    100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ January 30, 2022 through May 9, 2022
    My Name is Donna, Age 61. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA


    145320379.png

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s




    “We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou

    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 195.2

    Day 01…..01/30….197.6…..(Trend weight 194.6)
    Day 02…..01/31…..197.0…..(Trend weight 194.9)

    Day 03…..02/01…..197.0…..(Trend weight 195.1)
    Day 04…..02/02…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.3)
    Day 05…..02/03…..195.8…..(Trend weight 195.4)

    Day 11…..02/09…..193.4…..(Trend weight 195.1
    Day 12…..02/10…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.2)
    Day 13…..02/11…..194.8…..(Trend weight 195.1)
    Day 14…..02/12…..197.8…..(Trend weight 195.4)
    Day 15……02/13…..197.4…..(Trend weight 195.6)

    Day 16…..02/14…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) A great day yesterday which I am disappointed did not reflect on the scale. Over 14,000 steps, over 6 miles and 3047 calories burned overall including my normal expenditure. Diet was light and on-point. No cheats. The scale is playing games with me but I know if I stay on point it will eventually have to be honest. I was proud of yesterday. The numbers were all in hard work cleaning out master bdrm to get new bedroom set and that was a back and forth chore. But I worked really hard! Going thru lots of clothes today too. No point in putting back in things I’m not wearing or no longer like. I know I had some dietary cheats this week that are probably reflecting on the scale today. So today I pay the piper and hope for a better tomorrow.

    Day 17…..02/15…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.8) There’s the drop I was hoping for. Lots of calorie burn again yesterday still sorting through the bedroom. Lots of storage in there from the living room project that is underway so extra stuff ugh! Living room is moving right along. Drywall dusty but looking good. I’ve been keeping the diet on point and hope to keep up the momentum today. Going through more clothing and “STUFF” today so there should be a good calorie burn again.

    Day 18…..02/16…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.7) This is a couple of good days in a row of diet and movement finally showing up in a bigger better way. Yesterday was another very good day on both fronts until…..that late night bagel (Starving!) with honey butter on it and the handful of jolly ranchers (couple hundred calories?). Glad I didn’t sabotage the scale with it, unless it shows up later……To be continued.

    Day 19…..02/17…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.7) Up & Down by about a pound and a half over and over. It’s getting annoying. Diet on point all day. A little less movement than the prior couple of days but still not too bad. I’m thinking it’s those jolly ranchers from the other day. But still…..that is a big jump on the scale!


    Day 20…..02/18…..194.2…..(Trend weight 195.6) Well, after what appeared to be a very serious house fire filled with smoke I found out that it was my well pump that burned up. Smoke got into the cold air register making the smoke get transferred to all 3 floors. Breathing was difficult but it was obvious it was something I could shut down at the electrical box. Now, no water until God Himself knows. Rural area here. Limited resources. Need a 1.5 HP jet deep well pump with dual inlet. Can’t seem to find one anywhere in America. I would like new, but I can’t even find one used. House size requires no less than that. And the well man (only one in my town) is not sure he knows how to even install this type. I have no idea what I am going to do at this point. Smdh. No answers.

    Day 21…..02/19…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.4) I just need water. To drink, to bathe, to do dishes, to do laundry, to wash my hands! No answers. Where are my husband and brother when you need them? Oh, that’s right. They are in heaven. Maybe God will help then. Prayers requested please.


    Day 22…..02/20…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.5) The up & down of the 1.5 pounds is really getting annoying! Great quantities yesterday. Steps & movement back up again. No snacks whatsoever. I think maybe it was the choices even though I am sure they were all within proper calorie levels. Gotta trust & move forward I guess.

    Day 23…..02/21…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.6) A better week for sure but the renovations are still limiting my ability to exercise or get in enough movement, as well as my privacy. My short term goal is to hit the 180’s again and then hang on for dear life. I am picturing the man from “Up” holding on to those balloons. I need to get moving, hang on for dear life but enjoy the ride! Oh, and I need to keep promises….even to myself.


    Day 24…..02/22…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) The well company never showed up for the appointment and never answered multiple calls. Pretty typical in my rural area. Not too many skilled trades like to travel to the multiple small towns that need service. My handyman put in a call to another company who said they would try to come today but we are in the midst of a winter storm warning with freezing rain and snow mix. I don’t know if they will come in this weather. Cortisol and stress eating and drinking last night (chocolate milk). The scale knows all your secrets.


    Day 25…..02/23…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.8) Very low calorie burn yesterday but the diet was better. The other well company showed up bright & early this morning. This will cost way more than I planned and they are trying to figure out if a new type of pump (vertical) jet pump will fit in the space as they feel that will be more efficient than the horizontal pump that I have right now. They will call me later. Hopefully all will go well and they can get me on their schedule soon. Jury duty, however, tomorrow and Friday unless the evening call to the court house tells me the trial is off. Life is a tangled ball of yarn right now but it sounds like the knots are closer to being out. Continue prayers please and thanks to everyone for the well wishes.


    Day 26…..02/24…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.0) Alarming! Looking back, yesterday was actually a pretty good day. Not perfect but pretty good all around. I’m truly not sure what happened. I’ll see what the scale tomorrow brings. And Water…..I have water. The new company responded quickly. It was expensive and there is no doubt I will need a new well at some point, but I’m going to make this nearly $3000.00 spent count for awhile. Happy camper here. Jury duty was cancelled for today. I’m not sure about tomorrow yet. I have to call the court house later.


    Day 27…..02/25…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.2) Bad day all around yesterday. Jury duty this morning.
    Day 28…..02/26…..196.2…..(Trend weight 196.2) Jury duty was cancelled after 2 hours yesterday when the defendant did not show up. Bench warrant issued. He said car broke down in another town and no where to get there. I guess he has been holding the court off for 1 ½ years and they are tired of it. I don’t know that I would have been picked. He was named and I know that it was a sexual abuse case between him (62+ year old man) and a 9 year old girl. He also forced his 11 year old son to abuse her as well. A horrific case on all counts. Lots of forensic evidence and his own two sons, now aged 12 1/2 and 9 are testifying against him as witnesses. It’s a small town. There are no secrets and These things are not tolerated. The last abuse case was a 30 yr old man with a 3 years old. He was given life in prison with no possibility of parole between all the charges they placed on him. This fella knows he’s in big trouble. I’m glad likely won’t have to be a part of it. I don’t need to know those details. I really struggle with things in regards to children and animals.

    Day 29…..02/27…..197.0…..(Trend weight 196.4) Yesterday turned out to be a horrible day for me, but especially for everyone around me. It just feels like everything bad caught up to me. I had such a horrible sense of pressure and stress and took it out on nearly everyone. Last night, laden with guilt, I had mini food binges, couldn’t sleep, and this morning no TMI so I’m not surprised the scale is up. Guilt is heavy.

    Day 30…..02/28…..198.2…..(Trend weight 196.5) A good day eating, a moderate day in exercise. I have out-of-town company visiting me and other family members in the area until next Monday. I’m not sure why the scale crept up. Probably lack of sleep (again) and stress from the past couple of days.

    Weight Loss in February:……………….. 1.2 lb gain (all overnight)
    Total Accumulated Weight Loss….. 3.0 lb gain since challenge start


    Day 31…..03/01…..196.6…..(Trend weight 196.5) I ate the same EXACT things as the day before but instead of a gain there was a loss. It’s a very strange fight that we fight! Keeping the faith!

    @deepwoodslady

    Yes indeed Donna, it sometimes seems to make little sense.
    So exact same portions, exact same numbers on the MFP tracker for food portions and exercise?
    I ate exactly the same for a year and gained 10 pounds. I am such a creature of routine. I am out of my routine now eating all of this brown rice every day, but it will likely become routine for me fairly quickly.

    A drop on the scale is always welcome. Sometimes it is from something 3 days ago that causes a loss or gain with our age and metabolism.

    Track every bite GF and a trend will emerge. You were down to 183 by tracking consistently.

    Where is our friend @Lilylady3k ?

    I am Dawn.
    I have gained weight the last few 100s
    Time to turn that around

    61 years old, 5'2"
    Highest weight 207
    Ultimate goal weight 110-115
    This is my 9th round on this forum, I joined it at 158.6


    Day 22: Sun: 2/20: 138.2 - Such a long way still to my ideal weight, healthy body weight. I feel like health becomes more important the older that we get, and weight is a huge part of that and something that is within our control.
    Day 23: Mon: 2/21: 138.8 - Either a fluctuation or still paying for Friday eve. It is a holiday here today, glad to be working, extra $$ for a stat holiday.
    Day 24: Tues: 2/22: Missed
    Day 25: Wed: 2/23: 138.2 - Going to have a steak and prawns for dinner tonight. This cold snap has really affected my joints this time around, especially my hands. I will loosen up the other joints with bouts of Fitness Marshall throughout the day. Got to keep it all greased right?
    Day 26: Thurs: 2/24: 139.6 - Calories on point all week, activity on point. These fluctuations would be easier to take if they were in the 120s. I will get there one day. Late night ahead tonight.
    Day 27: Fri: 2/25: 138.6 - Fridays after work are usually my indulgent day. Too bad our weeks on here always fall on a Saturday morning ;)
    Day 28: Sat: 2/26: 140.2 - Ow.

    4th Week Goal Weight: 135
    4th Week Actual Weight: 140.2
    Excess calories burned (Green on the MFP food tracker): 3854 - hit my target of 500 per day on average. I was in the red on Friday

    Day 29: Sun: 2/27: 140.8 - I feel like less than that, but it was an extremely early weigh in.

    Day 30: Mon: 2/28: Day 1 of my 7 day cleanse 141.4 - Highest since September 2020. Looking forward to seeing how my body responds to eliminating a few things. No cream in my coffee this morning.
    Day 31: Tues: 3/1: Day 2 of my 7 day cleanse - 138.2 - I added cinnamon to my coffee brew this morning, of course I would rather have cream. No bloating after coffee yesterday like I am used to. It is only day 2, so far that is the only thing that I have noticed.
    Day 32: Wed: 3/2: Day 3 of my 7 day cleanse
    Day 33: Thurs: 3/3: Day 4 of my 7 day cleanse
    Day 34: Fri: 3/4: Day 5 of my 7 day cleanse
    Day 35: Sat: 3/5: Day 6 of my 7 day cleanse

    5th Week Goal Weight: 135
    5th Week Actual Weight:

    Start weight this 100: 138.4 - Highest start weight for the last 4 100s

    Day 21…..02/19…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.4)
    Day 22…..02/20…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.5)


    Day 23…..02/21…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.6) A better week for sure but the renovations are still limiting my ability to exercise or get in enough movement, as well as my privacy. My short term goal is to hit the 180’s again and then hang on for dear life. I am picturing the man from “Up” holding on to those balloons. I need to get moving, hang on for dear life but enjoy the ride! Oh, and I need to keep promises….even to myself.


    Day 24…..02/22…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) The well company never showed up for the appointment and never answered multiple calls. Pretty typical in my rural area. Not too many skilled trades like to travel to the multiple small towns that need service. My handyman put in a call to another company who said they would try to come today but we are in the midst of a winter storm warning with freezing rain and snow mix. I don’t know if they will come in this weather. Cortisol and stress eating and drinking last night (chocolate milk). The scale knows all your secrets.


    Day 25…..02/23…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.8) Very low calorie burn yesterday but the diet was better. The other well company showed up bright & early this morning. This will cost way more than I planned and they are trying to figure out if a new type of pump (vertical) jet pump will fit in the space as they feel that will be more efficient than the horizontal pump that I have right now. They will call me later. Hopefully all will go well and they can get me on their schedule soon. Jury duty, however, tomorrow and Friday unless the evening call to the court house tells me the trial is off. Life is a tangled ball of yarn right now but it sounds like the knots are closer to being out. Continue prayers please and thanks to everyone for the well wishes.


    Day 26…..02/24…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.0) Alarming! Looking back, yesterday was actually a pretty good day. Not perfect but pretty good all around. I’m truly not sure what happened. I’ll see what the scale tomorrow brings. And Water…..I have water. The new company responded quickly. It was expensive and there is no doubt I will need a new well at some point, but I’m going to make this nearly $3000.00 spent count for awhile. Happy camper here. Jury duty was cancelled for today. I’m not sure about tomorrow yet. I have to call the court house later.


    Day 27…..02/25…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.2) Bad day all around yesterday. Jury duty this morning.
    Day 28…..02/26…..196.2…..(Trend weight 196.2) Jury duty was cancelled after 2 hours yesterday when the defendant did not show up. Bench warrant issued. He said car broke down in another town and no where to get there. I guess he has been holding the court off for 1 ½ years and they are tired of it. I don’t know that I would have been picked. He was named and I know that it was a sexual abuse case between him (62+ year old man) and a 9 year old girl. He also forced his 11 year old son to abuse her as well. A horrific case on all counts. Lots of forensic evidence and his own two sons, now aged 12 1/2 and 9 are testifying against him as witnesses. It’s a small town. There are no secrets and These things are not tolerated. The last abuse case was a 30 yr old man with a 3 years old. He was given life in prison with no possibility of parole between all the charges they placed on him. This fella knows he’s in big trouble. I’m glad likely won’t have to be a part of it. I don’t need to know those details. I really struggle with things in regards to children and animals.

    Day 29…..02/27…..197.0…..(Trend weight 196.4) Yesterday turned out to be a horrible day for me, but especially for everyone around me. It just feels like everything bad caught up to me. I had such a horrible sense of pressure and stress and took it out on nearly everyone. Last night, laden with guilt, I had mini food binges, couldn’t sleep, and this morning no TMI so I’m not surprised the scale is up. Guilt is heavy.

    Day 30…..02/28…..198.2…..(Trend weight 196.5) A good day eating, a moderate day in exercise. I have out-of-town company visiting me and other family members in the area until next Monday. I’m not sure why the scale crept up. Probably lack of sleep (again) and stress from the past couple of days.

    Weight Loss in February:……………….. 1.2 lb gain (all overnight)
    Total Accumulated Weight Loss….. 3.0 lb gain since challenge start


    Day 31…..03/01…..196.6…..(Trend weight 196.5) I ate the same EXACT things as the day before but instead of a gain there was a loss. It’s a very strange fight that we fight! Keeping the faith!

    Day 32…..03/02…..197.4…..(Trend weight 196.4) Late night snacks were over the top and just too much at once and at all. Well problems again today even with the new well pump. The pump was kicking on & off quickly when using water and grinding somewhat. Sounded bad and I knew it wasn’t right. I called the well company back and they said my bladder must be bad. I had a new one put in about a year ago but they said it is definitely bad. The hardware store ones (home depot etc) are just not good. Also, of course, they cannot warranty any but their own. They said they would give me a break and do it for $900.00. That will be between 3 and 4 thousand total on a too small well that will need to be replaced at some point. Why me? Did I stress eat last night or just crave eat? I dunno.

    @dawnbgethealthy True....I have not been logging and I know how much that helps! But I also have to contribute gain to some pretty bad emotional eating especially during the illness and death of my brother. Also, those holidays and all that grandma baking. Time to get back to business but not today. My son has hair appointment and I always take him out as reward for doing well in the salon (autism issues.) Soon....very soon.... Or nothing will change for me, I know.

    Yes, you have been through so much!
    And now more water problems!!!
    Big hugs GF.

    For sure, get back to tracking, it will be something in your life routine for your health and well being.

    Your Karma is due for a swing in the other direction. Thinking of you.

    I am Dawn.
    I have gained weight the last few 100s
    Time to turn that around

    61 years old, 5'2"
    Highest weight 207
    Ultimate goal weight 110-115
    This is my 9th round on this forum, I joined it at 158.6




    Day 29: Sun: 2/27: 140.8 - I feel like less than that, but it was an extremely early weigh in.

    Day 30: Mon: 2/28: Day 1 of my 7 day cleanse 141.4 - Highest since September 2020. Looking forward to seeing how my body responds to eliminating a few things. No cream in my coffee this morning.
    Day 31: Tues: 3/1: Day 2 of my 7 day cleanse - 138.2 - I added cinnamon to my coffee brew this morning, of course I would rather have cream. No bloating after coffee yesterday like I am used to. It is only day 2, so far that is the only thing that I have noticed.
    Day 32: Wed: 3/2: Day 3 of my 7 day cleanse - 137.0 - Although it has been 11 years since I last did this cleanse (which I used to do twice per year) I am remembering things about it. Day 5 is usually when I start to feel the effects. My MFP tracker shows a marked increase in my fibre intake which was dismally low, so that is good for the organs.
    Day 33: Thurs: 3/3: Day 4 of my 7 day cleanse
    Day 34: Fri: 3/4: Day 5 of my 7 day cleanse
    Day 35: Sat: 3/5: Day 6 of my 7 day cleanse

    5th Week Goal Weight: 135
    5th Week Actual Weight:

    Start weight this 100: 138.4 - Highest start weight for the last 4 100s

    100 Days of Accountability 1/30-5/9
    I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

    Female, Age 61, 5’3”
    Challenge Starting Weight: 212 (1/29)
    Challenge Goal: <200
    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) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
    2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022)
    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
    🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
    * Prior to Oct roadtrip damage: 205
    * 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195
    * Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
    * Onederland: 199

    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 2022 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/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 1: Sun, 1/30: 211.4 Walked 3.9 miles, 1823 cal (-99 red), 100 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
    Highly recommend this recipe for a London Broil. I cooked it twice now ... in the oven and grilled and both turn out great. Love the marinade (2-12 hrs). I used Tamari (Japanese form of soy sauce) instead of the Coconut Aminos. Think I’m going to try the marinade out on chicken next.
    https://www.wholesomeyum.com/london-broil/#What_Is_London_Broil
    Day 2: Mon, 1/31: 210.1 Walked 3 miles, 1763 cal (-112 red), 65 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. The above marinade works wonders with chicken legs! Completed menu plan and grocery list for this week. Also prepped the Unit 1 for volunteer teaching ESL/LEM (Learn English Ministry).Day 3: Tues, 2/1: 210.2 Rain so no walk, Strength Training 1 hr, 1867 cal (-350 red), 51 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Successful grocery shopping trip this morning led to following through with my menu planning for lunch & dinner! BONUS: I did NOT pick up a Snickers at the checkout when grocery shopping.
    Day 4: Wed, 2/2: 211.8 Walked 1.5 miles, 2082 cal (-575 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine + bourbon & diet sprite. Skipped strength training class since I’m teaching English on Tues & Thurs mornings now. I need to find a new exercise schedule that works! Loved my new photography with the cell phone class! Great plan for both lunch & dinner. HOWEVER, the community center gave me a box of fried rice, egg roll and fortune cookie to celebrate lunar new year when I went to class. I took it home and added it to our dinner … which took me into the red for the day.
    Day 5: Thurs, 2/3: 212.2 Walked 1.3 miles, 2033 cal (-569 red), 71 net carbs, Torchy’s Tini. Crazy day driving up early after not sleeping well to babysit granddaughter while my DIL went to doctor, both lunch & dinner dined out, no real exercise … short walk but skipped my strength training class in the evening because I was exhausted. Terrible excuses and the number on the scale is a reflection of my poor choices.
    Day 6: Fri, 2/4: 210.1 Walked 1.3 miles, 1690 cal (-199 red), 63 net carbs, 1 bourbon & diet sprite. Watched the 2007 movie Waitress on Amazon. Then watched on YouTube the Sara Bareilles concert What’s Inside - Songs From Waitress (music she created for the broadway play). It really gave insight to songs that I’ve heard her sing but didn’t know the background.
    Cold for us in Houston this morning. 29degress wet weather so schools are closed for the day.
    Day 7: Sat, 2/5: 209.9 No walk, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine. Dinner at my daughter’s home. Requested to bring dessert so made lemon raspberry cupcakes for Fri & Sat night.

    1st Week Goal Weight: <210
    1st Week Actual Weight:209.9
    1st Week Weight Loss: 2.1
    Cold & wet weather kept me from exercising as much plus the volunteer teaching that overlaps with my exercise class. But those are just excuses … I can do much better with the meals, snacks and exercise. No choice on the meals Fri & Sat night but I did do well with portion control! I was the only one that didn’t go back for seconds.

    Day 8: Sun, 2/6: 211.0 Walked 3.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 blackberry liquor w/ club soda + 1 glass wine. Lunch at restaurant and then dinner at our friend’s home.
    Day 9: Mon, 2/7: 212.1 Walked 3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. All the lemon raspberry cupcakes are now consumed! That was a yummy but terrible diet killer. Ate ~2-3 each day … Fri, Sat & Sun. Tried out a fun recipe Supreme Pizza (no crust) in a cast iron skillet. DH loved it too. I used Italian sausage instead of hamburger. https://lowcarbquick.com/deep-dish-pizza-casserole-keto
    Day 10: Tues, 2/8: 212.1 Walked 1 mile, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Accomplished a lot of to dos that have been on my list for a month … serviced car, submitted paperwork to HOA for window & siding replacement, dog to vet, etc etc.
    Day 11: Wed, 2/9: 212.4 Walked 2.9 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
    Day 12: Thurs, 2/10: 211.4 Walked 2.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Lunch w/ DD. Purchased way too many cookies at the bakery and the grocery store! What was I thinking? Ate at least half a dozen.
    Day 13: Fri, 2/11: 211.9 Walked 2.9 + .8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Outside of volunteer teaching English … what did I accomplish? Definitely ate the rest of the cookies which was not helpful!
    Day 14: Sat, 2/12: 213.3 Strength Training 1 hr, No walk … lunch with DD, DIL and granddaughter, late afternoon drive with DH & our dog with the windows down on a beautiful day, happy hour glass of wine at 4pm and people watched. Too many snacks in the evening and not enough will power … total wine for the day 4 glasses.

    The I don't give a dxxx attitude has got to stop. No more buying bakery cookies and eating a dozen. No more gobbling down chips at lunch and then snacking on them after dinner too. Eating out almost every day is also killing my good intentions. Mentally I'm a mess when it comes to wanting to lose the weight and it shows on the scale. I've gained back everything I lost in 2021.
    Made my menu for this week. Plan to grocery shop today and put healthier items in the pantry. Also need to get back to more exercise ... slacking off on the walking because I'm driving into town more often to meet up with my daughter and daughter-in-law for lunch multiple days. No excuse ... I could still walk on these days.


    Day 15: Sun: 2/13: 213.0 No exercise but busy all day meal planning, groceries, making decorations for baby shower, reading, visiting, etc. ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
    Day 16: Mon: 2/14: 212.1 Walked 2.8 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Super Bowl and did fairly well food wise … since I brought the veggies & dips and boiled shrimp. Dinner grilled hamburger no bun.
    Day 17: Tues: 2/15: 213.5 Walked 1.2 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 glass wine.
    Day 18: Wed: 2/16: 210.5 SICK (sinus infection tested negative for covid) all day Tuesday. No exercise. Lots of sleep. ? cal, ? net carbs, AF.
    Day 19: Thurs: 2/17: 211.0 Walked .9 miles. Started my normal walk but then it started to rain. ? cal, ? net carbs, 1 margarita. Worked on my long to do list and led book club at a new restaurant we wanted to try out. Mexican food and it looks like it will be a popular place for our group in the future.
    Day 20: Fri: 2/18: 211.9 Walked 2.9 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not a great eating day. Frozen pizza for lunch and then a pot pie for dinner. I did snack on bell pepper strips and carrots with black bean hummus as a snack.
    Day 21: Sat: 2/19: 211.4 No walk, Strength Training 1 hr, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. My son & DIL drove in from Austin to show us their new puppy. So much energy and you have to watch them all the time. But it was a wonderful socialization & intro to another dog since ours is calm and loving. They got a doberman w/ floppy ears and we have a standard poodle. Explosion of toys everywhere!

    3rd Week Goal Weight: < 210
    3rd Week Actual Weight: 211.4
    3rd Week Weight Loss: 1.9

    Day 22: Sun: 2/20: 212.1 Walked 2.9 + 1.3 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Completely lost my voice due to sinus infection. Took another covid PCR like test using CUE to ensure that DH and I do not have covid before leaving this morning to Baton Rouge. Did not want to expose everyone since there will be 3 sets of great grandparents, 3 sets of grandparents and lots of children under age 9 at the baptism.
    Day 23: Mon: 2/21: DNW No exercise. Travel day for granddaughter’s baptism in Baton Rouge. Lots of cookies. 1 Bloody Mary @ brunch; 2 wine @ dinner
    Day 24: Tues: 2/22: 213.8 Walked 2.8 miles, missed my Strength Training class since travel day. AF at book club in the evening but ate the entire meal and did not half it like I should. Still suffering from sinus infection. :(
    Day 25: Wed: 2/23: DNW Walked .6 miles. AF! Taught class with very little vocal … which really makes it difficult for the adult students to understand me in the Learn English Ministry. Today we get my daughter’s dogs (2 golden doodles) while she and her husband go on vacation to celebrate her 30th birthday. How/When did I get old enough to have kids in their 30s? No getting enough sleep. This past week with the sinuses has made it very difficult to lie down and sleep. I’m a walking zombie and very much out of my routine of meal planning and exercise.
    Day 26: Thurs: 2/24: 112.4 No exercise … cold outside and now I have 3 large dogs which is harder to walk by myself. EXCUSES! Worked a hard puzzle all day that has been on my dining room table since Christmas. I gave myself a goal to finish it this week. I should give myself a few other health related goals! AF!
    Day 27: Fri: 2/25: 213.4 Walked 1.2 miles, ? cal, ? net carbs, AF. Bundled up … DH & I got out and walked the 3 dogs :) Teaching ESL and working my puzzle. I called in reinforcements to help with the puzzle .. bribed my sister with red beans & rice + corn bread. Watched Free Guy on Disney. That was a fun movie.
    Day 28: Sat: 2/26: 212.4 Walked 1.2 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 2 wine.

    Day 21…..02/19…..194.4…..(Trend weight 195.4)
    Day 22…..02/20…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.5)


    Day 23…..02/21…..196.0…..(Trend weight 195.6) A better week for sure but the renovations are still limiting my ability to exercise or get in enough movement, as well as my privacy. My short term goal is to hit the 180’s again and then hang on for dear life. I am picturing the man from “Up” holding on to those balloons. I need to get moving, hang on for dear life but enjoy the ride! Oh, and I need to keep promises….even to myself.


    Day 24…..02/22…..197.6…..(Trend weight 195.8) The well company never showed up for the appointment and never answered multiple calls. Pretty typical in my rural area. Not too many skilled trades like to travel to the multiple small towns that need service. My handyman put in a call to another company who said they would try to come today but we are in the midst of a winter storm warning with freezing rain and snow mix. I don’t know if they will come in this weather. Cortisol and stress eating and drinking last night (chocolate milk). The scale knows all your secrets.


    Day 25…..02/23…..196.4…..(Trend weight 195.8) Very low calorie burn yesterday but the diet was better. The other well company showed up bright & early this morning. This will cost way more than I planned and they are trying to figure out if a new type of pump (vertical) jet pump will fit in the space as they feel that will be more efficient than the horizontal pump that I have right now. They will call me later. Hopefully all will go well and they can get me on their schedule soon. Jury duty, however, tomorrow and Friday unless the evening call to the court house tells me the trial is off. Life is a tangled ball of yarn right now but it sounds like the knots are closer to being out. Continue prayers please and thanks to everyone for the well wishes.


    Day 26…..02/24…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.0) Alarming! Looking back, yesterday was actually a pretty good day. Not perfect but pretty good all around. I’m truly not sure what happened. I’ll see what the scale tomorrow brings. And Water…..I have water. The new company responded quickly. It was expensive and there is no doubt I will need a new well at some point, but I’m going to make this nearly $3000.00 spent count for awhile. Happy camper here. Jury duty was cancelled for today. I’m not sure about tomorrow yet. I have to call the court house later.


    Day 27…..02/25…..198.0…..(Trend weight 196.2) Bad day all around yesterday. Jury duty this morning.
    Day 28…..02/26…..196.2…..(Trend weight 196.2) Jury duty was cancelled after 2 hours yesterday when the defendant did not show up. Bench warrant issued. He said car broke down in another town and no where to get there. I guess he has been holding the court off for 1 ½ years and they are tired of it. I don’t know that I would have been picked. He was named and I know that it was a sexual abuse case between him (62+ year old man) and a 9 year old girl. He also forced his 11 year old son to abuse her as well. A horrific case on all counts. Lots of forensic evidence and his own two sons, now aged 12 1/2 and 9 are testifying against him as witnesses. It’s a small town. There are no secrets and These things are not tolerated. The last abuse case was a 30 yr old man with a 3 years old. He was given life in prison with no possibility of parole between all the charges they placed on him. This fella knows he’s in big trouble. I’m glad likely won’t have to be a part of it. I don’t need to know those details. I really struggle with things in regards to children and animals.

    Day 29…..02/27…..197.0…..(Trend weight 196.4) Yesterday turned out to be a horrible day for me, but especially for everyone around me. It just feels like everything bad caught up to me. I had such a horrible sense of pressure and stress and took it out on nearly everyone. Last night, laden with guilt, I had mini food binges, couldn’t sleep, and this morning no TMI so I’m not surprised the scale is up. Guilt is heavy.

    Day 30…..02/28…..198.2…..(Trend weight 196.5) A good day eating, a moderate day in exercise. I have out-of-town company visiting me and other family members in the area until next Monday. I’m not sure why the scale crept up. Probably lack of sleep (again) and stress from the past couple of days.

    Weight Loss in February:……………….. 1.2 lb gain (all overnight)
    Total Accumulated Weight Loss….. 3.0 lb gain since challenge start


    Day 31…..03/01…..196.6…..(Trend weight 196.5) I ate the same EXACT things as the day before but instead of a gain there was a loss. It’s a very strange fight that we fight! Keeping the faith!

    Day 32…..03/02…..197.4…..(Trend weight 196.6) Late night snacks were over the top and just too much at once and at all. Well problems again today even with the new well pump. The pump was kicking on & off quickly when using water and grinding somewhat. Sounded bad and I knew it wasn’t right. I called the well company back and they said my bladder must be bad. I had a new one put in about a year ago but they said it is definitely bad. The hardware store ones (home depot etc) are just not good. Also, of course, they cannot warranty any but their own. They said they would give me a break and do it for $900.00. That will be between 3 and 4 thousand total on a too small well that will need to be replaced at some point. Why me? Did I stress eat last night or just crave eat? I dunno.


    Day 33…..03/03…..196.2…..(Trend weight 196.6) The well company made an adjustment and we’re hoping the bladder is okay. So I didn’t have to put out the extra $900 yesterday. Let’s hope this works! An average day yesterday with food and exercise/movement yet there is a drop. I just keep bouncing back & forth and my inconsistencies are showing up on the scale with inconsistent weights. Perhaps that will speak to me loud enough. I did make a few better tweaks to my dinner but those night time snacks are just over the top.
