Glad that you are joining us! We have a few days left of this 100 and then we will start a new one. Daily accountability is a great tool.

Mini challenge by Donna, December 10-April 9th
December 10th weight: 143.2 (but I was 141.8 the following day so I might use that)
1st Week Goal Weight - 139.9
1st Week Actual Weight - 141.2 Started the week at 142.2
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4738 - average over 7 days 834
2nd Week Goal Weight - 141.0
2nd Week Actual Weight - 142.2 - Started the week at 143.0
Excess calories burned (in the green): Forgot to add this earlier - 4948 = 706.85 average over 7 days.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 139.4 - (Ambitious)
3rd Week Actual Weight: 144.2 - Somehow put on 3 pounds while down sick for 1 day! Started the week at 142.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 6063 = 866.14 average over 7 days - Really big calorie burn this past week except for the day that I was sick
4th Week Goal Weight: 139.6 - (Ambitious)
4th Week Actual Weight: 143.8 - Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3563 = 509 average over 7 days
5th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Not likely with holiday eating, but going to plunk in this number until I hit it. Turned out that Turkey dinners carefully portioned actually lost me weight this week.
5th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 - Started the week at 143.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 4496 = 642 average over 7 days.
6th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
6th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 145.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 986 - Even 1150 eating days didn't give me much excess because of low exercise during my sore ankle and subsequent steroid injection into it.
7th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
7th Week Actual Weight: 143.6 Started the week at 144.2. I had Ribs, and may have them one more time during this 100
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2762, 394.7 average over 7 days, I know that this needs to be higher to lose weight. Ankle is getting there, so hopefully soon I can get back to it.
8th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
8th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 143.8
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2983 = 426.14 - a little closer to my goal of 500 per day averaged out over the week.
9th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
9th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3791, which works out to an average of 541.57 over 7 days. First time that I have hit my goal of 500+ per week in quite a while, and it shows on the scale!
10th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
10th Week Actual Weight: 143.2 Started the week at 143.2
Excess calories burned (In the green): 1921 - 320.16 average over 6 days - not enough
11th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
11th Week Actual Weight: 143.4 - Started the week at 144.8, not good, topped out at 146.0!
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3783 = 540 average over 7 days
12th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
12th Week Actual Weight: 143.0 - Started the week at 143.6, topped out at 146.2 - my highest weight in 2 years
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3459 = 494.14 average over 7 days, close to my 500 goal
13th Week Goal Weight: Start weight, since there is only 10 days left, 142.2 or less
13th Week Actual Weight: 141.2 - Started the week at 143.2 - tested positive for Covid on Thursday morning.
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3771 = 538.71 average over 7 days. This was top loaded since I haven't had much activity since contracting Covid
Day 91 – 2/25 - 140.4 - I feel like it is just Covid burning calories as my body is trying to stave it off. I did get in a whole bunch of Fitness Marshall songs somehow in a haze. Considering that I can barely stand up this is weird. Gov.ca says to try to get physical activity in to help with Covid recovery. Not sure if I will get any in today, we'll see. Not putting any pressure on myself except to drink water. I have lost a significant amount of pounds in a few days. This might come right back when I am healthy again, but in the meantime I am very happy to see the drop.
Day 92 – 2/26 - 139.8 - I changed things up so much yesterday. Such low energy and exhaustion with the Covid that I wanted to try to eat some carbs. I made pasta (brown rice/spinach linguine) with my own garlic, oregano, sour cream and some shredded parmesan. I so rarely eat pasta, not a huge fan, but I felt like my body needed it for some reason. It was delicious, I made enough to have today also. Ready to go back to bed even though I am hungry. It seems like too much effort at the moment, I will at least try to have some toast or something and eat later. Happy to hit the 130s even though the higher end. Even in Mexico when I was drinking Margaritas and eating all of the yummy foods I never went above 138.1. I hope that the weight doesn't come back on when the Covid stops eating all of my calories. Not sure how I ever got back into the 140s at all.
Day 93 – 2/27 - 140.0 - Up a touch, hopefully that means that I am going to start to get better. Very tired, hard to stay awake, but giving myself the chance to sleep or at least just lie down. 4 full days have passed now since I tested positive. I am almost always asleep during the time that I would normally be at work.
Day 94 – 2/28 - 142.2 - Major re-feed yesterday. No regrets on that except for the scale of course. Really ready to start feeling better, but in a haze.
Day 95 – 3/1 - 141.6 - Still dizzy and exhausted. I am going to force myself to go put some clothes on and go outside for some fresh air and Sun vitamin D. Took out some healthy foods for a dinner later, had some oatmeal this morning, trying to give myself nutrition.
Day 96 – 3/2 - 142.0 - I ate 2 dinners last night. I am still trying to get some strength and stamina back.
Day 97 – 3/3 - 141.0 - I made enough dinner for 3 nights, re-visited the spinach rice pasta with lots of my own garlic, 1/4c shredded parm in the entire thing, and italian spices. Salad to go with it.
14th Week Goal Weight: 139.2
14th Week Actual Weight: 141.0 Started the week at 140.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): I will figure this out after today's numbers. My calories in have been good, but I haven't had a whole lot of energy for the calories out portion with Covid.

Didn't think I was going to make my goal as this week's been a bit unsettled with guests over the weekend and air travel mid week but thankfully things worked out. I expect my losses to slow down now as I get into the groove and past the initial water weight whoosh.

This week has gone by so fast! I've been feeling so fatigued lately, I don't know what's up but am thinking of making a doc appointment if it continues because I'm fed up with feeling slow and cold and down all the time. As predicted, I'm seeing my losses slow down now. I was trying to decide whether to adjust my weight loss goal for this challenge as I don't think 2lbs a week is realistic and I don't want to be demoralised by it, but I have decided to leave it as it is and see where I end up. If i lose 10lb rather than 15, that's still amazing!
Have a lovely weekend everyone

It's going slowly, but at least it's going! I think that at this point I really can't chance even one treat meal or slack day per week if I want to have any hope of losing 0.5 lbs a week. Not great for socialising!
My energy levels are feeling a lot better. Probably a combination of sunny days, getting past my totm, going to the gym, cutting alcohol out entirely, partially switching back to caffeinated coffee, taking multi vitamins (I have got some vit D which I started taking yesterday along with vit B and magnesium plus a multi vit), drinking more water, and generally feeling more positive. Yay!
I'm miles away from my weekly goals that I calculated based on a 2lb per week loss, hey ho. So it's going to take me 4 times as long to get to a healthy weight? Yikes. I should get there (143lbs) by my 43rd birthday at the end of August, so long as I stick at it...

Finally seeing some decent progress, especially in the last few days. I have been drinking much more water and have begun strength training alongside cardio in the hope of stimulating my metabolism. I had my TSH levels checked, 4.09, so just within the normal range but something to keep an eye on. Feeling hopeful for the week ahead, the longer days are lifting my spirits! Have a good weekend, everyone

It's been a positive week, I've been getting into a groove with my exercise habits, thanks in part to my new smart watch with lots of fun features providing motivation.
I've also been tweaking my calories and macros so that I'm getting more fuel and protein as I'm concerned that I've been losing lots of muscle through having too low calories and too many carbs. Drinking tons of water too, so I'm feeling a lot more alert and healthy.
A week and a bit left to go of this challenge, no chance of making my goal, which is a lesson for me in setting unrealistic targets! I'll be happy to finish the 100 having lost over 10lbs, but a little more would be nice too 😁

I mostly just used the @Miyoka_Tata format. Putting in the 100 dates was no joke, I did it manually.
@dawnbgethealthy I'm not sure that there is any other way except manually. That's how I do mine also. I usually work on the next round a few days at a time during the current round. When they changed the dates up on this last one by one day I wasn't redoing it all. That's why mine was 101 days last time. Yours is on track so I am grateful!0 -

101 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Nov 26, 2022 Starting Date
My Name is Donna, Age 62. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
My mini-challenge is to lose 10 pounds by Easter 2023. I started my efforts on Dec. 10th weighing 198.4. My wish is to weigh 188.4 by Easter April 9th, 2023. That gives me about 4 months to lose 10 pounds. Sounds easy but, trust me, it won’t be. Especially when outside exercise is so limited for me this slippery time of year!
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
Goal This Round: 181.2
Starting Weight (from End of Last Challenge): : 196.2
Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss.

Day 99-03/04-193.0-(Trend weight 193.1) Glad to see the bloat gone, but it looks like I’ve got some work to do. I would say that this is my true weight and it is up from earlier in the week. I am pre-logging, sipping on my water and planning some indoor exercise today. I babysat DGS until about 11:30 pm last night. I managed to keep the diet good but no exercise as I don’t have 20 straight minutes for ANYTHING when he is here. My daughter doesn’t work today so the day BELONGS to ME! No excuses! Only 2 more weigh-in days until the end of this round. I plan on seeing a drop both days. I want to get back closer to the 180’s again. Oh, how I would love to scratch off another decade on the top of this post! I need the turquoise GONE and I need to be working down the green!

Excess calories burned (In the green): 2762, 394.7 average over 7 days, I know that this needs to be higher to lose weight. Ankle is getting there, so hopefully soon I can get back to it.

8th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 143.8
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2983 = 426.14 - a little closer to my goal of 500 per day averaged out over the week.
9th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
9th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3791, which works out to an average of 541.57 over 7 days. First time that I have hit my goal of 500+ per week in quite a while, and it shows on the scale!

12th Week Actual Weight: 143.0 - Started the week at 143.6, topped out at 146.2 - my highest weight in 2 years
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3459 = 494.14 average over 7 days, close to my 500 goal
13th Week Goal Weight: Start weight, since there is only 10 days left, 142.2 or less
13th Week Actual Weight: 141.2 - Started the week at 143.2 - tested positive for Covid on Thursday morning.
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3771 = 538.71 average over 7 days. This was top loaded since I haven't had much activity since contracting Covid
14th Week Goal Weight: 139.2
14th Week Actual Weight: 141.0 Started the week at 140.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): I will figure this out after today's numbers. My calories in have been good, but I haven't had a whole lot of energy for the calories out portion with Covid.
Day 98 - March 04 - 141.6 - I thought it would be a lot more, I got pizza delivery from Dominos last night because there was a 50% of pizza coupon in my mailbox. Power of suggestion? I tried the gluten free crust, and a normal crust, each with different toppings (both small 10"). Both delicious. I tried not to eat too much of them, I am going to wrap the remaining slices individually and put them in the freezer.
Day 99 - March 05
Day 100 - March 06
Start weight of the 100: 142.2
Goal 132.2
Actual end weight:1 -
@dawnbgethealthy I flagged my posts inside the challenge I started and it gave me the opportunity to ask the powers that be to remove the entire challenge and it worked. Just thought I would let you know that it's off the grid now, no confusion for everyone 3

Working on my mental state and how I want to plan 2023 to not repeat 2022. Hope to rejoin you in this journey.
Day 39: 01/03 - 230.2 (@ 2am) - Back on track. Journal every bite, 80oz water, AF, packed away all the Christmas decor into the attic (lots of stairs). Decided that for January I will strive for lower carb days (not Keto) and cut out candy, cookies and bread but retain rice, potatoes and pasta in my menu planning.
Day 40: 01/04 - 230.4 (@ 4am) - Journal, 80oz water, AF, Strength Training 1 hr, walked to the library and the mail box twice (3.2 miles).
Day 41: 01/05 - 229.2 (@ 4:30am) - Journal, 64oz water, 2 wine, played with granddaughter all day which led to no snacking and pushing her new little tikes car .3 miles. DH bought groceries while I was out. REALLY wanted cookies after dinner but gave myself a good talking to and had black coffee instead.
Day 42: 01/06 - 229.0 - Journal, 48oz water, AF, Strength Training 1 hr, no walk. Broke my bread plan … avocado rye toast w/ poached egg for breakfast and then ate the biscuit with Popeye’s fried chicken at lunch. But skipped rice with the gumbo and had no bread or crackers with it for dinner to try to lower my carbs for the day instead of tossing the towel in completely. DH thought I was crazy skipping the rice for the gumbo but it felt good to make that tradeoff given my choices earlier in the day.
January Total Walking Miles = 3.5 / 100
Day 43: 01/07 - 230.0 - Journal, 80oz water, 3 glasses wine, 3 mile walk. DD & family are still displaced from their home due to the sewage line and moved back out to live with us this weekend to give her husband’s family a break. Big steak dinner last night last night with lots of veggies and wine.

Day 47: 01/11 - 229.9 @ 4am- Journal best I could since I went to a potluck brunch today after starting back up my ESL class. Water? AF, no exercise. Busy day today but too much food and not enough movement. Since DH is at a meeting in the evening I made a cup of peppermint tea and closed the kitchen so I didn't continue to snack.

Day 50: 01/14 - 229.4 @ 3:30am- Did NOT Journal, ??oz water, wine, walk 3.1 miles. Mainly worked on finances … ours and then my mom’s as well. In the evening DH & I watched to old favorite movies ...

Day 51: 01/15 - 230.0 - Did NOT Journal nor track water … this is becoming a bad habit. No exercise but I did cut back the dead plants in the yard before they start to flush out again then I went shopping with my sister. Unplanned wine in the evening.
Day 52: 01/16 - 230.0 - Did NOT Journal nor track water but I did drink more water, walked 1 mile, 2 glasses wine.
Day 53: 01/17 - 232.4 - WHOA! Did NOT Journal nor track water but did drink more water. AF. I’m starting to sound like a broken record. Strength Training class for 1 hour then 2-3 hours of yard work. Ended up soaking in the bath and then using a heating pad on my back. But felt lovely in the evening and went out to meet my book club for dinner. Starting my food journal TODAY!
Day 54: 01/18 - 231.8 - Still not tracking water and food. AF, no exercise. Teaching ESL, read, shopped, etc. Productive day except for getting myself back on plan.
Day 55: 01/19 - 231.2 - No journal. AF last night skipping margaritas at book club, walk 1.3 miles.
Day 56: 01/20 - 230.1 - No journal, wine, water. Granddaughter duty for the entire day then a nap before dining out with friends.
Day 57: 01/21 - 230.9 - No journal, drinks (bourbon & Diet Coke), water, Strength Training 1 hour … hmmmm my food was not that bad so I’m wondering if I had hidden calories or if it was left over from the pasta the night before.
8th Week Goal Weight - 228.x

Day 59: 01/23 - 231.2 - Walked 1.3 miles. AF. Spent the day digging in boxes and looking for easter pics of my kids for seasonal frame area I’ve created this year. I found 5 pics between the years 1992-1998! My adult children were so little. My kids keep asking who their kids take after. This has been a fun project. It also helps for me to see how thin I was after 3 kids ... and to think I thought I was fat back then!
Day 60: 01/24 - 233 - Too much king cake!!!
Day 61: 01/25 - 232.6
Day 62: 01/26 - DNW

Day 65: 01/29 - 233.0 @ 3:30am - Worked at the Houston Food Bank for 4 hours packing 900 senior boxes. They were doing 900 more that afternoon. Talk about a work out! Feels good to do something for others though. Largest food bank in the US … huge warehouse.
Day 66: 01/30 - 232.2 - Rainy day. Decorated the outside of my home for Mardi Gras, Swedish Death Cleaning the kitchen … getting rid of so much stuff I never use or really need to replace. But I did bake a carrot cake which is half gone between DH, my sister and I.
Day 67: 01/31 - 234.2 - Photography class nature walk and Strength Training class cannot offset 3 pieces of carrot cake (breakfast, lunch, dinner) + pizza for dinner. Granddaughter is still throwing up since last Tuesday even on anti-nausea meds. She saw the doc again on Monday. I’m heading over there to give my daughter some relief so she can go to work and begin her new commercial design project that has been delayed due to her caring for the little one.
Day 68: 02/01 - 234.4 - Little activity outside of taking care of my granddaughter while she is sick.
Day 69: 02/02 - 233.3 - Another day of little activity due to weather and caring for my granddaughter. That said I was up and down on the floor a lot and managed a few planks while playing with her.

Day 75: 02/08 - 229.9 - Busy day yesterday! Granddaughter dropped by with her parents to drop off dogs before their road trip. Taught an ever expanding ESL class. I now have 13-14 students for level 2. Then cooked a nice dinner for lunch for DH since I was going out in the evening. Mix Media art class in the afternoon. Then the wonderful cooking class with my daughter in the evening returning home around 10pm. We had a table of 4 and the pictures I posted were my share of our efforts … felt stuffed. Brought home 1/2 the steak and DH enjoyed a 2nd late dinner.
Day 76: 02/09 - 229.8 - Cleaned out 5 more cabinets in my house. Decided all the old bar glasses in one cabinet that came from here there and yonder could go and kept only a few styles that I like. So this was a large paper sack of breakables that no one ever used is now gone.
Day 77: 02/10 - 230.2 - Walked 1 mile. Expensive 30K mile car maintenance done so I’m ready for a roadtrip with my sister next weekend. Breakfast out with DH which was fun … it has been a while since we did that. Taught ESL. Yard work. Nice beautiful day here.

Didn't think I was going to make my goal as this week's been a bit unsettled with guests over the weekend and air travel mid week but thankfully things worked out. I expect my losses to slow down now as I get into the groove and past the initial water weight whoosh.

This week has gone by so fast! I've been feeling so fatigued lately, I don't know what's up but am thinking of making a doc appointment if it continues because I'm fed up with feeling slow and cold and down all the time. As predicted, I'm seeing my losses slow down now. I was trying to decide whether to adjust my weight loss goal for this challenge as I don't think 2lbs a week is realistic and I don't want to be demoralised by it, but I have decided to leave it as it is and see where I end up. If i lose 10lb rather than 15, that's still amazing!
Have a lovely weekend everyone

It's going slowly, but at least it's going! I think that at this point I really can't chance even one treat meal or slack day per week if I want to have any hope of losing 0.5 lbs a week. Not great for socialising!
My energy levels are feeling a lot better. Probably a combination of sunny days, getting past my totm, going to the gym, cutting alcohol out entirely, partially switching back to caffeinated coffee, taking multi vitamins (I have got some vit D which I started taking yesterday along with vit B and magnesium plus a multi vit), drinking more water, and generally feeling more positive. Yay!
I'm miles away from my weekly goals that I calculated based on a 2lb per week loss, hey ho. So it's going to take me 4 times as long to get to a healthy weight? Yikes. I should get there (143lbs) by my 43rd birthday at the end of August, so long as I stick at it...

Finally seeing some decent progress, especially in the last few days. I have been drinking much more water and have begun strength training alongside cardio in the hope of stimulating my metabolism. I had my TSH levels checked, 4.09, so just within the normal range but something to keep an eye on. Feeling hopeful for the week ahead, the longer days are lifting my spirits! Have a good weekend, everyone

It's been a positive week, I've been getting into a groove with my exercise habits, thanks in part to my new smart watch with lots of fun features providing motivation.
I've also been tweaking my calories and macros so that I'm getting more fuel and protein as I'm concerned that I've been losing lots of muscle through having too low calories and too many carbs. Drinking tons of water too, so I'm feeling a lot more alert and healthy.
A week and a bit left to go of this challenge, no chance of making my goal, which is a lesson for me in setting unrealistic targets! I'll be happy to finish the 100 having lost over 10lbs, but a little more would be nice too 😁

Mini challenge by Donna, December 10-April 9th
December 10th weight: 143.2 (but I was 141.8 the following day so I might use that)
1st Week Goal Weight - 139.9
1st Week Actual Weight - 141.2 Started the week at 142.2
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4738 - average over 7 days 834
2nd Week Goal Weight - 141.0
2nd Week Actual Weight - 142.2 - Started the week at 143.0
Excess calories burned (in the green): Forgot to add this earlier - 4948 = 706.85 average over 7 days.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 139.4 - (Ambitious)
3rd Week Actual Weight: 144.2 - Somehow put on 3 pounds while down sick for 1 day! Started the week at 142.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 6063 = 866.14 average over 7 days - Really big calorie burn this past week except for the day that I was sick
4th Week Goal Weight: 139.6 - (Ambitious)
4th Week Actual Weight: 143.8 - Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3563 = 509 average over 7 days
5th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Not likely with holiday eating, but going to plunk in this number until I hit it. Turned out that Turkey dinners carefully portioned actually lost me weight this week.
5th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 - Started the week at 143.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 4496 = 642 average over 7 days.
6th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
6th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 145.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 986 - Even 1150 eating days didn't give me much excess because of low exercise during my sore ankle and subsequent steroid injection into it.
7th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
7th Week Actual Weight: 143.6 Started the week at 144.2. I had Ribs, and may have them one more time during this 100
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2762, 394.7 average over 7 days, I know that this needs to be higher to lose weight. Ankle is getting there, so hopefully soon I can get back to it.

8th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 143.8
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2983 = 426.14 - a little closer to my goal of 500 per day averaged out over the week.
9th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
9th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3791, which works out to an average of 541.57 over 7 days. First time that I have hit my goal of 500+ per week in quite a while, and it shows on the scale!
10th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
10th Week Actual Weight: 143.2 Started the week at 143.2
Excess calories burned (In the green): 1921 - 320.16 average over 6 days - not enough
11th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
11th Week Actual Weight: 143.4 - Started the week at 144.8, not good, topped out at 146.0!
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3783 = 540 average over 7 days
12th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
12th Week Actual Weight: 143.0 - Started the week at 143.6, topped out at 146.2 - my highest weight in 2 years
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3459 = 494.14 average over 7 days, close to my 500 goal
13th Week Goal Weight: Start weight, since there is only 10 days left, 142.2 or less
13th Week Actual Weight: 141.2 - Started the week at 143.2 - tested positive for Covid on Thursday morning.
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3771 = 538.71 average over 7 days. This was top loaded since I haven't had much activity since contracting Covid
14th Week Goal Weight: 139.2
14th Week Actual Weight: 141.0 Started the week at 140.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): I will figure this out after today's numbers. My calories in have been good, but I haven't had a whole lot of energy for the calories out portion with Covid.
Day 98 - March 04 - 141.6 - I thought it would be a lot more, I got pizza delivery from Dominos last night because there was a 50% of pizza coupon in my mailbox. Power of suggestion? I tried the gluten free crust, and a normal crust, each with different toppings (both small 10"). Both delicious. I tried not to eat too much of them, I am going to wrap the remaining slices individually and put them in the freezer.
Day 99 - March 05 - 143.2 - Huh?? - What are the chances that I will be 1 pound less tomorrow to at least be at my start weight for 100 long days ago? No idea why the big gain today. I don't like it.
Day 100 - March 06
Start weight of the 100: 142.2

101 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Nov 26, 2022 Starting Date
My Name is Donna, Age 62. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
My mini-challenge is to lose 10 pounds by Easter 2023. I started my efforts on Dec. 10th weighing 198.4. My wish is to weigh 188.4 by Easter April 9th, 2023. That gives me about 4 months to lose 10 pounds. Sounds easy but, trust me, it won’t be. Especially when outside exercise is so limited for me this slippery time of year!
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
Goal This Round: 181.2
Starting Weight (from End of Last Challenge): : 196.2
Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.Day 01-11/26-196.6-(Trend weight 198.1) My day one starts immediately on the day following the final day of the last challenge. It will end on March 6th with everyone else but that will make it 101 days for me.

I am pre-logging, sipping on my water and planning some indoor exercise today. I babysat DGS until about 11:30 pm last night. I managed to keep the diet good but no exercise as I don’t have 20 straight minutes for ANYTHING when he is here. My daughter doesn’t work today so the day BELONGS to ME! No excuses! Only 2 more weigh-in days until the end of this round. I plan on seeing a drop both days. I want to get back closer to the 180’s again. Oh, how I would love to scratch off another decade on the top of this post! I need the turquoise GONE and I need to be working down the green!
Day 100-03/05-194.0-(trend weight 193.2) My doctors would not be impressed. I can do better. Just one more day to show a loss for the round.

Mini challenge by Donna, December 10-April 9th
December 10th weight: 143.2 (but I was 141.8 the following day so I might use that)
1st Week Goal Weight - 139.9
1st Week Actual Weight - 141.2 Started the week at 142.2
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4738 - average over 7 days 834

Excess calories burned (in the green): Forgot to add this earlier - 4948 = 706.85 average over 7 days.
3rd Week Goal Weight: 139.4 - (Ambitious)
3rd Week Actual Weight: 144.2 - Somehow put on 3 pounds while down sick for 1 day! Started the week at 142.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 6063 = 866.14 average over 7 days - Really big calorie burn this past week except for the day that I was sick
4th Week Goal Weight: 139.6 - (Ambitious)
4th Week Actual Weight: 143.8 - Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3563 = 509 average over 7 days

Excess calories burned (In the green): 4496 = 642 average over 7 days.

6th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 145.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): 986 - Even 1150 eating days didn't give me much excess because of low exercise during my sore ankle and subsequent steroid injection into it.
7th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it

8th Week Actual Weight: 142.8 Started the week at 143.8
Excess calories burned (In the green): 2983 = 426.14 - a little closer to my goal of 500 per day averaged out over the week.
9th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
9th Week Actual Weight: 142.6 Started the week at 143.6
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3791, which works out to an average of 541.57 over 7 days. First time that I have hit my goal of 500+ per week in quite a while, and it shows on the scale!
10th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
10th Week Actual Weight: 143.2 Started the week at 143.2
Excess calories burned (In the green): 1921 - 320.16 average over 6 days - not enough
11th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
11th Week Actual Weight: 143.4 - Started the week at 144.8, not good, topped out at 146.0!
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3783 = 540 average over 7 days
12th Week Goal Weight: 139.2 - Putting this number in until I hit it
12th Week Actual Weight: 143.0 - Started the week at 143.6, topped out at 146.2 - my highest weight in 2 years
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3459 = 494.14 average over 7 days, close to my 500 goal
13th Week Goal Weight: Start weight, since there is only 10 days left, 142.2 or less
13th Week Actual Weight: 141.2 - Started the week at 143.2 - tested positive for Covid on Thursday morning.
Excess calories burned (In the green): 3771 = 538.71 average over 7 days. This was top loaded since I haven't had much activity since contracting Covid
14th Week Goal Weight: 139.2
14th Week Actual Weight: 141.0 Started the week at 140.4
Excess calories burned (In the green): I will figure this out after today's numbers. My calories in have been good, but I haven't had a whole lot of energy for the calories out portion with Covid.

Didn't think I was going to make my goal as this week's been a bit unsettled with guests over the weekend and air travel mid week but thankfully things worked out. I expect my losses to slow down now as I get into the groove and past the initial water weight whoosh.

This week has gone by so fast! I've been feeling so fatigued lately, I don't know what's up but am thinking of making a doc appointment if it continues because I'm fed up with feeling slow and cold and down all the time. As predicted, I'm seeing my losses slow down now. I was trying to decide whether to adjust my weight loss goal for this challenge as I don't think 2lbs a week is realistic and I don't want to be demoralised by it, but I have decided to leave it as it is and see where I end up. If i lose 10lb rather than 15, that's still amazing!
Have a lovely weekend everyone

It's going slowly, but at least it's going! I think that at this point I really can't chance even one treat meal or slack day per week if I want to have any hope of losing 0.5 lbs a week. Not great for socialising!
My energy levels are feeling a lot better. Probably a combination of sunny days, getting past my totm, going to the gym, cutting alcohol out entirely, partially switching back to caffeinated coffee, taking multi vitamins (I have got some vit D which I started taking yesterday along with vit B and magnesium plus a multi vit), drinking more water, and generally feeling more positive. Yay!
I'm miles away from my weekly goals that I calculated based on a 2lb per week loss, hey ho. So it's going to take me 4 times as long to get to a healthy weight? Yikes. I should get there (143lbs) by my 43rd birthday at the end of August, so long as I stick at it...

Finally seeing some decent progress, especially in the last few days. I have been drinking much more water and have begun strength training alongside cardio in the hope of stimulating my metabolism. I had my TSH levels checked, 4.09, so just within the normal range but something to keep an eye on. Feeling hopeful for the week ahead, the longer days are lifting my spirits! Have a good weekend, everyone

It's been a positive week, I've been getting into a groove with my exercise habits, thanks in part to my new smart watch with lots of fun features providing motivation.
I've also been tweaking my calories and macros so that I'm getting more fuel and protein as I'm concerned that I've been losing lots of muscle through having too low calories and too many carbs. Drinking tons of water too, so I'm feeling a lot more alert and healthy.
A week and a bit left to go of this challenge, no chance of making my goal, which is a lesson for me in setting unrealistic targets! I'll be happy to finish the 100 having lost over 10lbs, but a little more would be nice too 😁

Well, overall I'm happy with how I got on with this challenge. I joined half way through so this is the result from 51 days. I had times when my weight wasn't going anywhere, despite giving it 100% effort and at times I got disheartened. The last couple weeks things have been working better and the pounds have been coming off easier. More water, upped my calories a bit, started strength training and I feel much more energetic and healthy. The last 2 days things have gone a bit wonky, I guess just aftermath from the weekend, so hopefully I can get into the 140s soon. See everyone in #15 xx💚

101 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Nov 26, 2022 Starting Date
My Name is Donna, Age 62. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
My mini-challenge is to lose 10 pounds by Easter 2023. I started my efforts on Dec. 10th weighing 198.4. My wish is to weigh 188.4 by Easter April 9th, 2023. That gives me about 4 months to lose 10 pounds. Sounds easy but, trust me, it won’t be. Especially when outside exercise is so limited for me this slippery time of year!
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

Day 101-03/06…..(Final Weigh- In)-191.2-(trend weight 193.0) I had to cancel the travel to cardiac rehab today due to the abundant snow coming down. I do much better on the diet without the travel so today should be another good day. I have been getting a little lax on exercise. I’ve been finding things to do that aren’t as “hard” as my usual routines. Time to get rid of the Lazies and get back to the Grind. Time to get my toushie moving! This has been a fair round for me. I am grateful for the progress and the loss of 5 pounds in 101 days. However, Our challenge is for over 3 months and many more than that in just one month, so it reminds me that I need to be more consistent. Gosh, this is hard to do! Anyway, I’ll see you all tomorrow in Round #15. Thanks to dawnbgethealthy for posting and hosting this wonderful challenge.
