Thoughts at the beginning of this challenge:
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, uphill, both ways. However, each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I CAN make, no matter how big or small. Sadly, I gained a little over 6 pounds last round. I hope to turn all that back around this round. After all, here in Northern Michigan I wait a very long time each year to finally get to good weather and more outside activity. I really want to capitalize on the good weather in the summer months and increase activity and drop pounds. I’m failing miserably with this so far in 2024. Time to maximize the rest of summer and early fall with challenge #20 and make the magic happen! I am so very 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 21-08/08-188.8-(Trend weight 189.4) I typed it wrong yesterday—I meant that I’ve been bouncing back & forth between 188.2 and 189.2 Not 199! Anyway, I’m up today and not surprised since I traveled yesterday for the dentist. No cavities for me, 3 for my son so we have to go back for him in Sept and Oct. for fillings and a “core filling”. Ate at a steak house and one of the sides was Alfredo so I’m not surprised I’m up a bit. Experience tells me this could have been much much worse. Crew is back today to hopefully finish up the last of the windows. Ordered the roofing supplies yesterday which is $350.00 for delivery just to the end of the driveway! I was shocked!

Getting ready to leave for my nuclear stress test on the heart so today will be mainly all travel or sitting. Lunch will be out. I may skip my weight tomorrow, we’ll see. This is the last of the 3 out of 5 days of travel and appointments for this week. @dawnbgethealthy I’m so sorry to hear about the stitches and the injury. Wishing you speedy healing.

Hi, Folks! My name is Darin, and this is my 3rd 100 days challenge (non-consecutive). I do better when I am obligated to post daily – it really makes a difference for me – and I love the community aspect. I’m looking forward to another great 100d!
Starting Weight: 159.2Day 01--07/19 – 159.2 My company was affected by the Crowdstrike problem. I spent all day on hold with IT. My computer is finally working, but it’s after an entire wasted day. Note to self: next time there’s a system-wide failure, just leave the computer and do something fun instead. It wasn’t worth hanging around my work computer, looking at messages come in. I could have had a nice day of paint-by-numbers! Well, that’s my weekend.Day 22—08/09 –158.1 Another work week done. Soooo looking forward to some R&R! going to try to fit in some extra walking this weekend if not a trip to the gym. Also donating platelets on Sunday, which I try to do at least monthly.
Day 02—07/20 – 158.6 Happy Weekend! I hope y’all are doing well. I’m so glad to have some time to relax and putter around the house. Also in charge of dinner for tonight, so will try to come up with something satisfying but healthy.
Day 03—07/21 –159.6 mixed results for last night. I made a kung pao chicken noodle dish which turned out very good, but I also baked cookies which were not part of the plan. So four cookies later, I had nulled out any positivity from the dinner.
Day 04—07/22 –159.9 COOKIES. Too many cookies! Stopped at four yesterday straight out of the oven. But cookie breakfast AND snack isn’t the way I want to go. I also feel kind of bleh afterwards – I think it’s just the empty calories/sugar. Logging it all, though. No matter what!
Day 05—07/23 –159.2 Hard to focus at work today. Migraine did not help matters at all.
Day 06—07/24 –158.6 Almost done with week 1! We’re walking early in the day due to the heat. Tonight it’s back to trivia. We won first place last week, so it remains to be seen how well we do tonight 😊
Day 07—07/25 –158.7 Got 4th place yesterday in trivia. Boo! Next time around…. Looking forward to Friday tomorrow. My husband bought some apple fritters which are now in the house. It’s going to be hard to do that in moderation!
Week 1 Goal: 158.2
Week 1 actual weight: 158.7
Day 08—07/26 –159.2 Moderately stressful Friday today. So glad it’s the weekend.
Day 09—07/27 –158.7 Got a haircut and did some paint-by-numbers today. Looking forward to a gentle Sunday 😊
Day 10—07/28 –158.3
Day 11—07/29 –158.5
Day 12—07/30 –158.0 terrible night last night – have some kind of stomach bug. On the up side I’m not that hungry. ON the downside, lots of GI problems right now.
Day 13—07/31 –159.0 Feeling better and think that the weight is due to the salty soup I ate for dinner yesterday. Had a fairly productive day today, though. Lilylady3k I love it! Your calendar is the tops!
Day 14—08/01 –158.0 Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday. Long, tough workday today. At least got the walk out of the way early in the very humid day.
Week 2 Goal: 156.2
Week 2 actual weight: 158.0
Day 15—08/02 –158.6 survived the workday. Looking forward to a peaceful weekend ahead. One of the activities is taking my mom out for birthday dinner, so that’ll be a real test of moderation.
Day 16—08/03 –156.9 Woot! Maybe I’m out of the 158s now? That would be super. I’ve been hanging out there for some time now. Had a lovely day of painting and playing around, then cooked a nice dinner for Josh and me – it wasn’t calorie-conscious, but I only ate one serving 😊 There’s a berry cheesecake defrosting, though, so I’m going to have to be very wary around that!!!
Day 17—08/04 –157.0 That cheesecake was delicious. It was hard to keep it to one serving! I was very close to just saying “too delicious for just one slice” lol. It’s still in the fridge, though – so if I can hold it together for the rest of the day, maybe I can have another slice. *maybe*
Day 18—08/05 –157.8 Eating out yesterday plus the cheesecake equalled a bit of a slide backwards. But today I’ve been doing okay. Going to give that last slice of cheesecake to my husband – he’ll appreciate that!
Day 19—08/06 –158.4 Well all good intentions, my husband ended up giving me back the cheesecake slice. I swore, then I ate it. So the scale is definitely deserved.
Day 20—08/07 –157.4 Going out to play trivia tonight! Looking forward to a little relaxation at the local tavern. They have a “design your own salad” option that I’m very much anticipating.
Day 21—08/08 –158.1 and I opted to have a hot dog and tater tots instead of salad. Whoops. We got second place at trivia, though, so it was a sweet victory! Okay next time I’m getting the salad. Non-scout’s honor.

@DarinGettingFitNow I also like to donate blood and have donated platelets three time so far. I don't do it as often as I would like. Sometimes my iron level is too low. I tried to give a week ago, and even with taking extra iron pills for a couple of weeks, still too low. Do you ever have issues with this?2

Perfect Timing! Thank you @dawnbgethealthy for initiating this challenge. Just really getting started with a weight loss program about 2 weeks ago. I need the accountability. Thanks @deepwoodslady for the dates template. I am SHenson3206. My current weight 171.4 Height is 5'5". My goals is to be 21 lbs lighter in 100 days.

226.6 - Ending weight last round on 7/11/2024 before vacation.
7/11-7/25: DNW - Vacation Iceland & Norway
7/26: 229.2 / 229.0 - Gained 2.6 lbs on vacation at first weigh in. I expect some of this to be travel bloat and disappear by tomorrow but not all! I did walk most days 2-6 miles which I'm proud of! Pushed through the knee pain. And one day I actually got on the bike in the gym on the boat.
Not surprised that my weight is up. After a day of travel leaving at 3am Thursday morning from the hotel in Oslo … hour drive to the airport… flights to Paris, Detroit, Houston (airplane food on each leg of the journey and 3 bags of chips on the last flight) … landed in Houston at 6pm … picking up our dog & dinner with our son’s family at 7:30pm, another hour driving home finally home at 10:00pm Thursday night (which was 5am Friday morning Oslo time). So all in all a 26 hour travel day.
Broke my promise to myself so vacation eating plan was a fail in that I ate the bread basket every night at dinner and dessert at lunch, dinner and 4pm tea time on a 11 night cruise! Oh boy such bad habits on vacation to over come. Otherwise my eating was really healthy with small portions and no snacking. Lots of room to improve on my next cruise in October.
Now to tackle these pounds and not let them continue to slip back into the 230s.
7/27: 227.5 / 228.6 - The real weight gain from my trip is .9 lbs! Less than a pound. Shedded the bloat from the long 26 hours of travel and got my body reset to this time zone. I’ll take it and tackle that little gain before it slips away from me. 😊 Now to make progress … meaning I need to focus on WATER, exercise and journaling every bite remembering small portions pay off big dividends helping me toward my goals.
Biked 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
7/28: 226.0 / 227.8 - Back to clean living and better habits. Grocery shopping was huge since before leaving due to the hurricane electrical outage for 3-4 days we had to throw EVERYTHING out of our 2 fridge/freezers. So lots of fresh food and very few temptations or snacks in the house. DH didn’t even buy cookies so there are no sweets to add calories after dinner. Created menus and bought only what was needed though I did forget salad dressing … guess the selection balsamic my sister gave me for Christmas will due in a pinch. LOL
Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
7/29: 225.5 / 227.1 - Didn’t make strength training class since DH has Covid and I had to deal with the AC guy for our annual checkup. He was early and showed up when my class was suppose to start. So after he left I got on the bike instead.
Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80 oz
Weekly Goal: Lose any vacation pounds and ensure I’m back < 227
Actual Weight: 225.5 - BMI = 40
Challenge Weight Loss: 1.1
🎯 Returning from vacation and getting myself started back on the healthy journey was key this week. I’m happy with my focus and determination. Now to focus on no longer being labeled “morbidly” obese.
7/30: 224.8 / 226.2 - Bike 30, journaled, water 80 oz. Focusing on getting the 7 hrs recommended sleep.
7/31: 224.5 / 225.5 - Since I missed strength training Monday I’ll tune into her private YouTube channel and do a make up session. I put it off not feeling my best so probably will test for Covid later today. Skipped all exercise instead this Wednesday. First time in the red since I had not activity to burn off extra calories. 1228 cal and 70 net carbs. Felt so awfully full in the evening that I had to stretch out and go to bed early. Journaled and 80 oz water.
8/1: 224.4 / 225.0 - Feeling good this morning but still have an uncomfortably full sensation. Otherwise feel normal. Negative Covid test! Biked 30 72+ oz water. Journaled a big bowl of red beans and rice but the surprise was the 31 carbs in my store bought prepackaged salad! Roundtrip 3 hours to north part of Houston to watch my granddaughter for 2 hrs. DH is considering moving to be closer.
8/2: 224.1 / 224.5 - Today’s focus … after my exercise class … prep for the party. Buying everything for the charcuterie board I’m making for the party, bake dark chocolate brownies, an then picking up wine & special iced cookies for the party tomorrow. The other grandmother is having tea sandwiches made, buying a dip, wine, variety of sparkling waters and she hired someone to act as bartender and to keep the place picked up during the party (la-di-da but that is how she rolls in her world … the party is at her house in a very nice upscale area inside Houston).
Only did 20 min of my strength training class because I became dizzy and almost fainted. Had to lay down. Journaled. 72+ oz water.
8/3: 224.8 / 224.4 - Not at all surprised by the up tic on the scale. Lunch out with my daughter yesterday and though we split the meal I let her order … chips with spinach artichoke dip, chicken strips, French fries. Nothing healthy about it! Then I ate brownies because they made a crumbled mess out of the pan and didn’t get a clean square … probably ate 2.
Today I need to be a little more cautious in my eating! Sip & See for my new granddaughter. Myself and the other grandmother are hosting a large party of our lady friends (45-50) to meet all 3 of my grandchildren. No exercise, no journal but did drink my water. Didn’t eat anything at the party but did have a slice of brisket at my son’s and a cookie when I returned home.
8/4: 223.5 / 223.9 - Nothing planned today but the bike and painting. May get out and weed some though the heat is stifling. Way too much charcuterie and cookie leftovers in the house. DH & I could have charcuterie for lunch or dinner every day this week LOL
Bike 30 min, water definitely but not sure of the oz, no journal.
20 min strength training, not enough water and no journaling.
Weekly Goal: Obese stage 2 BMI 39.9 @ <225 No longer 🚫 morbidly obese!
Actual Weight: 223.7 - BMI 39.7
Challenge Weight Loss: 2.9
🎯 I moved out of Morbidly obese stage 3 and into obese stage 2! ✔️
Now to work my way down to obese stage 1 around 197 but I’ll first have to hit many milestones to get there.
NSV - I “slid” my cellphone into my front pocket of my pants with lots of room to spare. (Aug 2024) ✔️
8/6: 224.6 / 223.8 - All the wrong food choices yesterday left a very heavy feeling and it shows on the scale this morning. Biked 30, some water but not enough and no journaling. Though I was really really busy. My day … bike, shower & wash hair, groceries, dry hair, lunch, art class, pick up granddaughter and take her to the Children’s Museum, drive back across town to my daughter’s house and help her for a while, then a sorority alumni wine kickoff … finally back home around 8:30. Every time I got into the car I was driving 45 min at a min. Exhausted drank more water and went to bed!
8/7: 223.4 / 223.5 - No planned exercise for Wed! Need to focus on water. Though I’m not journaling my portion control has been spot on and no time for snacking the last few days. Driving up to care for my other granddaughter 1.5 hrs away for the day while her mom goes to a pottery class.
8/8: 223.5 / 223.4 - Bike 30 min, water, but only half journaling and way over my net carb limit of <100 due to snacking on crackers. Couldn’t go into town to help my daughter with the baby due to her husband running fever so she waved me off. And my sister just started back to school teaching but this was the week before kids … she now has covid probably from the large district training classes on Mon & Tues.
8/9: 224.4 / 223.5 - Okay up way to early and not sure that I like the number on the scale bouncing around … plan to focus today and make a difference! Strength training 40 min, water, but still no journaling.
8/10: 222.9 / 223.2 - Today will be challenging. Daughter is here for the weekend with her 2 little ones since their doctor doesn’t want the 2 month old around her husband since he was diagnosed with pneumonia. Also DH & I are headed to Galveston for the day to meet up with old friends staying at the Kemah Marina over the weekend. We plan to walk around, eat lunch at one of the seafood restaurants on the water and take a ride in their boat.

I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.

Day 23—08/10 – 147.6 - Up much earlier than planned, so my weight is higher. Having said that, I am off tomorrow, so that could mean some indulgence after work tonight. I changed my dressing over my stitches today as prescribed. I sure didn't get it on very nicely! I am wearing disposable gloves at work to keep it clean. Stitches come out on Thursday morning. I harvested my garlic with my left hand on Thursday, so I am going to make some sort of Alfredo on Sunday with a couple of loose ones.

Hi , MFP people,
So I have a goal for the end of this challenge in about 2 1/2 mos. from now .
At today’s w.i I was at 215.3 . So about 20# more to take off by then.
I must say since starting this challenge I’ve had to Re-examine what ‘STAYING WITHIN MY FOOD PLAN’ REALLY MEANS , because it came to My Attention that there were Loopholes in Adhering to my food plan , meaning it’s kind of permissive about how much I can eat. But I’ve had to clamp down on that loophole and walk the narrow road about my eating, i.e. got more strict by myself as the food plan wasn’t holding me in. If u can follow what I mean.
Have a lovely sunny day, everyone! ☀️🌸6 -
Round 18 80.1 to 76.4 kg
Day 1 73.6 a big drop from my last reading on day 98, it's not total fat loss, I expect to gain as my body recovers
Day 2 73.6
Day 3 73.6
Day 4 DNW
Day 5 73.2
Day 6 73.7
Day 7 73.5 I want to lose at least a kilogram a month, that should be easy to achieve. So "it's all on" as they say. I will post when I have what I consider junk food. It's been 12 days since I had sugar. That's the longest in the last 5 1/2 years. I consider that an achievement. I had KFC yesterday because the mall I was at has no where to sit down and do stuff, I needed to email the receipt from the water payment and wasn't going home until it was done. At the moment, I'm a bit slower than one kilogram a month.
Day 8 74.1
Day 9 73.7 I have now lost weight for 42 consecutive months. That's an alternative way of saying "the_reflex is taking forever to reach goal weight, 42 months to lose 22 kg". But it shows that I haven't rebounded to any large extent. That's a hopeful sign for maintenance.
I had sugar today, after 14 days. Sugary food and chocolate definitely changes my mood. Buzzy feeling. I hope to not have sugary food again for a while.
Day 10 73.1
Day 11 72.3 my weight has dropped quite a bit in the last 3 days but that's just because I stopped having salty food. I just checked my spreadsheet, guess what? 29th July 2014. 73.0 kg. I'm now the weight I was 10 years ago. I consider this a milestone. I had a Starbucks meal to celebrate.
Day 12 73.1 pizza in the evening resulting in...
Day 13 75.5
Day 14 75.8, still showing the effect of the pizza. But I'm not hungry right now, so I'm eating too much. I lost 2.7 kg in July, a lot of that is from getting influenza (not covid - I got tested) which went to my throat, stomach, lungs and inner ear. Anyway I need to eat less.
Goal weight - 64 kg. I really want to aim for reaching goal weight by the end of the year. I don't know if I can do it, but it would be nice to achieve it. So I need to track my intake, starting today, first of the month. That's about 150 days of tracking and estimating food needed. It would be nice to have a long period of continuous tracking because when I reach goal weight, that's it, no more tracking. I can't exercise right now due to the temperature, but I'm moving soon so I'll be in a cooler environment.
Day 15 75.7
Day 16 76.3
Day 17 76.1
Day 18 76.6
Day 19 75.8
Day 20 DNW
Day 21 DNW
Day 22 DNW
Day 23 75.6
Day 24 76.1
I'm now in a cool location, I can exercise such as running. If I'm running I need to track my intake, so I need to average between two intake numbers. If my average intake is between these numbers (unlikely that it'll be below the minimum but I'll put it in anyway) I'll post "eating okay".3 -
Hi, Folks! My name is Darin, and this is my 3rd 100 days challenge (non-consecutive). I do better when I am obligated to post daily – it really makes a difference for me – and I love the community aspect. I’m looking forward to another great 100d!
Starting Weight: 159.2Day 01--07/19 – 159.2 My company was affected by the Crowdstrike problem. I spent all day on hold with IT. My computer is finally working, but it’s after an entire wasted day. Note to self: next time there’s a system-wide failure, just leave the computer and do something fun instead. It wasn’t worth hanging around my work computer, looking at messages come in. I could have had a nice day of paint-by-numbers! Well, that’s my weekend.Day 22—08/09 –158.1 Another work week done. Soooo looking forward to some R&R! going to try to fit in some extra walking this weekend if not a trip to the gym. Also donating platelets on Sunday, which I try to do at least monthly.
Day 02—07/20 – 158.6 Happy Weekend! I hope y’all are doing well. I’m so glad to have some time to relax and putter around the house. Also in charge of dinner for tonight, so will try to come up with something satisfying but healthy.
Day 03—07/21 –159.6 mixed results for last night. I made a kung pao chicken noodle dish which turned out very good, but I also baked cookies which were not part of the plan. So four cookies later, I had nulled out any positivity from the dinner.
Day 04—07/22 –159.9 COOKIES. Too many cookies! Stopped at four yesterday straight out of the oven. But cookie breakfast AND snack isn’t the way I want to go. I also feel kind of bleh afterwards – I think it’s just the empty calories/sugar. Logging it all, though. No matter what!
Day 05—07/23 –159.2 Hard to focus at work today. Migraine did not help matters at all.
Day 06—07/24 –158.6 Almost done with week 1! We’re walking early in the day due to the heat. Tonight it’s back to trivia. We won first place last week, so it remains to be seen how well we do tonight 😊
Day 07—07/25 –158.7 Got 4th place yesterday in trivia. Boo! Next time around…. Looking forward to Friday tomorrow. My husband bought some apple fritters which are now in the house. It’s going to be hard to do that in moderation!
Week 1 Goal: 158.2
Week 1 actual weight: 158.7
Day 08—07/26 –159.2 Moderately stressful Friday today. So glad it’s the weekend.
Day 09—07/27 –158.7 Got a haircut and did some paint-by-numbers today. Looking forward to a gentle Sunday 😊
Day 10—07/28 –158.3
Day 11—07/29 –158.5
Day 12—07/30 –158.0 terrible night last night – have some kind of stomach bug. On the up side I’m not that hungry. ON the downside, lots of GI problems right now.
Day 13—07/31 –159.0 Feeling better and think that the weight is due to the salty soup I ate for dinner yesterday. Had a fairly productive day today, though. Lilylady3k I love it! Your calendar is the tops!
Day 14—08/01 –158.0 Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday. Long, tough workday today. At least got the walk out of the way early in the very humid day.
Week 2 Goal: 156.2
Week 2 actual weight: 158.0
Day 15—08/02 –158.6 survived the workday. Looking forward to a peaceful weekend ahead. One of the activities is taking my mom out for birthday dinner, so that’ll be a real test of moderation.
Day 16—08/03 –156.9 Woot! Maybe I’m out of the 158s now? That would be super. I’ve been hanging out there for some time now. Had a lovely day of painting and playing around, then cooked a nice dinner for Josh and me – it wasn’t calorie-conscious, but I only ate one serving 😊 There’s a berry cheesecake defrosting, though, so I’m going to have to be very wary around that!!!
Day 17—08/04 –157.0 That cheesecake was delicious. It was hard to keep it to one serving! I was very close to just saying “too delicious for just one slice” lol. It’s still in the fridge, though – so if I can hold it together for the rest of the day, maybe I can have another slice. *maybe*
Day 18—08/05 –157.8 Eating out yesterday plus the cheesecake equalled a bit of a slide backwards. But today I’ve been doing okay. Going to give that last slice of cheesecake to my husband – he’ll appreciate that!
Day 19—08/06 –158.4 Well all good intentions, my husband ended up giving me back the cheesecake slice. I swore, then I ate it. So the scale is definitely deserved.
Day 20—08/07 –157.4 Going out to play trivia tonight! Looking forward to a little relaxation at the local tavern. They have a “design your own salad” option that I’m very much anticipating.
Day 21—08/08 –158.1 and I opted to have a hot dog and tater tots instead of salad. Whoops. We got second place at trivia, though, so it was a sweet victory! Okay next time I’m getting the salad. Non-scout’s honor.
Week 3 Goal: 155.2
Week 3 actual weight: 158.1
Day 23—08/10 –157.3 It was very hot and humid today, so we skipped our walk. Tomorrow will get up early to exercise and hope to beat the heat. @looneycatblue I take iron supplements daily to help with my levels. It took a while of taking them to get stabilized – a few weeks might not be enough prep time for you.

Thoughts at the beginning of this challenge:
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, uphill, both ways. However, each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I CAN make, no matter how big or small. Sadly, I gained a little over 6 pounds last round. I hope to turn all that back around this round. After all, here in Northern Michigan I wait a very long time each year to finally get to good weather and more outside activity. I really want to capitalize on the good weather in the summer months and increase activity and drop pounds. I’m failing miserably with this so far in 2024. Time to maximize the rest of summer and early fall with challenge #20 and make the magic happen! I am so very 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!

I'm now in a cool location, I can exercise such as running. If I'm running I need to track my intake, so I need to average between two intake numbers. If my average intake is between these numbers (unlikely that it'll be below the minimum but I'll put it in anyway) I'll post "eating okay". "
I am not sure what you mean by that exactly.
MFP should take all of the guesswork out for you. Enter everything that you eat, enter your exercise.
I personally feel that it is always good to be in the "green". I don't eat back my exercise calories.4 -

Hi : - )

63 and will turn 64 during this 100
Cranbrook, BC
The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
I have gained in each of the last 6 of them!
I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.
Week 1 Goal: 146.2
Week 1 actual weight: 148.0 - Started the week at 147.2
Week 2 Goal: 147s
Week 2 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 148.2
Week 3 Goal: 146s
Week 3 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 147.6
Day 22—Friday 08/09 – 147.2 - Didn't get a chance to post, I was on the phone doing my worksafe BC reporting, and then it was time to go to work.
Day 23—08/10 – 147.6 - Up much earlier than planned, so my weight is higher. Having said that, I am off tomorrow, so that could mean some indulgence after work tonight. I changed my dressing over my stitches today as prescribed. I sure didn't get it on very nicely! I am wearing disposable gloves at work to keep it clean. Stitches come out on Thursday morning. I harvested my garlic with my left hand on Thursday, so I am going to make some sort of Alfredo on Sunday with a couple of loose ones.
Day 24—08/11 – 147.8 - Glorious day off today. Next Sunday I took an 8 hour shift at the long term place for extra $$, so no Sunday off next week. Going to putter today, wash the porch floor, do laundry, do some weeding etc.
Day 25—08/12 –

Thoughts at the beginning of this challenge:
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, uphill, both ways. However, each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I CAN make, no matter how big or small. Sadly, I gained a little over 6 pounds last round. I hope to turn all that back around this round. After all, here in Northern Michigan I wait a very long time each year to finally get to good weather and more outside activity. I really want to capitalize on the good weather in the summer months and increase activity and drop pounds. I’m failing miserably with this so far in 2024. Time to maximize the rest of summer and early fall with challenge #20 and make the magic happen! I am so very 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.

226.6 - Ending weight last round on 7/11/2024 before vacation.
7/11-7/25: DNW - Vacation Iceland & Norway
7/26: 229.2 / 229.0 - Gained 2.6 lbs on vacation at first weigh in. I expect some of this to be travel bloat and disappear by tomorrow but not all! I did walk most days 2-6 miles which I'm proud of! Pushed through the knee pain. And one day I actually got on the bike in the gym on the boat.
Not surprised that my weight is up. After a day of travel leaving at 3am Thursday morning from the hotel in Oslo … hour drive to the airport… flights to Paris, Detroit, Houston (airplane food on each leg of the journey and 3 bags of chips on the last flight) … landed in Houston at 6pm … picking up our dog & dinner with our son’s family at 7:30pm, another hour driving home finally home at 10:00pm Thursday night (which was 5am Friday morning Oslo time). So all in all a 26 hour travel day.
Broke my promise to myself so vacation eating plan was a fail in that I ate the bread basket every night at dinner and dessert at lunch, dinner and 4pm tea time on a 11 night cruise! Oh boy such bad habits on vacation to over come. Otherwise my eating was really healthy with small portions and no snacking. Lots of room to improve on my next cruise in October.
Now to tackle these pounds and not let them continue to slip back into the 230s.
7/27: 227.5 / 228.6 - The real weight gain from my trip is .9 lbs! Less than a pound. Shedded the bloat from the long 26 hours of travel and got my body reset to this time zone. I’ll take it and tackle that little gain before it slips away from me. 😊 Now to make progress … meaning I need to focus on WATER, exercise and journaling every bite remembering small portions pay off big dividends helping me toward my goals.
Biked 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
7/28: 226.0 / 227.8 - Back to clean living and better habits. Grocery shopping was huge since before leaving due to the hurricane electrical outage for 3-4 days we had to throw EVERYTHING out of our 2 fridge/freezers. So lots of fresh food and very few temptations or snacks in the house. DH didn’t even buy cookies so there are no sweets to add calories after dinner. Created menus and bought only what was needed though I did forget salad dressing … guess the selection balsamic my sister gave me for Christmas will due in a pinch. LOL
Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
7/29: 225.5 / 227.1 - Didn’t make strength training class since DH has Covid and I had to deal with the AC guy for our annual checkup. He was early and showed up when my class was suppose to start. So after he left I got on the bike instead.
Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80 oz
Weekly Goal: Lose any vacation pounds and ensure I’m back < 227
Actual Weight: 225.5 - BMI = 40
Challenge Weight Loss: 1.1
🎯 Returning from vacation and getting myself started back on the healthy journey was key this week. I’m happy with my focus and determination. Now to focus on no longer being labeled “morbidly” obese.
7/30: 224.8 / 226.2 - Bike 30, journaled, water 80 oz. Focusing on getting the 7 hrs recommended sleep.
7/31: 224.5 / 225.5 - Since I missed strength training Monday I’ll tune into her private YouTube channel and do a make up session. I put it off not feeling my best so probably will test for Covid later today. Skipped all exercise instead this Wednesday. First time in the red since I had not activity to burn off extra calories. 1228 cal and 70 net carbs. Felt so awfully full in the evening that I had to stretch out and go to bed early. Journaled and 80 oz water.
8/1: 224.4 / 225.0 - Feeling good this morning but still have an uncomfortably full sensation. Otherwise feel normal. Negative Covid test! Biked 30 72+ oz water. Journaled a big bowl of red beans and rice but the surprise was the 31 carbs in my store bought prepackaged salad! Roundtrip 3 hours to north part of Houston to watch my granddaughter for 2 hrs. DH is considering moving to be closer.
8/2: 224.1 / 224.5 - Today’s focus … after my exercise class … prep for the party. Buying everything for the charcuterie board I’m making for the party, bake dark chocolate brownies, an then picking up wine & special iced cookies for the party tomorrow. The other grandmother is having tea sandwiches made, buying a dip, wine, variety of sparkling waters and she hired someone to act as bartender and to keep the place picked up during the party (la-di-da but that is how she rolls in her world … the party is at her house in a very nice upscale area inside Houston).
Only did 20 min of my strength training class because I became dizzy and almost fainted. Had to lay down. Journaled. 72+ oz water.
8/3: 224.8 / 224.4 - Not at all surprised by the up tic on the scale. Lunch out with my daughter yesterday and though we split the meal I let her order … chips with spinach artichoke dip, chicken strips, French fries. Nothing healthy about it! Then I ate brownies because they made a crumbled mess out of the pan and didn’t get a clean square … probably ate 2.
Today I need to be a little more cautious in my eating! Sip & See for my new granddaughter. Myself and the other grandmother are hosting a large party of our lady friends (45-50) to meet all 3 of my grandchildren. No exercise, no journal but did drink my water. Didn’t eat anything at the party but did have a slice of brisket at my son’s and a cookie when I returned home.
8/4: 223.5 / 223.9 - Nothing planned today but the bike and painting. May get out and weed some though the heat is stifling. Way too much charcuterie and cookie leftovers in the house. DH & I could have charcuterie for lunch or dinner every day this week LOL
Bike 30 min, water definitely but not sure of the oz, no journal.
20 min strength training, not enough water and no journaling.
Weekly Goal: Obese stage 2 BMI 39.9 @ <225 No longer 🚫 morbidly obese!
Actual Weight: 223.7 - BMI 39.7
Challenge Weight Loss: 2.9
🎯 I moved out of Morbidly obese stage 3 and into obese stage 2! ✔️
Now to work my way down to obese stage 1 around 197 but I’ll first have to hit many milestones to get there.
NSV - I “slid” my cellphone into my front pocket of my pants with lots of room to spare. (Aug 2024) ✔️
8/6: 224.6 / 223.8 - Bike 30 min, no journal.
8/7: 223.4 / 223.5 - No planned exercise for Wed! Need to focus on water. Though I’m not journaling my portion control has been spot on and no time for snacking the last few days.
8/8: 223.5 / 223.4 - Bike 30 min, water, but only half journaling and way over my net carb limit of <100 due to snacking on crackers.
8/9: 224.4 / 223.5 - Strength training 40 min, water, but still no journaling.
8/10: 222.9 / 223.2 - No exercise or journaling.
8/11: 224.2 / 223.4 - No exercise or journaling.
8/12: 223.0 / 223.2 -
Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 223.0
Challenge Weight Loss: 3.6
🎯 Many pour food choices, no journaling for the entire week, exercise also thrown off since DD & grandkids stayed with us while her husband had pneumonia. Cannot let grandkids be the reason I regain the weight like 2022!
I thought last week was challenging but looking at this week I'm really worried now about not focusing on my exercise and food journal. I'm way too distracted and I can just see the numbers rising. Telling myself not to let this slip much further!!!
DD and her kids (2 years and the other one is 2 months) will be with us till Wednesday due to doctor's instructions about her husband not being around the baby while he has pneumonia.
DD starts back at work today! She had plans for the kids but the director left the daycare and they have had issues the past month after moving my granddaughter into a classroom that is understaffed. One boy is kicking, hitting, scratching and biting her daily and they did nothing. So she found a new daycare but they can't start till 19th (next Monday). So I have them at my house this week during the day as well except Wednesday when the other grandmother will watch them and I drive up the 1.5 hrs to care for my other granddaughter that is 2.5 years.
Strategy? Well I think my strength training class is out Mon and Fri. But I'll plan to try and slip onto my bike at least 4x this week.
ALSO I've got to get the eating back until control and begin journaling. That starts with me this morning entering in today's plan before they all get up. Then water ... next to me at all times!
If I look back I gained the majority of weight I lost the year the 2 grandkids were born and I was overextending myself driving to help with the babies and not doing what I needed for myself. I love the grandkids but I've got to keep focused on my health as well.
2022 was a terrible year for my health
2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022) Lost focus on myself while helping with 2 new grand babies (Jan & June); also started teaching ESL on Tues & Thurs morning and no longer went to in person Strong & Fit class … EXCUSES EXCUSES

@dawnbgethealthy - Thanks! Kemah Boardwalk is a fun spot but I ate too much at Bubba Gump's. Also we didn't get to go out on the boat since DD wanted to join us and not be left at home with the kids (2 years and the other one is 2 months). We still had fun and a long day. Beautiful weather!5 -

@looneycatblue
I am with you on the AF (alcohol free).
Started the 9 days yesterday. I have too much going on, early morning appointments before work etc. No drinks for me until potentially Tuesday August 20th.
Let us see how our weight drops by eliminating adult drinks.
@Lilylady3k do you want to join us on the experiment for a week?2 -
Hi : - )
I am Dawn.
5'2"
63 and will turn 64 during this 100
Cranbrook, BC
The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
I have gained in each of the last 6 of them!
I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.
Week 1 Goal: 146.2
Week 1 actual weight: 148.0 - Started the week at 147.2
Week 2 Goal: 147s
Week 2 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 148.2
Week 3 Goal: 146s
Week 3 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 147.6
Day 22—Friday 08/09 – 147.2 - Didn't get a chance to post, I was on the phone doing my worksafe BC reporting, and then it was time to go to work.
Day 23—08/10 – 147.6 - Up much earlier than planned, so my weight is higher. Having said that, I am off tomorrow, so that could mean some indulgence after work tonight. I changed my dressing over my stitches today as prescribed. I sure didn't get it on very nicely! I am wearing disposable gloves at work to keep it clean. Stitches come out on Thursday morning. I harvested my garlic with my left hand on Thursday, so I am going to make some sort of Alfredo on Sunday with a couple of loose ones.
Day 24—08/11 – 147.8 - Glorious day off today. Next Sunday I took an 8 hour shift at the long term place for extra $$, so no Sunday off next week. Going to putter today, wash the porch floor, do laundry, do some weeding etc.
Day 25—08/12 – 148.4 -Kind of shocked by the uptick, banner day, I have managed to stay out of the 148s since week #1. Long days ahead for me for the next 9. I need to make sure that I have nutrition at the ready.
Here are my stats from yesterday. Yes, fruits and vegetables count as carbs.

Thoughts at the beginning of this challenge:
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, uphill, both ways. However, each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I CAN make, no matter how big or small. Sadly, I gained a little over 6 pounds last round. I hope to turn all that back around this round. After all, here in Northern Michigan I wait a very long time each year to finally get to good weather and more outside activity. I really want to capitalize on the good weather in the summer months and increase activity and drop pounds. I’m failing miserably with this so far in 2024. Time to maximize the rest of summer and early fall with challenge #20 and make the magic happen! I am so very 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 24-08/11-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) Disruptions this morning with DGS so I didn’t get the weigh in before drinking water. Probably no progress though due to several glasses of sparkling wine last night. Meals, otherwise, were pretty good.
Day 25-08/12-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) My oldest daughter sent me a loaf of fresh zucchini bread made from her garden veg. I didn’t need to weigh to know that I continue to be up. My diet has been bad and we can’t outrun the fork so I just want to bury my head in the sand and stay clueless. I do usually get in a lot more movement over the weekends because my younger DD and DGS are here so hopefully that movement helped. Babysitting him keeps me on my toes! However, with my DD’s totes of snack foods and all the extra meals and snacks I need for them, (especially DGS) it is so hard to stay on track. Lots of extra cooking and meals. Gosh, how did I get through when all my own kids lived at home? Oh, that’s right, that’s when I got up to 253 pounds! I hate my personal schedule being off-kilter but it is what it is. But Gosh, I love the time with my DGS. He brings me such incredible joy!
