    For anyone who would also like to participate in the 21 day strength challenges, here are the dates for the 1st one which started last round and will finish in this round. All that is required is that you try to incorporate some sort of strength training for 5 minutes or more per day for 21 days in a row (or as best as you can). This can include arm or hand weights, resistance bands, isometrics, or anything you feel is strengthening any muscle group you choose to work on. Some of us are also putting our legs up before, during or after to help with lymphatic or general draining in our feet, ankles and legs although that is not necessary for you to do in order to join in. Here are the current 21 days:

    Hi everyone.
    I am Dawn. 5'2", 63 years old as of September 20th.
    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: 4 out of the 6

    100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Sept 23, 2023 thru Dec 31, 2023
    My Name is Donna, Age 63. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA


    145320379.png

    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 #9 --- 185.2
    Round #10—195.2
    Round #11---200.8
    Round #12---200.4
    Round #13---196.2
    Round #14---191.2
    Round #15---194.0
    Round #16---188.0

    Thoughts at the start of this challenge:

    1. I am down 23.3 pounds from my highest ending weight during these challenges (#5)
    2. I up 2.8 pounds from my lowest ending weight (#9)
    3. I am still down 11.8 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 continue to dedicate myself 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: 176.0 (12 lbs)
    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 188.0
    Challenge Ending Weight: xxxxx

    Accumulated Loss or Gain:

    Strength Training Mini Challenge Round 5:
    I will continue to work on batwing arms and flabby thighs. I will also try to engage in some floor/standing/chair exercising to tighten stomach area especially.

    Day 01 - Sept 18 – 8 min with 5 lb weights, 25 min of aerobic dance, 75 min of walking in the school halls track, 15 min of regular floor exercises.
    Day 02 - Sept 19 – 5 min with 5 lb weights. Travel day for dental cleanings. Shopping day too. Not as many steps as I had hoped though.
    Day 03 - Sept 20 – 5 min with 5 lb weights. 115 min of walking at 2.5 mph. I closed all my circles on my fitbit easily (for once).
    Day 04 - Sept 21 – 5 min with 5 lb weights. 47 min on exercise bike including HIIT. Iso knee therapy x 3.

    This will be an exiting new 100 day challenge (#17) as we venture into the holiday Candy and Foodie seasons of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and Christmas.

    This is the time of year we usually beginning filling our candy dishes and it doesn't stop until our New Years Resolutions in January! This is the time that many of our weather/seasons change (depending on where you live) and outdoor activities become difficult to impossible for fitness. This is the time that many begin to gain weight.

    Some of us are here to LOSE weight, not gain it. Some of us are here to add fitness to their daily lives. Some of us (or maybe all of us) are here to get and stay as healthy as possible. Let's focus on our individual goals for this 100 days, whatever they may be. We can accomplish anything if we work together and put in the work. Weight loss is not linear. It has it's peaks and it's Valleys. It's wins and it's losses. Its numbers, patterns and NSVs that show up in unexpected ways and places. It's exciting to see what the next 100 days holds for each of us.

    I appreciate each and everyone of you for sharing your knowledge, your methods, your recipes, your product recommendations, your regimen, your vitamin or supplement protocol, your exercise routines and preferences, your downfalls and weaknesses, your great ideas and your wins. There is always more to learn and something to share. And we all love to hear about your life and your families so feel free to use this these pages as your journal or your diary. It's great that we are here for each other and its nice getting to know each and every one of you.

    Welcome back to all the old friends and a big Hello and Welcome to all the new friends. Good Luck everyone. Let's make it happen and have a little fun along the way!

    100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Sept 23, 2023 thru Dec 31, 2023
    My Name is Donna, Age 63. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA


    145320379.png

    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 #9 --- 185.2
    Round #10—195.2
    Round #11---200.8
    Round #12---200.4
    Round #13---196.2
    Round #14---191.2
    Round #15---194.0
    Round #16---188.0

    Thoughts at the start of this challenge:

    1. I am down 23.3 pounds from my highest ending weight during these challenges (#5)
    2. I up 2.8 pounds from my lowest ending weight (#9)
    3. I am still down 11.8 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 continue to dedicate myself and put in the work. When I do, clearly the results are much better.

    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 01-09/23-187.8-(Trend weight 190.6) Just a teeny tiny little drop on the scale. I will continue to experiment with zig-zagging my calories and see what happens. I think I am adding too much bread (or bread products like wraps or pita) to my day even though they are low calorie AND low to zero carb. That may be slowing me down. I will back off a little on that today though that is tough for me. I have it stuck in my head that I can’t get full unless I have bread of some sort with every meal. Working on new habits and thoughts is so hard! Good luck everyone this round. Let’s crush it!
