Hey Everyone! We are back at it again with round 15!

Congratulations to those of you who stuck it out till the end in round 14! It is a long, but amazing journey and our daily habits can help us achieve our long term goals.

This challenge is 100 days of weighing in daily. This is where we track our fluctuations on a day to day basis to see which foods, activities, & movement make the scale move in the right direction.

Day 1 will be on Tuesday, March 7th & Day 100 will be on Wednesday, June 14th.

Feel free to start whenever you want. Jump in and join even if you didn’t start on Day 1.

The rules are simple:
1. Set yourself a goal of what you want to weigh on Day 100 and work towards getting there for the next 100 days.
2. Weigh yourself daily, unless you can’t (you’re away from home or not near a scale).
3. Don’t get discouraged by fluctuations. Use this as a time to understand your body.
4. Log your weight on here every single day. Feel free to share how you feel about your weigh in as well.
5. Encourage others, including yourself.

Onwards & upwards to healthy living !

If you’re going to join, feel free to copy and paste my next post down below as an entry. Let’s do this!💪

Thank you to curvvycaloriess for originally starting the challenge and all of those who have continued it.

    We all have our different reasons to shed some pounds: Improved
    health, better fitting clothes, upcoming events, self-esteem, mobility, swimsuit season etc.

    Anyone can join and set their own goals and expectations. This is an open challenge for everybody and anybody to join and see what we can lose together as a group. It's a continuation of the one that just ended on March 06.23. It's a great way to see how daily fluctuations happen all of the time, but you can continue to lose weight and see results in the end. This will end on Wednesday June 14.23 so hopefully we can get rid of some of the extra weight before then. Good luck everyone!

    Feel free to use your own weekly schedule.
    This guideline ends each week on a Friday....

    100 Days of Accountability 3/7 -6/14
    I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

    Female, Age 62, 5’3”
    Challenge Starting Weight: ? (3/7/2023)
    Challenge Goal: <219

    History & Goals
    Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
    Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
    2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022)
    2023 SW: 232 BMI 41.1 (1/1/2023)

    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
    🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
    * Get out of the 230s!!!!!!
    * Making below 225 stick
    * Into the teens again: <220
    * Less than I started year 2022: <209
    * Prior to Oct 2021 roadtrip damage: <206
    * Onederland: 199
    * Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
    * 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195

    My goal for 2023 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020; derailed in 2022; recommit 1/3/2023)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)

    My challenge this round will be a cruise scheduled in June so I won't be around at the end of the challenge and will likely start the following round with a crazy gain. So THIS 100 days I need to really get back into the weight loss grove so that I don't let my weight continue to creep up higher.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

    Hi everyone.
    I am Dawn. 5'2", 62 years old.
    My BMI and stuff like that shows my optimum healthy weight should be between 110 and 120.

    I have steadily gained in all but one of the last bunch of 100s (gained 2.2 pounds this past one)
    I need to turn that around.
    I am not cutting out any food groups, or anything at all really because I want weight loss to be sustainable for life. I have learned to have less of certain things, and have moved some other stuff to once per week or once per 3 months (Ribs, very fattening). If I thought that I couldn't have them at all I believe that it would be worse. For the most part I eat very healthy foods.
    I have had quite a bit of success since I started MFP October 28.18, but this past year has been an almost 15 pound gain.
    I am into my biggest pair of pants and have no desire to buy bigger pants. I have lots of cute clothes that I was wearing at 130, and at that point I was driving hard to get into the 120s and beyond.

    I love this long length of 100 days, and seeing how each week is going,

    As always, I am open to suggestions. I think most of us have tried everything at this junction.
    Calories in vs. Calories out really should work though.

    Best of luck to everyone.

    Hi all, I'm Rowan, I live in Northamptonshire, UK.
    I have been off and on MFP since 2013, and have been 128lbs at my lowest, 180.8 at my highest.
    In the summer of 2021, I was at my highest weight and feeling utterly sick, tired and depressed. I restarted tracking my calories, with no exercise other than walking 5 miles a day most days, and managed to lose 43lbs in about 5 months. But then I took a break in March last year and didn't come back until January this year, by which time I'd regained 26lbs. So I got back in the game and am now down about 13lbs since then.
    I am taking a different approach this time, I have raised my calories slightly and am focusing on getting lots of protein and staying hydrated. I have been strength training for about the last month, which I am really enjoying, but it does leave me feeling quite tired at times, so it can be difficult to get my steps in every day.
    I have a health tracker watch which tells me that I have a BMR of 1254 calories a day and on days that I work out I burn around 1800-2000 calories in 24hrs, 1500 calories on days that i don't. I aim to eat around 1200 calories a day with 40% protein. I have a BMI of 26.5 and I have a high body fat percentage of 40.4%, so I really need to lower my body fat to at least 30% and raise my muscle mass. Hopefully this will help increase my metabolism, which seems to crawl along at a snail's pace. Gaining any muscle while eating at a deficit is really difficult, but at least I can do my best to retain the muscle that I have.
    I should be losing about 1.5lbs a week, however things aren't always so straightforward, so I have set a target for 1lb a week for the first 50 days of this challenge, then 0.5lb a week for the second 50 days. If I manage to get to within the healthy BMI range by the end of this, I will be very happy. So that's 143lbs for me, about 9lbs to lose, but I'm hoping for 141lbs.

    Sorry for the essay! Good luck to everyone, we can do this!

    F42 5'4

    Day 1 – Tues March 07 - 143.4 - Yesterday was my first day back to my restaurant job, so I got lots of steps in as well as a few Fitness Marshall dances. MFP is still telling me that I will be 119.0 in 5 weeks if every day was like this. I gain very fast and lose very slowly.
    Day 2 – Wed March 08
    Day 3 – Thurs March 09
    Day 4 – Fri March 10

    1st week goal weight: 142.2 - Start weight from the last 100 and go from there.
    1st week actual weight: Started the (short) week at 143.4
    Excess calories burned (in the green):

    Start weight of the 100: 143.4, up 1.2 from the start weight of the previous 100

    Thanks @dawnbgethealty and @deepwoodslady for taking the reins and renewing the 100-Days of Weighing Challenge. I enjoy and feel inspired following everyone’s different journey. This group has helped me stay motivated. I have fallen off the wagon and away from the Challenge many times but I always feel compelled to return.

    Incorporating intermittent fasting into my regimen is my greatest take away from the last challenge. It has REALLY helped get my eating under control!

    My goals for this challenge—
    Normal day-to-day: stick to an IF schedule of 16:8, eat whole foods as much as possible, stay low-carb, avoid refined sugar, and exercise. No calorie counting or measuring food. I also need to get away from the all-or-nothing mindset, by being able to indulge here and there with no regrets and then getting right back to it the next day.

    I’m a slow loser which can be discouraging. My focus needs to be more on health & sustainability.

    So good luck everyone! Here we go!

    Aiming for a loss of 50 grams a day
    Day 1 87.3 kg I had what I call a 'sugar fest', I always do that at the start of losing weight, plus some fruit and crackers, I drank a lot of water in an attempt to battle the heat here, so I'm not surprised that my weight has increased...
    Day 2 87.6 on track? Probably

    @bteri107 Well it's Dawn that is actually handling the posting of the challenge. But I am thrilled that you never give up and you always return. I love your goals for challenge #15. I would be scared to death to not count the calories (and carbs) personally, but I agree that the all-or-nothing mindset is a recipe for failure, not success. I look forward to seeing if your approach helps with that. I admire that you are willing to try what you must to help you reach your goals. I also can have an all-or-nothing mindset and I have no ideas of my own to fix it. I have a hard time letting go and getting over stuff. Especially my own stuff as I am harder on myself than anyone has ever actually be on me. My own worst enemy, as they say. Anyway, glad to see you back with a plan to keep working on those goals while being kinder to yourself.
