Hi everyone.
I am Dawn. 5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 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
Week 1 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 1 actual weight - 142.0 - Started the week at 143.2
Week 2 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 2 actual weight - 141.6 - Started the week at 142.2 - First week of eating 1/2 a banana each day
Day 15-10/07 - 141.8 - 2 days off! Still tired from the week, but it is sunny and blue. It is going to be a beautiful afternoon. Over the next 2 days I have a list of things that I want to do/accomplish. I will get some Fitness Marshall songs in before I begin digging, lifting, raking etc.
Day 16-10/08 - 142.0 - Climbing a bit each day on this weekend. Worked outside most of yesterday and plan to do the same today. It is very nice out here : - ) Sometimes I do gain weight from working outside, sometimes just from being a bit indulgent. Cooking up Rutabaga, potatoes, brussels sprouts, carrots this morning, to go with stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy and some turkey for Thanksgiving and for the entire week. Going to get my garlic planted today and then rake all of the leaves from the front to put on top of it (supposed to have 4 inches of leaves).
Day 17-10/09 - 143.0 - Yup, a whole pound up from yesterday, but that is how it usually goes with me. Kind of don't care, planning on eating the exact same thing all week - sans the turkey. I usually only buy the boxed kind, turkey roast breast, no bones or skin. It was out of stock with my grocery order. I am okay with that, I was quite full even without the meat. Finished cleaning the weeds out of the garlic bed, then got on a chair (it is 3 feet tall) to turn it all over with a spade, planted 12 rows of 10 cloves each and I have lots left to eat : - ). I still need to rake enough leaves to cover it. I had a piccolo of Henkell Trocken and Camembert before dinner, I won't be having that this week. I also had a glass of Pinot Noir, so have an entire bottle open which I do plan on having a glass of each night with my Thanksgiving dinner.
Day 18-10/10 - 142.6 - Worked a split at the restaurant so had 2 hours off in between to grab a bite to eat, a wonderful fresh tomato sandwich. I have about 10 vine ripened beautiful tomatoes left, the rest are ripening in a box but those will be for cooking, not sandwich worthy. I got the leaves raked and piled onto my newly planted Garlic bed during my break, so feel very happy about that. I had 3 ounces of Pinot Noir with my Thanksgiving meal after work, plan to do exactly that every day this week. Not really missing the turkey part at all.
Day 19-10/11 - 143.6 - Cooked up a few more brussels sprouts and stuffing this morning to continue on with my thanksgiving dinner week. Used up the carrots that I had cooked, but it has been raining and cold so won't be going out to dig more this morning. 2 jobs today, pacing myself.
Day 20-10/12 - 143.4 - I had dug one mound of potatoes on Sunday and then it rained for 3 days. I went out this morning to gather them, peel them and cook them. I understand that they should stay on the ground for 24 hours after digging to stop them from going green which is toxic? Between my 1/2 banana each day and trying to eat a bit of potato each night I am trying to prevent night cramps in my legs. I have about 8 more mounds of potatoes that are not ready yet, the green has to die off and then the potatoes are ready to dig.
Day 21-10/13 - 143.2 - I had a really tough time with copy and paste this morning!! Hoping that doing this as a "quote" will work? Can't seem to copy next week's dates as yet either.
Week 3 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 3 actual weight - 143.2 - Started the week at 141.8
Mini 21 day Challenge
Legs straight up (draining) with arm weights exercises, 4-6-ish minutes.
Round 1, June 25.23 start: 12.5" start, 11.75" end.
Round 2: 11.75" start, 11.5" Even though my weight is higher, my batwings are getting smaller?
I have a mole, so it is easy to measure in exactly the same place.
Round 3: 11.5" - Wow, a whole inch off of my upper arm since beginning this!!
Round 4: 11.0" start 11.5- So pleased!!
Round 5: September 18 - October 08. 11.25 started with 11.0 but completely okay with that, maybe building some muscle there.
Round 6: October 09 - 29 -
Going to keep this up. 4-5 minutes is easy to fit into a schedule. Positive new habit.
Day 01 - Oct 09 – 4:45 of the 3. Made up this session on the morning of the 10th. Obviously went pretty quickly since I had to get to work.

Day 15: 0/07 - 229.1 / 228.6 - Walked ~1.5 miles with stroller, A 64 oz. Up early with granddaughter and forgot to weigh until after a glass of water and coffee. Oh well it is what it is. Still stepped on the scale. Lots of food with family to watch afternoon LSU football game.
Day 16: 10/08 - 229.3 / 228.8 - Walked 1+ miles with stroller.
Day 17: 10/09 - 228.7 /228.7 - Strength Training 1 hr. AF
Day 18: 10/10 - 229.5 / 228.9 - Need to start all my better habits AGAIN as I skipped out over the weekend. No exercise. Clogged pipe line causing kitchen & laundry room sink to overflow and flood that area of the house when the washing machine was running. Plumber. Home alone after dinner as DH had a club meeting. Nice evening … worked a Halloween puzzle my daughter gave me. AF.
Day 19: 10/11 - 229.3 / 229.0 - After yesterday’s disaster now is the time for better habits AGAIN since yesterday was a mental wreck. Well I totally forgot my new art class Wed morning after getting waved off on babysitting. Shopped for art supplies and worked the puzzle. DH had the mixer and pumpkin out when I got home because I had promised to make cookies.
Day 20: 0/12 - 299.9 / 229.3 - Headed in the wrong direction! Darn pumpkin cookies. Nothing for the rest of the week during the day so I plan to paint … brush up on my new art skills and finish the puzzle. My knees have been killing me this week and I think I know why. Monday I did the Strong & Fit strength class for an hour. Includes 6 min of squats and 6 min of lunges. I think that did in my knees because this time I really did them instead of slightly like the week before. I’ve avoided walking and biking because they just ache. Today I get back on the bike to loosen up those muscles and joints.
Day 21: 10/13 - 231 Yesterday I biked and gardened (cut back roses and weeded) yet high calories at my sister’s house for bunco plus red beans & rice for lunch just pushed me over on the scale. Where is my determination?3 -

Week 3:
Day 15-10/07: 172.8 not unexpected bump up in wt. Foot is responding well to meds. Sunny day here so heading out for a paddle in a couple of hours. Paddled just over an hr. Beautiful fall colors but wind never let up so we were dealing with waves 95% of the time. Followed up by a mini version of Thanksgiving dinner; turkey cutlets (parmesan) with canned gravy which was surprisingly good.
Day 16-10/08: 174.2 Back to work this morning.
Day 17-10/09: 174.6 {12 water, 26/23 WW pts, counting work as exercise} Tired ++. Bed early tonite.
Day 18-10/10: 174.6 Upgraded to WW Premium which includes workshops ( I think). This summer I was aware of being unable to run to catch frisbee with DGS (dear grand son). Last nite as I was working thru questions to reveal my ultimate “Why”, this came up as the leading reason I want to regain fitness, agility and strength. I am a stress eater and Lord knows, there’s plenty of stress in my life that’s from uncontrollable sources. I’m also stressed by regaining this weight and it’s impact on me; then realized that this was one major source of stress that is within my control.
Day 19-10/11: 172.2 30 min hike incl ‘my hill’ which is steep ( had to stop for breath x5; plan is to get down to 1 stop). 12+ water. On Plan so far and feeling in control.
Day 20-10/12: 172.2 Awesome sunny day. Hike “Squirrel Log Hill” .. 4 stops. Some yardwork etc. Stopped at Desert Hills ( huge fruit and veg outlet) .. have cauliflower and peppers to freeze tonite. Sauerkraut tomorrow.
Day 21-10/13: 172.4 A busy, social day ahead. Invited out for BD cake this afternoon. Crossing fingers I can stay smart and just have ½ a small piece. These are dear friends but coffee at their place always means a table full of cheeses, sweets, etc etc. *sigh* wish they just served coffee or tea. Altho I can usually resist most it still sets cravings in motion that just create a feeling of anxiety.
WEEK 3 Target Wt: 169.?
Week 3 Actual Wt: 172.4
Accumulated Loss or Gain: still caught in this 3# yo-yo
Focusing on being 169.? one week from now.

A week late to this new challenge, after falling off the wagon for a while. But I’m so glad to be back. Celebrated my 60th on 09/23 and I’m feeling good. Now to get back into the habit of weighing and logging in daily. I believe this is my 4th 100-day challenge. Good luck everyone!
Day 10-10/02-142.8 – New day, new start! Looking forward to being productive with work and to get some exercise in today. Need to work on my eating habits.
Day 11-10/03-142.5 – No workout yesterday but eating was pretty much on point. Probably not going to exercise today as well since I’m meeting friends for Happy Hour. I’ll try my best not to go overboard with alcohol and carbs (“don’t slash the other tires” LOL). One of the friends I’m meeting has returned to Maui for a funeral for family members who perished in the recent wildfire here. Lots of healing still to be done.
Day 12-10/04-141.7 – Wasn’t planning on working out yesterday, but my anxiety was high for most of the day, so I decided to jump on the Peloton to try to relieve it. Good call. Also, great get together with friends in the early evening and the ‘everything in moderation’ attitude performed well: just one glass of wine and an appetizer!
Day 13-10/05-DNW – Had a great start to the day yesterday, even got in a work out in the afternoon, until uncontrollable late night snacking got me. So, I didn’t want to feel even more disgusted by seeing the number on the scale this morning. On another note, it’s a beautiful day outside!
Day 14-10/06-143.4 – Not happy about this gain, but not surprised. This is the result of the copious amounts of sugar 2 & 3 days ago. [sigh]. Did well yesterday and if I keep it up, I should be happy with progress by Sunday.
WEEK 2 LOSS OR GAIN: +0.6
Accumulated Loss or Gain: +0.6
Day 15-10/07-143.5 – Nothing exciting to report. Just trudging along.
Day 16-10/08-DNW
Day 17-10/09-144.3 – Have to work harder. I don’t remember it being this hard.
Day 18-10/10-144.4 – Had a productive day yesterday, but no workout. Did not go off the rails with “bad” foods. I’m too close to 145 lbs. Need to reel it in.
Day 19-10/11-144.3 – Yesterday’s workout: 50 min spin class. But snacking gets me everytime.
Day 20-10/12-143.8 – Yesterday’s workout: 20-min full body kettlebells, 5-min core and 20-min spin class. I hope I worked off the calories & carbs from my hamburger & fries from McDonald’s. No chips all day… yay me!
Day 21-10/13-xxxxx-142.7 – Happy with this scale read. Low carb day yesterday and no “bad” snacking. Took a break from working out. My body was hurting from the kettlebell workout the day before. Harder to recover the older I get.
WEEK 3 LOSS: -0.70
Accumulated Loss: -0.1

Goal This Round: 176.0 (12 lbs)
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 188.0
Challenge Ending Weight: xxxxx
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
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.

Day 19-10/11-183.0-(Trend weight 186.7)
Day 20-10/12-185.0-(Trend weight 186.6) The scale is up from my zig-zag experiment and is expected. Yesterday was my highest day on the schedule and I did go over by quite a bit but I know I didn’t eat 7000 extra calories so I am okay with this. Honestly, I needed the extra calories as my week had been sketchy and difficult to manage my macros properly. This is likely fluid retention from dinner out yesterday before the school concert, glycogen refilling somewhat and no TMI for 2 days causing some pretty bad low lower stomach cramping and labor type pains. I can feel the inflammation there. Noon dismissal today and tomorrow for DGS (kindergarten) so I’ll be meeting the bus and babysitting. I don’t feel up for it though. Honestly, I just want to stay in my nightgown all day.
Day 21-10/13-185.4-(Trend weight 186.4) I’ll attribute my uptick to no TMI now x 3. Took some stool softeners yesterday but they have not helped produce. Lower tummy still hurting in spurts. I don’t really feel that I ate anything differently prior to the onset. I know I was low on water so I will try to drink that down today again. It’s another cold fall day here. Gloomy with some rain expected again. I’ll have to fit in some indoor exercising again. Babysitting my DGS so I guess how much exercise I get in will be up to him.
WEEK 3 LOSS OR GAIN: 2.6 lbs LOST
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 2.6 lbs. LOST
Strength Training Mini Challenge Round 6:
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. I will try to add in some aerobic exercise like walking or dancing or the exercise bike AT LEAST 5 days a week. This is not my dream, it is my pledge to myself.
Day 01 - Oct 09 – 6 min with 5 lb weights, 70 minutes walking inside the school, 15 min of regular floor exercises, Iso knee x 3.
Day 02 - Oct 10 – 5 min with 2 lb weights, 15 minutes of general floor exercises. Iso knee x 1. I didn’t do much in the form of exercise yesterday. I was so sore and I think it was from the walking on the hard floors of the school the day before. I did do about 15 minutes of floor exercising and stretching after I closed out my MFP last night to try and loosen things up. It feels slightly better today. I lowered my weights down to accommodate sore shoulders.
Day 03 - Oct 11 – 5 min with loop arm bands, 33 min on exercise bike including HIIT, 16 min of aerobic dancing, 15 min of general floor exercises, Iso knee therapy x 3.
Day 04 - Oct 12 – 5 min with 5 lb weights, 43 min on exercise bike, 15 min of general floor exercises. Iso knee therapy x 1.

Accumulated Loss or Gain:2 -
I want to lose at least 4.9 kg in this round. Bolded numbers means a new low.
Day 1 86.7 kg 2x45 min walks
Day 2 86.0 45 min walk
Day 3 85.9 2x45 min walks
--- Tracking my intake from now on, aiming for 6,000 kJ, posting total overeating above that number
Day 4 85.9 45 minute walk
Day 5 86.5 45 minute walk, 946 kJ under eating
--- Doing a little experiment, how many days in a row can I burn more energy than I eat? Starting day 7
Day 6 86.0 I had a bit of a sugar fest to celebrate the start of a new, 20 week online course. I don't know with accuracy what the energy value of it is, I'm going to reset the over eating counter to zero and start again
Day 7 86.2 5925 KJ, 2x45 min walks, losing 82 grams a day according to spreadsheet
Day 8 86.0 5929 kJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 9 85.5 5896KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 10 85.0 2x45 min walk, lowest weight in 47 days. My walking is definitely working because I wasn't walking 47 days ago. So I had 3 "excellent" days and 3 days in a row of eating less than I burned. That's not a particularly big achievement, I scanned back some old records and I saw 17 days in a row where I ate less than I burned. So I'm going to aim to beat that record, starting October 13. Mark your calendars. Threewins will attempt a lifetime record.
Day 11 85.4 911 KJ total overeating, 2x45 min walks
Day 12 85.5 320 KJ total under eating, 2x45 min walks
Day 13 84.4, lowest weight in 76 days, 6160 KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 14 84.7, 5855 KJ average intake, 2x45 min walks
Day 15 83.9, lowest weight in 102 days, 5909 KJ average, 2x45 min walks. I weighed 87.0 kg on the 22nd September, now with my most recent loss I'm losing since then 157 grams a day which means I've gotten to 1 kg a week, something which has rarely happened in my life, maybe half a dozen times, always briefly. I know that it's not just caused by fat loss but it's nice to see anyway.
Day 16 So. They say ignorance is bliss so I've led a very blissful life in the last 2 years, 10 months, 8 days. I really don't know what I was doing, living in a nice place, no job which I needed to go to and stress me out. I took the risk of looking back at my spreadsheet since my heaviest ever on 1st January 2021 and seeing how my weight loss progress was going. That graph has a lot of bumps. Then I removed all the rebounds and looked at the graph again. 1,010 days to lose 11.5 kg vs 144 days to lose 11.8 kg. So I've wasted 2 years, 4 months, and I'm still not back at the weight I was 5 months ago.
I've been tracking my intake during that period and it makes sense. There are some large spikes on that particular graph, it's not a graph you'd be proud of.
I'm not the sort to dwell on past mistakes so I'll just have a plan. My plan is to not have any rebounds. I want my 10 day average graph to head downwards, just like it did on my second 144 day graph. So I'll be posting my 10 day average and looking out for any gains. Small gains caused by water fluctuations are fine. Let's see how I go.
84.1, 85.1 10 day average, 5951 KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 17 83.9, 84.8 10 day average, 350 days until goal weight, 6347 KJ average food, 2x45 min walk, 3.4 km walk
Day 18, 84.5, 84.7 10 day average, 355 days until goal weight, 6419 KJ average food, 2x45 min walks, 3.0 km walk
Day 19 84.4, 84.6 10 day average, 333 days until goal weight, 2x45 min walks
Day 20 84.5, 84.5 10 day average, 275 days until goal weight
--- Attempting my lifetime record of most number of days eating less than burning, I need more than 17 days
Day 21, 85.6, 84.6 10 day average, 265 days until goal weight, 45 min walk, 9167 kJ of food which probably means I've failed in my first day of attempting my lifetime record, especially since I didn't do a second exercise session
Day 22 85.7, 84.6 10 day average, 253 days until goal weight2 -

Back again! I went from 79 kg to 71.5 kg in the last Challenge. Planning to get down to 67 kg (147.4lb) in the next 100 days.
Day 01-09/23-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. Received news this morning that a family member in Ireland has had a heart attack. It was partly her fault because she heard of my weight loss success and tried to go on a crazy sort of almost religious diet with nothing but raw fruit and walking 18,000 steps a day. At 62 years old! Luckily she is recovering well, but it makes me more careful about sticking to a slow, sustainable rate. The tortoise always beats the hare.
Day 02-09/24-xxxxx- 72 kg. Unsure of my BMI because I used to be 5' 10" (177.8 cm) but now I've lost, maybe an inch? Or Two? I'll tentatively say 175 cm. So 23.5 BMI. PRetty good, but I'd like to, ideally, 22. But will settle for 22.5.
Day 03-09/25-xxxxx- 72 kg. Found a whole $NZ3.00 (USD1.80) out walking today. Wish it was like that everyday!
Day 04-09/26-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. Went to an Art Exhibition opening and demolished a plate of sandwiches. I am not safe in the presence of bread.
Day 05-09/27-xxxxx- 72.1 kg. Whatever has happened! Could it be something I ate last night?
Day 06-09/28-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. I think the scale has a sense of humor and is playing pranks on me.
Day 07-09/29-xxxxx- 71.9 kg
WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.4 kg gain. Not off to the best of starts. Trying to keep the total calories in at less than 1600 regardless of amount lost through exercise.
Accumulated Loss or Gain:
Day 08-09/30-xxxxx- 72 kg. Normally I drink my coffee black, but today I had my annual treat of pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks. (the smallest size)
Day 09-10/01-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. ....number on the bathroom scale, whither will you wander? Upstairs, downstairs, in the refrigerator....
Day 10-10/02-xxxxx- 71.7 kg.
Day 11-10/03-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. Hopefully have recovered from the mindless snacking of the last 10 days and back to better habits ..... but now I am stress shopping online a lot .... telling myself that it is all for Christmas gifts....
Day 12-10/04-xxxxx- 71.2 kg.
Day 13-10/05-xxxxx- 71.2 kg. Second day in a row off eating less than I burned ..... hopefully I can go the next 5 days and see some results. Picking up the exercise to 90 mins walk a day.
Day 14-10/06-xxxxx- 71.1 kg. Ate some cheese I hadn't planned for, walked for an extra 60 mins to burn it off. Tired but in a positive mood.
WEEK 2 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.8 kg - more than anticipated - seems like I was eating a lot and not losing much, but I started Week 2 heavier than at the start of Week 1.
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 0.4 kg. Hopefully I can lose this much every week in order to meet my goal of 67 kg.
Day 15-10/07-xxxxx- 71 kg Ate over my limit. Start again and try for a week.
Day 16-10/08-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. Ate under my limit, but then had a can of gin and soda....(a rare event for me)
Day 17-10/09-xxxxx- 72 kg. Looking in my closet I found a size 4XL top I haven't worn since I was 100 kg (220 lb), back in 2021. I dropped it off at the Salvation Army after making a solemn vow never to get that heavy again.
Day 18-10/10-xxxxx- 71 kg. Started off with avo on toast for breakfast, but later in the morning felt very unwell. Stayed in bed for the rest of the day with no food, just water/
Day 19-10/11-xxxxx- 70.5 kg. Was able to get up and go out today. Still not much of an appetite, and coffee taste horrible, but at least I'm losing weight.
Day 20-10/12-xxxxx- 70 kg Waist 31.5 ins, Hips 40.5 ins.- not the best way to reach the stretch goal I set at the start of the year, but I'll take it. Feeling much better today, still ate some extra protein and went easy on the fiber. At the start of the year I made myself a disincentive promise that if I didn't lose the weight I would send a $240 donation to a Politician I Very Much Hope Is Not Reelected. If I can keep at the current weight until the end of the year Mister Obnoxious will get nothing from me!
Day 21-10/13-xxxxx- 70 kg. Exercising a little less, for maintenance, but also eating a little less - only half a lemon cupcake as a treat today, everything else was healthy. My focus now is less on continuing to lose and more on keeping the weight steady through the Holiday Season to the end of the year - which will be on us sooner than we expect! I do still have my rescued can of beer in the fridge, but will wait a few more days - alcohol once a week is enough.
WEEK 3 LOSS OR GAIN: 1 kg.
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 1.5 kg - that's a little over one pound a week, just as MFP predicted.
Day 22-10/14-xxxxx- 70.3 kg. I took some of the money I have found on the ground during my daily walks and bought a bag of colorful cotton yarn at the Sally Army. Intending to knit myself a pretty summer shawl. Then I met up with a friend for lunch and we shared a chicken salad wrap, which I thought would be healthy, but it turned out to have a bucketload of super sweet mayo.

Goal This Round: 176.0 (12 lbs)

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
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.

Previous WeeksDay 21-10/13-185.4-(Trend weight 186.4) I’ll attribute my uptick to no TMI now x 3. Took some stool softeners yesterday but they have not helped produce. Lower tummy still hurting in spurts. I don’t really feel that I ate anything differently prior to the onset. I know I was low on water so I will try to drink that down today again. It’s another cold fall day here. Gloomy with some rain expected again. I’ll have to fit in some indoor exercising again. Babysitting my DGS so I guess how much exercise I get in will be up to him.
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 22-10/14-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) My DGS got me up very early. He was already full of energy and hungry for his pumpkin pancakes so I forgot to weigh before drinking my coffee. Yesterday I was over on calories and carbs due to foodie DD bringing fall treats so I’m sure there has been no progress. I did jump on the exercise bike late last night for 32 minutes even though it was a very busy evening and it was very late when I did it. I also canceled all my own planned snacks because of it. Today is scheduled to be a normal calorie & carb day on zig-zag so while there should not be a dramatic drop, especially after the goodies yesterday, I’m hoping it will keep any collateral damage at bay. I was polite yesterday but today I will not be eating any of her kind, thoughtful, generous junk.

Strength Training Mini Challenge Round 6:
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. I will try to add in some aerobic exercise like walking or dancing or the exercise bike AT LEAST 5 days a week. This is not my dream, it is my pledge to myself.
Day 01 - Oct 09 – 6 min with 5 lb weights, 70 minutes walking inside the school, 15 min of regular floor exercises, Iso knee x 3.
Day 02 - Oct 10 – 5 min with 2 lb weights, 15 minutes of general floor exercises. Iso knee x 1. I didn’t do much in the form of exercise yesterday. I was so sore and I think it was from the walking on the hard floors of the school the day before. I did do about 15 minutes of floor exercising and stretching after I closed out my MFP last night to try and loosen things up. It feels slightly better today. I lowered my weights down to accommodate sore shoulders.
Day 03 - Oct 11 – 5 min with loop arm bands, 33 min on exercise bike including HIIT, 16 min of aerobic dancing, 15 min of general floor exercises, Iso knee therapy x 3.
Day 04 - Oct 12 – 5 min with 5 lb weights, 43 min on exercise bike, 15 min of general floor exercises. Iso knee therapy x 1.

@dawnbgethealthy - I'm not having any issues on my computer using the website version. I'm not on my phone much for community posts ... just logging food.
Yes, I use my computer too.
It seems fine today, so just a glitch I guess : - )
Haha, it was Friday the 13th yesterday.
I expect that your temps are a little more bearable around this time of year to get out and play in your garden : - )3 -
Thank you for keeping us going @deepwoodslady !!
Hi everyone.
I am Dawn. 5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 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
Week 1 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 1 actual weight - 142.0 - Started the week at 143.2
Week 2 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 2 actual weight - 141.6 - Started the week at 142.2 - First week of eating 1/2 a banana each day
Day 15-10/07 - 141.8 - 2 days off! Still tired from the week, but it is sunny and blue. It is going to be a beautiful afternoon. Over the next 2 days I have a list of things that I want to do/accomplish. I will get some Fitness Marshall songs in before I begin digging, lifting, raking etc.
Day 16-10/08 - 142.0 - Climbing a bit each day on this weekend. Worked outside most of yesterday and plan to do the same today. It is very nice out here : - ) Sometimes I do gain weight from working outside, sometimes just from being a bit indulgent. Cooking up Rutabaga, potatoes, brussels sprouts, carrots this morning, to go with stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy and some turkey for Thanksgiving and for the entire week. Going to get my garlic planted today and then rake all of the leaves from the front to put on top of it (supposed to have 4 inches of leaves).
Day 17-10/09 - 143.0 - Yup, a whole pound up from yesterday, but that is how it usually goes with me. Kind of don't care, planning on eating the exact same thing all week - sans the turkey. I usually only buy the boxed kind, turkey roast breast, no bones or skin. It was out of stock with my grocery order. I am okay with that, I was quite full even without the meat. Finished cleaning the weeds out of the garlic bed, then got on a chair (it is 3 feet tall) to turn it all over with a spade, planted 12 rows of 10 cloves each and I have lots left to eat : - ). I still need to rake enough leaves to cover it. I had a piccolo of Henkell Trocken and Camembert before dinner, I won't be having that this week. I also had a glass of Pinot Noir, so have an entire bottle open which I do plan on having a glass of each night with my Thanksgiving dinner.
Day 18-10/10 - 142.6 - Worked a split at the restaurant so had 2 hours off in between to grab a bite to eat, a wonderful fresh tomato sandwich. I have about 10 vine ripened beautiful tomatoes left, the rest are ripening in a box but those will be for cooking, not sandwich worthy. I got the leaves raked and piled onto my newly planted Garlic bed during my break, so feel very happy about that. I had 3 ounces of Pinot Noir with my Thanksgiving meal after work, plan to do exactly that every day this week. Not really missing the turkey part at all.
Day 19-10/11 - 143.6 - Cooked up a few more brussels sprouts and stuffing this morning to continue on with my thanksgiving dinner week. Used up the carrots that I had cooked, but it has been raining and cold so won't be going out to dig more this morning. 2 jobs today, pacing myself.
Day 20-10/12 - 143.4 - I had dug one mound of potatoes on Sunday and then it rained for 3 days. I went out this morning to gather them, peel them and cook them. I understand that they should stay on the ground for 24 hours after digging to stop them from going green which is toxic? Between my 1/2 banana each day and trying to eat a bit of potato each night I am trying to prevent night cramps in my legs. I have about 8 more mounds of potatoes that are not ready yet, the green has to die off and then the potatoes are ready to dig.
Day 21-10/13 - 143.2 - I had a really tough time with copy and paste this morning!! Hoping that doing this as a "quote" will work? Can't seem to copy next week's dates as yet either.
Week 3 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 3 actual weight - 143.2 - Started the week at 141.8

Week 4 actual weight
Mini 21 day Challenge
Legs straight up (draining) with arm weights exercises, 4-6-ish minutes.
Round 1, June 25.23 start: 12.5" start, 11.75" end.
Round 2: 11.75" start, 11.5" Even though my weight is higher, my batwings are getting smaller?
I have a mole, so it is easy to measure in exactly the same place.
Round 3: 11.5" - Wow, a whole inch off of my upper arm since beginning this!!
Round 4: 11.0" start 11.5- So pleased!!
Round 5: September 18 - October 08. 11.25 started with 11.0 but completely okay with that, maybe building some muscle there.
Round 6: October 09 - 29 -
Going to keep this up. 4-5 minutes is easy to fit into a schedule. Positive new habit.
Day 01 - Oct 09 – 4:45 of the 3. Made up this session on the morning of the 10th. Obviously went pretty quickly since I had to get to work.
Day 02 - Oct 10 – 9:46 of the 3.
Day 03 - Oct 11 – 7:10 of the 3
Day 04 - Oct 12 – 7:47 of the 3

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ Sept 23, 2023 thru Dec 31, 2023
Hope its OK to join in part way through! This looks like the motivation and accountability place that I need. One of my biggest hurdles is to stay engaged and motivated. My goals are to lose more weight and work on strengthening and improving mobility and stamina. So helpful to see everyone else smashing their goals
I am Pam. I am 58 years old. I have used MFP before with some success. I took WAY too long of a break and need to get back to it. I recently injured my knee and can really feel the extra weight and poor support in that joint now. I have a job that requires 24hr shifts at work so, to say the least, my eating patterns are all over the place. Definitely does not help the cravings. Thanks for sharing all you guys do!

A week late to this new challenge, after falling off the wagon for a while. But I’m so glad to be back. Celebrated my 60th on 09/23 and I’m feeling good. Now to get back into the habit of weighing and logging in daily. I believe this is my 4th 100-day challenge. Good luck everyone!
Day 10-10/02-142.8 – New day, new start! Looking forward to being productive with work and to get some exercise in today. Need to work on my eating habits.
Day 11-10/03-142.5 – No workout yesterday but eating was pretty much on point. Probably not going to exercise today as well since I’m meeting friends for Happy Hour. I’ll try my best not to go overboard with alcohol and carbs (“don’t slash the other tires” LOL). One of the friends I’m meeting has returned to Maui for a funeral for family members who perished in the recent wildfire here. Lots of healing still to be done.
Day 12-10/04-141.7 – Wasn’t planning on working out yesterday, but my anxiety was high for most of the day, so I decided to jump on the Peloton to try to relieve it. Good call. Also, great get together with friends in the early evening and the ‘everything in moderation’ attitude performed well: just one glass of wine and an appetizer!
Day 13-10/05-DNW – Had a great start to the day yesterday, even got in a work out in the afternoon, until uncontrollable late night snacking got me. So, I didn’t want to feel even more disgusted by seeing the number on the scale this morning. On another note, it’s a beautiful day outside!
Day 14-10/06-143.4 – Not happy about this gain, but not surprised. This is the result of the copious amounts of sugar 2 & 3 days ago. [sigh]. Did well yesterday and if I keep it up, I should be happy with progress by Sunday.
WEEK 2 GAIN: +0.6
Accumulated Gain: +0.6
Day 15-10/07-143.5 – Nothing exciting to report. Just trudging along.
Day 16-10/08-DNW
Day 17-10/09-144.3 – Have to work harder. I don’t remember it being this hard.
Day 18-10/10-144.4 – Had a productive day yesterday, but no workout. Did not go off the rails with “bad” foods. I’m too close to 145 lbs. Need to reel it in.
Day 19-10/11-144.3 – Yesterday’s workout: 50 min spin class. But snacking gets me everytime.
Day 20-10/12-143.8 – Yesterday’s workout: 20-min full body kettlebells, 5-min core and 20-min spin class. I hope I worked off the calories & carbs from my hamburger & fries from McDonald’s. No chips all day… yay me!
Day 21-10/13-xxxxx-142.7 – Happy with this scale read. Low carb day yesterday and no “bad” snacking. Took a break from working out. My body was hurting from the kettlebell workout the day before. Harder to recover the older I get.

Day 22-10/14: 161.04 -
I want to lose at least 4.9 kg in this round. Bolded numbers means a new low.
Day 1 86.7 kg 2x45 min walks
Day 2 86.0 45 min walk
Day 3 85.9 2x45 min walks
--- Tracking my intake from now on, aiming for 6,000 kJ, posting total overeating above that number
Day 4 85.9 45 minute walk
Day 5 86.5 45 minute walk, 946 kJ under eating
--- Doing a little experiment, how many days in a row can I burn more energy than I eat? Starting day 7
Day 6 86.0 I had a bit of a sugar fest to celebrate the start of a new, 20 week online course. I don't know with accuracy what the energy value of it is, I'm going to reset the over eating counter to zero and start again
Day 7 86.2 5925 KJ, 2x45 min walks, losing 82 grams a day according to spreadsheet
Day 8 86.0 5929 kJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 9 85.5 5896KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 10 85.0 2x45 min walk, lowest weight in 47 days. My walking is definitely working because I wasn't walking 47 days ago. So I had 3 "excellent" days and 3 days in a row of eating less than I burned. That's not a particularly big achievement, I scanned back some old records and I saw 17 days in a row where I ate less than I burned. So I'm going to aim to beat that record, starting October 13. Mark your calendars. Threewins will attempt a lifetime record.
Day 11 85.4 911 KJ total overeating, 2x45 min walks
Day 12 85.5 320 KJ total under eating, 2x45 min walks
Day 13 84.4, lowest weight in 76 days, 6160 KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 14 84.7, 5855 KJ average intake, 2x45 min walks
Day 15 83.9, lowest weight in 102 days, 5909 KJ average, 2x45 min walks. I weighed 87.0 kg on the 22nd September, now with my most recent loss I'm losing since then 157 grams a day which means I've gotten to 1 kg a week, something which has rarely happened in my life, maybe half a dozen times, always briefly. I know that it's not just caused by fat loss but it's nice to see anyway.
Day 16 So. They say ignorance is bliss so I've led a very blissful life in the last 2 years, 10 months, 8 days. I really don't know what I was doing, living in a nice place, no job which I needed to go to and stress me out. I took the risk of looking back at my spreadsheet since my heaviest ever on 1st January 2021 and seeing how my weight loss progress was going. That graph has a lot of bumps. Then I removed all the rebounds and looked at the graph again. 1,010 days to lose 11.5 kg vs 144 days to lose 11.8 kg. So I've wasted 2 years, 4 months, and I'm still not back at the weight I was 5 months ago.
I've been tracking my intake during that period and it makes sense. There are some large spikes on that particular graph, it's not a graph you'd be proud of.
I'm not the sort to dwell on past mistakes so I'll just have a plan. My plan is to not have any rebounds. I want my 10 day average graph to head downwards, just like it did on my second 144 day graph. So I'll be posting my 10 day average and looking out for any gains. Small gains caused by water fluctuations are fine. Let's see how I go.
84.1, 85.1 10 day average, 5951 KJ average, 2x45 min walks
Day 17 83.9, 84.8 10 day average, 350 days until goal weight, 6347 KJ average food, 2x45 min walk, 3.4 km walk
Day 18, 84.5, 84.7 10 day average, 355 days until goal weight, 6419 KJ average food, 2x45 min walks, 3.0 km walk
Day 19 84.4, 84.6 10 day average, 333 days until goal weight, 2x45 min walks
Day 20 84.5, 84.5 10 day average, 275 days until goal weight
--- Attempting my lifetime record of most number of days eating less than burning, I need more than 17 days
Day 21, 85.6, 84.6 10 day average, 265 days until goal weight, 45 min walk, 9167 kJ of food which probably means I've failed in my first day of attempting my lifetime record, especially since I didn't do a second exercise session
Day 22 85.7, 84.6 10 day average, 253 days until goal weight, 40, 45, 45 min walks, 8707 KJ of food, again I didn't eat less than I burn, fingers crossed for Sunday
Day 23 85.8, 84.7 10 day average, 251 days until goal weight6 -
Back again! I went from 79 kg to 71.5 kg in the last Challenge. Planning to get down to 67 kg (147.4lb) in the next 100 days.
Day 01-09/23-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. Received news this morning that a family member in Ireland has had a heart attack. It was partly her fault because she heard of my weight loss success and tried to go on a crazy sort of almost religious diet with nothing but raw fruit and walking 18,000 steps a day. At 62 years old! Luckily she is recovering well, but it makes me more careful about sticking to a slow, sustainable rate. The tortoise always beats the hare.
Day 02-09/24-xxxxx- 72 kg. Unsure of my BMI because I used to be 5' 10" (177.8 cm) but now I've lost, maybe an inch? Or Two? I'll tentatively say 175 cm. So 23.5 BMI. PRetty good, but I'd like to, ideally, 22. But will settle for 22.5.
Day 03-09/25-xxxxx- 72 kg. Found a whole $NZ3.00 (USD1.80) out walking today. Wish it was like that everyday!
Day 04-09/26-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. Went to an Art Exhibition opening and demolished a plate of sandwiches. I am not safe in the presence of bread.
Day 05-09/27-xxxxx- 72.1 kg. Whatever has happened! Could it be something I ate last night?
Day 06-09/28-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. I think the scale has a sense of humor and is playing pranks on me.
Day 07-09/29-xxxxx- 71.9 kg
WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.4 kg gain. Not off to the best of starts. Trying to keep the total calories in at less than 1600 regardless of amount lost through exercise.
Accumulated Loss or Gain:
Day 08-09/30-xxxxx- 72 kg. Normally I drink my coffee black, but today I had my annual treat of pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks. (the smallest size)
Day 09-10/01-xxxxx- 71.5 kg. ....number on the bathroom scale, whither will you wander? Upstairs, downstairs, in the refrigerator....
Day 10-10/02-xxxxx- 71.7 kg.
Day 11-10/03-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. Hopefully have recovered from the mindless snacking of the last 10 days and back to better habits ..... but now I am stress shopping online a lot .... telling myself that it is all for Christmas gifts....
Day 12-10/04-xxxxx- 71.2 kg.
Day 13-10/05-xxxxx- 71.2 kg. Second day in a row off eating less than I burned ..... hopefully I can go the next 5 days and see some results. Picking up the exercise to 90 mins walk a day.
Day 14-10/06-xxxxx- 71.1 kg. Ate some cheese I hadn't planned for, walked for an extra 60 mins to burn it off. Tired but in a positive mood.
WEEK 2 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.8 kg - more than anticipated - seems like I was eating a lot and not losing much, but I started Week 2 heavier than at the start of Week 1.
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 0.4 kg. Hopefully I can lose this much every week in order to meet my goal of 67 kg.
Day 15-10/07-xxxxx- 71 kg Ate over my limit. Start again and try for a week.
Day 16-10/08-xxxxx- 71.3 kg. Ate under my limit, but then had a can of gin and soda....(a rare event for me)
Day 17-10/09-xxxxx- 72 kg. Looking in my closet I found a size 4XL top I haven't worn since I was 100 kg (220 lb), back in 2021. I dropped it off at the Salvation Army after making a solemn vow never to get that heavy again.
Day 18-10/10-xxxxx- 71 kg. Started off with avo on toast for breakfast, but later in the morning felt very unwell. Stayed in bed for the rest of the day with no food, just water/
Day 19-10/11-xxxxx- 70.5 kg. Was able to get up and go out today. Still not much of an appetite, and coffee taste horrible, but at least I'm losing weight.
Day 20-10/12-xxxxx- 70 kg Waist 31.5 ins, Hips 40.5 ins.- not the best way to reach the stretch goal I set at the start of the year, but I'll take it. Feeling much better today, still ate some extra protein and went easy on the fiber. At the start of the year I made myself a disincentive promise that if I didn't lose the weight I would send a $240 donation to a Politician I Very Much Hope Is Not Reelected. If I can keep at the current weight until the end of the year Mister Obnoxious will get nothing from me!
Day 21-10/13-xxxxx- 70 kg. Exercising a little less, for maintenance, but also eating a little less - only half a lemon cupcake as a treat today, everything else was healthy. My focus now is less on continuing to lose and more on keeping the weight steady through the Holiday Season to the end of the year - which will be on us sooner than we expect! I do still have my rescued can of beer in the fridge, but will wait a few more days - alcohol once a week is enough.
WEEK 3 LOSS OR GAIN: 1 kg.
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 1.5 kg - that's a little over one pound a week, just as MFP predicted.
Day 22-10/14-xxxxx- 70.3 kg. I took some of the money I have found on the ground during my daily walks and bought a bag of colorful cotton yarn at the Sally Army. Intending to knit myself a pretty summer shawl. Then I met up with a friend for lunch and we shared a chicken salad wrap, which I thought would be healthy, but it turned out to have a bucketload of super sweet mayo.
Day 23-10/15-xxxxx- 70.1 kg. Today was very wet so I stayed in and knitted. Changed my mind about the shawl and started to knit a lacy summer top - in size M!!! ..... well, a pretty loose size M, but M nonetheless. I did make pizza for dinner, but it had a sprouted seed base, not too much cheese and loads of veggies.

@dawnbgethealthy - I'm not having any issues on my computer using the website version. I'm not on my phone much for community posts ... just logging food.
Yes, I use my computer too.
It seems fine today, so just a glitch I guess : - )
Haha, it was Friday the 13th yesterday.
I expect that your temps are a little more bearable around this time of year to get out and play in your garden : - )
@dawnbgethealthy - Yes we are having beautiful weather!!! I can actually sit outside and soak up the sun 4 -
@pammyNNP - Welcome! Glad that you are back from a break ... I agree those can be killers. Hence why I'm again trying to lose the same pounds I lost before.

240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's
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)
Tracking: W=walk miles, SF=strong & fit strength class 1 hr, B=bike minutes, S=swim laps, A=water/agua ounces, J=tracked/journaled all my food cal/net carbs, V=vitamin, AF=alcohol Free
Tracking: W=walk miles, SF=strong & fit strength class 1 hr, B=bike minutes, S=swim laps, A=water/agua ounces, J=tracked/journaled all my food cal/net carbs, V=vitamin, AF=alcohol FreeDay 01: 09/23 - 231.7 / 231.8
Day 02: 09/24 - 232.4 / 231.8 - V, W .5 mile
Day 03: 09/25 - 231.1 / 231.7 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, S&F form video. A 80oz, J V AF. Getting back into better habits!
Day 04: 09/26 - 230.2 / 231.4 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, A 80 oz, J V AF.
Day 05: 09/27 - 229.3 / 230.7 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, A 80 oz, J V AF. I got real snacky in the afternoon diving into kettle chips DH eats for lunch. Measured and tracked and moved on. But I can’t do that everyday! Still stayed under my personal targets of 1400 calories and less than 100 net carbs which is working until it doesn't. I know I lost 40+ lbs quickly on Keto in 2020-2021 targeting less than 20 and then 20-50 net carbs but I just don't think that is sustainable in the long run for me ... given that I gained almost all of it back!
Day 06: 09/28 - 229.0 / 230.1 - W 1.6 mile (no car so walked to and from ESL class I volunteer teach), A 64 oz, J V AF. Still in the green but selected 2 Oreo Thin cookies for an afternoon snack then grabbed a banana so I wouldn’t eat more! These actions took me over my 100 net carb target.
Day 07: 09/29 - 227.6 / 229.2 - No exercise skipped my S&F class to drive into town to pick up my granddaughter and visit my other one at daycare. A 64 oz, JV. Today I’m chasing my granddaughter as I babysit. Oh and @dawnbgetheathy DH is cooking 2 really large racks of ribs since my son & his family are joining us for dinner. Wishing you could join us! Trying to clean out the freezer and those take up a lot of space!
Week 1 goal weight: < 230
Week 1 actual weight: 227.6
1st Week Weight Loss: 4.4
Accumulated weight loss: 4.4
Challenge weight to go: 8.6
First week back on a real diet and not just playing around / pretending. Journaling kept my calories and net carbs in check for a first time since May earlier this year! Now the challenge will be to keep it up!
Day 08: 09/30 - 228.4 / 228.8 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, A 80 oz, J V. Bump up in weight expected with ribs and wine. Today I’m planning to weed weed weed! And I really want to get out my fall decorations … usually they are out by the first of Sept but with the heat and vacation I missed my normal routines. Also I’m going to get on the bike at some point.
Day 09: 10/01 - 228.1 / 228.3 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, A 80 oz, J V. We are getting together with all my kids to celebrate my oldest son’s birthday. DIL is making jambalaya and carrot cake for lunch. My plan is to exercise later today to keep things in check … I’m not passing on the food but portion control will be key! UPDATE: I exercised BEFORE going to the bday party. BUT had pizza for dinner so very much in the red.
Day 10: 10/02 - 228.6 / 228.3 - Strength Training 1 hr, A 80 oz, J V AF. Bump up on the scale is totally expected given the carb loaded food I had yesterday. I skipped all snacks yesterday but I was fully in the red. Today I stayed in the green!
Day 11: 10/03 - 229.0 / 228.3 - WI at 3am! Yikes I was up too early. No exercise. A 64 oz J V … definitely not AF plus ribs for dinner.
Day 12: 10/04 - 229.2 / 228.5 - Biked 20 min, 5 min strength w/ 5 lb weights, A 80 oz, J V AF. Slipped and grabbed a Snickers at the store today after art class then continued to eat lots of carbs all day. Grocery shopped yesterday for my menu plan for the next week. Lots of fresh fruits and veggies!
Day 13: 10/05 - 228.2 / 228.3 - This was a surprise given yesterday’s eating pattern. No exercise. A 64 oz J V. 1000 calories over planned because I decided to have a shake at lunch! Poor decision. I should never order when I’m tired and hungry and it’s raining.
Day 14: 10/06 - 229.3 / 228.5 - Walked ~3 miles, A 64 oz. We are babysitting our granddaughter this weekend Friday lunch through Sunday. Decided before she arrives that I will get out and exercise.
Week 2 goal weight: <227
Week 2 actual weight: 229.3
2nd Week Weight GAIN: 1.7
Accumulated weight loss: 2.7
Challenge weight to go: 10.3
Good days and bad days. I need to be more careful about the slide giving into instant satisfaction like milk shakes and Snickers. What’s great is that I’m clearly under 230 and didn’t bounce back up over it. Now to drive getting below 227 and make it stick!
Day 15: 0/07 - 229.1 / 228.6 - Walked ~1.5 miles with stroller, A 64 oz. Up early with granddaughter and forgot to weigh until after a glass of water and coffee. Oh well it is what it is. Still stepped on the scale. Lots of food with family to watch afternoon LSU football game.
Day 16: 10/08 - 229.3 / 228.8 - Walked 1+ miles with stroller.
Day 17: 10/09 - 228.7 /228.7 - Strength Training 1 hr. AF
Day 18: 10/10 - 229.5 / 228.9 - Need to start all my better habits AGAIN as I skipped out over the weekend. No exercise. Clogged pipe line causing kitchen & laundry room sink to overflow and flood that area of the house when the washing machine was running. Plumber. Home alone after dinner as DH had a club meeting. Nice evening … worked a Halloween puzzle my daughter gave me. AF.
Day 19: 10/11 - 229.3 / 229.0 - After yesterday’s disaster now is the time for better habits AGAIN since yesterday was a mental wreck. Well I totally forgot my new art class Wed morning after getting waved off on babysitting. Shopped for art supplies and worked the puzzle. DH had the mixer and pumpkin out when I got home because I had promised to make cookies.
Day 20: 0/12 - 299.9 / 229.3 - Headed in the wrong direction! Darn pumpkin cookies. Nothing for the rest of the week during the day so I plan to paint … brush up on my new art skills and finish the puzzle. My knees have been killing me this week and I think I know why. Monday I did the Strong & Fit strength class for an hour. Includes 6 min of squats and 6 min of lunges. I think that did in my knees because this time I really did them instead of slightly like the week before. I’ve avoided walking and biking because they just ache. Today I get back on the bike to loosen up those muscles and joints.
Day 21: 10/13 - 231 / 229.3 - Yesterday I biked and gardened (cut back roses and weeded) yet high calories at my sister’s house for bunco plus red beans & rice for lunch just pushed me over on the scale. Where is my determination?
Week 3 goal weight: <227 until I hit it!
Week 3 actual weight: 231
3rd Week Weight GAIN: 1.7
Accumulated weight loss: 1
Challenge weight to go: 12
Two weeks in a row gaining 1.7 pounds puts me back where I started above 230. YIKES!
Day 22: 10/14 - 229.8 / 229.6 - No exercise.
Day 23: 0/15 - 228.9 / 229.4 - What I need to remember is that in 2024 my activities include being active, walking, hiking, swimming! In order to do that I’ll need to be slimmer and not have knee problems. I imagine if I can take some of the weight off my knees then I would be more mobile. Like they say use it or lose it! Mobility is key to the aging.

Day 22-10/14-176.8/177.5 – I donated platelets today so took a break from hard control – no exercise, wasn’t as strict with calories. I know I’ll see it on the scale tomorrow.
Day 23-10/15-177.4/177.5 – Even though yesterday was a “free day” I still was controlled – didn’t eat if I wasn’t hungry, didn’t make the worst choices possible. It was a moderate day, which would have been nice to have been rewarded with neutrality on the scale lol. Alas, not to be.

Glad that you are joining us : - )
I did the same thing, lost weight on MFP, then in my case thought that I didn't need to track anymore (because I knew amounts?) and gained 50 pounds back.
I plan to track for life now, because it is way too hard to lose.
24 hours shifts?!? Yikes. That must mess with your body and head in so many ways. And yes, make it difficult on the food choices so that you are feeding yourself well nutritionally to sustain that type of schedule!4 -
@Lilylady3k
Good point, extra weight is hard on our joints.
My doc wants me to lose weight.
It is so dang hard to lose though!
131 is the magic number to take me out of the overweight category according to the newest BMI stuff from Oxford University.
https://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/trefethen/bmi.html
I was there at that weight. Sucks that I am having such trouble getting back there, but I will keep trying.
My ankle and opposite knee bother me too much. I'm not sure if it is from getting older or having gained back 15 pounds.
The other thing I think is that when we walk outside it doesn't hurt as much as walking inside on concrete. I don't really have a choice about that since I work indoors, walking non-stop on concrete.
I feel like walking every day outdoors while on holiday and pushing a lawnmower around my yard on a day off didn't bother my ankle and knee.
Today I will try to do more of my little dance workouts on my mini tramp instead, and aim to get out to a trail of some sort.4 -
Thank you for keeping us going @deepwoodslady !!
Hi everyone.
I am Dawn. 5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 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
Week 1 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 1 actual weight - 142.0 - Started the week at 143.2
Week 2 Goal: 139.8 - this will be my goal each week until I hit it
Week 2 actual weight - 141.6 - Started the week at 142.2 - First week of eating 1/2 a banana each day
Day 22-10/14 - 142.6 - Got 2/3 of the grass cut. The front yard will require me raking it first since that is where my big maple tree is.
Day 23-10/15 - 143.2 - I ate quite a bit yesterday. Some days I am just hungrier than others, and some days I am simply more indulgent. So far today, not hungry like I was yesterday. I will prep a delicious and nutritious meal for later. I am thinking that I want to continue on with my "Thanksgiving" meals like I had all of last week. I will pull a couple of carrots and beets today out of the garden to add to that meal.

Week 4 actual weight
Mini 21 day Challenge
Legs straight up (draining) with arm weights exercises, 4-6-ish minutes.
Round 1, June 25.23 start: 12.5" start, 11.75" end.
Round 2: 11.75" start, 11.5" Even though my weight is higher, my batwings are getting smaller?
I have a mole, so it is easy to measure in exactly the same place.
Round 3: 11.5" - Wow, a whole inch off of my upper arm since beginning this!!
Round 4: 11.0" start 11.5- So pleased!!
Round 5: September 18 - October 08. 11.25 started with 11.0 but completely okay with that, maybe building some muscle there.
Round 6: October 09 - 29 -
Going to keep this up. 4-5 minutes is easy to fit into a schedule. Positive new habit.

Goal This Round: 176.0 (12 lbs)
Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 188.0
Challenge Ending Weight: xxxxx
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
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.

Day 22-10/14-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) My DGS got me up very early. He was already full of energy and hungry for his pumpkin pancakes so I forgot to weigh before drinking my coffee. Yesterday I was over on calories and carbs due to foodie DD bringing fall treats so I’m sure there has been no progress. I did jump on the exercise bike late last night for 32 minutes even though it was a very busy evening and it was very late when I did it. I also canceled all my own planned snacks because of it. Today is scheduled to be a normal calorie & carb day on zig-zag so while there should not be a dramatic drop, especially after the goodies yesterday, I’m hoping it will keep any collateral damage at bay. I was polite yesterday but today I will not be eating any of her kind, thoughtful, generous junk.
Day 23-10/15-187.0-(Trend weight 186.6) One perfect day with just a couple of evening gifted goodies can do so much more damage that I ever imaged. I’m sure the glycogen has refilled in my liver and I am experiencing that water increase in my body, among other things. Yesterday was picture perfect. I just need to remember that the body has it’s processes and this too shall pass. I am also still having some TMI issues that I’m sure is not helping. It will all work itself out. I just have to stay diligent and committed. I really like that I am managing to eat much healthier than any other time in my life. Baby steps!

Strength Training Mini Challenge Round 6:
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. I will try to add in some aerobic exercise like walking or dancing or the exercise bike AT LEAST 5 days a week. This is not my dream, it is my pledge to myself.
Day 01 - Oct 09 – 6 min with 5 lb weights, 70 minutes walking inside the school, 15 min of regular floor exercises, Iso knee x 3.
Day 02 - Oct 10 – 5 min with 2 lb weights, 15 minutes of general floor exercises. Iso knee x 1. I didn’t do much in the form of exercise yesterday. I was so sore and I think it was from the walking on the hard floors of the school the day before. I did do about 15 minutes of floor exercising and stretching after I closed out my MFP last night to try and loosen things up. It feels slightly better today. I lowered my weights down to accommodate sore shoulders.
Day 03 - Oct 11 – 5 min with loop arm bands, 33 min on exercise bike including HIIT, 16 min of aerobic dancing, 15 min of general floor exercises, Iso knee therapy x 3.
Day 04 - Oct 12 – 5 min with 5 lb weights, 43 min on exercise bike, 15 min of general floor exercises. Iso knee therapy x 1.

A week late to this new challenge, after falling off the wagon for a while. But I’m so glad to be back. Celebrated my 60th on 09/23 and I’m feeling good. Now to get back into the habit of weighing and logging in daily. I believe this is my 4th 100-day challenge. Good luck everyone!
Day 10-10/02-142.8 – New day, new start! Looking forward to being productive with work and to get some exercise in today. Need to work on my eating habits.
Day 11-10/03-142.5 – No workout yesterday but eating was pretty much on point. Probably not going to exercise today as well since I’m meeting friends for Happy Hour. I’ll try my best not to go overboard with alcohol and carbs (“don’t slash the other tires” LOL). One of the friends I’m meeting has returned to Maui for a funeral for family members who perished in the recent wildfire here. Lots of healing still to be done.
Day 12-10/04-141.7 – Wasn’t planning on working out yesterday, but my anxiety was high for most of the day, so I decided to jump on the Peloton to try to relieve it. Good call. Also, great get together with friends in the early evening and the ‘everything in moderation’ attitude performed well: just one glass of wine and an appetizer!
Day 13-10/05-DNW – Had a great start to the day yesterday, even got in a work out in the afternoon, until uncontrollable late night snacking got me. So, I didn’t want to feel even more disgusted by seeing the number on the scale this morning. On another note, it’s a beautiful day outside!
Day 14-10/06-143.4 – Not happy about this gain, but not surprised. This is the result of the copious amounts of sugar 2 & 3 days ago. [sigh]. Did well yesterday and if I keep it up, I should be happy with progress by Sunday.
WEEK 2 GAIN: +0.6
Accumulated Gain: +0.6
Day 15-10/07-143.5 – Nothing exciting to report. Just trudging along.
Day 16-10/08-DNW
Day 17-10/09-144.3 – Have to work harder. I don’t remember it being this hard.
Day 18-10/10-144.4 – Had a productive day yesterday, but no workout. Did not go off the rails with “bad” foods. I’m too close to 145 lbs. Need to reel it in.
Day 19-10/11-144.3 – Yesterday’s workout: 50 min spin class. But snacking gets me everytime.
Day 20-10/12-143.8 – Yesterday’s workout: 20-min full body kettlebells, 5-min core and 20-min spin class. I hope I worked off the calories & carbs from my hamburger & fries from McDonald’s. No chips all day… yay me!
Day 21-10/13-xxxxx-142.7 – Happy with this scale read. Low carb day yesterday and no “bad” snacking. Took a break from working out. My body was hurting from the kettlebell workout the day before. Harder to recover the older I get.
