I made Gumbo too, but mine is almost identical to my Jambalaya.
I would love to know what you put into yours.
@dawnbgethealthy - Here is the general idea
Turkey or Chicken Bone Gumbo
Serves: 8
Ingredients:
Turkey bones with meat (I used leftover chicken carcass that we had smoked previously.
Water
2/3 cup flour
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 quarts turkey broth (approximate)
Salt, black pepper, red pepper to taste Tabasco
2 bay leaves
1 tsp dried basil
1 TB dried parsley
About 1-2 cups chopped turkey
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into bite size pieces
Green onion tops, chopped
After the turkey has been carved, put bones in plenty of water and boil slowly about 1 1⁄2 hours or until remaining meat falls off the bone. Debone meat and save broth.
Make a roux of oil and flour. Add onions, garlic, bell pepper, and celery; cook until wilted. Add hot broth, salt and peppers, dash of Tabasco, bay leaves, basil and parsley. Cook for 1 hour. Add turkey and sausage and cook about 30 minutes or longer. Add green onions and cook for a few minutes longer. Serve with cooked rice and add a dash of gumbo file’ in each dish, if desired.3 -
Hi Folks! My name's Darin, and I'm a 45 year old woman from Holly Springs, North Carolina, USA. I've done a past 100 days challenge before and did really well with it (then regained the weight) so wanted to rejoin and try again.
Starting weight: 176.7Day 01-04/10—176.7Day 78—06/26—162.8
Day 02-04/11—176
Day 03-04/12—175.2
Day 04-04/13—174.6 Went to get a mani/pedi today which was lovely. Made a terrific seared salmon for dinner with baked potato and am stopping eating right now! No more eating. That’s it. or drinking. Let’s see how it goes.
Day 05-04/14—174.3 Succeeded with the no more eating last night. Also succeeded at moderation at an all-you-can eat buffet today (a ton of fresh vegetables and some fruit as well). Thus far the making good decisions is going well. But I think this downward trend is going to stop soon – I’ve lost all the water weight I’m going to lose. So now the work starts for real.
Day 06-04/15—173.9 Work kicked my butt today. Thankfully Josh and I walked this morning so don’t have to try to exercise right now. Just have to try not to stress-eat the entire fridge and pantry…
Day 07-04/16—174.2 Slight uptick but still met my goal weight so there’s that. Tough migraine day – had to take part of the day off from work today for bed rest. UGH.
Week 1 Goal: 174.7
Week 1 actual weight:174.2
Day 08-04/17—175.2 another partial day at work today due to migraine, and I’m retaining water. Blergh. Between the two not feeling great. At least got out and walked, and I meditated today. That’s something.
Day 09-04/18—175.2 migraine’s eased up and have stabilized with the weight. Now hopefully start to see a downward trend? Meditated again and was very moderate with lunch and breakfast. Will try to maintain for dinner.
Day 10-04/19—175.2
Day 11-04/20—174.7 I’m trying to be kind to myself with having felt so bad this week. I did have a ”woke myself up laughing” moment that I’m sure you’ll appreciate… I dreamt that I had gone into the office and was looking at a menu to pick out lunch. You know you’re counting calories IRL when your pick’s a clam chowder bread bowl with a bloomin’ onion topper!
Day 12-04/21—173.9 went to a cheeseburger party yesterday and did well with moderation (just one burger, limited sides, didn’t go bananas when in front of the potato chips although could have. Then came home and didn’t continue eating because I wasn’t hungry. Victory!
Day 13-04/22—174.4 another rough migraine day today.
Day 14-04/23—174.7 Just going to have to get myself together for next week.
Week 2 Goal: 173.7
Week 2 actual weight: 174.7
Day 15-04/24—176.1 Okay, so I blacked out and when I came to, I had eaten a full meal from Arby’s. in itself it wasn’t too bad calorie-wise, but sodium-wise it was devastating. Going out to play trivia at a local tavern and will get a moderate bowl – but still regretting last night.
Day 16-04/25—174.7 Better today.
Day 17-04/26—174.8
Day 18-04/27—174.1 Tasty dinner tonight – grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Mmm.
Day 19-04/28—174.1
Day 20-04/29—173.2
Day 21-04/30—174.2
Week 3 Goal: 171.7
Week 3 actual weight:174.2
Day 22-05/01—173.8 Last night went out to Texas Roadhouse and had a semi-decadent dinner (ate bread and a full-fat side Caesar salad, but had the grilled chicken as a main). Going to try to be better today.
Day 23-05/02—173.0
Day 24-05/03—172.6 So doing a better job of limiting calories at the end of the night. It’s really hard but it’s working thus far. Weekend ahead will be a real test though. Snacking is a problem. A real, real problem. Let’s see… What is my work? my work is not eating when i'm not hungry. Can that be a thing? a double negative? it's really my failing - i eat because things taste good. kind of the WORST reason to eat!
Day 25-05/04—171.8 At heart I’m a glutton, which is why I’m the size I am. I’ll be sitting around, and all of a sudden, I’ll think – “You know what’d be great right now? Buttered popcorn”. Or in the grocery store, passing the deli section, thinking “I know those wings taste pretty good; maybe grab a few for the drive home.” Even though wings are definitely not on my shopping list. It’s an ongoing struggle. Trying to find healthy things that also taste good – or stopping eating at a reasonable point – is a real challenge!
Day 26-05/05—172.5
Day 27-05/06—171.6
Day 28-05/07—172.4 Long day today and frustrating wobbling around this weight. Hopefully next week helps see me shake it off. Have plans to go out for Mexican food for dinner so going to try to rein it in and be controlled – no chips/salsa, moderate main, no alcohol. That’s the plan, let’s see how it goes! I’ll report back in tomorrow. 😊
Week 4 Goal: 172.7
Week 4 actual weight: 172.4
Day 29-05/08—172.4 Okay, mixed success at the Mexican restaurant yesterday. Did do some grazing on chips and salsa but had a fairly responsible main (grilled chicken/chipotle sauce, black beans). It was a ton of sodium, though, which is why I think the scale did what it did.
Day 30-05/09—172.4 And hit a plateau. Got to try to get off this level but it will be hard with a couple nice meals ahead with my mom and my mother-in-law this weekend. Have to stay focused and not just go bonkers on carbs!
Day 31-05/10—172.7 Damnit. When I wanted to move off the plateau I didn’t mean in this direction.
Day 32-05/11—172.5 Happy Mother’s Day! I’ll be happy if I come out of this weekend without having gained weight – with two big meals with the two families… it’s a lot of eating!
Day 33-05/12—172.3 Okay, no weight gain. I’ll take it.
Day 34-05/13—173.4 There’s the weight gain. Was waiting for that. I did eat quite a bit this weekend. And a lot of sodium for dinner last night. This week is going to be a rough one. Going to have to adjust all my goals…
Day 35-05/14—173.0
Week 5 Goal: 170.7
Week 5 actual weight: 173.0
Day 36-05/15—173.0
Day 37-05/16—171.0 yesterday had a horrible migraine. The nausea was so bad that I got super dehydrated and barely ate anything. So I think this dip is completely artificial. Still feel awful today. Bleh.
Day 38-05/17—170.9 slowly getting better from this migraine. Still very nauseated. Just trying to take it easy.
Day 39-05/18—170.7 had a lovely piece of salmon for dinner tonight. Mmm.
Day 40-05/19—170.7 Hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’ve been doing some work, so lots of computer time (just like during the week). While I’ve been super productive, it’s been a bit on the sedentary side. Josh and I have a vacation coming up – we’re going to Reno. We’re going to spend our days out in nature, hiking, and our nights at the casinos. I’m really looking forward to it. Is it weird to pack a scale to bring on vacation? I mean I’ll have space in my checked luggage. But maybe a few days of “DNW” won’t hurt me either. I’ll have to mull this one over. My goal is to not gain weight during the vacation. I’m under no illusions – I am not going to lose any. But not gaining would be nice, given the drinking and decadent food options there will (presumably) be.
Day 41-05/20—170.9 okay was a tad irresponsible last night with the pizza dinner but at least kept servings reasonable. So there was that? It’s also my birthday week so there’s going to be more eating out and lots of temptation. Wish me luck! And I'm definitely going to consider taking the scale on vacation. it may help to "keep me honest". :-)
Day 42-05/21—169.8
Week 6 Goal: 169.7
Week 6 actual weight:169.8
Day 43--05/22—170.0 Late night meeting for work today. Bleh.
Day 44—05/23—169.4 It’s my Birthday! I turned 45 today 😊 We’re going out for celebratory dinner… hopefully will hold it together.
Day 45—05/24—168.7 Had a lovely day yesterday! Now we’re getting ready for our vacation next week. Will be travelling to Reno for gambling and nature. 😊
Day 46—05/25—167.9 Start of my vacation! We don’t leave until Tuesday, so plenty of time to pack and prepare. And rest! It’s nice to have time to relax around the house.
Day 47—05/26—168.5
Day 48—05/27—167.5 Okay, I decided I’m not packing my scale for the vacation as that’d be more stressful than relaxing (plus my scale is very heavy). So I’ve got a few DNW days coming up. My plan is to enjoy myself moderately – not go crazy overboard but not be too restrictive either. We’re going to be getting some exercise while birding, and if we don’t get enough, we’ll continue our daily walks. Reno’s supposed to have some great parks and a nice riverfront. I’m really looking forward to the change in environment.
Day 49—05/28—167.4 Vacation day! Our flight leaves this evening.

Day 65—06/13—164.1 Hi folks! I hope you’re doing well. Having a hard time focusing on work these days… but at least it’s Friday tomorrow 😊
Day 66—06/14—165.0 Yikes! Not sure where that came from but going to keep with the plan.
Day 67--06/15—164.5 Happy Saturday, folks! So glad it’s the weekend for some rest and relaxation. We’re walking earlier and earlier these days due to the heat and humidity – it’s pretty darn hot here in North Carolina – but it’s nice to get the exercise out of the way earlier. Feels like we accomplished something! My doctor says I need to incorporate heavier exercise in, and I realized how much of a weakling I was when I tried to lift my 40 pound luggage, so I’m going to try to incorporate weights into the routine. I do have a free membership at a gym and all. Just have not made it in “lately”.
Day 68—06/16—163.7 Okay so it’s been an eating-based weekend. Had dinner with my parents yesterday, and going to have lunch with Josh’s parents today. I did pretty well at dinner but still ate more than I could have. Going to try to keep it under control for today…
Day 69—06/17—163.9 well, I’m glad I didn’t go up more than I did. All the food-related visits this weekend was sure to catch up to me. It’s going to be a very stressful week – I have so many important meetings for work – so I’m not looking forward to it at all.

Day 72—06/20—162.4 This work week is killing me. Just so much to do.
Day 73—06/21—162.8 Happy Friday y’all! About darn time. Have to do some work this weekend but still looking forward to the relaxation and relative rest. It’s supposed to be record-breaking levels of hot this weekend, so will have to go exercise early in the day.
Day 74—06/22—161.7 Okay so spent most of today working. And there’s more to do tomorrow. But at least I can relax a little for the rest of the day. Have to decide what to make for dinner tonight.
Day 75—06/23—162.6 had a “snacking” day yesterday which resulted in the gain. Have to try to control myself. I guess that’s what happens when you go grocery shopping while hungry. One another note, going to try picking up watercoloring again. May start with a “paint by numbers” kit to ease into the experience.
Day 76—06/24—162.6 lilylady3K OMG I am so inspired to pick up painting back up! I love the calendar with the thumbnails of your projects (that vase of daisies is on point!).

My goal is to be proud of my weight loss.
Day 01 80.1 kg, I did my planned exercise but I overate a little bit (I'm tracking my intake), since I started tracking I've eaten out 4 times and I need to compensate for those times. I read "most people who lose weight will regain it within 5 years", I checked my old numbers and I'm 3.5 kg under what I weighed 5 years ago. I guess I'm in that category. I talked to my partner about my weight loss (something I'm trying to do less often).
Day 02 80.0 kg, I ate below my ideal which should help me recover from previous overeating. I did my exercise sessions.
Day 03 80.1 kg my eating is on track for the last 3 days but I need to recover from the previous 9 which averaged too high. I exercised and that's on track too. Disappointed that the scale is headed in the wrong direction but...
Day 04 79.4 kg a big loss today. I did a lot of walking, I had sugary food for the first time in 8 days. I overate. Recently there have been 6 days when I overate a lot, I had sugary food 5 times. Coincidence?
Day 05 79.8 kg just a normal day where I am good, no overeating and exercising is as required
Day 06 80.4 kg I started two personal challenges, I had some sugary food because I won't be having sugary food for a while, so on Tuesday I gained...
Day 07 80.6 kg my eating and exercise went well, still need to recover from the overeating episodes, maybe in 2-3 days that will happen
Day 08 80.4 kg I had some treats and food I don't usually have, that's a negative, on the plus side I'm still exercising as I intended
Day 09 80.3 kg I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.Day 58 77.6 kg
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
Day 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
Day 18 80.4 kg whoa how did that happen? Maybe eating too much?
Day 19 79.7 kg ate too much, exercise average is okay
Day 20 79.9 kg
Day 21 80.0 kg I'm now starting the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 22 80.6 kg moderate gain but I'm not too concerned. 10.6 kg in 99 days? Probably.
Day 23 80.4 kg, things are looking good in terms of eating. 10.4 kg in 98 days? Probably.
Day 24 80.0 kg, I'm eating too much, 0.1 kg lost in 23 days. Anyway, 10.0 kg in 97 days? Probably.
Day 25 80.1 kg, eating seems to be under control right now, 30 day weight average has dropped for 3 days in a row (personal best 118 days), 10.1 kg in 96 days? Probably
Day 26 80.0 kg, eating under control 2 days, 10.0 kg in 95 days? Probably.
Day 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes
Day 29 79.5 kg, 9.5 kg in 92 days? Graph says yes
Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
Day 32 77.7 kg
Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
Day 34 77.2 kg
Day 35 77.4 kg
Day 36 77.6 kg
Day 37 77.5 kg
Day 38 77.2 kg
Day 39 77.5 kg
Day 40 77.8 kg
Day 41 77.8 kg
Day 42 77.5 kg

Day 46 78.5 kg
Day 47 78.3 kg
Day 48 77.7 kg
Day 49 78.1 kg
Day 50 77.8 kg
Day 51 77.5 kg
Day 52 76.9 kg
Day 53 77.5 kg
Day 54 77.5 kg
Day 55 78.5 kg
Day 56 77.9 kg
Day 57 77.7 kg So my recent health problem caused me to stop losing weight, I think it's time to start again. I've decided to give myself a challenge - lose 9.7 kg in 97 days. If it's working at the end maybe I'll add an extra 3 days and see if I can do 10 kg in 100 days. Unfortunately my health has not fully recovered so I may need a diagnosis. If that happens I'll stop the challenge. So starting today, I'm aiming to lose weight again. 9.7 kg in 97 days? I probably can do that.
Day 59 77.7 kg lose 9.7 kg in 95 days? Probably
Day 60 77.3 kg, lose 9.3 kg in 94 days? Probably, although I haven't started exercising, I want to have an exercise session this evening, first session in about 2-3 weeks
Day 61 77.0 kg
Day 62 76.6 kg so I haven't started exercising yet, so I'll do the weight loss challenge on the day when I start exercising. Whenever that is.

Decided to start with baby steps focusing on drinking more water this week along with getting back into better consistent exercise.
6/22: 232.9 / 231.9 - Waist 41”, Bike 25 min, 72oz water
Start tracking every single bite!
6/23: 231.9 / 231.6 - Walk .5 mile, Bike 25 min, garden 30 min, 64 oz water, Journaled
My weekly weigh in is on Mondays. Setting my goals for this week.
<230
Bike 3x 25 min
Strong & Fit 2x
Water 72+ oz daily
Journal every bite daily
Day: Weight Daily Weigh In / Trend Weight over 14 days - Comments report day of activity
6/24: 230.1 / 231.2 - Strong & Fit 1 hr, garden 15 min, 80 oz water, journaled
6/25: 230.2 /230.8 - Bike 25, 80 oz water, journaled. Received the lab reports from my physical and mammogram. All is clear. “Just” need to lose weight!
Broke through that 230 barrier that has haunted me in 2024. The last time I saw 229 on the scale was Dec 2023. My BETTER habits are coming back to me and I'm losing!
6/26: 229.1 / 230.3 - Bike 25, 72-80 oz water, journaled.
6/27: 229.2 / 230.0
Using Happy Scale to track my daily weigh in and view my trend. The 14 day moving average provides me a little better understanding that even when the number on the scale goes up that I’m moving in the right direction.
6/28: 292.2 - No exercise day, 80 oz water, journaled. My plan is to exercise 5 out of 7 days but then again if I had hopped on the bike or some other sort of activity I would have been in the green instead of red for 180 calories. Maybe days when I’m eating at a restaurant should be the day without exercise. I’ll have to monitor this in the future.
Pool Day with the grandkids. I have access to 10 different pools in my home owners assoc. We are taking the kids age 2 and 2.5 to the pool for under 8 yrs old in the morning and then the waterpark w/ slides and lazy river in the afternoon. Both sets of families are staying for a steak dinner.3 -
Week 12:
Monday, 174.8
Day 78—06/26—173.8 on plan.
Day 79—06/27—172.2 on plan until cracker snack attack at 12:30am. Also need to check out the points for almonds.
Day 80—06/28-- 174 no snacking today. Yard needs attention after a couple of days of rain. House also needs serious decluttering.

Hi!
I am Dawn. 63, 5'2"
I have been at this tracking for quite awhile, on this particular thread for 15 out of the 19 iterations of it.
I lost quite a bit (got to 130), but have been slowly gaining weight over the past 2 years despite my efforts.
Highest weight was 207. Began on this thread at 198 pounds
Week 1 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it.
Week 1 actual weight: 147.2 - started the week at 146.8
Week 2 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 2 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 148.0 - Hit my goal once
Week 3 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there. Hit it one time during week 2. Hit below it this week
Week 3 actual weight: 146.4
Week 4 Goal: 145.6. My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 4 actual weight: 147.6
Week 5 Goal: stopping smoking week as of May 7
Week 5 actual weight: 149.6
Week 6 Goal: Didn't set one
Week 6 actual weight: 151.0 - extremely early weigh in, so it might be inflated
Week 7 Goal: Just to enjoy my time at the all-inclusive Cancun
Week 7 actual weight: I was away, no scale. Started the week at 149.4
Week 8 Goal: Just to enjoy my time at the all-inclusive Cancun
Week 8 actual weight: Away with no scale, but started smoking upon arrival at the front entrance where everyone was smoking.
Week 9 Goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 9 actual weight: 149.2 Started the week at 151.0
Week 10 Goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 10 actual weight: 147.4 - Started the week at 149.0
Week 11 goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 11 actual weight: 147.2 - Started the week at 148.2
Day 78-06/25 - 147.2 - Really enjoyed my day off working in my garden in the sun. I only get 2 days out of the week to try to bring back my tan from Cancun. I guess that most people are in the same boat, working during the day during the tanning rays. So I had a thing happen last night that has happened to me a handful of times in the past. I made a nice healthy dinner, ate about half of it and then I had an overwhelming exhaustion while sitting on the love seat watching HGTV. I fell into a deep sleep for 2 hours from 7pm-9pm. Yes, I was out in the sun most of the day. The last time this happened I wasn't. Neither time did I eat very much. Food coma?
Day 79-06/26 - 147.2 - Always happy to not see a gain. I very seldom am the same weight 2 days in a row, I am usually all over the place.
Day 80-06/27 - 147.2 - Okay. Going through some old photos because my Google photos is getting full and I had to delete. Definitely look much better at 130, didn't have ankle/knee issues.

Thoughts:
Last round I had my normal goal of a 12 pound loss which is approximately 4 lbs per month. That comes to about 90 days leaving the other 10 open for special holidays and social occasions. In theory, it’s a good plan. In practice it is a Mountain to Crawl up. However, 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.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day 78-06/26-186.4-(Trend weight 186.1)
Day 79-06/27-186.6-(Trend weight 186.3) It was a very good day of meal planning and eating. But a very bad night of binge and I don’t just mean the TV. The madness has got to stop. My reno crew is not coming today and I’m already stir crazy. I may head out-of-town for any shopping I need and maybe do a little resale-ing. Lots of projects I need to do around here too though so we’ll see. I looked up what I weighed on this day last year. It feels like I’ve gotten nowhere but records show I am down nearly 12 pounds. That’s not much for an entire year of working so hard at logging, prep cooking and often (not often enough?) going without the foods I love. In fact, many people can lose that in just 4-6 weeks on MFP. But it’s nothing for an old gal like me to sneeze at either. Keep going Donna. Progress is just around the bend.
Day 80-06/28-186.4-(Trend weight 186.4) Jeepers Creepers it sure goes on faster than it comes off. As usual after a substantial gain I am “mixing things up” to get things moving. Changing type of exercise/rotating, completely adding in different foods I don’t use much, using the zig-zag plan where my calories and carbs are all mixed up to surprise my body, changing what times I eat, increasing water over coffee, Intermittent Fasting (some days) so my body never knows what to expect etc. etc. It will all pay off but it takes a bit of time. Today was no-weigh Friday but I weighed and forgot to take the once-per-week Fosamax for my Osteopenia that usually screws up my Friday schedule. I’ll take it tomorrow instead so I may not weigh tomorrow. Woke up today and mixed it up by doing a 15 minute aerobic video (something I don’t do often in the morning due to needing my coffee so badly). I fasted a little later than yesterday but ate a small side with my lunchtime sandwich will increase the calories for the day for sure so I will be zig-zagging to the higher end allowed. Is it science or is it a game? A little of both I think.

Hi Folks! My name's Darin, and I'm a 45 year old woman from Holly Springs, North Carolina, USA. I've done a past 100 days challenge before and did really well with it (then regained the weight) so wanted to rejoin and try again.
Starting weight: 176.7Day 01-04/10—176.7Day 78—06/26—162.8
Day 02-04/11—176
Day 03-04/12—175.2
Day 04-04/13—174.6 Went to get a mani/pedi today which was lovely. Made a terrific seared salmon for dinner with baked potato and am stopping eating right now! No more eating. That’s it. or drinking. Let’s see how it goes.
Day 05-04/14—174.3 Succeeded with the no more eating last night. Also succeeded at moderation at an all-you-can eat buffet today (a ton of fresh vegetables and some fruit as well). Thus far the making good decisions is going well. But I think this downward trend is going to stop soon – I’ve lost all the water weight I’m going to lose. So now the work starts for real.
Day 06-04/15—173.9 Work kicked my butt today. Thankfully Josh and I walked this morning so don’t have to try to exercise right now. Just have to try not to stress-eat the entire fridge and pantry…
Day 07-04/16—174.2 Slight uptick but still met my goal weight so there’s that. Tough migraine day – had to take part of the day off from work today for bed rest. UGH.
Week 1 Goal: 174.7
Week 1 actual weight:174.2
Day 08-04/17—175.2 another partial day at work today due to migraine, and I’m retaining water. Blergh. Between the two not feeling great. At least got out and walked, and I meditated today. That’s something.
Day 09-04/18—175.2 migraine’s eased up and have stabilized with the weight. Now hopefully start to see a downward trend? Meditated again and was very moderate with lunch and breakfast. Will try to maintain for dinner.
Day 10-04/19—175.2
Day 11-04/20—174.7 I’m trying to be kind to myself with having felt so bad this week. I did have a ”woke myself up laughing” moment that I’m sure you’ll appreciate… I dreamt that I had gone into the office and was looking at a menu to pick out lunch. You know you’re counting calories IRL when your pick’s a clam chowder bread bowl with a bloomin’ onion topper!
Day 12-04/21—173.9 went to a cheeseburger party yesterday and did well with moderation (just one burger, limited sides, didn’t go bananas when in front of the potato chips although could have. Then came home and didn’t continue eating because I wasn’t hungry. Victory!
Day 13-04/22—174.4 another rough migraine day today.
Day 14-04/23—174.7 Just going to have to get myself together for next week.
Week 2 Goal: 173.7
Week 2 actual weight: 174.7
Day 15-04/24—176.1 Okay, so I blacked out and when I came to, I had eaten a full meal from Arby’s. in itself it wasn’t too bad calorie-wise, but sodium-wise it was devastating. Going out to play trivia at a local tavern and will get a moderate bowl – but still regretting last night.
Day 16-04/25—174.7 Better today.
Day 17-04/26—174.8
Day 18-04/27—174.1 Tasty dinner tonight – grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Mmm.
Day 19-04/28—174.1
Day 20-04/29—173.2
Day 21-04/30—174.2
Week 3 Goal: 171.7
Week 3 actual weight:174.2
Day 22-05/01—173.8 Last night went out to Texas Roadhouse and had a semi-decadent dinner (ate bread and a full-fat side Caesar salad, but had the grilled chicken as a main). Going to try to be better today.
Day 23-05/02—173.0
Day 24-05/03—172.6 So doing a better job of limiting calories at the end of the night. It’s really hard but it’s working thus far. Weekend ahead will be a real test though. Snacking is a problem. A real, real problem. Let’s see… What is my work? my work is not eating when i'm not hungry. Can that be a thing? a double negative? it's really my failing - i eat because things taste good. kind of the WORST reason to eat!
Day 25-05/04—171.8 At heart I’m a glutton, which is why I’m the size I am. I’ll be sitting around, and all of a sudden, I’ll think – “You know what’d be great right now? Buttered popcorn”. Or in the grocery store, passing the deli section, thinking “I know those wings taste pretty good; maybe grab a few for the drive home.” Even though wings are definitely not on my shopping list. It’s an ongoing struggle. Trying to find healthy things that also taste good – or stopping eating at a reasonable point – is a real challenge!
Day 26-05/05—172.5
Day 27-05/06—171.6
Day 28-05/07—172.4 Long day today and frustrating wobbling around this weight. Hopefully next week helps see me shake it off. Have plans to go out for Mexican food for dinner so going to try to rein it in and be controlled – no chips/salsa, moderate main, no alcohol. That’s the plan, let’s see how it goes! I’ll report back in tomorrow. 😊
Week 4 Goal: 172.7
Week 4 actual weight: 172.4
Day 29-05/08—172.4 Okay, mixed success at the Mexican restaurant yesterday. Did do some grazing on chips and salsa but had a fairly responsible main (grilled chicken/chipotle sauce, black beans). It was a ton of sodium, though, which is why I think the scale did what it did.
Day 30-05/09—172.4 And hit a plateau. Got to try to get off this level but it will be hard with a couple nice meals ahead with my mom and my mother-in-law this weekend. Have to stay focused and not just go bonkers on carbs!
Day 31-05/10—172.7 Damnit. When I wanted to move off the plateau I didn’t mean in this direction.
Day 32-05/11—172.5 Happy Mother’s Day! I’ll be happy if I come out of this weekend without having gained weight – with two big meals with the two families… it’s a lot of eating!
Day 33-05/12—172.3 Okay, no weight gain. I’ll take it.
Day 34-05/13—173.4 There’s the weight gain. Was waiting for that. I did eat quite a bit this weekend. And a lot of sodium for dinner last night. This week is going to be a rough one. Going to have to adjust all my goals…
Day 35-05/14—173.0
Week 5 Goal: 170.7
Week 5 actual weight: 173.0
Day 36-05/15—173.0
Day 37-05/16—171.0 yesterday had a horrible migraine. The nausea was so bad that I got super dehydrated and barely ate anything. So I think this dip is completely artificial. Still feel awful today. Bleh.
Day 38-05/17—170.9 slowly getting better from this migraine. Still very nauseated. Just trying to take it easy.
Day 39-05/18—170.7 had a lovely piece of salmon for dinner tonight. Mmm.
Day 40-05/19—170.7 Hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’ve been doing some work, so lots of computer time (just like during the week). While I’ve been super productive, it’s been a bit on the sedentary side. Josh and I have a vacation coming up – we’re going to Reno. We’re going to spend our days out in nature, hiking, and our nights at the casinos. I’m really looking forward to it. Is it weird to pack a scale to bring on vacation? I mean I’ll have space in my checked luggage. But maybe a few days of “DNW” won’t hurt me either. I’ll have to mull this one over. My goal is to not gain weight during the vacation. I’m under no illusions – I am not going to lose any. But not gaining would be nice, given the drinking and decadent food options there will (presumably) be.
Day 41-05/20—170.9 okay was a tad irresponsible last night with the pizza dinner but at least kept servings reasonable. So there was that? It’s also my birthday week so there’s going to be more eating out and lots of temptation. Wish me luck! And I'm definitely going to consider taking the scale on vacation. it may help to "keep me honest". :-)

Day 44—05/23—169.4 It’s my Birthday! I turned 45 today 😊 We’re going out for celebratory dinner… hopefully will hold it together.
Day 45—05/24—168.7 Had a lovely day yesterday! Now we’re getting ready for our vacation next week. Will be travelling to Reno for gambling and nature. 😊
Day 46—05/25—167.9 Start of my vacation! We don’t leave until Tuesday, so plenty of time to pack and prepare. And rest! It’s nice to have time to relax around the house.
Day 47—05/26—168.5
Day 48—05/27—167.5 Okay, I decided I’m not packing my scale for the vacation as that’d be more stressful than relaxing (plus my scale is very heavy). So I’ve got a few DNW days coming up. My plan is to enjoy myself moderately – not go crazy overboard but not be too restrictive either. We’re going to be getting some exercise while birding, and if we don’t get enough, we’ll continue our daily walks. Reno’s supposed to have some great parks and a nice riverfront. I’m really looking forward to the change in environment.
Day 49—05/28—167.4 Vacation day! Our flight leaves this evening.

Day 66—06/14—165.0 Yikes! Not sure where that came from but going to keep with the plan.
Day 67--06/15—164.5 Happy Saturday, folks! So glad it’s the weekend for some rest and relaxation. We’re walking earlier and earlier these days due to the heat and humidity – it’s pretty darn hot here in North Carolina – but it’s nice to get the exercise out of the way earlier. Feels like we accomplished something! My doctor says I need to incorporate heavier exercise in, and I realized how much of a weakling I was when I tried to lift my 40 pound luggage, so I’m going to try to incorporate weights into the routine. I do have a free membership at a gym and all. Just have not made it in “lately”.
Day 68—06/16—163.7 Okay so it’s been an eating-based weekend. Had dinner with my parents yesterday, and going to have lunch with Josh’s parents today. I did pretty well at dinner but still ate more than I could have. Going to try to keep it under control for today…
Day 69—06/17—163.9 well, I’m glad I didn’t go up more than I did. All the food-related visits this weekend was sure to catch up to me. It’s going to be a very stressful week – I have so many important meetings for work – so I’m not looking forward to it at all.

Day 74—06/22—161.7 Okay so spent most of today working. And there’s more to do tomorrow. But at least I can relax a little for the rest of the day. Have to decide what to make for dinner tonight.
Day 75—06/23—162.6 had a “snacking” day yesterday which resulted in the gain. Have to try to control myself. I guess that’s what happens when you go grocery shopping while hungry. One another note, going to try picking up watercoloring again. May start with a “paint by numbers” kit to ease into the experience.
Day 76—06/24—162.6 lilylady3K OMG I am so inspired to pick up painting back up! I love the calendar with the thumbnails of your projects (that vase of daisies is on point!).

Unfortunately I set myself up to work some this weekend, but hopefully I’ll be able to focus and grind it out without too much fuss. I have a paint-by-numbers kit coming at some point, which I’m very excited about!

My goal is to be proud of my weight loss.
Day 01 80.1 kg, I did my planned exercise but I overate a little bit (I'm tracking my intake), since I started tracking I've eaten out 4 times and I need to compensate for those times. I read "most people who lose weight will regain it within 5 years", I checked my old numbers and I'm 3.5 kg under what I weighed 5 years ago. I guess I'm in that category. I talked to my partner about my weight loss (something I'm trying to do less often).
Day 02 80.0 kg, I ate below my ideal which should help me recover from previous overeating. I did my exercise sessions.
Day 03 80.1 kg my eating is on track for the last 3 days but I need to recover from the previous 9 which averaged too high. I exercised and that's on track too. Disappointed that the scale is headed in the wrong direction but...
Day 04 79.4 kg a big loss today. I did a lot of walking, I had sugary food for the first time in 8 days. I overate. Recently there have been 6 days when I overate a lot, I had sugary food 5 times. Coincidence?
Day 05 79.8 kg just a normal day where I am good, no overeating and exercising is as required
Day 06 80.4 kg I started two personal challenges, I had some sugary food because I won't be having sugary food for a while, so on Tuesday I gained...
Day 07 80.6 kg my eating and exercise went well, still need to recover from the overeating episodes, maybe in 2-3 days that will happen
Day 08 80.4 kg I had some treats and food I don't usually have, that's a negative, on the plus side I'm still exercising as I intended
Day 09 80.3 kg I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.Day 58 77.6 kg
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
Day 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
Day 18 80.4 kg whoa how did that happen? Maybe eating too much?
Day 19 79.7 kg ate too much, exercise average is okay
Day 20 79.9 kg
Day 21 80.0 kg I'm now starting the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 22 80.6 kg moderate gain but I'm not too concerned. 10.6 kg in 99 days? Probably.
Day 23 80.4 kg, things are looking good in terms of eating. 10.4 kg in 98 days? Probably.
Day 24 80.0 kg, I'm eating too much, 0.1 kg lost in 23 days. Anyway, 10.0 kg in 97 days? Probably.
Day 25 80.1 kg, eating seems to be under control right now, 30 day weight average has dropped for 3 days in a row (personal best 118 days), 10.1 kg in 96 days? Probably
Day 26 80.0 kg, eating under control 2 days, 10.0 kg in 95 days? Probably.
Day 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes
Day 29 79.5 kg, 9.5 kg in 92 days? Graph says yes
Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
Day 32 77.7 kg
Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
Day 34 77.2 kg
Day 35 77.4 kg
Day 36 77.6 kg
Day 37 77.5 kg

Day 52 76.9 kg
Day 53 77.5 kg
Day 54 77.5 kg
Day 55 78.5 kg
Day 56 77.9 kg
Day 57 77.7 kg So my recent health problem caused me to stop losing weight, I think it's time to start again. I've decided to give myself a challenge - lose 9.7 kg in 97 days. If it's working at the end maybe I'll add an extra 3 days and see if I can do 10 kg in 100 days. Unfortunately my health has not fully recovered so I may need a diagnosis. If that happens I'll stop the challenge. So starting today, I'm aiming to lose weight again. 9.7 kg in 97 days? I probably can do that.
Day 59 77.7 kg lose 9.7 kg in 95 days? Probably
Day 60 77.3 kg, lose 9.3 kg in 94 days? Probably, although I haven't started exercising, I want to have an exercise session this evening, first session in about 2-3 weeks
Day 61 77.0 kg
Day 62 76.6 kg so I haven't started exercising yet, so I'll do the weight loss challenge on the day when I start exercising. Whenever that is.

Decided to start with baby steps focusing on drinking more water this week along with getting back into better consistent exercise.
6/22: 232.9 / 231.9 - Waist 41”, Bike 25 min, 72oz water
Start tracking every single bite!
6/23: 231.9 / 231.6 - Walk .5 mile, Bike 25 min, garden 30 min, 64 oz water, Journaled
My weekly weigh in is on Mondays. Setting my goals for this week.
<230
Bike 3x 25 min
Strong & Fit 2x
Water 72+ oz daily
Journal every bite daily
Day: Weight Daily Weigh In / Trend Weight over 14 days - Comments report day of activity
6/24: 230.1 / 231.2 - Strong & Fit 1 hr, garden 15 min, 80 oz water, journaled
6/25: 230.2 /230.8 - Bike 25, 80 oz water, journaled. Received the lab reports from my physical and mammogram. All is clear. “Just” need to lose weight!
Broke through that 230 barrier that has haunted me in 2024. The last time I saw 229 on the scale was Dec 2023. My BETTER habits are coming back to me and I'm losing!
6/26: 229.1 / 230.3 - Bike 25, 72-80 oz water, journaled.
6/27: 229.2 / 230.0 No exercise day, 80 oz water, journaled.
Using Happy Scale to track my daily weigh in and view my trend. The 14 day moving average provides me a little better understanding that even when the number on the scale goes up that I’m moving in the right direction.
6/28: 229.2 / 229.4 - Strong & Fit 40 min, 72 oz water, journaled. Went to the pool with 1 grandkid in the morning and both in the afternoon. Very active day with my grandkids 2 & 2.5 plus the 3 week old! But I decided to do my strength class first before the grandkids showed up even though I had to cut it short. Me first mindset!

Hi!
I am Dawn. 63, 5'2"
I have been at this tracking for quite awhile, on this particular thread for 15 out of the 19 iterations of it.
I lost quite a bit (got to 130), but have been slowly gaining weight over the past 2 years despite my efforts.
Highest weight was 207. Began on this thread at 198 pounds
Week 1 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it.
Week 1 actual weight: 147.2 - started the week at 146.8
Week 2 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 2 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 148.0 - Hit my goal once
Week 3 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there. Hit it one time during week 2. Hit below it this week

Week 11 actual weight: 147.2 - Started the week at 148.2
Day 78-06/25 - 147.2 - Really enjoyed my day off working in my garden in the sun. I only get 2 days out of the week to try to bring back my tan from Cancun. I guess that most people are in the same boat, working during the day during the tanning rays. So I had a thing happen last night that has happened to me a handful of times in the past. I made a nice healthy dinner, ate about half of it and then I had an overwhelming exhaustion while sitting on the love seat watching HGTV. I fell into a deep sleep for 2 hours from 7pm-9pm. Yes, I was out in the sun most of the day. The last time this happened I wasn't. Neither time did I eat very much. Food coma?
Day 79-06/26 - 147.2 - Always happy to not see a gain. I very seldom am the same weight 2 days in a row, I am usually all over the place.
Day 80-06/27 - 147.2 - Okay. Going through some old photos because my Google photos is getting full and I had to delete. Definitely look much better at 130, didn't have ankle/knee issues.
Day 81-06/28 - 147.0 - I had a referral appointment with a surgeon on Wednesday. In short, she wants to take the plate and screws out of my ankle. It is 6 months from making the decision until the actual surgery. She also wants me to stop getting the injections that help me so much. I can't be doing the surgery because of the 6-8 weeks off of my feet, no income. Perhaps I will revisit it at a later date. Beautiful day today, I don't go to work until 3:00, so am going to get a nice workout in and do some much needed weeding in the garden after I have warmed my joints up.

@dawnbgethealthy - First it all sounds so painful! I can feel your stress weighing long term health and mobility vs income and short term comfort. ((HUGS)) on decision making. Is there someone that you can bounce all these things off of that you trust or does it seem like a second opinion is needed? Or are you comfortable with the direction this surgeon is advising you?
Old photos! I still remember the first time I had to "diet" in high school because I weighed 123 and my dance line wanted me to get back under 120. Then I remember at 150 how I felt fat and joined weight watchers because DH and I were going round and round with my weight gain. Ohhhhhh little did I know that later in life I would be 240. How I wish I has 150 today .... everything would be much skinnier and I too wouldn't likely have these darn knee issues that bother me.
Good luck! rooting for you to be the hiker / ice skater of the past once again!

Thoughts:
Last round I had my normal goal of a 12 pound loss which is approximately 4 lbs per month. That comes to about 90 days leaving the other 10 open for special holidays and social occasions. In theory, it’s a good plan. In practice it is a Mountain to Crawl up. However, 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.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day 80-06/28-186.4-(Trend weight 186.4) Jeepers Creepers it sure goes on faster than it comes off. As usual after a substantial gain I am “mixing things up” to get things moving. Changing type of exercise/rotating, completely adding in different foods I don’t use much, using the zig-zag plan where my calories and carbs are all mixed up to surprise my body, changing what times I eat, increasing water over coffee, Intermittent Fasting (some days) so my body never knows what to expect etc. etc. It will all pay off but it takes a bit of time. Today was no-weigh Friday but I weighed and forgot to take the once-per-week Fosamax for my Osteopenia that usually screws up my Friday schedule. I’ll take it tomorrow instead so I may not weigh tomorrow. Woke up today and mixed it up by doing a 15 minute aerobic video (something I don’t do often in the morning due to needing my coffee so badly). I fasted a little later than yesterday but ate a small side with my lunchtime sandwich will increase the calories for the day for sure so I will be zig-zagging to the higher end allowed. Is it science or is it a game? A little of both I think.
Day 81-06/29- DNW -(Trend weight DNW ) I traded my no-weight Friday for no-weigh Saturday due to the special medication schedule and low sleep on the day. I did very well with meals again yesterday but bad with snacks. Too much again of low carb stuff that really pounded the calories on. I was not even hungry. Not full either, but satisfied. There was (again) no reason for it other than cravings and impulsiveness. I expect that if I got on the scale it would be up a bit. Hopefully I can do okay tonight and get an okay reading tomorrow. Disappointed in myself for sure.

My goal is to be proud of my weight loss.
Day 01 80.1 kg, I did my planned exercise but I overate a little bit (I'm tracking my intake), since I started tracking I've eaten out 4 times and I need to compensate for those times. I read "most people who lose weight will regain it within 5 years", I checked my old numbers and I'm 3.5 kg under what I weighed 5 years ago. I guess I'm in that category. I talked to my partner about my weight loss (something I'm trying to do less often).
Day 02 80.0 kg, I ate below my ideal which should help me recover from previous overeating. I did my exercise sessions.
Day 03 80.1 kg my eating is on track for the last 3 days but I need to recover from the previous 9 which averaged too high. I exercised and that's on track too. Disappointed that the scale is headed in the wrong direction but...
Day 04 79.4 kg a big loss today. I did a lot of walking, I had sugary food for the first time in 8 days. I overate. Recently there have been 6 days when I overate a lot, I had sugary food 5 times. Coincidence?
Day 05 79.8 kg just a normal day where I am good, no overeating and exercising is as required
Day 06 80.4 kg I started two personal challenges, I had some sugary food because I won't be having sugary food for a while, so on Tuesday I gained...
Day 07 80.6 kg my eating and exercise went well, still need to recover from the overeating episodes, maybe in 2-3 days that will happen
Day 08 80.4 kg I had some treats and food I don't usually have, that's a negative, on the plus side I'm still exercising as I intended
Day 09 80.3 kg I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.Day 58 77.6 kg
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
Day 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
Day 18 80.4 kg whoa how did that happen? Maybe eating too much?
Day 19 79.7 kg ate too much, exercise average is okay
Day 20 79.9 kg
Day 21 80.0 kg I'm now starting the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 22 80.6 kg moderate gain but I'm not too concerned. 10.6 kg in 99 days? Probably.
Day 23 80.4 kg, things are looking good in terms of eating. 10.4 kg in 98 days? Probably.
Day 24 80.0 kg, I'm eating too much, 0.1 kg lost in 23 days. Anyway, 10.0 kg in 97 days? Probably.
Day 25 80.1 kg, eating seems to be under control right now, 30 day weight average has dropped for 3 days in a row (personal best 118 days), 10.1 kg in 96 days? Probably
Day 26 80.0 kg, eating under control 2 days, 10.0 kg in 95 days? Probably.
Day 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes
Day 29 79.5 kg, 9.5 kg in 92 days? Graph says yes
Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
Day 32 77.7 kg
Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
Day 34 77.2 kg
Day 35 77.4 kg

Day 52 76.9 kg
Day 53 77.5 kg
Day 54 77.5 kg
Day 55 78.5 kg
Day 56 77.9 kg
Day 57 77.7 kg So my recent health problem caused me to stop losing weight, I think it's time to start again. I've decided to give myself a challenge - lose 9.7 kg in 97 days. If it's working at the end maybe I'll add an extra 3 days and see if I can do 10 kg in 100 days. Unfortunately my health has not fully recovered so I may need a diagnosis. If that happens I'll stop the challenge. So starting today, I'm aiming to lose weight again. 9.7 kg in 97 days? I probably can do that.
Day 59 77.7 kg lose 9.7 kg in 95 days? Probably
Day 60 77.3 kg, lose 9.3 kg in 94 days? Probably, although I haven't started exercising, I want to have an exercise session this evening, first session in about 2-3 weeks
Day 61 77.0 kg
Day 62 76.6 kg so I haven't started exercising yet, so I'll do the weight loss challenge on the day when I start exercising. Whenever that is.

233.2 Ending weight last round on 4/8/2024 before vacation. SOOOOooooo I didn’t gain that much on the cruise after all. It was all BEFORE vacation in 2024! Light bulb!
4/10-4/29: DNW - Vacation France, Canary Islands, Morocco, Spain

6/12: 231.7
Decided to start with baby steps focusing on drinking more water this week along with getting back into better consistent exercise.
6/22: 232.9 / 231.9 - Waist 41”, Bike 25 min, 72oz water
Start tracking every single bite!
6/23: 231.9 / 231.6 - Walk .5 mile, Bike 25 min, garden 30 min, 64 oz water, Journaled
Strategy:
Bike 3x 25 min
Strong & Fit 2x
Water 72+ oz daily
Journal every bite daily
Day: Weight Daily Weigh In / Trend Weight over 14 days - Comments report day of activity
6/24: 230.1 / 231.2 - Strong & Fit 1 hr, garden 15 min, 80 oz water, journaled
6/25: 230.2 /230.8 - Bike 25, 80 oz water, journaled. Received the lab reports from my physical and mammogram. All is clear. “Just” need to lose weight!
Broke through that 230 barrier that has haunted me in 2024. The last time I saw 229 on the scale was Dec 2023. My BETTER habits are coming back to me and I'm losing!
6/26: 229.1 / 230.3 - Bike 25, 72-80 oz water, journaled.
6/27: 229.2 / 230.0 No exercise day, 80 oz water, journaled.
Using Happy Scale to track my daily weigh in and view my trend. The 14 day moving average provides me a little better understanding that even when the number on the scale goes up that I’m moving in the right direction.
6/28: 229.2 / 229.4 - Strong & Fit 40 min, 72 oz water, journaled. Went to the pool with 1 grandkid in the morning and both in the afternoon. Very active day! I decided to do my strength class first before the grandkids showed up even though I had to cut it short. Me first mindset!
6/29: 228.7 / 229.1 - Bike 25, 72-80 oz water, journaled
6/30: 228.5 / 228.8
Week Goal: < 230
Actual Weight: 228.8
I made it!!! I hit this week's targets!!! I'm under 230! I biked Tues, Wed Sat (3x)! I went to my strength training class Mon & Fri (2x)! I kept water by my side and drank at least 72+ oz water each day! I've journaled every day!!!
I have to laugh at my Happy Scale app. I've been using it for years since Aug 9, 2020 when I reached my all time high of 240.4. There have been many ups and downs over the past 4 years including losing 40 lbs. Well it keeps those records and tracks them.
My commitment is to lose 1.5 lbs per week however over that time my overall rate is .06 per week LOL Darn I need to quit gaining back the pounds I lose!!! There should be a NO RETURN policy.
Anyway I started 2024 at 230. My weight before vacation in April was 233.2 and after returning from vacation it was 234 (which actually is not bad for 3 weeks of indulgence).
Happy Scale says today that I've lost
2.5 lbs in 7 days
3.3 lbs in 30 days
5.4 lbs in 90 days
12.5 lbs lost all time (since 8/9/2020).
I'm glad that I jumped back on the band wagon before reaching 245 (my all time high in 2019) again ... all those size 20 pants and 1x tops that supported me at that weight are long gone and everything is pretty tight right now in my size 18 pants and XL tops. I want to get back down to my size 16 and 14 capris this summer
and my L tops once again ... they are so much cuter than what I'm wearing this summer.
Think I'm going to try a new strategy ... when the clothes are too big for me to wear I'm going to toss them out. That way mentally I'll have to kick myself in the butt because there will be no clothes to wear and I'll get uncomfortable in my clothes if I start gaining.
I've always heard that if you see 5 extra pounds on the scale it is time to do something but for some reason I can ignore that ... and just not step on the scale. But I'll not be able to ignore not having clothes stashed away as backup and needing to buy new ones.
How do you keep yourself in check to not regain the weight you've lost?2 -
Hi Folks! My name's Darin, and I'm a 45 year old woman from Holly Springs, North Carolina, USA. I've done a past 100 days challenge before and did really well with it (then regained the weight) so wanted to rejoin and try again.
Starting weight: 176.7Day 01-04/10—176.7Day 78—06/26—162.8
Day 02-04/11—176
Day 03-04/12—175.2
Day 04-04/13—174.6 Went to get a mani/pedi today which was lovely. Made a terrific seared salmon for dinner with baked potato and am stopping eating right now! No more eating. That’s it. or drinking. Let’s see how it goes.
Day 05-04/14—174.3 Succeeded with the no more eating last night. Also succeeded at moderation at an all-you-can eat buffet today (a ton of fresh vegetables and some fruit as well). Thus far the making good decisions is going well. But I think this downward trend is going to stop soon – I’ve lost all the water weight I’m going to lose. So now the work starts for real.
Day 06-04/15—173.9 Work kicked my butt today. Thankfully Josh and I walked this morning so don’t have to try to exercise right now. Just have to try not to stress-eat the entire fridge and pantry…
Day 07-04/16—174.2 Slight uptick but still met my goal weight so there’s that. Tough migraine day – had to take part of the day off from work today for bed rest. UGH.
Week 1 Goal: 174.7
Week 1 actual weight:174.2
Day 08-04/17—175.2 another partial day at work today due to migraine, and I’m retaining water. Blergh. Between the two not feeling great. At least got out and walked, and I meditated today. That’s something.
Day 09-04/18—175.2 migraine’s eased up and have stabilized with the weight. Now hopefully start to see a downward trend? Meditated again and was very moderate with lunch and breakfast. Will try to maintain for dinner.
Day 10-04/19—175.2
Day 11-04/20—174.7 I’m trying to be kind to myself with having felt so bad this week. I did have a ”woke myself up laughing” moment that I’m sure you’ll appreciate… I dreamt that I had gone into the office and was looking at a menu to pick out lunch. You know you’re counting calories IRL when your pick’s a clam chowder bread bowl with a bloomin’ onion topper!
Day 12-04/21—173.9 went to a cheeseburger party yesterday and did well with moderation (just one burger, limited sides, didn’t go bananas when in front of the potato chips although could have. Then came home and didn’t continue eating because I wasn’t hungry. Victory!
Day 13-04/22—174.4 another rough migraine day today.
Day 14-04/23—174.7 Just going to have to get myself together for next week.
Week 2 Goal: 173.7
Week 2 actual weight: 174.7
Day 15-04/24—176.1 Okay, so I blacked out and when I came to, I had eaten a full meal from Arby’s. in itself it wasn’t too bad calorie-wise, but sodium-wise it was devastating. Going out to play trivia at a local tavern and will get a moderate bowl – but still regretting last night.
Day 16-04/25—174.7 Better today.
Day 17-04/26—174.8
Day 18-04/27—174.1 Tasty dinner tonight – grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Mmm.

Week 3 actual weight:174.2
Day 22-05/01—173.8 Last night went out to Texas Roadhouse and had a semi-decadent dinner (ate bread and a full-fat side Caesar salad, but had the grilled chicken as a main). Going to try to be better today.
Day 23-05/02—173.0
Day 24-05/03—172.6 So doing a better job of limiting calories at the end of the night. It’s really hard but it’s working thus far. Weekend ahead will be a real test though. Snacking is a problem. A real, real problem. Let’s see… What is my work? my work is not eating when i'm not hungry. Can that be a thing? a double negative? it's really my failing - i eat because things taste good. kind of the WORST reason to eat!
Day 25-05/04—171.8 At heart I’m a glutton, which is why I’m the size I am. I’ll be sitting around, and all of a sudden, I’ll think – “You know what’d be great right now? Buttered popcorn”. Or in the grocery store, passing the deli section, thinking “I know those wings taste pretty good; maybe grab a few for the drive home.” Even though wings are definitely not on my shopping list. It’s an ongoing struggle. Trying to find healthy things that also taste good – or stopping eating at a reasonable point – is a real challenge!
Day 26-05/05—172.5
Day 27-05/06—171.6
Day 28-05/07—172.4 Long day today and frustrating wobbling around this weight. Hopefully next week helps see me shake it off. Have plans to go out for Mexican food for dinner so going to try to rein it in and be controlled – no chips/salsa, moderate main, no alcohol. That’s the plan, let’s see how it goes! I’ll report back in tomorrow. 😊
Week 4 Goal: 172.7
Week 4 actual weight: 172.4
Day 29-05/08—172.4 Okay, mixed success at the Mexican restaurant yesterday. Did do some grazing on chips and salsa but had a fairly responsible main (grilled chicken/chipotle sauce, black beans). It was a ton of sodium, though, which is why I think the scale did what it did.
Day 30-05/09—172.4 And hit a plateau. Got to try to get off this level but it will be hard with a couple nice meals ahead with my mom and my mother-in-law this weekend. Have to stay focused and not just go bonkers on carbs!
Day 31-05/10—172.7 Damnit. When I wanted to move off the plateau I didn’t mean in this direction.
Day 32-05/11—172.5 Happy Mother’s Day! I’ll be happy if I come out of this weekend without having gained weight – with two big meals with the two families… it’s a lot of eating!
Day 33-05/12—172.3 Okay, no weight gain. I’ll take it.
Day 34-05/13—173.4 There’s the weight gain. Was waiting for that. I did eat quite a bit this weekend. And a lot of sodium for dinner last night. This week is going to be a rough one. Going to have to adjust all my goals…
Day 35-05/14—173.0
Week 5 Goal: 170.7
Week 5 actual weight: 173.0
Day 36-05/15—173.0
Day 37-05/16—171.0 yesterday had a horrible migraine. The nausea was so bad that I got super dehydrated and barely ate anything. So I think this dip is completely artificial. Still feel awful today. Bleh.
Day 38-05/17—170.9 slowly getting better from this migraine. Still very nauseated. Just trying to take it easy.
Day 39-05/18—170.7 had a lovely piece of salmon for dinner tonight. Mmm.
Day 40-05/19—170.7 Hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’ve been doing some work, so lots of computer time (just like during the week). While I’ve been super productive, it’s been a bit on the sedentary side. Josh and I have a vacation coming up – we’re going to Reno. We’re going to spend our days out in nature, hiking, and our nights at the casinos. I’m really looking forward to it. Is it weird to pack a scale to bring on vacation? I mean I’ll have space in my checked luggage. But maybe a few days of “DNW” won’t hurt me either. I’ll have to mull this one over. My goal is to not gain weight during the vacation. I’m under no illusions – I am not going to lose any. But not gaining would be nice, given the drinking and decadent food options there will (presumably) be.
Day 41-05/20—170.9 okay was a tad irresponsible last night with the pizza dinner but at least kept servings reasonable. So there was that? It’s also my birthday week so there’s going to be more eating out and lots of temptation. Wish me luck! And I'm definitely going to consider taking the scale on vacation. it may help to "keep me honest". :-)

Day 44—05/23—169.4 It’s my Birthday! I turned 45 today 😊 We’re going out for celebratory dinner… hopefully will hold it together.
Day 45—05/24—168.7 Had a lovely day yesterday! Now we’re getting ready for our vacation next week. Will be travelling to Reno for gambling and nature. 😊
Day 46—05/25—167.9 Start of my vacation! We don’t leave until Tuesday, so plenty of time to pack and prepare. And rest! It’s nice to have time to relax around the house.
Day 47—05/26—168.5
Day 48—05/27—167.5 Okay, I decided I’m not packing my scale for the vacation as that’d be more stressful than relaxing (plus my scale is very heavy). So I’ve got a few DNW days coming up. My plan is to enjoy myself moderately – not go crazy overboard but not be too restrictive either. We’re going to be getting some exercise while birding, and if we don’t get enough, we’ll continue our daily walks. Reno’s supposed to have some great parks and a nice riverfront. I’m really looking forward to the change in environment.
Day 49—05/28—167.4 Vacation day! Our flight leaves this evening.

Day 66—06/14—165.0 Yikes! Not sure where that came from but going to keep with the plan.
Day 67--06/15—164.5 Happy Saturday, folks! So glad it’s the weekend for some rest and relaxation. We’re walking earlier and earlier these days due to the heat and humidity – it’s pretty darn hot here in North Carolina – but it’s nice to get the exercise out of the way earlier. Feels like we accomplished something! My doctor says I need to incorporate heavier exercise in, and I realized how much of a weakling I was when I tried to lift my 40 pound luggage, so I’m going to try to incorporate weights into the routine. I do have a free membership at a gym and all. Just have not made it in “lately”.
Day 68—06/16—163.7 Okay so it’s been an eating-based weekend. Had dinner with my parents yesterday, and going to have lunch with Josh’s parents today. I did pretty well at dinner but still ate more than I could have. Going to try to keep it under control for today…
Day 69—06/17—163.9 well, I’m glad I didn’t go up more than I did. All the food-related visits this weekend was sure to catch up to me. It’s going to be a very stressful week – I have so many important meetings for work – so I’m not looking forward to it at all.

Day 73—06/21—162.8 Happy Friday y’all! About darn time. Have to do some work this weekend but still looking forward to the relaxation and relative rest. It’s supposed to be record-breaking levels of hot this weekend, so will have to go exercise early in the day.
Day 74—06/22—161.7 Okay so spent most of today working. And there’s more to do tomorrow. But at least I can relax a little for the rest of the day. Have to decide what to make for dinner tonight.
Day 75—06/23—162.6 had a “snacking” day yesterday which resulted in the gain. Have to try to control myself. I guess that’s what happens when you go grocery shopping while hungry. One another note, going to try picking up watercoloring again. May start with a “paint by numbers” kit to ease into the experience.
Day 76—06/24—162.6 lilylady3K OMG I am so inspired to pick up painting back up! I love the calendar with the thumbnails of your projects (that vase of daisies is on point!).

Unfortunately I set myself up to work some this weekend, but hopefully I’ll be able to focus and grind it out without too much fuss. I have a paint-by-numbers kit coming at some point, which I’m very excited about!
Day 81—06/29—161.3
Day 82—06/30—161.0 @lilylady3k That's the big question, isn't it? One I'm hoping to find the answer to. Last time I did a 100 days challenge I did lose weight, but I ended up regaining almost all of it. I don't know if that means the answer for me is to keep doing these challenges to "keep myself honest" or find some hidden reserve in me that doesn't overeat. I guess the longer term solution is to find that hidden reserve. so still trying to figure out maintenance.

@Lilylady3k
Very true words about when we thought that we were fat (we might have been) and how we wish that we were that weight again.
I remember Kirsty Ally (sp?) saying that she thought that she was fat while doing "Cheers" and she really ballooned in the years to come after that.
As for my ankle, the injections really made a big difference for me, done by my family doctor who does lots of them.
I still ice skate (in the winter) and hike (not in the hot summers). I had one on May 21st of this year, the day before going to Cancun, so that one is still active.
As for the surgery, the first 2 weeks of the recovery are to stay off of it completely. Yikes, that is not like me at all. I would be cuckoo lol.
Maybe someday, but not in the next couple of years for sure.

Hi!
I am Dawn. 63, 5'2"
I have been at this tracking for quite awhile, on this particular thread for 15 out of the 19 iterations of it.
I lost quite a bit (got to 130), but have been slowly gaining weight over the past 2 years despite my efforts.
Highest weight was 207. Began on this thread at 198 pounds
Week 1 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it.
Week 1 actual weight: 147.2 - started the week at 146.8
Week 2 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 2 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 148.0 - Hit my goal once
Week 3 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there. Hit it one time during week 2. Hit below it this week
Week 3 actual weight: 146.4
Week 4 Goal: 145.6. My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 4 actual weight: 147.6
Week 5 Goal: stopping smoking week as of May 7
Week 5 actual weight: 149.6
Week 6 Goal: Didn't set one
Week 6 actual weight: 151.0 - extremely early weigh in, so it might be inflated
Week 7 Goal: Just to enjoy my time at the all-inclusive Cancun
Week 7 actual weight: I was away, no scale. Started the week at 149.4
Week 8 Goal: Just to enjoy my time at the all-inclusive Cancun
Week 8 actual weight: Away with no scale, but started smoking upon arrival at the front entrance where everyone was smoking.
Week 9 Goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 9 actual weight: 149.2 Started the week at 151.0
Week 10 Goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 10 actual weight: 147.4 - Started the week at 149.0
Week 11 goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100
Week 11 actual weight: 147.2 - Started the week at 148.2
Day 78-06/25 - 147.2 - Really enjoyed my day off working in my garden in the sun. I only get 2 days out of the week to try to bring back my tan from Cancun. I guess that most people are in the same boat, working during the day during the tanning rays. So I had a thing happen last night that has happened to me a handful of times in the past. I made a nice healthy dinner, ate about half of it and then I had an overwhelming exhaustion while sitting on the love seat watching HGTV. I fell into a deep sleep for 2 hours from 7pm-9pm. Yes, I was out in the sun most of the day. The last time this happened I wasn't. Neither time did I eat very much. Food coma?
Day 79-06/26 - 147.2 - Always happy to not see a gain. I very seldom am the same weight 2 days in a row, I am usually all over the place.
Day 80-06/27 - 147.2 - Okay. Going through some old photos because my Google photos is getting full and I had to delete. Definitely look much better at 130, didn't have ankle/knee issues.
Day 81-06/28 - 147.0 - I had a referral appointment with a surgeon on Wednesday. In short, she wants to take the plate and screws out of my ankle. It is 6 months from making the decision until the actual surgery. She also wants me to stop getting the injections that help me so much. I can't be doing the surgery because of the 6-8 weeks off of my feet, no income. Perhaps I will revisit it at a later date. Beautiful day today, I don't go to work until 3:00, so am going to get a nice workout in and do some much needed weeding in the garden after I have warmed my joints up.
Day 82-06/29 - 149.2 - Dagnabbit, 2.2 gain overnight? Nothing different in my eating or exercising, so hoping that it is just a blip.
Day 83-06/30 -
Day 84-07/01 -
Week 12 Goal: 146.8 - putting this in each week until I get back to my start weight of this 100

Thoughts:
Last round I had my normal goal of a 12 pound loss which is approximately 4 lbs per month. That comes to about 90 days leaving the other 10 open for special holidays and social occasions. In theory, it’s a good plan. In practice it is a Mountain to Crawl up. However, 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.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Day 81-06/29- DNW -(Trend weight DNW ) I traded my no-weight Friday for no-weigh Saturday due to the special medication schedule and low sleep on the day. I did very well with meals again yesterday but bad with snacks. Too much again of low carb stuff that really pounded the calories on. I was not even hungry. Not full either, but satisfied. There was (again) no reason for it other than cravings and impulsiveness. I expect that if I got on the scale it would be up a bit. Hopefully I can do okay tonight and get an okay reading tomorrow. Disappointed in myself for sure.
Day 82-06/30-187.0-(Trend weight 186.6) I think I typed my trend weight wrong on some of my other challenges but I’ve got it correct here. The other challenges have shown me that I gained 5.2 lbs in the month of June. Not shocked. While I can rattle off every excuse that is actually true (diabetes, thyroid, hormone suppressing cancer medication, heart condition limiting exertion on exercise, age, blah, blah blah) there are two things I know for sure. 1. Even if my exercise is different from what others can do, I absolutely could have done more of my own. 2. Even if my metabolism does not work like other healthier people’s, I could certainly have eaten better and eaten less and worked harder on the binge disorder. I have to remind myself that I am trying to lose 106 to 108 pounds from my original weight of 253. That’s a long and difficult process but it is possible and I am just the gal to do it! About 66 down and about 40 to go. Thanks for letting me share my pep talk to myself. Hopefully it helps others too. If you are struggling, I’m with you.

My goal is to be proud of my weight loss.
Day 01 80.1 kg, I did my planned exercise but I overate a little bit (I'm tracking my intake), since I started tracking I've eaten out 4 times and I need to compensate for those times. I read "most people who lose weight will regain it within 5 years", I checked my old numbers and I'm 3.5 kg under what I weighed 5 years ago. I guess I'm in that category. I talked to my partner about my weight loss (something I'm trying to do less often).
Day 02 80.0 kg, I ate below my ideal which should help me recover from previous overeating. I did my exercise sessions.
Day 03 80.1 kg my eating is on track for the last 3 days but I need to recover from the previous 9 which averaged too high. I exercised and that's on track too. Disappointed that the scale is headed in the wrong direction but...
Day 04 79.4 kg a big loss today. I did a lot of walking, I had sugary food for the first time in 8 days. I overate. Recently there have been 6 days when I overate a lot, I had sugary food 5 times. Coincidence?
Day 05 79.8 kg just a normal day where I am good, no overeating and exercising is as required
Day 06 80.4 kg I started two personal challenges, I had some sugary food because I won't be having sugary food for a while, so on Tuesday I gained...
Day 07 80.6 kg my eating and exercise went well, still need to recover from the overeating episodes, maybe in 2-3 days that will happen
Day 08 80.4 kg I had some treats and food I don't usually have, that's a negative, on the plus side I'm still exercising as I intended
Day 09 80.3 kg I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.Day 58 77.6 kg
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
Day 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
Day 18 80.4 kg whoa how did that happen? Maybe eating too much?
Day 19 79.7 kg ate too much, exercise average is okay
Day 20 79.9 kg
Day 21 80.0 kg I'm now starting the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 22 80.6 kg moderate gain but I'm not too concerned. 10.6 kg in 99 days? Probably.
Day 23 80.4 kg, things are looking good in terms of eating. 10.4 kg in 98 days? Probably.
Day 24 80.0 kg, I'm eating too much, 0.1 kg lost in 23 days. Anyway, 10.0 kg in 97 days? Probably.
Day 25 80.1 kg, eating seems to be under control right now, 30 day weight average has dropped for 3 days in a row (personal best 118 days), 10.1 kg in 96 days? Probably
Day 26 80.0 kg, eating under control 2 days, 10.0 kg in 95 days? Probably.
Day 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes
Day 29 79.5 kg, 9.5 kg in 92 days? Graph says yes
Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
Day 32 77.7 kg
Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
Day 34 77.2 kg
Day 35 77.4 kg

Day 52 76.9 kg
Day 53 77.5 kg
Day 54 77.5 kg
Day 55 78.5 kg
Day 56 77.9 kg
Day 57 77.7 kg So my recent health problem caused me to stop losing weight, I think it's time to start again. I've decided to give myself a challenge - lose 9.7 kg in 97 days. If it's working at the end maybe I'll add an extra 3 days and see if I can do 10 kg in 100 days. Unfortunately my health has not fully recovered so I may need a diagnosis. If that happens I'll stop the challenge. So starting today, I'm aiming to lose weight again. 9.7 kg in 97 days? I probably can do that.
Day 59 77.7 kg lose 9.7 kg in 95 days? Probably
Day 60 77.3 kg, lose 9.3 kg in 94 days? Probably, although I haven't started exercising, I want to have an exercise session this evening, first session in about 2-3 weeks
Day 61 77.0 kg
Day 62 76.6 kg so I haven't started exercising yet, so I'll do the weight loss challenge on the day when I start exercising. Whenever that is.

Week 12:
Monday, 174.8
Day 78—06/26—173.8 on plan.
Day 79—06/27—172.2 on plan until cracker snack attack at 12:30am. Also need to check out the points for almonds.
Day 80—06/28-- 174 no snacking today. Yard needs attention after a couple of days of rain. House also needs serious decluttering. Booked motels for Aug trip.
Day 81—06/29-- 173.2
Day 82—06/30-- 175 This is getting super annoying. Not blowing way off plan, no peanut butter sandwiches, cheddar cheese etc etc. My ‘diet’ has way lightened up but the weight stays essentially the same. * sigh * I was on anti-inflammatories and muscle relaxants for my shoulder, perhaps this is causing some fluid retention. Got thru work today without any shoulder issues; worked smarter, not harder.
Day 83—07/01--
Day 84—07/02--
Week 12 Target: 172.

Dawn, you could always qualify for medical E.I. Problem might be that you can only receive up to 55% of your earnings which may still leave you short if surgery was done in the near future. It might seem a pain in the butt because you'd need to give a record of all jobs over the past year so working two and three jobs a time may need a spreadsheet to sort out
Who knows, you may be eligible to take some computer or accounting courses while on e.i.
Hope things work out okay for you.3 -
