Day 65-10/21-201.8-(Trend weight 200.4) I did great yesterday until I didn’t. At least I was able to move more, get in more steps and a bit more activity.

@dawnbgethealthy
Good on you for logging in your meals. I stopped doing that. I get obsessive with it and then it ends up taking too much of my time. However, I love MFP to help with motivation and to connect with people from its community.
Didn’t really take another vacay, just an outer island weekender to Oahu. Took my dad to see the touring Broadway production of Jersey Boys. It’s a great show I can see again and again. Had some good ramen while there. Full of sodium but oh so good! 😀
Funny how you and @deepwoodslady are discussing Thai red curry. It’s on my menu this week. 😀
Have a great weekend!3 -
I’m Teri
Age 59, Height 5’4”
I live on Maui
This is my first time doing any kind of challenge. I am back on MFP for the umpteenth time, but this time (hopefully) going all in: be consistent with logging into MFP and exercise at least 4x/week.
Challenge Starting Weight: 144 (8/18)
Challenge Goal: 136 (might be unrealistic due to a 12 day vacation in Sep. But we’ll see)
Challenge Ending Weight:
Total Weight Loss for Challenge:
Day 61: Mon, 10/17:
Day 62: Tues, 10/18:
Day 63: Wed, 10/19: 142.3
Day 64: Thurs, 10/20: 141.9 - I’m back. Really struggled with eating well, putting in time to exercise and logging into MFP since returning from vacation on 09/12, plus I took another short trip a couple of weeks after that. This is typical Teri behavior: I start off well, but once I veer off path I can’t seem to get back on. It’s something I really need to work on. I admire the consistency of others. Now to catch up on reading to find out what everyone in this group has been up to in the past month! Glad to be back!
Day 65: Fri, 10/21: 141.6 – Belly still feels/looks bloated this morning. I had some white rice with dinner last night and 2 small cookies afterward. Ugh! But I did get some exercise in (45 min. on the Peloton – about 10 miles), proud of myself for that.4 -
Thank you, @Miyoka_Tata !

@Lilylady3k
I can relate to your plan for October. I had to have a plan laid out (menu/meal prep as well as exercise schedule) in order to get back on track, which I veered off of since Sep 1st when I left for vacation. I always struggle getting back on the wagon. I see my vitamins of choice are similar to yours: Calcium, Women’s One a Day 50+, & Vitamin D. I also take a probiotic. We can do this!
@bteri107 - I was derailed! Trying to get back on track! Thanks for the note

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
Day 1: Thurs, 8/18: 222.7 Walk 1.5 miles with granddaughter in stroller. DIL & I took turns swimming laps at the pool while the other played with my 7 month old granddaughter who loves the water. Down a little from the highs of our last round. Success especially after book club at a Mexican restaurant last night. The chips & salsa filled me up before the chicken verde enchiladas arrived. The win is that I didn't order any margaritas or wine AND I replaced the rice & beans with a side salad. Another choice I made is when ordering fast food for lunch is I got the grilled chicken sandwich without the bun ... still had the fries which I shared with the baby & dogs and brought out the watermelon from the fridge to round out the meal.
Day 2: Fri, 8/19: 221.6 Walked 1 mile and swam a few laps.
Day 3: Sat, 8/20: 222.4 RAIN! No walk.
1st Week Goal Weight: <222

Needless to say I'm scared to actually step on the scale in October.
This morning I woke up early and decided if my jeans are going to fit this fall I need to get back to better habits and routines! I threw out my larger sizes last year LOL!!! I know I'm up at least 20-25 lbs from last fall where I was upset in Oct going from 201 -> 206 after a trip and seemed to slide ever since. I'm somewhere around 225-227 which is crazy stupid of me to let the pounds pile back on.
Today there are no excuses. It is a great week for me to get back on track. After taking my mom to the airport at noon ... I have absolutely no plans (well except volunteering teaching for 1.5 hrs on Tues & Thurs mornings).
SOoooo my plan is
1. Exercise every day of October (skipping only 1 day per week). This can be walking, biking, strength training, swimming!
2. Start drinking more water! The lunch time Diet Coke habit that slipped in needs to stop. The 3 cups of morning coffee is too much. The wine with dinner every night is not necessary.
3. Begin journalling my food intake ... today! It doesn't matter what the target is calorie or carb or fat ... I just need to get back into the habit.
4. Oh and where are those vitamins the doctors insist I need to take daily. No other meds at this time are required and I want to keep it like that health wise.
Day 48: Tues, 10/4: 226.3 Walked 1.25 miles. Started my habit tracking! Decent day. Need to work on water (32 of 80 oz), 10K steps since I only got 8K today. But I got out and walked, vitamins, and tracked my food (every bite 1797 cal). So I’ll call it a good day.
Day 49: Wed, 10/5: 225.7 Walked 1.3 miles, total 7400 steps. Better on the water 72 oz, vitamins and tracked all the food (1806 cal) … yep the chocolates too.
Doctors Advised: Calcium 1200 mg, D3 2000 IU, B12 2000mg, Zeaxanthin 6 mg, Lutein 6 mg,
Vitamins: Multivitamin One a Day Women’s 50+ (A 3500 IU, C 120 mg, D 1000 IU, Calcium 500mg, E 30 IU, K 20 mcg, Thuamin(B1) 4.5 mg, Riboflavin (B2) 3.4 mg), B12, D3, Lutein & Zeaxathin combo which is an eye vitamin. Need to be taking more calcium because I’m not getting the minimum the doc requested.
Day 50: Thurs, 10/6: 225.8 Walked 4 miles, biked 15 min, total 14020 steps. 64 oz water, vitamins, tracked all the food again! (1957 cal)
Day 51: Fri, 10/7: 224.3 Walked to and from ESL volunteer teaching instead of driving … it is only .5 mile each way but I did it! First time this year breaking the lazy habit of jumping into the car to go everywhere. Also caught up my Happy Scale daily weigh in logs so that I can monitor the trends again. Check off tracking food (1667 cal) and vitamins. Really poor on water 48oz, steps (7000+). Making some progress and need to not get impatient.
Day 52: Sat, 10/8: 224.6 Strength Training 1 hr, walked to the library to pick up a book instead of driving the car 2.2 miles. Total steps for the day 9400. Completed tracking food and took my vitamins. Finally got lots of water! (88oz). Dinner out with friends to Sylvia’s Enchilada Kitchen. Of course I had the chicken enchilada verde but traded the rice & beans for a side salad.
8th Week Goal Weight: No goal weight! JUST DO IT! Step on the scale and try each day to create better habits!
8th Week Actual Weight: 224.6
Day 53: Sun: 10/9: 225.1 No exercise and lacked water while eating lots of food but keeping portions small and no snacking because I was too busy socializing and driving across Houston multiple times (total 3-4 hrs in the car). I did track all the food (1588 cal) & took vitamins. LSU game & son’s 32nd birthday party for lunch with red beans, sausage, rice, corn bread, and carrot cake ... stuffed! Then pizza for dinner while babysitting my 3 month old granddaughter. Terrible eating day and no time for exercise. Today will be better!
Day 54: Mon, 10/10: 225.9 No exercise. Chose to shop with my sister instead. Then I gave in with desserts, wine, etc at dinner at her house. Terrible healthy habits day (2022 cal, 40oz water, 3744 steps). I can check off vitamins only.
Day 55: Tues, 10/11: 225.6 Walked 2.8 miles, so so day on exercise and terrible eating day fried chicken lunch and red beans & sausage w/rice for dinner… lacking healthy green veggies (1910 cal, 48oz water, tracked all food, vitamins).
Day 56: Wed, 10/12: 226.3 Walked 1 mile for ESL class. Lost track of my food journal, water, didn’t take vitamin, etc etc.
Day 57: Thurs, 10/13: 226.2 @ 3:30am; 225.5 @ 6:30am Slipped up and didn’t do much of anything … broke those darn good habits hanging out with my sister today at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MAFA), shopping, etc. Did take my vitamin!
Day 58: Fri, 10/14: 224.9 Strength Training Class, took my vitamin and drank lots of water. Other than that I didn’t hit any of my healthy habit goals. Made really cute Rice Krispie Treats for the church bazaar this weekend. Put them in individual ziplocks so that I don’t eat them! LOL
Day 59: Sat, 10/15: 226.7 No exercise and lots of food. Only got my vitamin habit in for the day. Think Pink (breast cancer) fundraiser luncheon and after all the free flowing prosecco during the 3 hr event I didn’t get anything done in the afternoon.

Visiting my mom for a long weekend at our camp house where we moved her into when we sold her house next door this summer. She is liking the smaller space and all one level which is great! The place was my grandfather's 2nd house, then my aunt used it, then my mom bought out my aunt when their dad passed and rented it out for years, then my mom sold it to me 5 years ago. This weekend my chore is to finish cleaning out the house of all the previous owners stuff that I didn't deal with earlier. Especially the garage and attic since they were packed with junk that no one ever tossed. Donating to the voluntary fire dept garage sale that is held annually 1st weekend of November. We made a pile for my aunt & uncle of their stuff they probably forgot was here. We also went through mom's clothes yet again. She moved from a house with 4 closets and 5 chest of drawers to my house with no closets and 1 chest of drawers ... there are 2 small antique armoires. Taking more to the consignment shop today.

I am Dawn.
5'2", 62
I live in SE BC Canada
This will be my 11th round on this forum out of 13 of them.
I have gained weight in 4 out of the last 5 100s
I enjoy being on this journey with y'all. Weight loss requires a lot of work! We are worth it though.
I aim to have an average of 500 calories in the Green each day, so I track my excess. I get in a good deal of activity and dance workouts. Like, if you had to pick a body type that you wanted to have, you do that sort of activity I think. Dance for me unlocks my creaky joints, lifts my spirits, stretches me out, works all of the muscles and is super fun. I do the 3-4 minute song variety, it keeps me up with what the "kids" are listening to : - )
1st Week Goal Weight: 137.5
1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8 Started at 137.7,
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2548, /4 = 637 average
2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.9 (ambitious I know, but my trip will be coming up)
2ndWeek Actual Weight: 139.6
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2342, burned lots, but ate more. Missed my 500, average = 334.5
3rd Week Goal Weight: 137 until I hit it
3rd Week Actual Weight: 140.1
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4210, average of 588.57 over 7 days
4th Week Goal Weight: 136
4th Week Actual Weight: 139.5, started the week at 140.9
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4066 - 580.85 average over 7 days
5th Week Goal Weight: I will be in Mexico, but lets say 136
5th Week Actual Weight: 138.2?? I forget. Flew out Tuesday September 13th to vacay
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4003, 571.85 average over 7 days
6th Week Goal Weight - Didn't really have one.
6th Week Gain/Loss - Don't know really, I missed that first day of our week - Ended at 138.4
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4924 = 703.43 average over 7 days (hills in every direction in Zhihua)
7th Week Goal Weight: Didn't have one.
7th Week Actual Weight: 141.6 - Body is not functioning right with the Mexico sickness after effect.
Excess calories burned (in the green): 1294 - dismal, but ... Rib day put me far into the red
8th Week Goal Weight: 137.7 (start weight of this 100 since we are passing the 1/2 way point)
8th Week Actual Weight: 138.2 - dipped slightly below my start weight one day
Excess calories burned (in the green): 3778, average over 7 days 539.7
9th Week Goal Weight: 136.8
9th Week Actual Weight: 137.6
Excess calories burned (in the green): 3965 = 566.4 average over 7 days
Day 60: Sun, 10/16: 139.0 - Back to weekday style eating tonight, but at a reasonable hour. Expecting a better number tomorrow.
Day 61: Mon, 10/17: 141.6 - Egads. I don't get it. Very long day digging in the yard yesterday. I am trying to get certain stuff in before the deep freeze starting next weekend. One more pepper/onion bed to harvest before that. I am working out of town today and then 3 split shifts in a row after that with my Foster Grant jobs before and during my breaks, so running out of town for the garden. The root vegetables should be good. I don't like to pull the beets until I am ready to peel and process them or the skins get too soft to peel after a day or two.
Day 62: Tues, 10/18: 139.8 - Going into 3 4 very long workdays with late dinners. I felt like last week my body was kind of getting used to that. It will have to, since my schedule is going to be like this going forward. Yesterday's weight scared me, it could have been from something that I ate (drank)on Friday catching up to me on Monday? I am back to healthy choices, but weigh more now than when I was in Mexico!!
Day 63: Wed, 10/19: 138.6 - Another restaurant shift got added for me, plus I am so busy with Foster Grant this month and the garden has to get harvested. Too tired! Glad to see that at least my weight went down a bit this morning : - )
Day 64: Thurs, 10/20: 137.8 - I was ravenously hungry yesterday, but no time to eat. I had prepped a nice healthy dinner early in the morning, but by the time that I finally got home I think that I was just too tired. I ate snacks only and had 2 black russians. I will have that dinner tonight - honey garlic pork cubes cooked in the toaster oven with my own potatoes, 1/2 cup rice topped with tzatziki, my own raw red onions and bell peppers and brussels sprouts with 1/2 fat mayo.
Day 65: Fri, 10/21: 138.8 - Up a pound from yesterday, very late dinner and up way too early in the morning, I don't think that it is a true gain. Having said that, I loosen it up on the weekends and TGIF, just one more very long workday today.
Day 66: Sat, 10/22: 139.4 - Ate a couple of those long pork ribs, the package said back ribs, but they weren't the kind that I normally eat a whole rack of. It was 2 bones. Still tired today, that was a very long work week. My whole body is sore, but I will likely get a couple of workout songs in at some point
10th Week Goal Weight: 136.0

Excess calories burned (in the green):
Start weight this 100: 137.7 (136.0 start weight the previous 100)
Goal weight this 100: 127.7 - Very unrealistic, especially since I will be in Mexico for a good chunk of September and I am going to eat all of the yummy foods and drink a few Margaritas/Cervezas for sure. The most that I have ever lost in the 100 day challenge was 7 pounds once. In the 7 100s in which I actually lost weight it was more like 2-3 pounds loss over 100 days.3 -
I’m Teri
Age 59, Height 5’4”
This is my first time doing any kind of challenge. I am back on MFP for the umpteenth time, but this time (hopefully) going all in: be consistent with logging into MFP and exercise at least 4x/week.
Challenge Starting Weight: 144 (8/18)
Challenge Goal: 136 (might be unrealistic due to a 12 day vacation in Sep. But we’ll see)

Day 63: Wed, 10/19: 142.3 -
Day 64: Thurs, 10/20: 141.9 - I’m back. Really struggled with eating well, putting in time to exercise and logging into MFP since returning from vacation on 09/12, plus I took another short trip a couple of weeks after that. This is typical Teri behavior: I start off well, but once I veer off path I can’t seem to get back on. It’s something I really need to work on. I admire the consistency of others. Now to catch up on reading to find out what everyone in this group has been up to in the past month! Glad to be back!
Day 65: Fri, 10/21: 141.6 – Belly still feels/looks bloated this morning. I had some white rice with dinner last night and 2 small cookies afterward. Ugh! But I did get some exercise in (45 min. on the Peloton – about 10 miles), proud of myself for that.
Day 66: Sat, 10/22: 141.9 – Feel the same as yesterday. Ate well yesterday, and then chili w/rice for dinner which probably is the reason I feel bloated today. No exercise.

For our anniversary, my husband and I went to a cooking class together.
We made a three course meal at the class, and it came with wine.
It was a lot of fun - we really enjoyed ourselves.
Thanks for asking!3 -

Day 67-10/23-202.0-(Trend weight 200.7) Man, that trend weight really jumped! Yesterday was an excellent day actually. My handyman showed up and got some things done. I reached goals on my steps, miles, stairs, and had an overall great calorie burn. I wish the drop had been more.

@ashleycarole86
That sounds like a lovely way to be together on your anniversary. 3 courses, what did you make?
@deepwoodslady
Really happy to see this morning that you had a handyman yesterday. Is this your old one who used to do work on your resort and lives in another town now?
One good day might take a few days to show up on the scale, one bad day will do that too.1 -
I am Dawn.
5'2", 62
I live in SE BC Canada
This will be my 11th round on this forum out of 13 of them.
I have gained weight in 4 out of the last 5 100s
I enjoy being on this journey with y'all. Weight loss requires a lot of work! We are worth it though.
I aim to have an average of 500 calories in the Green each day, so I track my excess. I get in a good deal of activity and dance workouts. Like, if you had to pick a body type that you wanted to have, you do that sort of activity I think. Dance for me unlocks my creaky joints, lifts my spirits, stretches me out, works all of the muscles and is super fun. I do the 3-4 minute song variety, it keeps me up with what the "kids" are listening to : - )
1st Week Goal Weight: 137.5
1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8 Started at 137.7,
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2548, /4 = 637 average
2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.9 (ambitious I know, but my trip will be coming up)
2ndWeek Actual Weight: 139.6

Excess calories burned (in the green): 4003, 571.85 average over 7 days

7th Week Goal Weight: Didn't have one.
7th Week Actual Weight: 141.6 - Body is not functioning right with the Mexico sickness after effect.

8th Week Goal Weight: 137.7 (start weight of this 100 since we are passing the 1/2 way point)
8th Week Actual Weight: 138.2 - dipped slightly below my start weight one day

12th Week Goal Weight:
12th Week Actual Weight:
Excess calories burned (in the green):
Start weight this 100: 137.7 (136.0 start weight the previous 100)
Goal weight this 100: 127.7 - Very unrealistic, especially since I will be in Mexico for a good chunk of September and I am going to eat all of the yummy foods and drink a few Margaritas/Cervezas for sure. The most that I have ever lost in the 100 day challenge was 7 pounds once. In the 7 100s in which I actually lost weight it was more like 2-3 pounds loss over 100 days.1 -

@dawnbgethealthy
The appetizer was mushroom toasties, the main was apricot harissa chicken wrapped in a puff pastry lattice with beans and tomatoes, and the dessert had a name I'd never heard but it was essentially a hazelnut, butter and sugar mixture pulsed in a food processor and baked between brioche and topped with Cointreau whipped cream. There was slightly more to it but yeah.. everything was so, so tasty!2 -
So proud of all of you for continuing to push. It’s so inspiring, keep it up💕✨2

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
Day 1: Thurs, 8/18: 222.7 Walk 1.5 miles with granddaughter in stroller. DIL & I took turns swimming laps at the pool while the other played with my 7 month old granddaughter who loves the water. Down a little from the highs of our last round. Success especially after book club at a Mexican restaurant last night. The chips & salsa filled me up before the chicken verde enchiladas arrived. The win is that I didn't order any margaritas or wine AND I replaced the rice & beans with a side salad. Another choice I made is when ordering fast food for lunch is I got the grilled chicken sandwich without the bun ... still had the fries which I shared with the baby & dogs and brought out the watermelon from the fridge to round out the meal.

Day 25: Sun, 9/11: 224.5 Walked 1.3 miles. Guessing that the slight headache & fatigue are from the booster yesterday. Not bad but sleep pattern was off Friday night and so while I accomplished some things Saturday DH & I were pretty lazy.

Needless to say I'm scared to actually step on the scale in October.
This morning I woke up early and decided if my jeans are going to fit this fall I need to get back to better habits and routines! I threw out my larger sizes last year LOL!!! I know I'm up at least 20-25 lbs from last fall where I was upset in Oct going from 201 -> 206 after a trip and seemed to slide ever since. I'm somewhere around 225-227 which is crazy stupid of me to let the pounds pile back on.
Today there are no excuses. It is a great week for me to get back on track. After taking my mom to the airport at noon ... I have absolutely no plans (well except volunteering teaching for 1.5 hrs on Tues & Thurs mornings).
SOoooo my plan is
1. Exercise every day of October (skipping only 1 day per week). This can be walking, biking, strength training, swimming!
2. Start drinking more water! The lunch time Diet Coke habit that slipped in needs to stop. The 3 cups of morning coffee is too much. The wine with dinner every night is not necessary.
3. Begin journalling my food intake ... today! It doesn't matter what the target is calorie or carb or fat ... I just need to get back into the habit.
4. Oh and where are those vitamins the doctors insist I need to take daily. No other meds at this time are required and I want to keep it like that health wise.
Day 48: Tues, 10/4: 226.3 Walked 1.25 miles. Started my habit tracking! Decent day. Need to work on water (32 of 80 oz), 10K steps since I only got 8K today. But I got out and walked, vitamins, and tracked my food (every bite 1797 cal). So I’ll call it a good day.
Day 49: Wed, 10/5: 225.7 Walked 1.3 miles, total 7400 steps. Better on the water 72 oz, vitamins and tracked all the food (1806 cal) … yep the chocolates too.
Doctors Advised: Calcium 1200 mg, D3 2000 IU, B12 2000mg, Zeaxanthin 6 mg, Lutein 6 mg,
Vitamins: Multivitamin One a Day Women’s 50+ (A 3500 IU, C 120 mg, D 1000 IU, Calcium 500mg, E 30 IU, K 20 mcg, Thuamin(B1) 4.5 mg, Riboflavin (B2) 3.4 mg), B12, D3, Lutein & Zeaxathin combo which is an eye vitamin. Need to be taking more calcium because I’m not getting the minimum the doc requested.
Day 50: Thurs, 10/6: 225.8 Walked 4 miles, biked 15 min, total 14020 steps. 64 oz water, vitamins, tracked all the food again! (1957 cal)
Day 51: Fri, 10/7: 224.3 Walked to and from ESL volunteer teaching instead of driving … it is only .5 mile each way but I did it! First time this year breaking the lazy habit of jumping into the car to go everywhere. Also caught up my Happy Scale daily weigh in logs so that I can monitor the trends again. Check off tracking food (1667 cal) and vitamins. Really poor on water 48oz, steps (7000+). Making some progress and need to not get impatient.
Day 52: Sat, 10/8: 224.6 Strength Training 1 hr, walked to the library to pick up a book instead of driving the car 2.2 miles. Total steps for the day 9400. Completed tracking food and took my vitamins. Finally got lots of water! (88oz). Dinner out with friends to Sylvia’s Enchilada Kitchen. Of course I had the chicken enchilada verde but traded the rice & beans for a side salad.
8th Week Goal Weight: No goal weight! JUST DO IT! Step on the scale and try each day to create better habits!
8th Week Actual Weight: 224.6
Day 53: Sun: 10/9: 225.1 No exercise and lacked water while eating lots of food but keeping portions small and no snacking because I was too busy socializing and driving across Houston multiple times (total 3-4 hrs in the car). I did track all the food (1588 cal) & took vitamins. LSU game & son’s 32nd birthday party for lunch with red beans, sausage, rice, corn bread, and carrot cake ... stuffed! Then pizza for dinner while babysitting my 3 month old granddaughter. Terrible eating day and no time for exercise. Today will be better!
Day 54: Mon, 10/10: 225.9 No exercise. Chose to shop with my sister instead. Then I gave in with desserts, wine, etc at dinner at her house. Terrible healthy habits day (2022 cal, 40oz water, 3744 steps). I can check off vitamins only.
Day 55: Tues, 10/11: 225.6 Walked 2.8 miles, so so day on exercise and terrible eating day fried chicken lunch and red beans & sausage w/rice for dinner… lacking healthy green veggies (1910 cal, 48oz water, tracked all food, vitamins).
Day 56: Wed, 10/12: 226.3 Walked 1 mile for ESL class. Lost track of my food journal, water, didn’t take vitamin, etc etc.
Day 57: Thurs, 10/13: 226.2 @ 3:30am; 225.5 @ 6:30am Slipped up and didn’t do much of anything … broke those darn good habits hanging out with my sister today at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MAFA), shopping, etc. Did take my vitamin!
Day 58: Fri, 10/14: 224.9 Strength Training Class, took my vitamin and drank lots of water. Other than that I didn’t hit any of my healthy habit goals. Made really cute Rice Krispie Treats for the church bazaar this weekend. Put them in individual ziplocks so that I don’t eat them! LOL
Day 59: Sat, 10/15: 226.7 No exercise and lots of food. Only got my vitamin habit in for the day. Think Pink (breast cancer) fundraiser luncheon and after all the free flowing prosecco during the 3 hr event I didn’t get anything done in the afternoon.

Day 66: Sat, 10/22: DNW @ Fishing Camp Eating my way through stress and over doing it. The scale is going to hit the roof when I return home. I need to stop! 🚫 Find my back to better habits.
Visiting my mom for a long weekend at our camp house where we moved her into when we sold her house next door this summer. She is liking the smaller space and all one level which is great! The place was my grandfather's 2nd house, then my aunt used it, then my mom bought out my aunt when their dad passed and rented it out for years, then my mom sold it to me 5 years ago. This weekend my chore is to finish cleaning out the house of all the previous owners stuff that I didn't deal with earlier. Especially the garage and attic since they were packed with junk that no one ever tossed. Donating to the voluntary fire dept garage sale that is held annually 1st weekend of November. We made a pile for my aunt & uncle of their stuff they probably forgot was here. We also went through mom's clothes yet again. She moved from a house with 4 closets and 5 chest of drawers to my house with no closets and 1 chest of drawers ... there are 2 small antique armoires. Taking more to the consignment shop today.

Day 67: Sun, 10/23: DNW @ Fishing Camp Busy day helping my mom clean out stuff, organize and then prep for her jewelry sale at the Christmas craft event in Dec. She doesn’t make jewelry, but she has tons of it picked up at estate sales. Huge tub of jewelry to be repaired stored away. She pulled out at least 20 watches, 75 necklaces, 100s of earrings, 30 bracelets, rings and other odds and ends. It will make a nice display with her 70 hats she plans to sell too.
Day 68: Mon, 10/24: 229.3 Very long drive home and then DH & I went to our daughter’s for dinner. So no exercise and lots of food. Now to reel things back in after my indulgence this past weekend.

I am Dawn.
5'2", 62
I live in SE BC Canada
This will be my 11th round on this forum out of 13 of them.
I have gained weight in 4 out of the last 5 100s
I enjoy being on this journey with y'all. Weight loss requires a lot of work! We are worth it though.
I aim to have an average of 500 calories in the Green each day, so I track my excess. I get in a good deal of activity and dance workouts. Like, if you had to pick a body type that you wanted to have, you do that sort of activity I think. Dance for me unlocks my creaky joints, lifts my spirits, stretches me out, works all of the muscles and is super fun. I do the 3-4 minute song variety, it keeps me up with what the "kids" are listening to : - )
1st Week Goal Weight: 137.5
1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8 Started at 137.7,
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2548, /4 = 637 average

2ndWeek Actual Weight: 139.6

7th Week Goal Weight: Didn't have one.
7th Week Actual Weight: 141.6 - Body is not functioning right with the Mexico sickness after effect.
Excess calories burned (in the green): 1294 - dismal, but ... Rib day put me far into the red
8th Week Goal Weight: 137.7 (start weight of this 100 since we are passing the 1/2 way point)
8th Week Actual Weight: 138.2 - dipped slightly below my start weight one day
Excess calories burned (in the green): 3778, average over 7 days 539.7
9th Week Goal Weight: 136.8
9th Week Actual Weight: 137.6

10th Week Goal Weight: 136.0
10th Week Actual Weight: 139.4
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2981, Friday and Saturday were high calorie days and kind of derailed my 7 days average which is 425. First time that I have not hit my 500
Day 74: Sun, 10/30: 140.0 - I really don't like to see that 4! I ate quite a bit over the weekend though, much more than usual.
Day 75: Mon, 10/31: 139.8 - Starting 4 days of split shifts today, which means later eating than I like. I peeled and cooked all weekend and got a good chunk of my garden cleared out, composted and mulched, and covered. Beets and Carrots are still in the ground, maybe I will have time next weekend. I made: Chorizo Potato Stew, Ground Beef (potato) Curry, and Pepperoni Potato Stew. Around 30 containers so far to put in the freezer. Mennonite Sausage will be the next Potato Stew to tackle, I just don't know when yet, the meats are in the freezer. BTW @deepwoodslady I grew low glycemic potatoes one year, they just tasted and cooked up like regular potatoes. I have never seen those in a grocery store however.

Excess calories burned (in the green):
Start weight this 100: 137.7 (136.0 start weight the previous 100)
Goal weight this 100: 127.7 - Very unrealistic, especially since I will be in Mexico for a good chunk of September and I am going to eat all of the yummy foods and drink a few Margaritas/Cervezas for sure. The most that I have ever lost in the 100 day challenge was 7 pounds once. In the 7 100s in which I actually lost weight it was more like 2-3 pounds loss over 100 days.3 -

That sounds like a lovely way to be together on your anniversary. 3 courses, what did you make?
@deepwoodslady
Really happy to see this morning that you had a handyman yesterday. Is this your old one who used to do work on your resort and lives in another town now?
One good day might take a few days to show up on the scale, one bad day will do that too.
@dawnbgethealthy Yes, he is the one who used to live in my area and moved back down to lower Michigan where he is originally from. He is good at everything he does but his availability is limited. I am giving him a gas allowance when he comes in addition to his pay. We are hoping he can pull it all together before the US Thanksgiving holiday in late Nov, but that's only a few weekends away. If not, he will get as much done as possible so this mom and grandma can have our traditional dinner at my house and the Christmas decorating can begin soon after.1 -

The appetizer was mushroom toasties, the main was apricot harissa chicken wrapped in a puff pastry lattice with beans and tomatoes, and the dessert had a name I'd never heard but it was essentially a hazelnut, butter and sugar mixture pulsed in a food processor and baked between brioche and topped with Cointreau whipped cream. There was slightly more to it but yeah.. everything was so, so tasty!

Day 68-10/24-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) I can’t believe I completely forgot to weigh this morning due to a small change in routine. Wow! Anyway, yesterday was so-so. My choices weren’t the greatest, but no big binge and no large meals. Not enough water or sleep so I’ll work on that today and tonight.

Age 59, Height 5’4”
This is my first time doing any kind of challenge. I am back on MFP for the umpteenth time, but this time (hopefully) going all in: be consistent with logging into MFP and exercise at least 4x/week.
Challenge Starting Weight: 144 (8/18)
Challenge Goal: 136 (might be unrealistic due to a 12 day vacation in Sep. But we’ll see)
Challenge Ending Weight:
Total Weight Loss for Challenge:
Day 1: Thurs, 8/18: N/A (my day 1 is tomorrow)
Day 2: Fri, 8/19: 142.9
Day 3: Sat, 8/20: 141.8
Day 4: Sun, 8/21: 142.1 Struggling with overeating and too many carbs.
Day 5: Mon, 8/22: 143.2 – A slight improvement in calorie intake from the day before. And way better in carbs and sugar.
Day 6: Tues, 8/23: 142.8 – Back to my starting weight. Stayed under in calories. No chips today
Day 7: Wed, 8/24: 143 – Thought I did well the last 2 days with caloric/carb intake and exercise. Weight not reflecting it. Can’t give up.
Day 8: Thurs, 8/25: - Did not weigh today. Was very disheartened by yesterday’s carb & calorie binge, along with no workout. Went way over on everything again today.
Day 9: Fri, 8/26: 143.7. Went over on calorie intake.
Day 10: Sat, 8/27:
Day 11: Sun, 8/28
Day 12
Day 31: Sat, 9/17: Back from vacation and on the mend from Covid. Did not weigh this morning (I’m afraid to… haha). I did not log in while away as there was no Internet on the ship for the first 4 days, and after that it was so spotty I just gave up. ANYWAY, I had a wonderful time and am now back on the wagon trying something new: Instead of a KETO lifestyle (I probably wasn’t doing it right, anyway), I am going to try the whole foods approach and of course, watching my sugar & carb intake… maybe even try being gluten free. I found some good influencers in this realm on YouTube and Instagram. Never giving up. Hope everyone is having a great day!
Day 33: Mon, 9/19: 141.5 – Finally brave enough to weigh myself. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I mean, I wish I was below 140 at this point but I didn’t gain while on vacation so I’ll take it! Tested positive for Covid yesterday, even tho I feel fine. I thought for sure I’d be negative already. Go figure. Ate well yesterday but still no exercise. Maybe later today.
Day 34: Tues, 9/20: 142 – Not surprised about the bump up in weight from yesterday. I went over on portion size (including the large portion of rice) during last night’s dinner. Today will be a better day.
Day 33: Wed, 9/21: DNW. I ate a lot but tried to stay mindful of what I was eating.
Day 34: Thur, 9/22: 140.8 - Feel less bloated today. Ate well until friends came over for a pre-birthday get together. Didn’t go overboard tho.

Day 63: Wed, 10/19: 142.3 -
Day 64: Thurs, 10/20: 141.9 - I’m back. Really struggled with eating well, putting in time to exercise and logging into MFP since returning from vacation on 09/12, plus I took another short trip a couple of weeks after that. This is typical Teri behavior: I start off well, but once I veer off path I can’t seem to get back on. It’s something I really need to work on. I admire the consistency of others. Now to catch up on reading to find out what everyone in this group has been up to in the past month! Glad to be back!
Day 65: Fri, 10/21: 141.6 – Belly still feels/looks bloated this morning. I had some white rice with dinner last night and 2 small cookies afterward. Ugh! But I did get some exercise in (45 min. on the Peloton – about 10 miles), proud of myself for that.
Day 66: Sat, 10/22: 141.9 – Feel the same as yesterday. Ate well yesterday, and then chili w/rice for dinner which probably is the reason I feel bloated today. No exercise.
Day 67: Sun, 10/23: 143.7 – Not happy with these numbers.
Day 68: Mon, 10/24: DNW – Caught up on lots over the weekend, but still managed to eat a lot too. Ate fairly ‘good foods’ but just too much of it. Haha. No workout over the weekend either. Hope to be more on it this week.4 -

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
Day 1: Thurs, 8/18: 222.7 Walk 1.5 miles with granddaughter in stroller. DIL & I took turns swimming laps at the pool while the other played with my 7 month old granddaughter who loves the water. Down a little from the highs of our last round. Success especially after book club at a Mexican restaurant last night. The chips & salsa filled me up before the chicken verde enchiladas arrived. The win is that I didn't order any margaritas or wine AND I replaced the rice & beans with a side salad. Another choice I made is when ordering fast food for lunch is I got the grilled chicken sandwich without the bun ... still had the fries which I shared with the baby & dogs and brought out the watermelon from the fridge to round out the meal.
Day 2: Fri, 8/19: 221.6 Walked 1 mile and swam a few laps.

Day 25: Sun, 9/11: 224.5 Walked 1.3 miles. Guessing that the slight headache & fatigue are from the booster yesterday. Not bad but sleep pattern was off Friday night and so while I accomplished some things Saturday DH & I were pretty lazy.

Needless to say I'm scared to actually step on the scale in October.
This morning I woke up early and decided if my jeans are going to fit this fall I need to get back to better habits and routines! I threw out my larger sizes last year LOL!!! I know I'm up at least 20-25 lbs from last fall where I was upset in Oct going from 201 -> 206 after a trip and seemed to slide ever since. I'm somewhere around 225-227 which is crazy stupid of me to let the pounds pile back on.
Today there are no excuses. It is a great week for me to get back on track. After taking my mom to the airport at noon ... I have absolutely no plans (well except volunteering teaching for 1.5 hrs on Tues & Thurs mornings).
SOoooo my plan is
1. Exercise every day of October (skipping only 1 day per week). This can be walking, biking, strength training, swimming!
2. Start drinking more water! The lunch time Diet Coke habit that slipped in needs to stop. The 3 cups of morning coffee is too much. The wine with dinner every night is not necessary.
3. Begin journalling my food intake ... today! It doesn't matter what the target is calorie or carb or fat ... I just need to get back into the habit.
4. Oh and where are those vitamins the doctors insist I need to take daily. No other meds at this time are required and I want to keep it like that health wise.
Day 48: Tues, 10/4: 226.3 Walked 1.25 miles. Started my habit tracking! Decent day. Need to work on water (32 of 80 oz), 10K steps since I only got 8K today. But I got out and walked, vitamins, and tracked my food (every bite 1797 cal). So I’ll call it a good day.
Day 49: Wed, 10/5: 225.7 Walked 1.3 miles, total 7400 steps. Better on the water 72 oz, vitamins and tracked all the food (1806 cal) … yep the chocolates too.
Doctors Advised: Calcium 1200 mg, D3 2000 IU, B12 2000mg, Zeaxanthin 6 mg, Lutein 6 mg,
Vitamins: Multivitamin One a Day Women’s 50+ (A 3500 IU, C 120 mg, D 1000 IU, Calcium 500mg, E 30 IU, K 20 mcg, Thuamin(B1) 4.5 mg, Riboflavin (B2) 3.4 mg), B12, D3, Lutein & Zeaxathin combo which is an eye vitamin. Need to be taking more calcium because I’m not getting the minimum the doc requested.
Day 50: Thurs, 10/6: 225.8 Walked 4 miles, biked 15 min, total 14020 steps. 64 oz water, vitamins, tracked all the food again! (1957 cal)
Day 51: Fri, 10/7: 224.3 Walked to and from ESL volunteer teaching instead of driving … it is only .5 mile each way but I did it! First time this year breaking the lazy habit of jumping into the car to go everywhere. Also caught up my Happy Scale daily weigh in logs so that I can monitor the trends again. Check off tracking food (1667 cal) and vitamins. Really poor on water 48oz, steps (7000+). Making some progress and need to not get impatient.
Day 52: Sat, 10/8: 224.6 Strength Training 1 hr, walked to the library to pick up a book instead of driving the car 2.2 miles. Total steps for the day 9400. Completed tracking food and took my vitamins. Finally got lots of water! (88oz). Dinner out with friends to Sylvia’s Enchilada Kitchen. Of course I had the chicken enchilada verde but traded the rice & beans for a side salad.
8th Week Goal Weight: No goal weight! JUST DO IT! Step on the scale and try each day to create better habits!
8th Week Actual Weight: 224.6
Day 53: Sun: 10/9: 225.1 No exercise and lacked water while eating lots of food but keeping portions small and no snacking because I was too busy socializing and driving across Houston multiple times (total 3-4 hrs in the car). I did track all the food (1588 cal) & took vitamins. LSU game & son’s 32nd birthday party for lunch with red beans, sausage, rice, corn bread, and carrot cake ... stuffed! Then pizza for dinner while babysitting my 3 month old granddaughter. Terrible eating day and no time for exercise. Today will be better!
Day 54: Mon, 10/10: 225.9 No exercise. Chose to shop with my sister instead. Then I gave in with desserts, wine, etc at dinner at her house. Terrible healthy habits day (2022 cal, 40oz water, 3744 steps). I can check off vitamins only.
Day 55: Tues, 10/11: 225.6 Walked 2.8 miles, so so day on exercise and terrible eating day fried chicken lunch and red beans & sausage w/rice for dinner… lacking healthy green veggies (1910 cal, 48oz water, tracked all food, vitamins).
Day 56: Wed, 10/12: 226.3 Walked 1 mile for ESL class. Lost track of my food journal, water, didn’t take vitamin, etc etc.
Day 57: Thurs, 10/13: 226.2 @ 3:30am; 225.5 @ 6:30am Slipped up and didn’t do much of anything … broke those darn good habits hanging out with my sister today at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MAFA), shopping, etc. Did take my vitamin!
Day 58: Fri, 10/14: 224.9 Strength Training Class, took my vitamin and drank lots of water. Other than that I didn’t hit any of my healthy habit goals. Made really cute Rice Krispie Treats for the church bazaar this weekend. Put them in individual ziplocks so that I don’t eat them! LOL
Day 59: Sat, 10/15: 226.7 No exercise and lots of food. Only got my vitamin habit in for the day. Think Pink (breast cancer) fundraiser luncheon and after all the free flowing prosecco during the 3 hr event I didn’t get anything done in the afternoon.

Visiting my mom for a long weekend at our camp house where we moved her into when we sold her house next door this summer. She is liking the smaller space and all one level which is great! The place was my grandfather's 2nd house, then my aunt used it, then my mom bought out my aunt when their dad passed and rented it out for years, then my mom sold it to me 5 years ago. This weekend my chore is to finish cleaning out the house of all the previous owners stuff that I didn't deal with earlier. Especially the garage and attic since they were packed with junk that no one ever tossed. Donating to the voluntary fire dept garage sale that is held annually 1st weekend of November. We made a pile for my aunt & uncle of their stuff they probably forgot was here. We also went through mom's clothes yet again. She moved from a house with 4 closets and 5 chest of drawers to my house with no closets and 1 chest of drawers ... there are 2 small antique armoires. Taking more to the consignment shop today.

She pulled out at least 20 watches, 75 necklaces, 100s of earrings, 30 bracelets, rings and other odds and ends. It will make a nice display with her 70 hats she plans to sell too.
