@dawnbgethealthy - Lovely that you are back home and I'm glad that your trip has many wonderful memories. Sorry for the ending ... but that memory will hopefully fade sooner than later. Enjoy your time before beginning the work routine!2

First Monday of the month and I have not weighed in for a week now. Lots of indulgences over the past week with my daughter and grandbaby staying with us while her husband was in London (Sun-Thurs). My mom visiting (Wed-Mon). Girls trip with my sister and mom to a 90th birthday party for mom's friend that she has known for 62 years (Fri-Sun). 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.

Well, accomplished little since I got home, up every 20-30 minutes to the toilet (tmi, I know)
I feel a lot better today, which is good because I am going on almost permanent split shifts at least 4 out of 5 workdays, and have 7 resets to do for Foster Grant that I am somehow going to need to fit into my mornings and afternoon break.
My laptop died. I bought a new one, there were many things to set up and transfer. Just figured out how to link my printer this morning (install new drivers) so that I can begin to print out what I need for my Foster Grant jobs.
I got the grass cut in intervals, staying close to home.
Got out in nature Saturday and Sunday, chose trails with bathrooms lol.
I haven't posted on any of my other forums, no time right now, I have to get a small workout in before a long workday and pack some sort of food - made a big rice cooker of white basmati, which soothes my belly and hopefully absorbs and remaining bad stuff in my gut.
Thanksgiving here next weekend.
@Lilylady3k and @deepwoodslady
The 3 of us are up way too much since last September. Let's knuckle down and get rid of those pounds!2 -
I am Dawn.
5'2", 62 (no blue eyes, but it still rhymes, so coochie coochie coo if anyone knows that song)
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)
Day 39: Sun, 9/25: 139.7 - My lower legs and feet were swollen by last evening. Water? Up 1.3 pounds since yesterday. Going to take it easy today, I have had enough sun and am nicely brown, don't need to walk up and down hills to town for any reason whatsoever. I had been thinking of going for a Mexican breakfast, but that would require sunblock and a bunch of hills. I have enough food in the fridge, plus they only serve until 11:30 and it is now 11:16 here. I will get some workouts on youtube here and there, drink coffee, read a book, maybe make myself a Margarita in the blender later : - )
Day 40: Mon, 9/26: 141.0 - Bloated, swollen, tummy not feeling the best, got some sun rash on my forearms yesterday after applying sunscreen to them which I normally don't do (only on my face and chest), so mostly stayed out of the sun and had to wear long sleeves in the heat while venturing out to Centro
Day 41: Tues, 9/27: 140.6 - This was before 3 big eliminations after water and coffee (tmi I know) so I expect that it is less. Packing up my laptop today for a few days of travel back. My scale will be accessible while in LA, but I won't be hooking up my laptop to post. I will arrive home late Wednesday night so will check back in on Thursday or Friday. I don't fly out until after 6pm tonight, so it will be tough to stay out of the sun and water all day. I will get some Youtube workouts in for sure.
Day 42: Wed, 9/28: 141.5 - In LA after losing all of my guts for a full day that started Tuesday at noon. How could I have gained?
Day 43: Thurs, 9/29: 139.8 - Back at home
Day 44: Fri, 9/30: 140.4 - Whatever, tomorrow's will be much worse because I am going to blow it out tonight with Ribs.
Day 45: Sat, 10/1: 141.6 - Ribs, but first solid food in 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.
Excess calories burned (in the green): 1294 - dismal, but ... Rib day put me far into the red
Day 46: Sun: 10/2: 141.4 - Had a good healthy dinner, chicken breast, 2 veggies, 1/2 cup of rice, 1/4 tbsp of butter, 2tbsp mayo (for my brussels sprouts). Had an hour out on a nice trail (4 times around)
Day 47: Mon, 10/3: 140.8 - First day back to work, and it will be a very long day. Dinner is prepped, but it will be very late.
Day 48: Tues, 10/4:
Day 49: Wed, 10/5:
Day 50: Thurs, 10/6:
Day 51: Fri, 10/7:
Day 52: Sat, 10/8:
8th Week Goal Weight:
8th 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.2 -
Hi all. I am no longer in weight loss mode so my plan for the 100 days is to stick in my maintenance range of 160-165. I will be using this color coding legend:

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.

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, 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/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.

Day 30: Fri, 9/16: DNW Gardened. I took a Sudafed before going to bed last night and I think it disrupted my sleep. Felt like I was half awake most of the night. NOTE to self: Downside to decongestants is that they can cause insomnia. It acts as a stimulant. GOOGLED at 5am this morning.

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 7K steps today. 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.

I am Dawn.
5'2", 62 (no blue eyes, but it still rhymes, so coochie coochie coo if anyone knows that song)
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,

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

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
Day 46: Sun: 10/2: 141.4 - Had a good healthy dinner, chicken breast, 2 veggies, 1/2 cup of rice, 1/4 tbsp of butter, 2tbsp mayo (for my brussels sprouts). Had an hour out on a nice trail (4 times around)
Day 47: Mon, 10/3: 140.8 - First day back to work, and it will be a very long day. Dinner is prepped, but it will be very late.
Day 48: Tues, 10/4: 140.4 - Trying to eat as much as possible to get my health back. Not getting on here every day to post, but tracking everything and weighing.
Day 49: Wed, 10/5: 139.4 - This is the only forum that I am taking a few minutes for, I am too tight for time since getting back from holiday, with work. I will get to the garden on the weekend. Garlic planting needs to be done : - )

Day 52: Sat, 10/8:
8th Week Goal Weight: 137.7 (start weight of this 100 since we are passing the 1/2 way point)
8th 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.3 -

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.

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 7K steps. Better on the water 72 oz, vitamins and tracked all the food (1806 cal) … yep the chocolates too.

Need to be taking more calcium because I’m not getting the minimum the doc requested.

Bought an app for my phone to track habits instead of writing them down on a piece of paper. Wonderful that I can add daily, weekly and monthly habits ... think I'm going to like this. I'm a check list type person and marking things as done or toward completion helps me visualize and feel like I've accomplished something.

I'll adjust as I go I'm sure. Here is a quick snapshot from yesterday and the 10 goals I'm tracking.
