone and I did not even have Ribs because I am unwilling to stop fighting the battle of the bugle. Halfway mark today, and I am up almost 2 pounds from the start of the 100. Expecting a good drop tomorrow morning reflecting yesterday's huge calorie burn. 951 in the Green
Day 51: Thurs, 9/2: 133.9 - Kind of expected a bigger drop today after cutting the grass, yardwork, workouts, work, and low calories. I haven't had Ribs since July and was thinking that I might have some tonight if my weight was down more. I get a really good discount on Indian Food at the restaurant, but I have been avoiding that as well. Had a bit of a Eureka moment talking to a friend yesterday, I lose most of my weight for the year during skating season - I burn lots of calories and keep my food pretty good year round, is it the joy that skating gives me that changes the chemistry in my body? Or is it that I love skating so much that I do it for longer than other things. Not sure, but have decided to not beat myself up that the weight isn't coming off right now. 377 in the RED
Day 52: Fri, 9/3: 135.3 - Ribs last night. Memphis Dry Rub. Soooo yummy. I may pay for that on the scale for awhile, but it was kind of worth it. 693 in the Green
Day 53: Sat, 9/4: 135.8 - expected to see a Ribs uptick for a couple of days, I'm okay with it. 724 in the Green
8th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - plugging i t in again, someday I will hit it, I hit 130.6 last 100
8th Week Actual Weight: 135.8
Calorie deficit totals: 4305 - enough to lose a pound and I came close to that, 0.7 off of day 47
Day 54: Sun, 9/5: 136.3 - Still the aftermath of the Ribs? I was "good" yesterday. 352 in the Green
Day 55: Mon, 9/6: 135.5 - Better. Still paying for Thursday's Ribs, but I am okay with that. 790 in the Green
Day 56: Tues, 9/7: 135.2 No woosh, but steadily coming down. 787 in the Green
Day 57: Wed, 9/8: 135.1 - On split shifts yesterday and today, so late dinners. Glad to still see a small drop. 7 days to get the Ribs off? 1226 in the Green
Day 58: Thurs, 9/9: 134.1 - That is a nice drop. Yesterday's numbers are not sustainable (burned more than I ate!), but glad that they made a difference. 1060 in the Green
Day 59: Fri, 9/10: 137.7 - Planned indulgences tonight after work.

Day 57: 9/08: 165.9 - a bounce up after a long weekend and one day planned high-calorie day and one day of overindulging in salt/carbs. I did get my average calories back down to 1382 as of yesterday, so that's good. Drinking lots of water and hopefully will drop back down in a few days.
Day 58: 9/09: 164.8 - So happy to see 164.x after 2 weeks bouncing around 165's.

100 Days of Accountability 7/14-10/21I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.
Female, Age 60, 5’3”
Challenge Starting Weight: 205 (7/13)
Challenge Goal: <195
History & Goals
Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021)
UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
* 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195
* Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
* Onederland: 199
* Weigh less than DH: 206 (April 2021) ✔️:)
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)Day 1: Wed, 7/14: 207.0 Walked .9 + 1.75 miles, swimming, 1565 cal, 68 net carbs, AF. Hiking in Brazos State Park & swimming to entertain my daughter-in-law’s 5 yr old niece that is visiting. Came too close to an alligator! Wow that is a strange & disappointing jump up on the scale this morning! Could sweet potato fries do that much damage at lunch?
Day 2: Thurs, 7/15: 207.2 Walked 4.5 miles, bike 30 min, squats, hand weights, cal, net carbs, 1 Torchy’s Tini. Chili for lunch and Torchy’s for dinner. Walked the dog to my home owners’ assoc. local lap pool (heated during the winter) to see if my key card still works which was much further than I thought but a nice walk (better than jumping in the car!). It is still active so I guess I need to consider adding swimming laps to my routine. The dog & I were both exhausted walking in the heat but we beat the rain! Need to make a point to get out earlier in the morning.
Day 3: Fri, 7/16: 207.4 WI at 4am. Walk 2 + 1.3 miles, weeding/gardening, 2187 cal, 141 net carbs, AF (Neon Zebra margarita mocktail). Pizza for lunch & quesadillas for dinner. Need to clean up my meal planning.
Day 4: Sat, 7/17: 206.2 Walk 1 + 1.3 miles, 1892 cal, 95 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
1st Week Goal Weight: 204.x Repeating goal until I hit it
1st Week Actual Weight: 206.2 (7 day avg 206.1)
1st Week Weight Loss: +1.2
Not even close. I was at 205 the day before the challenge started and it should have been easy peasy to make a 204.x goal. But on day 1 my weight skyrocketed. Finally got it going back down. Now to continue breaking through that 205 barrier.
Day 5: Sun, 7/18: 207.0 Walk 1.3 miles , 1511 cal, 83 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Nice morning breakfast outside then farmers market with DD & her husband & dogs. A pretty lazy day but did throw out more stuff as I anticipate a possible move. Also sorted more of my kids’ medical, scouting and school records along with their birth, baptism, lifeguarding & other certificates to pass along to them. The idea of moving elsewhere away from the kids and all the community I’ve built up over the past 30 years in Houston is starting to stress me out. Drinking more, not paying attention to the meal planning, not sleeping well (dreams of what if) and in general riddled with anxiety.
Day 6: Mon, 7/19: 205.9 Walked 3.2 miles, 1480 cal, 76 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Good day. Kids came over to cook burgers for lunch and chat.
Day 7: Tues, 7/20: 207.1 Walked 3.25 miles, gardened, 1509 cal, 122 net carbs, AF. Lunch & dinner with friends first Thai and then Mediterranean so I’m assuming that this is sodium or hidden calories since I was in the green 246 calories yesterday. Plan is to stay on track today and drink LOTS of water.
Day 8: Wed, 7/21: 204.9 Walk 4.5 + 1.3 miles, bike 30 min, squats & hand weights, 1252 cal, 110 net carbs, AF. Big swoosh from yesterday which was an obvious sodium uptick. Now to keep this below 205 for the rest of the week!
Day 9: Thurs, 7/22: 204.3 Walk 3 + 1.3 miles, garden, 1161 cal, 49 net carbs, AF. Tried Kombucha for the first time. Kevita sparkling Lemon Cayenne. Nice change of pace!
Day 10: Fri, 7/23: 204.6 Walk 3.3 miles, garden, 1439 cal, 77 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Today I’m meeting an old friend to walk the paths on Buffalo Bayou downtown Houston, Cisterns tour, and picnic!
Day 11: Sat, 7/24: 204.5 Walked 2 + 3.4 + .6 miles Buffalo Bayou, 1564 cal, 101 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Wonderful active day! Closed all my rings plus overlapped the rings on the Apple Watch. 19550 steps!

Day 13: Mon, 7/26: 204.6 Walk 3.6 miles, bike 30 min, squats. plank & hand weights, 1649 cal, 64 net carbs, AF. Woke up too early and I was exhausted all day. Tried on every pant in my closet which was interesting. I’m pear shape size 18. I already threw out the size 20 & 22 pants. Put everything that was too small in another area to pull out when I’m 10 pounds lighter because though size 16 fits it doesn’t look great. I’m really apprehensive about this 1 hr Strong and Fit total body workout I signed up to take once per week. But I think it will be good for my bones & muscles as I age and hopefully it will help shape my legs, tummy and arms!
Day 14: Tues, 7/27: 204.6 Walk 3.2 + .6 miles, 14200 steps, total body workout class 1 hr, 1552 cal, 103 net carbs, AF. Survived my first Strong & Fit class one-hour total body workout increases muscle strength and endurance by using light weights and high repetition. Lots of lunges, squats, planks and such with tons of arm movement. Sore this morning.
Day 15: Wed, 7/28: 205.2 Walk 4.6 + 1.4 miles, bike 30 min, 2044 cal, 120 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Almost 500 cal in snacks during the day then changed dinner plans and went to a favorite Italian restaurant. Undid all my great efforts exercising in the morning.
Day 16: Thurs, 7/29: 205.0 Walk 2.3 miles, swim 400m, 2171 cal, 84 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. I’m really starting to feel all the muscles in my body adding the strength training Monday and then swimming Wednesday on top of my regular walking dog 100miles/month and bike 1x/wk.
Day 17: Fri, 7/30: 205.6 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walk 2 miles, long 5+ hr car ride, 11602 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Got up and walked at 6am yesterday since I knew I was taking my mom to the doctor before driving to the camp. It all makes for a very long day.
Day 18: Sat, 7/31: 205.4 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 miles, power washed the dock, 1789 cal, 108 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Took mom to the rehab center for her wrist and a lady behind us fell … took 3 people to get her up. Then neighbor at the camp fell hitting her head. She is 101 years old. Helped her until ambulance was able to make it out to our remote location. Then when her husband brought her back home he called again for me to help get her into bed. I did not sleep well. After seeing these 2 fall I REALLY want to lose weight. Being old, obese and not very mobile is not in my vision of my future. Ready to tackle August and lose more weight.

I was able to take last night’s smoked chicken and make chicken salad wraps to go with our wine for a relaxing TGIF at home!

I’ll take it!
Day 26: Sun, 8/8: 203.1 Walk 4.75 + .6 miles, Bike 30 min, 1569 cal, 68 net carbs, 3 wine. Tackled a long walk early in the day to make up for my lack of progress toward 100 miles in August AND try to get back down to 202.x.

My new bathing suit from Lands End came in yesterday! The size 16 fit! Yeah! I can get rid of my 1x & 2x bathing suits and swim laps today without flashing anyone. 🏊♀️
Day 32: Sat, 8/14: 201.6 Walked 3.3 + .7 miles, swam laps 400m, treaded water 7 min, 1543 cal, 85 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Still eating more than the new target of 1300 cal but I’m definitely burning extra as well.
Do you eat your exercise calories?
I seem to eat at least half of mine each day usually as a snack. Trying to cut out the treats/something sweet after the meal but not successfully. This was never an issue before since I’m not a chocolate eater and normally ignore everything including ice cream but never ignore pie. Though for the last year … I’ve craved something sweet, choc and even ice cream … hmmm where did that habit come from?
5th Week Goal Weight: <202

Inching down a little each day/week toward 200! Next week is going to be really challenging since I have social events M-Th night at restaurants. I need to look up the menus and figure out a game plan.
Day 33: Sun, 8/15: 202.0 Walked 3.2 miles with my DD & her dogs, 1808 cal, 100 net carbs, 1 glass wine. In the red calorie wise so not surprised by the uptick on the scale. Wedding shower which included cake then my kids came over for dinner. Definitely what I would call a food day though I spent most of the time talking to friends and family.
Day 34: Mon, 8/16: 201.8 Walk 3 miles, Bike 30 min, 1325 cal, 113 net carbs (biscotti at breakfast & rye bread on sandwich blew my carb budget
Day 35: Tues, 8/17: 202.9 Walked 3.4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1514 cal, 95 net carbs, AF. Book club. Chose wisely at restaurant (chicken kabob, tomato cucumber salad, 1/2 cup rice, water) and still got a bump up. This was the easiest restaurant for the week to plan & execute. First of 4 nights out. Hmmm
Day 36: Wed, 8/18: 201.6 Walked 2 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1049 cal, 78 net carbs, 1 glass wine. Evening event where my dinner consisted of a few appetizers … mini crab cakes & pot stickers.

NSV: Vanity sizing probably but I ordered pants and shorts for walking in a couple of different sizes along with the new swimsuit from Lands End. I’m sending back the XL pants & shorts and the 18 swimsuit! Keeping the L and 16. 😊 That feels good.
Day 38: Fri, 8/20: 203.0 Walked 4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1590 cal, 76 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Cooking class with friends where we made Fruit Empanadas, Paella Mixta, Tortilla Española. Exercised and fasted through breakfast but obviously not enough. Expected bump up after 4 evenings in a row eating at restaurants with friends. Gearing up for damage control and not let this be an excuse to continue to backslide.
Day 39: Sat, 8/21: 204.6 Walked 4 miles, Swam 500m + treaded water 12 min, 2003 cal, 110 net carbs, 3 glasses wine, >100 oz water. Great exercise day but snacked on way to many nuts, fries at lunch & rice at dinner. But wow the continued rise in the scale is worrying me!
6th Week Goal Weight: 200.anything! With 4 evenings at restaurants I would be happy just to stay below 202.
6th Week Actual Weight: 204.6 (7 day avg 202.7)
6th Week Weight Loss: +3
Wrong direction. I need to turn this wagon around.
Day 40: Sun, 8/22: 203.6 Walked 4.5 + .5 miles, 1568 cal, 71 net carbs, AF. Planning fall road trip and kitchen remodel. My best friend has Covid running rampant in her family that live in Sulphur Louisiana starting early last week. Her vaccinated uncle passed away Friday & her unvaccinated brother is in the hospital. Both of their families now all have it as well. My unvaccinated DIL’s 2 brothers (age 24) in Lafayette Louisiana got it last weekend. One brother had it last summer but this time it is much worse. They were around my son & his wife over last weekend but they are both vaccinated and tested negative. Scary how fast it hits & spreads.
Day 41: Mon, 8/23: 203.5 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1521 cal, 110 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lazy day.
Day 42: Tues, 8/24: 203.7 Walked 3 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1656 cal, 156 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Cousin came in from Florida and we went to my sister’s for crawfish étouffée and wine … but I insisted on going to my exercise class before meeting up with them.
No swimming laps for a couple of weeks since they closed the olympic size lap pool for maintenance.
Thinking about signing up for twice per week strength classes in September to prep for hiking plans in Oct. The lunge part of the routine has made me much better at going up and down steps at home.
Day 43: Wed, 8/25: 201.9 Walked 2.4 miles, 1255 cal, 117 net carbs, AF. Walked first thing in the morning, breakfast, donated blood & cleaned out a few kitchen cabinets … all before lunch! Then yard work and more cabinets in the afternoon.
Day 44: Thurs, 8/26: 203.1 Walked 3.6 +1 miles, gardening, 1794 cal, 143 net carbs, AF. Errand day in the afternoon … library, dry cleaners, groceries, gas, and tried on tons of bras until I found my new favorite.

Day 45: Fri, 8/27: 203.6 Walked 1.3 miles, 2108 cal, 135 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Scan of leg veins to determine swelling in one ankle + 1st shot of Shingrix (shingles) Vaccine. Needless to say eating fried chicken for lunch and then Italian dinner out did not soothe my feelings or help my progress on the scale. Rain and low energy yesterday and today.
Day 46: Sat, 8/28: 203.0 Walked 3.2 + .7 miles, 1496 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Headache & fatigue kicked my butt after the Thursday shingles vaccine … read & slept a ton. Feeling better this morning.

7th Week Actual Weight: 203.0 (7 day avg 203.2)
7th Week Weight Loss: -1.6

Day 47: Sun, 8/29: 203.1 No Exercise … worked on design to remodel the entire downstairs of our house instead with DD who is a commercial interior designer.

FINISHED my 100 miles for August! I’m walking on the 31st anyway.

DH met with allergist over Zoom and he thinks we might have covid … constant headaches for days w/ fatigue, tightness in DH’s chest … prescribed Prednisone for DH. Went to 8 local pharmacies and they were out of the rapid covid test (BinaxNOW). Scheduled PCR Covid 19 test Thursday morning but won’t have the results for 2-5 days. Our son has a rapid covid test and is dropping it off today. Good news is that we are both vaccinated. Not sure where we would have picked up covid … restaurant? grocery store? My sister that is an elementary teacher? Moved trip to fishing camp out to the next weekend.
Day 52: Fri, 9/3: 204.1 Walked 3 + 3.8 miles, 1588 cal, 116 net carbs, AF. Our son brought us a BinaxNOW covid home test kit … it was negative! So we both must have really bad colds since Sunday.

Day 53: Sat, 9/4: 203.9 Walked 3.4 + 1.3 miles, 2026 cal, 159 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine.

The neighborhood olympic size lap pool reopened after being closed for 2 weeks for maintenance! Remaining calories in the green!

Day 58: Thurs, 9/9: 202.3 Walked 4 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1357 cal, 91 net carbs, AF. Didn’t accomplish much today outside of menu planning, groceries, cooking, and exercising … oh and reading “This Tender Land” by William Kent Krueger and listening to “The House in the Cerulean Sea” by TJ Klune.

Thanks @Miyoka_Tata
I am Dawn. 60, 5'2
Began MFP Oct 28.18 at 191 pounds
UGW 110-115
This is my 7th round on this thread: Round 1 loss 3.7, Round 2 loss 2.7, Round 3 loss 8.9, Round 4 loss 4.0
Round 5 loss 4.6. Round 6 - gain of 0.08
24.8 pound loss over 601 days.
I always reach for a 10 pound loss each 100 even though that hasn't happened.
I keep track of calories left over at the end of each day, in the Green on the MFP tracker. My aim is 500+ average calories in the Green each day (deficit) - this would lead to a 5lb loss over 100 days.Day 1 7/14:132.2 - Wish that I had weighed this yesterday instead of 133.9 to end the previous 100! 312 in the Green
Day 2 7/15: 132.2 - Usually my weight jumps around quite around a bit, nice to see that I didn't somehow gain. 489 in the Green
Day 3 7/16: 133.1 - Had Beef Palak last night 803 in the Green
Day 4 7/17: 132.9 - 390 in the Green
1st Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
1st Week Actual Weight: 132.9
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 1994. Divided by the 4 days is 798.5, very close to my goal of having a 500 calories deficit each day (3500 calories in a pound, so shooting to lose 1 pound per week)
Day 5: Sun, 7/18: 133.3 - owch. 616 in the Green
Day 6: Mon, 7/19: 133.9 - I didn't do anything to gain. I will keep plugging along though. I am working out of town today and have scheduled 2 visits with separate groups up there once I finish my work, and then another back here. Would have been nice to have a cushion since there will be drinks and snacks at all 3. 334 in the Green
Day 7: Tues, 7/20: 132.8 - I have an evening shift today and a split shift tomorrow. I don't like eating so late, but I eat so many vegetables with my dinner that I don't eat before work so that I am not gassy lol. 906 in the Green
Day 8: Wed, 7/21: 133.3 - Late dinner, as tonight will be because of my work schedule. I really do know that eating late is a killer to my weight loss, but it is what it is. 391 in the Green
Day 9: Thurs, 7/22: 132.8 - Bouncing around as usual. Of course i would rather be bouncing around in the 120s, hopefully eventually! 917 in the Green
Day 10: Fri, 7/23: 132.7 - Late dinner last night again due to work schedule. 313 in the Green
Day 11: Sat, 7/24: 132.1 - Tonight will be late dinner again. 389 in the Green
2nd Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
2nd Week Actual Weight: 132.1
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 3866 - Average 552, so should have lost a pound and did.
Day 12 Sun 7/25: 132.4 - My work schedule is posted, I am working the day shifts until Friday, eating dinner earlier will be a benefit to my weight loss I believe. 970 in the Green
Day 13 Mon 7/26: 132.4 - I got a bunch of yard work done yesterday (drop in the bucket) even though it is smoky around here. 1070 in the Green
Day 14 Tues 7/27: 132.2 - Huge calorie burn yesterday, dance workout to warm up, HIIT with weights to follow, gardening/yard time before work and after work, plus the 300-400 that I usually burn at work running around. Back to start weight. 217 in the Green
Day 15 Wed 7/28: 132.1 55 in the Green
Day 16 Thurs 7/29: 134.8 - Ouch 595 in the Green
Day 17 Fri 7/30: 134.8 - Not happy about this of course, but taking it in stride. Hopefully my 500 deficit that I aim for will average out over the week, I haven't had time for workouts because of being wrapped up trying to fix my car issues. Spent the entire day yesterday buying a new one, but still have to deal with the dead one in the retail parking lot. On evening shifts for the next couple of weeks, so eating times are a challenge for me. 325 in the Green
Day 18 Sat 7/31: 133.8 - Down a pound since yesterday, carved out time to work out. My body will just have to get used to eating late after work. 866 in the Green
3rd Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, starting there
3rd Week Actual Weight: 133.8 - Gain of 1.4 this week, don't want this to get away from me.
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 4098
Day 19: Sun, 8/1: 132.9 - My internal clock is off working evening shifts, glad to see a tiny drop. Last week was kind of disastrous on the scale. I had planned an indulgent day after tonight's shift, we'll see. 243 in the Green
Day 20: Mon, 8/2: 133.3 - We had a bit of drizzle last night, hoping that it will help with the fires 574 in the Green
Day 21: Tues, 8/3: 133.3 - 738 in the Green
Day 22: Wed, 8/4: 132.9 - Maybe my body is getting used to the evening shifts and late dinner. 374 in the Green
Day 23: Thurs, 8/5: 132.8 - was planning some indulgence tonight after work, we'll see. 93 in the Green
Day 24: Fri, 8/6: 134.2 - Had wings last night, but also only 3 hours of sleep and water before weighing at 4am. I'm sure tomorrow's number will be better. Day off today, so will get lots of workouts and yard work done, not another day off until next Thursday. 371 in the Green
Day 25: Sat, 8/7: 134.3 - Wings again 468 in the Green
4th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 -
4th Week Actual Weight: 134.3
Calorie Deficit (Green on the Tracker): 2861 - not enough to lose a pound
Day 26: Sun, 8/8: 136.0 - Double ouch. So hard to lose it, and so quick and easy to put it back on. 675 in the Green
Day 27: Mon, 8/9: 135.5 - It was so nice to eat dinner at a normal time. 1248 in the4 Green!!
Day 28: Tues, 8/10: 132.6 - Ended up with evening shifts after all, on top of day shifts. Burned a tonne yesterday after an unexpected shift. Didn't finish dinner until 11:30pm. 590
Day 29: Wed, 8/11: 131.7 - Very pleased with this, but will try not to get complacent after the huge jump in weight recently. Glad to see the drop a few days after the big calorie burn. Holding off on ribs for this month so far. 407 in the Green
Day 30: Thurs, 8/12: 132.9 - I basically only had snacks and Mojitos with a friend, no dinner. 541 in the Green
Day 31: Fri, 8/13: 134.0 - A couple of indulgent days. 146 in the Green
Day 32: Sat, 8/14: 134.7 - Self-imposed. 781 in the Green
5th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - Aimed for this all last 100, seems a bit ambitious at this point, but going for it anyway
5th Week Actual Weight: 134.7 - Saw the 131s once this week.
Calorie Deficit totals: (Green on the Tracker) 4388 - enough to lose a pound.
Day 33: Sun, 8/15: 135.9 - Had a good calorie burn yesterday, so expect a good drop over the next couple of days. No reason for the gain today, so last week is still tolling. It always takes a few days in either direction. 581 in the Green
Day 34: Mon, 8/16: 134.4 - Working to get it down this week. 763 in the Green
Day 35: Tues, 8/17: 133.9 - Doing a split today, so dinner will be late. 1193 in the Green
Day 36: Wed, 8/18: 133.1 - Crazy amount of calories burned yesterday - A nice long workout in the morning and then a double shift waitressing where I burned almost 1000 calories running around - it was busy! Had a very late dinner. Normal dinners at normal times for the next 2 at least. 51 in the Green
Day 37: Thurs, 8/19: 134.3 - Not enough of a deficit yesterday. 567 in the Green
Day 38: Fri, 8/20: 134.9 - Disappointed for sure. I have a get together tonight, so am not expecting much of a loss for tomorrow morning. 232 in the Green
Day 39: Sat, 8/21: 134.3 - I know my exercise numbers, but my food numbers will be guestimates at best, lots of snacks with Mojitos - nuts, crackers, cheese etc. Like 1 ounce of cheese or 4? 10 crackers or 50? I am editing now, I went in and overestimated on the snacks. I had burned 1050 (including cutting the grass, work, a work out etc.) so did have a bit of a buffer. 201 in the RED
6th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - I keep plugging that one in. I was 141.1 on my birthday last year, aiming to have lost 10 pounds by September 20th.
6th Week Actual Weight: 134.3
Calorie deficit totals: 3186 - Not enough to lose a pound
Day 40: Sun, 8/22: 134.7 - I was in the red yesterday, which has only ever happened a couple of times. 453 in the Green
Day 41: Mon, 8/23: 135.6 - Had a great workout and a hike yesterday, even slept as late as possible because I have an evening shift today. Not sure where the spike came from, maybe left over from Friday or Saturday or both. 456 in the Green
Day 42: Tues, 8/24: 135.1 - Sticking with the plan. 499 in the Green
Day 43: Wed, 8/25: 136.4 - Last November's weight : - ( 710 in the Green
Day 44: Thurs, 8/26: 134.4 - Teeter tottering. 250 in the Green
Day 45: Fri, 8/27: 134.8 - CICO was - just okay yesterday. I really don't lose weight if I don't have a 500 in the Green. 774 in the Green
Day 46: Sat, 8/28: 136.5 - Ouch 486 in the Green
7th Week Goal Weight: 131.1 - I keep plugging that one in. I was 141.1 on my birthday last year, aiming to have lost 10 pounds by September 20th. Kind of unrealistic for this week, but aiming.
7th Week Actual Weight: 136.5
Calorie deficit totals: 3628
Day 47: Sun, 8/29: 136.5 - Day off today, I will likely get in some extra activity. My last measurements were at 130.6, not going to be measuring right now lol. Pants are tight for sure. 580 in the green
Day 48: Mon, 8/30: 137.0 - I have really been climbing these past 2 months. Not feeling good about that.
Day 49: Tues, 8/31: 134.7 - Late dinner last night and will be again tonight because I am working a split. I should be happy to see this drop, but am not. I really started the weight climb in July. I will have to turn it around. 1146 in the Green
Day 50: Wed, 9/1: 134.0 - Huge calorie burn yesterday, more than I actually ate!. Double shift, workouts. August is gone and I did not even have Ribs because I am unwilling to stop fighting the battle of the bugle. Halfway mark today, and I am up almost 2 pounds from the start of the 100. Expecting a good drop tomorrow morning reflecting yesterday's huge calorie burn. 951 in the Green
Day 51: Thurs, 9/2: 133.9 - Kind of expected a bigger drop today after cutting the grass, yardwork, workouts, work, and low calories. I haven't had Ribs since July and was thinking that I might have some tonight if my weight was down more. I get a really good discount on Indian Food at the restaurant, but I have been avoiding that as well. Had a bit of a Eureka moment talking to a friend yesterday, I lose most of my weight for the year during skating season - I burn lots of calories and keep my food pretty good year round, is it the joy that skating gives me that changes the chemistry in my body? Or is it that I love skating so much that I do it for longer than other things. Not sure, but have decided to not beat myself up that the weight isn't coming off right now. 377 in the RED
Day 52: Fri, 9/3: 135.3 - Ribs last night. Memphis Dry Rub. Soooo yummy. I may pay for that on the scale for awhile, but it was kind of worth it. 693 in the Green
Day 53: Sat, 9/4: 135.8 - expected to see a Ribs uptick for a couple of days, I'm okay with it. 724 in the Green

8th Week Actual Weight: 135.8
Calorie deficit totals: 4305 - enough to lose a pound and I came close to that, 0.7 off of day 47
Day 54: Sun, 9/5: 136.3 - Still the aftermath of the Ribs? I was "good" yesterday. 352 in the Green
Day 55: Mon, 9/6: 135.5 - Better. Still paying for Thursday's Ribs, but I am okay with that. 790 in the Green
Day 56: Tues, 9/7: 135.2 No woosh, but steadily coming down. 787 in the Green
Day 57: Wed, 9/8: 135.1 - On split shifts yesterday and today, so late dinners. Glad to still see a small drop. 7 days to get the Ribs off? 1226 in the Green
Day 58: Thurs, 9/9: 134.1 - That is a nice drop. Yesterday's numbers are not sustainable (burned more than I ate!), but glad that they made a difference. 1060 in the Green
Day 59: Fri, 9/10: 133.7 - Planned indulgences tonight after work. 390 in the Green
Day 60: Sat, 9/11: 134.1 - I had some food from Spice Hut, the Indian restaurant where I work. Mutter Paneer. It was really good, I ate half. This is only the second time that I have had food from there since April. With all of the activity that I had, I have skimmed 2.2 pounds off of the beginning of this week

Total Accumulated Actual Weight Loss…..8.8 lbs. total lost so far
Day 50 – 09/01 …..182.8…..(Trend weight 187.8)
Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 10 pounds but I am skeptical. I’ll change this on Sunday to keep it realistic.
Day 51 – 09/02 …..185.2…..(Trend weight 187.5)
Day 52 – 09/03 …..187.5…..(Trend weight 187.7) There are those extra calories showing up. I should have skipped that MASSIVE piece of cheesecake but no looking back! Back home and on track today. I plan a great day. 3 hours and 2 minutes of sleep last night. No enough water yesterday. No TMI today. Weigh in was less than 5 hours after my last food (that happens with so little sleep and such a long day). I suspect tomorrow will be better. Cement for the 80 foot set of steps down to the mailbox today is being poured by a company and being leveled by my handymen. Exciting day! I think the cabin I rent out is also being painted today unless plans changed while I was away. Progress…….
Day 53 – 09/04 …..187.5…..(Trend weight 187.8) Yesterday I found out that my ex-sister-in-law that I’ve known for 46 years died of Covid in South Carolina. She was fully vaccinated and had just turned 64. She was immuno-compromised. Her daughter found her unresponsive in her home (she lived alone). She was alive, but was later determined to be brain dead. She was lucky enough to get a ventilator for a short time since they are scarce, but she was taken off all life support measures when it was determined she would never wake up and never go home. Please, even if vaccinated, mask up in those highly public places. More people love you and don’t want to lose you than you even realize. I spent all evening and night eating my emotions and moving into the 2nd phase of grief = anger. I am surprised the scale didn’t go up. Today I will try hard to be more mindful. The food binges changes nothing.
Day 54 – 09/05 …..188.2…..(Trend weight 187.8) I’ve got to get this train back on track before my trend weight changes. Those numbers are harder to get movement on and I don’t want to deal with that too. I ate 400 extra calories after I closed out MFP last night which put me in the red. I hadn’t planned well and was hungry and looking for comfort too. I have regret today. Lots of phone calls and texting yesterday. Not as much movement as I could have had. Today is the BBQ at my DD’s house for Labor Day. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, especially my grandkids so I’ll probably go but I would rather stay here in my pajamas all day and allow myself to be sad and angry. I don’t need the scale’s loud voice screaming at me tomorrow, so I’ll try to watch it today. However, no guarantees at a large holiday gathering.
Day 55 – 09/06 …..189.4…..(Trend weight 188.0) My well went out again this morning. Luckily I was able to complicate my handyman on his holiday and get him over to re-prime. Luckily my neighbor was gracious enough to let us use his hoses and spigot/water for the reprime, even though he has overnight friend and his girlfriend staying with them. Nothing like imposing on a bunch of very nice people! Scale is up again, cortisol levels are through the roof. 2 doctor appointments this week. Tomorrow for glucose that has been running dangerously high. The other involves travel to get 2 different CT scans (one with contrast and one without). This is for the liver check and the lung check due to some cancer concerns. Seriously, can things get any worse? Oh, yeah. And the funeral for ex-SIL is tomorrow halfway across the country. I can’t go and hate that too. Chin up Donna! The odds are in my favor that things can only get better from here. I’m going to start by having a great day full of movement and water (but not full of food). Have SOMETHING go right is what I need most right now. Control what we can, right?
Day 56 – 09/07 …..187.2…..(Trend weight 187.9) I stuck to a 1002 calorie diet yesterday and added in some extra walking. It made the difference! Onward but not forward. I prefer downward.
Day 57 – 09/08 …..187.6…..(Trend weight 187.9) My calories were in the green and I did well with planning. However, due to very severe rain, thunderstorms and hail, I was unable to get outside. Busy day with my SIL funeral. I was able to be there thanks to a live video. Lots of phone calls and texts later kept me busy. I hope today I can fit a little more fitness in. Possible rain again, but it may pass us.
Day 58 – 09/09 …..188.8……(Trend weight 187.9) I totally blew it last night after logging out of MFP. And now, today I travel for two CT scans. There will be dinner out and lots of inactivity. I may skip weighing in tomorrow because I just can’t take anymore stress at this point (and we all know I ALWAYS gain after travel). I will post weight on Saturday but will check in tomorrow to give you all my 100% support. Well man coming tomorrow morning (again) so maybe this time I can get permanent resolution. Please say prayers and send positive vibes on these CT scans. It involves possible cancer.
Day 59 – 09/10 …..DNW……Ttrend weight DNW) They stopped my diabetic medications Wednesday night and I can’t begin taking them again until Sunday morning to protect the kidneys. Hopefully, knowing that, I will be able to do better on my eating. Today the well company comes back. Of course, it breaks down when they are NOT here, instead of when they are. This time, I hope they can figure out from the patterns what is going on. Praying it’s adjustments and not new pump or well. I am starving already (which happens after a day of eating with all caution to the wind). It won’t be easy, but I’ve got to be creative today and make it a good day.
Day 60 – 09/11 .….189.2……(Trend weight 188.3) I expected an uptick after that travel. It was likely higher and is working it’s way down. Results on the CT scans are in. Liver lesions are suspected to be multiple cysts, benign. The lung nodule grew wider and longer but it is still slow growing since 2019 and cancer should be growing faster. So, no invasive biopsy at this time. More CT scans in the future for re-check. Breast issues being addressed at the cancer center on the 16th. I don’t know what to expect there. On another note, the well company never showed up. Water is flowing if I baby it, but the pressures are off and I really need them. No show, no cancellation call. I’m pretty peeved. I am going to try for an easy restful day because my emotions have been all over the place. Drywall man is already here but I will fit in movement when I can. I’ve got to try to keep diet on point but that has been proving so difficult lately……

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
My goal for 2021 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
Plans:
🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)Day 1: Wed, 7/14: 207.0 Walked .9 + 1.75 miles, swimming, 1565 cal, 68 net carbs, AF. Hiking in Brazos State Park & swimming to entertain my daughter-in-law’s 5 yr old niece that is visiting. Came too close to an alligator! Wow that is a strange & disappointing jump up on the scale this morning! Could sweet potato fries do that much damage at lunch?
Day 2: Thurs, 7/15: 207.2 Walked 4.5 miles, bike 30 min, squats, hand weights, cal, net carbs, 1 Torchy’s Tini. Chili for lunch and Torchy’s for dinner. Walked the dog to my home owners’ assoc. local lap pool (heated during the winter) to see if my key card still works which was much further than I thought but a nice walk (better than jumping in the car!). It is still active so I guess I need to consider adding swimming laps to my routine. The dog & I were both exhausted walking in the heat but we beat the rain! Need to make a point to get out earlier in the morning.
Day 3: Fri, 7/16: 207.4 WI at 4am. Walk 2 + 1.3 miles, weeding/gardening, 2187 cal, 141 net carbs, AF (Neon Zebra margarita mocktail). Pizza for lunch & quesadillas for dinner. Need to clean up my meal planning.
Day 4: Sat, 7/17: 206.2 Walk 1 + 1.3 miles, 1892 cal, 95 net carbs, 3 glasses wine.
1st Week Goal Weight: 204.x Repeating goal until I hit it
1st Week Actual Weight: 206.2 (7 day avg 206.1)
1st Week Weight Loss: +1.2
Not even close. I was at 205 the day before the challenge started and it should have been easy peasy to make a 204.x goal. But on day 1 my weight skyrocketed. Finally got it going back down. Now to continue breaking through that 205 barrier.
Day 5: Sun, 7/18: 207.0 Walk 1.3 miles , 1511 cal, 83 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Nice morning breakfast outside then farmers market with DD & her husband & dogs. A pretty lazy day but did throw out more stuff as I anticipate a possible move. Also sorted more of my kids’ medical, scouting and school records along with their birth, baptism, lifeguarding & other certificates to pass along to them. The idea of moving elsewhere away from the kids and all the community I’ve built up over the past 30 years in Houston is starting to stress me out. Drinking more, not paying attention to the meal planning, not sleeping well (dreams of what if) and in general riddled with anxiety.
Day 6: Mon, 7/19: 205.9 Walked 3.2 miles, 1480 cal, 76 net carbs, 4 glasses wine. Good day. Kids came over to cook burgers for lunch and chat.
Day 7: Tues, 7/20: 207.1 Walked 3.25 miles, gardened, 1509 cal, 122 net carbs, AF. Lunch & dinner with friends first Thai and then Mediterranean so I’m assuming that this is sodium or hidden calories since I was in the green 246 calories yesterday. Plan is to stay on track today and drink LOTS of water.
Day 8: Wed, 7/21: 204.9 Walk 4.5 + 1.3 miles, bike 30 min, squats & hand weights, 1252 cal, 110 net carbs, AF. Big swoosh from yesterday which was an obvious sodium uptick. Now to keep this below 205 for the rest of the week!
Day 9: Thurs, 7/22: 204.3 Walk 3 + 1.3 miles, garden, 1161 cal, 49 net carbs, AF. Tried Kombucha for the first time. Kevita sparkling Lemon Cayenne. Nice change of pace!
Day 10: Fri, 7/23: 204.6 Walk 3.3 miles, garden, 1439 cal, 77 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Today I’m meeting an old friend to walk the paths on Buffalo Bayou downtown Houston, Cisterns tour, and picnic!
Day 11: Sat, 7/24: 204.5 Walked 2 + 3.4 + .6 miles Buffalo Bayou, 1564 cal, 101 net carbs, 2 glasses of wine. Wonderful active day! Closed all my rings plus overlapped the rings on the Apple Watch. 19550 steps!

Nailed it! 4 days in a row
Day 12: Sun, 7/25: 205.0 Walk 3.2 + .6 miles, 1538 cal, 120 net carbs, AF. Grimaldi’s pizza … need I say more? Drinking water!
Day 13: Mon, 7/26: 204.6 Walk 3.6 miles, bike 30 min, squats. plank & hand weights, 1649 cal, 64 net carbs, AF. Woke up too early and I was exhausted all day. Tried on every pant in my closet which was interesting. I’m pear shape size 18. I already threw out the size 20 & 22 pants. Put everything that was too small in another area to pull out when I’m 10 pounds lighter because though size 16 fits it doesn’t look great. I’m really apprehensive about this 1 hr Strong and Fit total body workout I signed up to take once per week. But I think it will be good for my bones & muscles as I age and hopefully it will help shape my legs, tummy and arms!
Day 14: Tues, 7/27: 204.6 Walk 3.2 + .6 miles, 14200 steps, total body workout class 1 hr, 1552 cal, 103 net carbs, AF. Survived my first Strong & Fit class one-hour total body workout increases muscle strength and endurance by using light weights and high repetition. Lots of lunges, squats, planks and such with tons of arm movement. Sore this morning.
Day 15: Wed, 7/28: 205.2 Walk 4.6 + 1.4 miles, bike 30 min, 2044 cal, 120 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Almost 500 cal in snacks during the day then changed dinner plans and went to a favorite Italian restaurant. Undid all my great efforts exercising in the morning.
Day 16: Thurs, 7/29: 205.0 Walk 2.3 miles, swim 400m, 2171 cal, 84 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. I’m really starting to feel all the muscles in my body adding the strength training Monday and then swimming Wednesday on top of my regular walking dog 100miles/month and bike 1x/wk.
Day 17: Fri, 7/30: 205.6 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walk 2 miles, long 5+ hr car ride, 11602 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Got up and walked at 6am yesterday since I knew I was taking my mom to the doctor before driving to the camp. It all makes for a very long day.
Day 18: Sat, 7/31: 205.4 @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.6 miles, power washed the dock, 1789 cal, 108 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Took mom to the rehab center for her wrist and a lady behind us fell … took 3 people to get her up. Then neighbor at the camp fell hitting her head. She is 101 years old. Helped her until ambulance was able to make it out to our remote location. Then when her husband brought her back home he called again for me to help get her into bed. I did not sleep well. After seeing these 2 fall I REALLY want to lose weight. Being old, obese and not very mobile is not in my vision of my future. Ready to tackle August and lose more weight.

I was able to take last night’s smoked chicken and make chicken salad wraps to go with our wine for a relaxing TGIF at home!

Day 32: Sat, 8/14: 201.6 Walked 3.3 + .7 miles, swam laps 400m, treaded water 7 min, 1543 cal, 85 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Still eating more than the new target of 1300 cal but I’m definitely burning extra as well.
Do you eat your exercise calories?
I seem to eat at least half of mine each day usually as a snack. Trying to cut out the treats/something sweet after the meal but not successfully. This was never an issue before since I’m not a chocolate eater and normally ignore everything including ice cream but never ignore pie. Though for the last year … I’ve craved something sweet, choc and even ice cream … hmmm where did that habit come from?
5th Week Goal Weight: <202
5th Week Actual Weight: 201.6 (7 day avg 202.37)

Inching down a little each day/week toward 200! Next week is going to be really challenging since I have social events M-Th night at restaurants. I need to look up the menus and figure out a game plan.
Day 33: Sun, 8/15: 202.0 Walked 3.2 miles with my DD & her dogs, 1808 cal, 100 net carbs, 1 glass wine. In the red calorie wise so not surprised by the uptick on the scale. Wedding shower which included cake then my kids came over for dinner. Definitely what I would call a food day though I spent most of the time talking to friends and family.
Day 34: Mon, 8/16: 201.8 Walk 3 miles, Bike 30 min, 1325 cal, 113 net carbs (biscotti at breakfast & rye bread on sandwich blew my carb budget
Day 35: Tues, 8/17: 202.9 Walked 3.4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1514 cal, 95 net carbs, AF. Book club. Chose wisely at restaurant (chicken kabob, tomato cucumber salad, 1/2 cup rice, water) and still got a bump up. This was the easiest restaurant for the week to plan & execute. First of 4 nights out. Hmmm

NSV: Vanity sizing probably but I ordered pants and shorts for walking in a couple of different sizes along with the new swimsuit from Lands End. I’m sending back the XL pants & shorts and the 18 swimsuit! Keeping the L and 16. 😊 That feels good.
Day 38: Fri, 8/20: 203.0 Walked 4 miles, Bike 30 min, 1590 cal, 76 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Cooking class with friends where we made Fruit Empanadas, Paella Mixta, Tortilla Española. Exercised and fasted through breakfast but obviously not enough. Expected bump up after 4 evenings in a row eating at restaurants with friends. Gearing up for damage control and not let this be an excuse to continue to backslide.
Day 39: Sat, 8/21: 204.6 Walked 4 miles, Swam 500m + treaded water 12 min, 2003 cal, 110 net carbs, 3 glasses wine, >100 oz water. Great exercise day but snacked on way to many nuts, fries at lunch & rice at dinner. But wow the continued rise in the scale is worrying me!
6th Week Goal Weight: 200.anything! With 4 evenings at restaurants I would be happy just to stay below 202.
6th Week Actual Weight: 204.6 (7 day avg 202.7)

Wrong direction. I need to turn this wagon around.
Day 40: Sun, 8/22: 203.6 Walked 4.5 + .5 miles, 1568 cal, 71 net carbs, AF. Planning fall road trip and kitchen remodel. My best friend has Covid running rampant in her family that live in Sulphur Louisiana starting early last week. Her vaccinated uncle passed away Friday & her unvaccinated brother is in the hospital. Both of their families now all have it as well. My unvaccinated DIL’s 2 brothers (age 24) in Lafayette Louisiana got it last weekend. One brother had it last summer but this time it is much worse. They were around my son & his wife over last weekend but they are both vaccinated and tested negative. Scary how fast it hits & spreads.
Day 41: Mon, 8/23: 203.5 Walked 3.2 + 1 miles, 1521 cal, 110 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lazy day.
Day 42: Tues, 8/24: 203.7 Walked 3 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1656 cal, 156 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Cousin came in from Florida and we went to my sister’s for crawfish étouffée and wine … but I insisted on going to my exercise class before meeting up with them.
No swimming laps for a couple of weeks since they closed the olympic size lap pool for maintenance.
Thinking about signing up for twice per week strength classes in September to prep for hiking plans in Oct. The lunge part of the routine has made me much better at going up and down steps at home.
Day 43: Wed, 8/25: 201.9 Walked 2.4 miles, 1255 cal, 117 net carbs, AF. Walked first thing in the morning, breakfast, donated blood & cleaned out a few kitchen cabinets … all before lunch! Then yard work and more cabinets in the afternoon.
Day 44: Thurs, 8/26: 203.1 Walked 3.6 +1 miles, gardening, 1794 cal, 143 net carbs, AF. Errand day in the afternoon … library, dry cleaners, groceries, gas, and tried on tons of bras until I found my new favorite.

Day 45: Fri, 8/27: 203.6 Walked 1.3 miles, 2108 cal, 135 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Scan of leg veins to determine swelling in one ankle + 1st shot of Shingrix (shingles) Vaccine. Needless to say eating fried chicken for lunch and then Italian dinner out did not soothe my feelings or help my progress on the scale. Rain and low energy yesterday and today.
Day 46: Sat, 8/28: 203.0 Walked 3.2 + .7 miles, 1496 cal, 127 net carbs, AF. Headache & fatigue kicked my butt after the Thursday shingles vaccine … read & slept a ton. Feeling better this morning.

7th Week Actual Weight: 203.0 (7 day avg 203.2)
7th Week Weight Loss: -1.6
Posting a loss this week but disappointed since I let the 201.x slip away and I’m stuck at a higher weight than I wish. Back to the habits that work!
Day 47: Sun, 8/29: 203.1 No Exercise … worked on design to remodel the entire downstairs of our house instead with DD who is a commercial interior designer.

Day 50: Wed, 9/1: 204.6 Walked 2.4 miles, 2257 cal, 141 net carbs, 1 glass of wine. Slice of Berry Chantilly Cake on top of a late dinner.

Day 51: Thurs, 9/2: 204.3 No morning exercise, feeling blah, walked 1 mile in the evening, 1730 cal, 130 net carbs, 1 glass wine w/ frozen pizza. DH met with allergist over Zoom and he thinks we might have covid … constant headaches for days w/ fatigue, tightness in DH’s chest … prescribed Prednisone for DH. Went to 8 local pharmacies and they were out of the rapid covid test (BinaxNOW). Scheduled PCR Covid 19 test Thursday morning but won’t have the results for 2-5 days. Our son has a rapid covid test and is dropping it off today. Good news is that we are both vaccinated. Not sure where we would have picked up covid … restaurant? grocery store? My sister that is an elementary teacher? Moved trip to fishing camp out to the next weekend.
Day 52: Fri, 9/3: 204.1 Walked 3 + 3.8 miles, 1588 cal, 116 net carbs, AF. Our son brought us a BinaxNOW covid home test kit … it was negative! So we both must have really bad colds since Sunday.

Day 57: Wed, 9/8: 203.1 Walked 3.2 + 1.4 miles, Swam 400 meters, Treaded Water 7 min, 1402 cal, 78 net carbs, AF. The neighborhood olympic size lap pool reopened after being closed for 2 weeks for maintenance! Remaining calories in the green! This has been a tough 10 days with 6 in the red and only 4 in the green. No wonder I was gaining weight. Turning that ship around and focusing on staying in the green.
Day 58: Thurs, 9/9: 202.3 Walked 4 miles, Strength Class 1 hr, 1357 cal, 91 net carbs, AF. Didn’t accomplish much today outside of menu planning, groceries, cooking, and exercising … oh and reading “This Tender Land” by William Kent Krueger and listening to “The House in the Cerulean Sea” by TJ Klune. Headed to the fishing camp today for a long food & drink weekend where exercise is challenging. Before I leave planning to attend strong & fit strength class this morning.
Day 59: Fri, 9/10: 203.7 @ fishing camp 🎣 Strength Class 1 hr, no walking, 5 hrs in the car, 1599 cal, 139 net carbs, not enough water. 1.5 bottles of Michelob Ultra at the Community BBQ event hosted by one of the resort camps and held at Dirty Reds outside bar … get to know your neighbors (free brisket & beer)
Day 60: Sat, 9/11: DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 Walked 3.4 miles, fishing … caught 21.5” & 23” Redfish, 1405 cal, 68 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.

Day 57 – 09/08 …..187.6…..(Trend weight 187.9)
Day 58 – 09/09 …..188.8……(Trend weight 187.9) I totally blew it last night after logging out of MFP. And now, today I travel for two CT scans. There will be dinner out and lots of inactivity. I may skip weighing in tomorrow because I just can’t take anymore stress at this point (and we all know I ALWAYS gain after travel). I will post weight on Saturday but will check in tomorrow to give you all my 100% support. Well man coming tomorrow morning (again) so maybe this time I can get permanent resolution. Please say prayers and send positive vibes on these CT scans. It involves possible cancer.
Day 59 – 09/10 …..DNW……Ttrend weight DNW) They stopped my diabetic medications Wednesday night and I can’t begin taking them again until Sunday morning to protect the kidneys. Hopefully, knowing that, I will be able to do better on my eating. Today the well company comes back. Of course, it breaks down when they are NOT here, instead of when they are. This time, I hope they can figure out from the patterns what is going on. Praying it’s adjustments and not new pump or well. I am starving already (which happens after a day of eating with all caution to the wind). It won’t be easy, but I’ve got to be creative today and make it a good day.
Day 60 – 09/11 .….189.2……(Trend weight 188.3) I expected an uptick after that travel. It was likely higher and is working it’s way down. Results on the CT scans are in. Liver lesions are suspected to be multiple cysts, benign. The lung nodule grew wider and longer but it is still slow growing since 2019 and cancer should be growing faster. So, no invasive biopsy at this time. More CT scans in the future for re-check. Breast issues being addressed at the cancer center on the 16th. I don’t know what to expect there. On another note, the well company never showed up. Water is flowing if I baby it, but the pressures are off and I really need them. No show, no cancellation call. I’m pretty peeved. I am going to try for an easy restful day because my emotions have been all over the place. Drywall man is already here but I will fit in movement when I can. I’ve got to try to keep diet on point but that has been proving so difficult lately……
Day 61 – 09/12 …..188.4……(Trend weight 188.3) I planned an easy day yesterday but changed my mind and decided to start cleaning windows. I started upstairs and the frames looked like they hadn’t been done in years although the glass itself didn’t look too bad (I’ve been here less than a year). Up & Down stairs all day to take each piece out to clean with soapy water and hose before the windex. Putting them in is proving difficult. They are the older style and it’s hard to get them past the main wooden frame. I will definitely be replacing windows here & there as I can afford to starting next spring (I hope). I burned a ton of extra calories and kept my diet good until my late night snack. Then, essentially, I blew it. However, the calorie burn and the good meal planning all day saved it. Down 0.8 this morning. I will try for another good day. Lots more work to do.
