Talking about weigh in…
I weigh myself every morning
with my Aria Air scale that connects automatically to my Fitbit app.
I can’t cheat!! It tracks on its own 😆
On the scale
1st thing every morning now,
fasting, in my underwear 🤭4 -
Thank you for posting this challenge.
I’ve been around the sun 76 times, live in B.C., Canada. I have some arthritic issues but push to remain physically active. I’ve struggled with slow to nil wt loss for many years; much easier to gain than to lose. Evening / nighttime snacking is my nemesis. Use WW points to track plus working thru Noom’s new book to break bad habits and build new ones. Love kayaking (follow lakeshores) and biking.

Day 45 – Saturday July 29: 168 56 days left in this challenge and I weigh more than when it started. Challenging myself keeping food jrnl for 49 of the next 56 days. Paddled yesterday; went to a remote lake in case I struggled to exit the kayak. Was able to lift my butt up ok; feel like this is a huge victory b/c it was my inability to exit kayak somewhat gracefully that was the final straw. Busy day ahead, out of town shopping, perhaps another kayak venture then get ready for working the next 3 days. Always a struggle falling asleep before midnight and hate starting my shifts feeling tired.
Day 46 – Sunday July 30 171 ☹
Day 47 – Monday July 31 171 ☹ time to quit goofing off and get back to basics, starting with 12 water and food journal

Ultimate goal 70 kg
Day 1 Thursday June 15 Already the 15th on my side of the world. 79 kg. I am at 25 BMI but my ethnicity calls for a lower BMI to get in a healthy weight range. Went for a 3 hour walk. went 1 cal over my net limit.
Day 2 Friday June 16 79 kg. No loss but maintaining is better than gaining. Didn't do much today as I'm coming down with a cold.
1st week goal weight: 78.8
1st week actual weight:79 kg
Day 3 Saturday June 17 78.8 kg
Day 4 Sunday June 18 78.4 kg. still coughing quite badly and food doesn't taste great, so keeping the calories down.
Day 5 Monday June 19 78 kg. 1 kilo in 5 days? Holy cow! I feel I'm eating enough. remind self that weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint. Prob this rate won't continue
Day 6 Tuesday June 20 78 kg
Day 7 Wednesday June 21 78.1 kg. Every day it isn't raining I go for at least a 60 min walk. While walking I look out for dropped coins. So far I have found 90 cents (US 54 cents) I plan to save it all and buy myself a non food treat at the end of the Challenge.
Day 8 Thursday June 22 78 kg. Keeping the salt down - but it's fat I want to lose, not water.
Day 9 Friday June 23 77.8 kg. Found $2 (US1.27) while walking. This week has def gone well.
2nd week goal weight: 78.3 kg
2nd week actual weight: 77.9 kg. Wow. Just wow. Don't know if this rate will continue, but I'll take the loss so far.
Day 10 Saturday June 24 77.8 kg
Day 11 Sunday June 25 78kg. Going in the wrong direction! So what did I do? Spent the day eating buttered toast and honey.
Day 12 Monday June 26 77.8 kg. Feeling lazy today so bought some potato salad for lunch. The spuds were undercooked and the mayo so sweet my teeth almost fell out. Maybe my tastebuds are becoming accustomed to less sugar? I am trying to avoid sauces and dressings and just using herbs and spices in cooking.
Day 13 Tuesday June 27 77.9 kg. Eating too much bread.
Day 14 Wednesday June 28 77.5 kg. Raining today so didn't walk. Drinking a load of black coffee which acts as an appetite suppressant for me.
Day 15 Thursday June 29 77.6 kg. Tried on a size 16D bra, was a little loose. Tried on an old 14C, was a bit too tight. How uncomfortable do I want to be until I lose a little more weight?
Day 16 Friday June 30 77.4 kg
3rd week goal weight: 77.2
3rd week actual weight: 77.4 Didn't quite reach target but I'll take the loss anyway.
Day 17 – Saturday July 01 77 kg. Waist 33.5 ins. Hips 43.5 ins.
Day 18 – Sunday July 02 76.8 kg. BMI 24.5. 2 more kilos to lose and I will be in the healthy range for my ethnicity. Hint - if you calculate BMI, use a calculator that takes into account age, gender and ethnicity, not just weight and height.
Day 19 – Monday July 03 76.7 kg
Day 20 – Tuesday July 04 76.5 kg - have lost a total of 9 kg (19.8 lbs) since starting MFP
Day 21 – Wednesday July 05 76.7 kg
Day 22 – Thursday July 06 76.8 kg. I am 65 today! Celebrated retirement by going to an Indian restaurant. Mmmm .... buttered naan bread ....
Day 23 – Friday July 07 76.4 kg. Today is Day 100 of tracking my food and exercise on MFP. I have lost 9.1 kg altogether (20 lbs). Jeans getting rather loose.
4th week goal weight: 76.5 kg
4th week actual weight: 76.4 kg. Made it!
Day 24 – Saturday July 08 76 kg! woot woot!
Day 25 – Sunday July 09 76 kg
Day 26 – Monday July 10 76.8 kg. Neighbor gave me a pot of homemade apricot jam. Note to self - pass on such future goodies to food pantry immediately instead of devouring jam sandwiches non stop ....
Day 27 – Tuesday July 11 76.4 kg
Day 28 – Wednesday July 12 76.2 kg
Day 29 – Thursday July 13 76 kg. Tonight we celebrated Matariki, the Rising of the Seven Sisters (the Pleiades). I was very restrained at the feast, only a small portion of roast pork and sweet potato, no potato bread, and just one scoop of ice cream. Part of the invite required a contribution to the food pantry, so I found a box of cereal, a jar of honey, some other sweet stuff and a can of coconut milk to donate - I hope someone needs to put on weight!
Day 30 – Friday July 14 75.5 kg! 3.5 kg lost in 30 days! Wow!
5th week goal weight: 75.5 kg
5th week actual weight: 75.5 kg. Go me!
Day 31 – Saturday July 15 75.9 kg
Day 32 – Sunday July 16 76.2 kg
Day 33 – Monday July 17 76 kg
Day 34 – Tuesday July 18 75.3 kg
Day 35 – Wednesday July 19 75.1 kg
Day 36 – Thursday July 20 74.9 kg. Waist 33 ins. Hips 42 ins. Yes! Down in the Healthy BMI range! Aim to get down to 22 BMI.
Day 37 – Friday July 21 74.8 kg Thinking of doing some weight training in order to replace fat with muscle and develop some upper body strength.
6th week goal weight: 75 kg
6th week actual weight: 74.8 kg
Day 38 – Saturday July 22 75.1 kg
Day 39 – Sunday July 23 74.9 kg
Day 40 – Monday July 24 75.1 kg
Day 41 – Tuesday July 25 74.9 kg. This feels like a plateau tho I'm still regularly below my net allowed calories.
Day 42 – Wednesday July 26 74.8 kg.
Day 43 – Thursday July 27 75 kg. Think I may be missing recording some calories somewhere. Need to be more vigilant.
Day 44 – Friday July 28 74.3 kg. Before MFP I weighed 100 kg (220 lbs) but managed to lose a fair bit of it even without tracking. Now I've lost over 25 kg (55 lbs) I tried on a cardigan I knitted for myself back then - and now it's enormous! I feel like the Saggy, Baggy Elephant wearing it. Off to the thrift store with it! I'll knit myself a new one after I've kept the weight off for a while.
7th week goal weight: Setting weekly goals doesn't do much for me, I find - just keeping my eye on the overall goal and celebrating various milestones as they occur.
7th week actual weight:
Day 45 – Saturday July 29 74.5 kg
Day 46 – Sunday July 30 75.1 kg. I made a start on decluttering today, after watching youtube videos. Two shopping bags of size 18 clothes donated - I swear on Peter Rabbit's lettuce I will never let myself get that big again. Size 14 now - would like to get back to 12.
Day 47 – Monday July 31 74.8 kg
Day 48 – Tuesday August 01 74.5 kg. Sometimes I weigh myself with a towel on. Sometimes I don't.
Day 49 – Wednesday August 02 74.2 kg.

My weight is down slightly and my trend is up slightly. Well this week didn’t show the scale going much lower and I know why. I’m not journaling and I’m hiding from myself not admitting to the snacking. Time to get that habit back under control. BABY STEPS
Day 45: 7/29 - 228.9 / 229.2 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights
Day 46: 7/30 - 228.7 / 229.0 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights

Day 48 : 8/01 - 228.7 228.9 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights
Day 49: 8/02 - 231 @ 3am - Not sure if this is a slip up or just too early and lack of sleep reflected on the scale. Plan to start biking 30 min per day in August and totally forgot yesterday

Thoughts:
1. I am still down 17.3 pounds from my highest ending weight during these challenges (#5)
2. I am up 8.8 pounds from my lowest ending weight (#9)
3. I am still down 5.8 pounds from the first challenge (#1)
4. I am still ahead of the game and these challenges are working for me. It is up & down and slower than I would like but it’s generally working. I’ve got to try harder and put in the work. When I do, clearly the results are much better.

Goal This Round: 182.0 (Sounds like a Dream but it’s 4 pounds per month)
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 194.0
Challenge Ending Weight: xxxxx
Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 5 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.

Day 48-08/01-193.6-(Trend weight 195.2) I’ve changed my goals to 4 pounds per month instead of 5. That is one even pound per week with the half week being allowed for normal fluctuations or special occasions or travel. Seems easier and more realistic. Tomorrow I travel to the hospital for a CT scan of my lungs. They are still watching me for the nodule they found there a few years ago. My oncology appt at the University Hospital is closer to the end of the month and they want the information ahead of time. They keep checking it for behaviors of cancer, growth and signs to the breast cancer I had metastasizing. Hopefully it will all go well. Hey folks, let’s make August count!
Day 49-08/02-194.6-(Trend weight 195.2) I was absolutely FLOORED when I stepped on the scale all 5 times during this earlier than usual weigh-in before travel. Up a FULL pound? I was under 1000 calories for the day yesterday, no exercise because of no time, a good elimination for TMI. Why oh Why? I can only figure that it was no sleep and up early today for the travel to CT scan? I dunno. We’ll see what happens in the next couple of days after travel and the dust settles.

@Lilylady3k Because I (usually) take my shower at night, I weigh in the morning in my nightgown. The weights on the fabric can vary but I don't sweat that as I usually fold it and wear it for a couple of nights. Of course I go after potty, before coffee and before any water or meds.Lilylady3k wrote: »@tinathescreamer - weighing with our without a towel would make a big difference especially if damp or not.
I weigh in my PJs which might vary a little but mostly they are about all the same.
At the doctor's office I weigh with clothes and shoes which sometimes means jeans which I know make a big difference so I usually step on the scale when leaving the house for the doctor's office to see how much the my scale varies from theirs.
What about the rest of you? [/b]

Ultimate goal 70 kg
Day 1 Thursday June 15 Already the 15th on my side of the world. 79 kg. I am at 25 BMI but my ethnicity calls for a lower BMI to get in a healthy weight range. Went for a 3 hour walk. went 1 cal over my net limit.
Day 2 Friday June 16 79 kg. No loss but maintaining is better than gaining. Didn't do much today as I'm coming down with a cold.
1st week goal weight: 78.8
1st week actual weight:79 kg
Day 3 Saturday June 17 78.8 kg
Day 4 Sunday June 18 78.4 kg. still coughing quite badly and food doesn't taste great, so keeping the calories down.
Day 5 Monday June 19 78 kg. 1 kilo in 5 days? Holy cow! I feel I'm eating enough. remind self that weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint. Prob this rate won't continue
Day 6 Tuesday June 20 78 kg
Day 7 Wednesday June 21 78.1 kg. Every day it isn't raining I go for at least a 60 min walk. While walking I look out for dropped coins. So far I have found 90 cents (US 54 cents) I plan to save it all and buy myself a non food treat at the end of the Challenge.
Day 8 Thursday June 22 78 kg. Keeping the salt down - but it's fat I want to lose, not water.
Day 9 Friday June 23 77.8 kg. Found $2 (US1.27) while walking. This week has def gone well.
2nd week goal weight: 78.3 kg
2nd week actual weight: 77.9 kg. Wow. Just wow. Don't know if this rate will continue, but I'll take the loss so far.
Day 10 Saturday June 24 77.8 kg
Day 11 Sunday June 25 78kg. Going in the wrong direction! So what did I do? Spent the day eating buttered toast and honey.
Day 12 Monday June 26 77.8 kg. Feeling lazy today so bought some potato salad for lunch. The spuds were undercooked and the mayo so sweet my teeth almost fell out. Maybe my tastebuds are becoming accustomed to less sugar? I am trying to avoid sauces and dressings and just using herbs and spices in cooking.
Day 13 Tuesday June 27 77.9 kg. Eating too much bread.
Day 14 Wednesday June 28 77.5 kg. Raining today so didn't walk. Drinking a load of black coffee which acts as an appetite suppressant for me.
Day 15 Thursday June 29 77.6 kg. Tried on a size 16D bra, was a little loose. Tried on an old 14C, was a bit too tight. How uncomfortable do I want to be until I lose a little more weight?

3rd week actual weight: 77.4 Didn't quite reach target but I'll take the loss anyway.

Day 25 – Sunday July 09 76 kg
Day 26 – Monday July 10 76.8 kg. Neighbor gave me a pot of homemade apricot jam. Note to self - pass on such future goodies to food pantry immediately instead of devouring jam sandwiches non stop ....
Day 27 – Tuesday July 11 76.4 kg
Day 28 – Wednesday July 12 76.2 kg
Day 29 – Thursday July 13 76 kg. Tonight we celebrated Matariki, the Rising of the Seven Sisters (the Pleiades). I was very restrained at the feast, only a small portion of roast pork and sweet potato, no potato bread, and just one scoop of ice cream. Part of the invite required a contribution to the food pantry, so I found a box of cereal, a jar of honey, some other sweet stuff and a can of coconut milk to donate - I hope someone needs to put on weight!

Day 43 – Thursday July 27 75 kg. Think I may be missing recording some calories somewhere. Need to be more vigilant.
Day 44 – Friday July 28 74.3 kg. Before MFP I weighed 100 kg (220 lbs) but managed to lose a fair bit of it even without tracking. Now I've lost over 25 kg (55 lbs) I tried on a cardigan I knitted for myself back then - and now it's enormous! I feel like the Saggy, Baggy Elephant wearing it. Off to the thrift store with it! I'll knit myself a new one after I've kept the weight off for a while.
7th week goal weight: Setting weekly goals doesn't do much for me, I find - just keeping my eye on the overall goal and celebrating various milestones as they occur.
7th week actual weight:
Day 45 – Saturday July 29 74.5 kg
Day 46 – Sunday July 30 75.1 kg. I made a start on decluttering today, after watching youtube videos. Two shopping bags of size 18 clothes donated - I swear on Peter Rabbit's lettuce I will never let myself get that big again. Size 14 now - would like to get back to 12.
Day 47 – Monday July 31 74.8 kg
Day 48 – Tuesday August 01 74.5 kg. Sometimes I weigh myself with a towel on. Sometimes I don't.

My weight is down slightly and my trend is up slightly. Well this week didn’t show the scale going much lower and I know why. I’m not journaling and I’m hiding from myself not admitting to the snacking. Time to get that habit back under control. BABY STEPS
Day 45: 7/29 - 228.9 / 229.2 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights
Day 46: 7/30 - 228.7 / 229.0 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights

Day 49: 8/02 - 230.7 - Biked 20 min, gardened. Not sure if this is a slip up or just too early and lack of sleep reflected on the scale. Plan to start biking 30 min per day in August and totally forgot yesterday
Day 50: 8/03 - 230.5 - Well guess the extra pounds are sticking. ARGH

Total Weight Loss for Challenge:
Day 1 Thursday June 15 -- 143.3
Day 2 Friday June 16 -- 142.1 – This is encouraging. Decrease is probably water retention from last week's heavy carb & sugar diet. Stayed in control with food intake yesterday. No exercise tho.
1st week goal weight: 142.3
1st week actual weight: 142.1
Day 3 Saturday June 17 142.4 -- Out for dinner and cocktails with friends last night. Stayed in control with minimum carbs, and sugar from 2 glasses of pinot grigio.
Day 4 Sunday June 18 142.5 – 3 days in the 142’s. Hope to be in the 141’s by tomorrow.
Day 5 Monday June 19 142.5
Day 6 Tuesday June 20 142.7 – Still hanging in the 142s. Leaving for a short trip on Thursday night. Won’t be weighing in from Fri – Sun. I just hope I can at least maintain my current weight. Next Mon / Tues will tell all.
Day 7 Wednesday June 21 143.1 – Unnecessary carb intake yesterday. Need to put in a workout this afternoon.
Day 8 Thursday June 22 141.4 – Almost to my goal for this week. Stayed on course yesterday with what I ate, and had a workout session on my Peloton bike, as well as some upper body toning. I leave tonight for a long weekend trip to Oahu so won't be able to log my weight for the next 3 days. I’ll try my best to keep the carbs and sugar at a minimum. And will try to get some laps in at the hotel’s pool. But mainly I want to spend time with my daughter who goes to school there and to shop for some clothes as Maui is very limited on clothing stores these days.
Day 9 Friday June 23 –
2nd week goal weight: 141.1
2nd week actual weight: DNW [travel]
3rd/ Current week:
Day 10 Saturday June 24 DNW – [travel]
Day 11 Sunday June 25 DNW – [travel]
Day 12 Monday June 26 142.8 – So I gained a little over a pound since I last weighed (last Thurs). Tomorrow’s weight should show the final weight gained from my weekend travels… usually shows up about 2 days later. Back on the wagon today.
Day 13 Tuesday June 27 142.4 – Stayed in control with food yesterday and got a workout in (15-min kettlebells, 15-min core, 10-min peloton climb).
Day 14 Wednesday June 28 142.8 – I deserve this bump up. Gave in to sugar cravings yesterday and did not exercise.
Day 15 Thursday June 29 142.1 – Moderate consumption of sugar and potato chips yesterday, but I got a 50-min Peloton workout in which maybe kept the insulin spike in balance. I have one more day to lose a pound to put me at my goal weight for this week.
Day 16 Friday June 30 142.4 – Shucks, didn’t reach my weekly goal. Oh well, just keep going. Got a workout in yesterday: 20-min kettlebell, 10-min abs, and 15 min. Peloton ride. Had some unhealthy snacks (Oreos & potato chips) in the afternoon and a late, heavy dinner last night.

Overall challenge result: .9 lb loss
Week 4:
Day 17 – Saturday July 01 142.4
Day 18 – Sunday July 02 DNW
Day 19 – Monday July 03 DNW – Still need to work on my all or nothing tendency. Went to a party yesterday and enjoyed the food and desserts. I should have been satisfied and stopped there. But no, once I got home, I continued with the junk food. Why can’t I just be satisfied with an intermittent splurge? Why do I have to continue until I go to bed? The trigger is real. I have to find a way to balance food.
Day 20 – Tuesday July 04 144.6 – This gain is the consequence from the weekend. And tonight we celebrate the 4th of July with friends visiting from the East Coast. Oh boy. Here we go again, and mid-week nonetheless. Only portion control will save me. Happy Independence Day everyone!
Day 21 – Wednesday July 5 143.5
Day 22 – Thursday July 06 DNW -- I overdid it this past week and just don’t want to be discouraged by the scale. I hope to have a more positive attitude about it tomorrow.
Day 23 – Friday July 07 144.8 – I deserve this. Ugh!

Day 38 – Saturday July 22: 143.6 I’m hoping to see a dip tomorrow as long as I stay on track today.
Day 39 – Sunday July 23: 143.3 Surprised at this small dip as I did have a high carb meal with wine last night. Tried not to overdo it on the portion size. Also, I fasted longer before my first meal of the day. Good balance. I’m back to the start weight of this challenge. Keep going.
Day 40 – Monday July 24: DNW
Day 41 – Tuesday July 25: 142.3 I need to work hard this week on eating well and exercise. We’re leaving on Friday to spend the weekend with my daughter to celebrate her 21st birthday. We will celebrate with food and drinks, no doubt!

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ June 15, 2023 thru September 22, 2023
My Name is Donna, Age 63. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
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
Previous Rounds Tally & Thoughts:
This shows the ending weights of each round:
Round #1 --- 199,8
Round #2 --- 186.8
Round #3 --- 195.6
Round #4 --- 211.0
Round #5 --- 211.3
Round #6 --- 205.4
Round #7 --- 207.6
Round #8 --- 195.2

Round #11---200.8
Round #12---200.4
Round #13---196.2
Round #14---191.2
Round #15---194.0
Thoughts:
1. I am still down 17.3 pounds from my highest ending weight during these challenges (#5)
2. I am up 8.8 pounds from my lowest ending weight (#9)
3. I am still down 5.8 pounds from the first challenge (#1)
4. I am still ahead of the game and these challenges are working for me. It is up & down and slower than I would like but it’s generally working. I’ve got to try harder and put in the work. When I do, clearly the results are much better.
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou
Goal This Round: 182.0 (Sounds like a Dream but it’s 4 pounds per month)
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 194.0
Challenge Ending Weight: xxxxx
Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 5 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180’s. I don’t care if it’s on the brim. I’ve got to start getting further away from the 200’s again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.

Day 47-07/31-193.8-(Trend weight 195.4)
Day 48-08/01-193.6-(Trend weight 195.2) I’ve changed my goals to 4 pounds per month instead of 5. That is one even pound per week with the half week being allowed for normal fluctuations or special occasions or travel. Seems easier and more realistic. Tomorrow I travel to the hospital for a CT scan of my lungs. They are still watching me for the nodule they found there a few years ago. My oncology appt at the University Hospital is closer to the end of the month and they want the information ahead of time. They keep checking it for behaviors of cancer, growth and signs to the breast cancer I had metastasizing. Hopefully it will all go well. Hey folks, let’s make August count!
Day 49-08/02-194.6-(Trend weight 195.2) I was absolutely FLOORED when I stepped on the scale all 5 times during this earlier than usual weigh-in before travel. Up a FULL pound? I was under 1000 calories for the day yesterday, no exercise because of no time, a good elimination for TMI. Why oh Why? I can only figure that it was no sleep and up early today for the travel to CT scan? I dunno. We’ll see what happens in the next couple of days after travel and the dust settles.
Day 50-08/03-196.8-(Trend weight 195.3) I was gone yesterday in my travels to the CT scan for about 12 hours. We had two meals out. While I watched my portions, we all know about hidden sodium in restaurant food. I was up all night going pee as my lower legs, ankles and abdomen hold this badly. Less pain in the ankles today. No TMI today so that doesn’t help. I have to continue to push water today to get rid of the contrast dye. My arm from the elbow all the way down to the hand is black and blue. Because I can’t use the right side (previous breast cancer/lymph removal) I can only use the left and they kept hitting scar tissue inside my veins from so much use. It took 4 tries and 3 techs but they finally got the I.V. in. Today I feel like an old lady who is falling apart instead of a middle-aged woman with lots of life and vitality left. I’m going to be extra careful with my diet today to mitigate the damage from the restaurant food. I’ll also be elevating my feet several times today. Gonna fit in a little fitness too I hope. I hate that this weight is showing up on the halfway point weigh-in. Ugh!
Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.8 pounds GAINED. 2.2 lbs of it was overnight. My trend weight is down 0.5 lbs. this challenge based on the last day of the last challenge.

Thank you, @dawnbgethealthy !

Ultimate goal 70 kg
Day 1 Thursday June 15 Already the 15th on my side of the world. 79 kg. I am at 25 BMI but my ethnicity calls for a lower BMI to get in a healthy weight range. Went for a 3 hour walk. went 1 cal over my net limit.
Day 2 Friday June 16 79 kg. No loss but maintaining is better than gaining. Didn't do much today as I'm coming down with a cold.
1st week goal weight: 78.8
1st week actual weight:79 kg
Day 3 Saturday June 17 78.8 kg
Day 4 Sunday June 18 78.4 kg. still coughing quite badly and food doesn't taste great, so keeping the calories down.
Day 5 Monday June 19 78 kg. 1 kilo in 5 days? Holy cow! I feel I'm eating enough. remind self that weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint. Prob this rate won't continue
Day 6 Tuesday June 20 78 kg
Day 7 Wednesday June 21 78.1 kg. Every day it isn't raining I go for at least a 60 min walk. While walking I look out for dropped coins. So far I have found 90 cents (US 54 cents) I plan to save it all and buy myself a non food treat at the end of the Challenge.
Day 8 Thursday June 22 78 kg. Keeping the salt down - but it's fat I want to lose, not water.
Day 9 Friday June 23 77.8 kg. Found $2 (US1.27) while walking. This week has def gone well.
2nd week goal weight: 78.3 kg
2nd week actual weight: 77.9 kg. Wow. Just wow. Don't know if this rate will continue, but I'll take the loss so far.
Day 10 Saturday June 24 77.8 kg
Day 11 Sunday June 25 78kg. Going in the wrong direction! So what did I do? Spent the day eating buttered toast and honey.
Day 12 Monday June 26 77.8 kg. Feeling lazy today so bought some potato salad for lunch. The spuds were undercooked and the mayo so sweet my teeth almost fell out. Maybe my tastebuds are becoming accustomed to less sugar? I am trying to avoid sauces and dressings and just using herbs and spices in cooking.
Day 13 Tuesday June 27 77.9 kg. Eating too much bread.
Day 14 Wednesday June 28 77.5 kg. Raining today so didn't walk. Drinking a load of black coffee which acts as an appetite suppressant for me.
Day 15 Thursday June 29 77.6 kg. Tried on a size 16D bra, was a little loose. Tried on an old 14C, was a bit too tight. How uncomfortable do I want to be until I lose a little more weight?
Day 16 Friday June 30 77.4 kg
3rd week goal weight: 77.2
3rd week actual weight: 77.4 Didn't quite reach target but I'll take the loss anyway.
Day 17 – Saturday July 01 77 kg. Waist 33.5 ins. Hips 43.5 ins.
Day 18 – Sunday July 02 76.8 kg. BMI 24.5. 2 more kilos to lose and I will be in the healthy range for my ethnicity. Hint - if you calculate BMI, use a calculator that takes into account age, gender and ethnicity, not just weight and height.
Day 19 – Monday July 03 76.7 kg
Day 20 – Tuesday July 04 76.5 kg - have lost a total of 9 kg (19.8 lbs) since starting MFP
Day 21 – Wednesday July 05 76.7 kg
Day 22 – Thursday July 06 76.8 kg. I am 65 today! Celebrated retirement by going to an Indian restaurant. Mmmm .... buttered naan bread ....

4th week goal weight: 76.5 kg
4th week actual weight: 76.4 kg. Made it!
Day 24 – Saturday July 08 76 kg! woot woot!
Day 25 – Sunday July 09 76 kg
Day 26 – Monday July 10 76.8 kg. Neighbor gave me a pot of homemade apricot jam. Note to self - pass on such future goodies to food pantry immediately instead of devouring jam sandwiches non stop ....
Day 27 – Tuesday July 11 76.4 kg
Day 28 – Wednesday July 12 76.2 kg
Day 29 – Thursday July 13 76 kg. Tonight we celebrated Matariki, the Rising of the Seven Sisters (the Pleiades). I was very restrained at the feast, only a small portion of roast pork and sweet potato, no potato bread, and just one scoop of ice cream. Part of the invite required a contribution to the food pantry, so I found a box of cereal, a jar of honey, some other sweet stuff and a can of coconut milk to donate - I hope someone needs to put on weight!
Day 30 – Friday July 14 75.5 kg! 3.5 kg lost in 30 days! Wow!

Day 33 – Monday July 17 76 kg
Day 34 – Tuesday July 18 75.3 kg
Day 35 – Wednesday July 19 75.1 kg
Day 36 – Thursday July 20 74.9 kg. Waist 33 ins. Hips 42 ins. Yes! Down in the Healthy BMI range! Aim to get down to 22 BMI.
Day 37 – Friday July 21 74.8 kg Thinking of doing some weight training in order to replace fat with muscle and develop some upper body strength.

Day 39 – Sunday July 23 74.9 kg
Day 40 – Monday July 24 75.1 kg
Day 41 – Tuesday July 25 74.9 kg. This feels like a plateau tho I'm still regularly below my net allowed calories.
Day 42 – Wednesday July 26 74.8 kg.
Day 43 – Thursday July 27 75 kg. Think I may be missing recording some calories somewhere. Need to be more vigilant.
Day 44 – Friday July 28 74.3 kg. Before MFP I weighed 100 kg (220 lbs) but managed to lose a fair bit of it even without tracking. Now I've lost over 25 kg (55 lbs) I tried on a cardigan I knitted for myself back then - and now it's enormous! I feel like the Saggy, Baggy Elephant wearing it. Off to the thrift store with it! I'll knit myself a new one after I've kept the weight off for a while.
7th week goal weight: Setting weekly goals doesn't do much for me, I find - just keeping my eye on the overall goal and celebrating various milestones as they occur.
7th week actual weight:
Day 45 – Saturday July 29 74.5 kg
Day 46 – Sunday July 30 75.1 kg. I made a start on decluttering today, after watching youtube videos. Two shopping bags of size 18 clothes donated - I swear on Peter Rabbit's lettuce I will never let myself get that big again. Size 14 now - would like to get back to 12.
Day 47 – Monday July 31 74.8 kg
Day 48 – Tuesday August 01 74.5 kg. Sometimes I weigh myself with a towel on. Sometimes I don't.
Day 49 – Wednesday August 02 74.2 kg.

Finally catching up on all of your posts.
I burned myself (forearm) on a steam table last night at work, so am off of work today. I was scheduled to work 45 days straight which would really have helped me out $$
I am scheduled for 10:30am tomorrow, and 7:00am Sunday, but I think that there is too much heat with those jobs near my burned arm so have to take those off also.
Strapping revolving ice packs on with hair scrunchies. Feels great while they are on.
So, it took me an hour on this forum today. Mind you I had some catching up to do.
Really trying to examine my time management.3 -
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 118.
I have made a decision to limit restaurant food to 6 times per year since I seem to gain a few pounds each time which could take 3-6 months to get back off from one visit.
Rolling total so far: 3 out of the 6
1st week goal weight: 143.4 (ambitious?)
1st week actual weight: 144.4
2nd week goal weight: Less than the beginning of the week, 142.2
2nd week actual weight: 142.6, so gained 0.4
3rd week goal weight: 141.4
3rd week actual weight: 144.6 - Started the week at 142.4, so 1.8 pound gain this week
4th week goal weight: 143.6
4th week actual weight: 145.0 - Started the week at 144.6
5th week goal weight: 142.6
5th week actual weight: 143.2
6th week goal weight: 142.4
6th week actual weight: 144.0
7th week goal weight: 142.6
7th week actual weight: 143.6
Day 45 – Saturday July 29 - 144.8 - No surprise, I had restaurant (my restaurant) food. Calories were on point as was exercise, but we all know about restaurant food. I split beef samosas and chicken biryani with one of the other girls. Delicious. My vow to have restaurant food only 6 times per year sits at 3 out of the 6 now. Working a split shift again today and tomorrow, normal on Monday. I am booking off Tuesday and Wednesday completely, I will have worked 12 days straight over my 3 jobs. I will go to a lake for sure (100 degrees here too) and possibly even camp.
Day 46 – Sunday July 30 - 146.2!! - That restaurant food aftermath!!!
Day 47 – Monday July 31 - 145.0
Day 48 – Tuesday August 01 - 144.4

9th week goal weight:
9th week actual weight:
I have decided to do another 21 day mini challenge of the legs up and arm weight exercises. The pulsating in my legs when I put them up shows me how much I really need to drain them regularly. And the extra bonus that I went from 12.5" on my upper arm down to 11.75" and honestly feel like my batwings are less flappy. I will count from the day before since I often type into here before any activity for the day, while drinking my coffee in the morning.
Anyone else going to join us for another 21?
Mini 21 day Challenge Round 2 - legs in the air arm weights exercises, 6-ish minutes.
Start weight of this 100: 144.4 - Up one pound from the start of the last 100 of 143.4, and the previous was 142.2
Day 1, Monday July 17.23 - 6 minutes, skull crushers, chest presses, bicep curls. I realize that the days that I missed (and made up for with doubles or triples) were days when I worked 2 jobs and got home late famished. I had 5 water crackers with 2tbsp of hummus to delay hunger for 6 minutes and had dinner after doing my legs up. Using 11.75" arm measurement as the beginning measure from the last day of the previous 21.
Day 2 - 6 minutes which has shown to be the sweet spot to get 3 arm weighted exercises in.
Day 3 - 6.5 minutes, must have done them slower because I was out of time before I finished.
Day 4 - 5.5 minutes - Did the same exercises, must have done them faster!
Day 5 - 6.5 minutes - I am happy that I am continuing on with my newest habit of 5 black pepper water crackers with hummus when I get home from work to stave off hunger so that I can get these legs up sessions in without being insanely hungry.
Day 6 - 6.25 minutes - It feels really good to do this!
Day 7 - 6.5 minutes - How lovely it will be to firm up the arms. Dancing has changed my abs in a big way and loosened my joints each day, but this...is different.
Day 8 - 7 minutes. Same 3 exercises, obviously some days I do them quicker or slower. I feel like I am doing myself a big favour while I am laying there with legs up. It makes me happy that I am taking a few minutes for myself.
Day 9, Tuesday July 25 - 6.5 minutes of the usual, almost didn't get it in, it was close to midnight when I remembered. Pretty happy to have done it.
Day 10 - 6.25 minutes. Actually didn't feel like doing it, but within the first minute it felt so great! Very glad that I pushed through and got it done. I really would like this to become a lifelong habit, I know that it is so good for me not only for throbbing knees and ankles, but also to tighten up those arms.
Day 11 - 6.5 minutes. My one ankle looks so thin while my legs are up. The other is full of plates and pins so will always be thicker. Lol, of course when I stand up my bottom heavy self returns.
Day 12 - 6.15 minutes. So lovely to do this, especially at the end of a long day.
Day 13, July 29 - Kept this up even though I wasn't posting on forums, 5-7 minutes per day

We take motivation anywhere we can get it. A trip to Cancun sounds like the perfect reason!! Lots of time to get to where you want to be for your bathing suit : - )

You said:
"I was under 1000 calories for the day yesterday, no exercise because of no time, a good elimination for TMI. "
No exercise, but 1000 calories under? So you ate only 200-400 calories for the entire day? What is your normal calorie goal on MFP? MFP already takes into account breathing and stuff.
I eat between 1,000 - 1,700 normally. My MFP goal is 1200.
