Week 3 done, gang! I've been trying to cut down on the starchy carbs (mostly bagels and potatoes in their various formats) and I think it's making a difference so I'm going to continue with this experiment into next week. I haven't really missed them either, and I have been substituting with more veg and salad stuff so that's a plus too!

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ January 1st thru April 9th, 2024
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!

Thoughts:
While other challenges may show bigger losses (or gains), it really depends on what date you are looking at with me because I do go up & down quite a lot, especially with my frequent required day trips. However, from Jan 1st through Dec 31st, I lost 16.0 pounds in the full year of 2023. That is what I have lost and KEPT OFF. While I am very proud of that, I know that the road ahead is long and will be a difficult one since I still have so far to go and so many health related obstacles in my way. Each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I can make, no matter how big or small. I am also grateful for all the support from all of you that I get on a daily basis. Working on my health has become my #1 priority. My main goals are to maintain my remission by staying cancer free and to keep my diabetes in control. Losing weight is key to both goals.

Day 19-01/19-DNW-(Trend weight DNW)
Day 20-01/20-183.6-(Trend weight 182.3) Very early weigh-in for me. I travel today about 4 hours round trip. I’m taking my DGS to see the movie Migration. I’ll do some grocery shopping while in the bigger city too since they have the big box stores. It will be very cold though as it is -2 F today. I expect a bump up on the scale tomorrow but nothing I can’t live down and overcome. Lots of sitting and a late lunch will be at a restaurant.
Day 21-01/21-184.4-(Trend weight 182.5) I took a wrong turn at Christmas and have been on the wrong road ever since. It’s time to swallow my pride, pull out my map and get back on the right path. Yesterday was a Chinese buffet for lunch and the children’s movie Migration (very fun movie) at the Cinema. I know I am retaining water today so I hope for a drop tomorrow, but it’s going to take more than some fluid loss to right this wrong. If you’ve been around awhile then you know I’m either full-steam-ahead on track or I’m lollygagging somewhere off the beaten path. There doesn’t seem to be an in-between for me. Time to get back on track. No more shenanigans!

I’m Teri
Age 60, 5’4”
Challenge Starting Weight: 144.3 lbs
Challenge Goal Weight: 138lbsMission for this challenge: Avoid refined sugar and keep meals low carb, IF 16:8, exercise at least 4 times per week, drink lots of water, get enough sleep, keep up with vitamin supplements. Simple right?
Day 01-01/01 - DNW
Day 02-01/02 - 145.3 All sugar & water retention in this gain as a result of a fabulous Holiday season with friends and family, but I’m not depressed about it. I know what I have to do. Now the work begins.
Day 03-01/03 - 144.7 Food intake wasn’t the best yesterday, but it was better than all of last week.
My daughter returns to college today (sad), and so I’ll begin my exercise routine later today.
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [ ] enough water [ ] exercise
Day 04-01/04 - 144.4 Stayed away from the leftover Christmas goodies and though I did not go
overboard on carbs, I could have done better. Today is the day I get on the exercise wagon. [I think I said
that yesterday].
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [ ] exercise
Day 05-01/05 - 144.8 A little snacking last night but kept the 2 main meals low carb, so not sure
where this uptick is from. And it’s the weekend – yikes – I’ll try to keep the cocktails to a minimum.
Concert tomorrow night (Old Dominion).
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [√] exercise: 15 min core, 20 min upper body, 30 min cycling

Day 07-01/07 – 143.5 Home is finally getting back to normal (decorations put away, cleaning out the fridge, etc) after the Holiday festivities which all happen at my house. Though I love all the gatherings – from Thanksgiving thru New Year’s – there’s a lot of time and effort that goes into it. So last night I treated myself to some cocktails and live music (Old Dominion concert). Great start to the New Year!
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [√]

exercise:
Day 12-01/12 – 144.1 I fully expected a decrease on the scale this morning. Both eating and exercising were on point yesterday. And I do feel less bloated. I guess the jump in weight could be the result of my binge 2 days ago. And now it’s the weekend… oh lord.

@lolakinks
Good luck on your PHD dissertation, what a huge accomplishment!
Once you have logged everything that you could possibly eat, I think that you will find that it just takes a minute or two since it is already in your personal MFP.
I can understand that you have so much on your plate already with schooling.4 -
Hi
I am Dawn
5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 63 years old
Brand new year! Of course going to try to take off some greasy pounds.
Week 1 Goal: 143.2 (beginning of last 100)
Week 1 actual weight: 145.6 - Start weight of the week 145.6
Week 2 Goal: Didn't put one this week
Week 2 actual weight: 145.0 - started the week at 145.8
Day 15-01/15 - 145.4 - Rushing this morning. 2 jobs today and tomorrow
Day 16-01/16 - 145.4 - Didn't get to eat at (or before) my primary job (restaurant) because it was extremely busy. I always take lots of food there, portable stuff to eat throughout my shift: apple, banana, berries, rice cakes and nut butter, instant oatmeal etc. I just didn't get a chance. Ate a bit running home to change uniforms for my second job which is a non-stop job. I just have to get through the 2 jobs today, then only one job for 3 days then...I swapped some shifts so that I can have a mini getaway up to the Snowflake Festival/Bonspiel on the Lake at Invermere BC. Leaving straight from my primary job on Friday, I plan to have the car packed : - )
Day 17-01/17 - 144.6 - Ate more calories yesterday, a whole sandwich instead of my usual half in between jobs (which made me late by 2 minutes for my second job). 1450 calories yesterday and I lost weight. Another hmmm. I have lots to do before I go away. Finally snowing here, so I will be shoveling before work, my fave thing to do. It will be a happy day by getting it started that way, and not having to go to the second job.
Day 18-01/18 - 146.0 - Ouch. Really active day, shoveling a few times, workouts, walking (at work). Hate to see a jump up in weight of course.
Day 19-01/19 - 144.8 - I guess all of Wednesday's shoveling finally was refected on the scale this morning : - )
Late getting it together, but leaving shortly. I will take lots of photos. I won't be posting to the forum tomorrow. Have a great weekend everybody : - )
Day 20-01/20 - Missed, away without a scale or my laptop, I have put everything into the tracker now.
Day 21-01/21 - 144.8 - Great time away, off to work now. I will post some photos over the next few days : - ) Tired, don't feel like going to work lol

Day 100-04/09…..(Final Weigh- In)-7 -
65 years old. 5' 8". Started back in March 2023 at 85.5 kg, down from my all time highest of 100 kg (220 lb) Since participating in the last two 100 Day Challenges I'm down to 70 kg (154 lb). My aim this time is to drop another 5 kg and reach my ultimate goal weight of 65 kg (143 lb) - and keep it off for the next two years at least - hopefully forever!
Day 01-01/01-- 70 kg. Waist 30.5 ". Hips 40 "
Day 02-01/02-- 70.2 kg. This is like investing for retirement in the stock market. The advisor told me 30 years ago "Think long term. Don't chase high returns for quick gains - aim for slow and steady returns. Don't worry about daily fluctuations - as long as you stick with it the overall trend will be upward." Happy now I took his advice.
Found a jar of Kalamata olives in the pantry. Delicious! but I'm trying to limit myself to 4 daily. And yes! - I already got rid of the cheese and crackers I'd normally have with them.
Day 03-01/03-- 69.9 kg.
Day 04-01/04-- 69.6 kg. who would've thunk there could be marshmallows in the pantry and I am only eating two per day?! Sloooowly breaking the impulse to Eat All The Goodies Quick while they're around because Lord knows when there'll be any more - food insecurity issues from childhood.
Day 05-01/05-- 69.5 kg. Yay! Hit my 1st week goal already - just have to maintain for another two days rather than going off the rails and overcelebrating with treats to reward myself for losing the weight.....
Day 06-01/06-- 69.8 kg. I started knitting a lace scarf last month. It is very fine yarn on tiny needles, and I can only work on it in daylight. For the last 4 weeks I have been knitting 8 rows a day, and now my scarf is 22 inches long! I was feeling very proud of my progress and thinking it was a good lesson in perseverance with the weight loss plan as well. Well! so today I went to pick it up and somehow - pulled out the needle! Oh, ye knitters of the world, weep with me.....
Day 07-01/07-- 69 kg!!! Ummm.... this maybe TMI, but has anyone ever weighed themselves, then needed to go, then felt a strong desire to weigh themselves again - to see how much they dumped? ....not to boast - but, 0.5 kg? like, over a pound? Wow.
Week 1 Goal: 69.5 kg.
Week 1 actual weight: 69 kg.
Day 08-01/08--69.8 kg.... ???
Day 09-01/09-- 69.2 kg. Grandma used to say "What you gain on the swings you lose on the roundabouts." I'm guessing this was originally an allusion to the old style carnival where you paid to go on the rides, but maybe the barker was also running some kind of "chance to get your money back" gambling dodge as well? Anyway, it seems appropiate to eating for weight loss - cut out a slice of bread here and lose some, drink a can of soft drink "just this once" and gain it back.
Day 10-01/10-- DNW
Day 11-01/11-- 68.9 kg. I'm always hearing "eat protein for breakfast" and "breakfast like a king", but I just can't do that. A big plate of bacon and eggs always leaves me feeling uncomfortably full, weighed down and heavy. I just don't want to go for my usual morning walk, whereas a bowl of oatmeal, or a couple slices of wholewheat toast, with a piece of fruit, fills me until lunchtime, while still feeling light and active. I'm thinking there are many cultures where no, or just a light breakfast is the norm - it's really only the last 200 years in the Western world that 3 meals a day has become the norm. Even in the 60s, when I was a kid, snacking was not the usual thing - there weren't all the granola bars and cheesy chippy things we have today. I'm wondering how much of being told what we "should" eat, is actually real science based, and how much is funded by food manufacturers who want us to buy their products - how many orders for pizza delivery have been placed after seeing an ad? and deciding then "I'm too tired to cook".
Day 12-01/12-- 68.8 kg.
Day 13-01/13-- 69.2 kg. We are having a heat wave and it's exhausting to walk outside. Also I'm on medication which makes my skin more photo sensitive, so no to being lots in the sun. Fortunately, my appetite has decreased with the heat and I don't feel like cooking, so lots of raw fruit and veggies are on the menu.
Day 14-01/14-- 69 kg. Some cookies and chips came ..... into my possession. "Them that asks no question, isn't told a lie. Watch the wall, my darling, while the chocolate cake goes by." So I just ate the treats (about 800 calories) and nothing else.
Week 2 Goal: 69 kg.
Week 2 actual weight: 69 kg. So no net loss or gain this week, but still on target.
Day 15-01/15-- 68.8 kg. I want to knit a sweater for myself and I'm in a dither over what size to make. I know I'm 2 dress sizes smaller than I was, but I need my actual measurements. And then I need to work out how big the completed sweater will be and how much ease I want - I don't want "sweater girl" negative ease, but I don't want baggy oversize either, since I still have a little more weight to lose.
Day 16-01/16 69.8 kg. I found a big jar of mayo at the back of the fridge......I would have taken it to the food pantry, but it was already open....spent the evening gorging on mayo and cucumber sandwiches. No, I regret nothing.--
Day 17-01/17-- 70 kg .....Well, the rest of the mayo is gone - I hate to waste food, but, yes, it went down the sink - and the fiber in all the wholewheat bread has worked, so here's to a drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 18-01/18-- 69 kg. Hopefully back on track.
Day 19-01/19-- 70 kg. Is it the scale or is it me not being super careful over tracking? I am perflummoxedcombobulated! Maybe my body is telling me it's happy at current weight and doesn't want to go lower?
Day 20-01/20-- 70 kg.
Day 21-01/21-- 69 kg. Weather has been super hot and I think I may have eaten something that's gone a bit off - been feeling unwell for the last 24 hours.

I stopped logging my food, because I don’t make right choices anymore and tbh I’m a bit tired and stressed. I’m also not doing great on my PhD dissertation that affected me a lot. I have a deadline tomorrow for my draft for my monthly meeting with my supervisors. Maybe after this I will focus more on food. But still thinking about food all day and everyday is so frustrating. I don’t wanna think and calculate everything I eat. I hope at some point I start to do it without thinking about it. I know it’s a process and I’m trying to be patient but it’s so hard.
I’m sorry to hear that you’re feeling that way. 😔 Juggling work and school and life in general is super hard even without the added challenge of working on your health. I tried changing my diet so many times when I was in school but between the stress and the lack of sleep, I struggled so hard to stick with any kind of changes (and I was only doing an undergrad degree). You made it much further than I ever did by showing up here every day and checking in.
It’s okay if every day is not perfect. If it stresses you out to log constantly, it’s totally reasonable to take a break from it. It doesn’t mean you’re giving up, it just means you’re giving yourself space to breathe during a tough time. If you want you can always give yourself a few days away from having to log and then start over fresh. Personally, I love a new opportunity for a new beginning.
Good luck with your dissertation. 😊6 -

Even with all my toiling away at the gym, my little sister still wiped the floor with me in our Apple Watch fitness competition. 😭 It’s okay though, even when she wins I still love the motivation of a step/exercise challenge. Every time I see the little message pop up from her completing a workout, it reminds me to make sure I get up and move. Win or lose, the important thing is that it’s keeping me on track with my exercise goals.
I think I want to try and work out some mini non-scale goals I can work towards. There’s a lot of stuff I want to be able to do and It would be so nice to look back after this year and see what progress I’ve made when all is said and done. I’ll work on those and maybe share them here some time in the next week or so.

Looks like a much warmer week here this week, so I'm hoping to get out for a few more runs with the pooch - various storms permitting! Just had one blow through last night and another's on the way. But at least the forecasted temperatures don't have a minus sign in front of them anymore!
