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.

Day 71—09/27 – 147.0 - Slowly coming back down, one week after eating Ribs, Carnitas, Enchiladas on my birthday a week ago when I gained almost 5 pounds in one day when all was said and done.
Day 72—09/28 – 146.2 - Crazy long workday, I didn't get home until 1:30am, it was Karaoke night at the bar. I didn't get to bed until 4:30am. The day is getting away from me today, I had great plans of so much I wanted to accomplish, like cutting the grass and stuff. Instead, I have to start getting ready for work in 20 minutes! Not even dressed today. Short shift tonight, tomorrow off, Monday night off from my bar job, Tuesday completely off from everything, so I will get back to eating actual dinner the next few nights.
Day 73—09/29 – 147.0 - That was short lived. I didn't get a whole lot of activity in yesterday, as planned due to my very late night. Kind of missed the window for all of my yard work since it is overcast and forecast to rain today - no grass cutting possibly. I will be home at a normal dinner time for the next 3 nights. I had dinner last night, I was just so hungry after Friday's work marathon. I feel like my body got used to not having dinner. I will pick some onions, peppers, beans and stuff and make a stir fry one of these 3 nights.
Day 74—09/30 – 148.0 - Weird to see a jump, well maybe not, very early weigh in. I was up at 4:30am today, the other night I didn't go to bed until that time! Spent the day Sunday getting lots done outside. I didn't actually eat anything all day until 7pm. I have only a 4 hour shift at the restaurant today, the bar is closed for the Stat holiday. I don't think that I will bother trying to go back to bed, I don't need to stay up late tonight. For those that are not Canadian, today is Truth and Reconciliation Day. Lots of stuff on public radio about this. Even though I wear a Kurti at the East Indian Restaurant, I will be wearing an orange shirt underneath in silent support.
Day 75—10/01 – 148.2 - Ouch. Had to go into work for an hour which kind of wrecked the flow of my day off.
Day 76—10/02 – 149.6 - great fresh dinner with goodies from my garden
Day 77—10/03 – 149.6 - Actual dinner 5 nights in a row. I suppose that I need to get back to having dinner only 2 nights per week. Minus 2c this morning, tomatoes and peppers are covered, but I hope that they are okay! No time to harvest for the next couple of days, and by then the weather is supposed to warm back up. I don't even have time to go and have a peek, they will turn to mush when it warms up if they did get frozen. It would not be good to lose my crops at this late stage. Feeling stuffed up this morning, took some echinacea since one of the girls at work has a cold.
Week 11 Goal: 144.6

Week 12 Goal:
Week 12 actual weight:
Started the 100 at 147.21 -
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 60 80.2, 19 min running, 11 min walking
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".

Playing catch-up again... eating & drinking has been all over the place, with very little exercise. Busy with work, anniversary, birthdays, short trips... it's been fun but now time to get back to working on healthy habits!

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.
8/5: 223.7 / 223.7 - I successfully made my goal this week!!!
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 - Pre-journaled my food plan. Slight change in food plan for lunch. No exercise … forgot how time consuming a 2 month old is!
Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 223.0
Challenge Weight Loss: xx
🎯 Many poor 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!
8/13: 223.3 / 223.1 - No exercise, no journaling
8/14: 223.8 / 223.2 - Travel day round trip to granddaughter’s ~3 hrs and caring for her today. Bad food choices, no journaling, no exercise, lacked water.
8/15: 225.1 / 223.7 - Bike 30, no journal and lacked water. I have today all to myself … so plenty of time to work on my own goals, exercise and make great decisions!
8/16: 223.5 / 223.6 - Thought that spike might have been temporary. Glad to see the number come back down! Baby duty today for my 2 month old. She starts daycare on Monday. So I’m planning to enjoy all the snuggles I can get though I will miss my strength training class. No exercise or journaling and still need to work on water. But my meals were barely there … like I took some turkey deli meat and that was it for lunch. Not one single snack all day!
8/17: 222.8 / 223.4 - Good the trend is going back down! Tonight I babysit but today is mine for exercise and painting. Bike 30 min and drank more water.
8/18: 222.3 / 223.0 - Today roundtrip car trip to my son’s to help unload and move furniture they bought. My goal is to bike this morning since we don’t have to be there until noon. DH & I decided to eat at home for both lunch and dinner and it makes a huge difference. No snacking. 30 min bike! 80+ oz water.
8/19: 220.5 / 222.1 - WOW! Controlling what I put in my body makes a huge difference … something I need to remember. Opportunity to eat out before and after our roundtrip to my son’s home to help move furniture. Instead of lunch out for burgers & fries at a new place DH & I made open faced sandwich and a few olives for salty. Returning from my son’s we almost went to an Italian restaurant but came home cooked a steak and romaine lettuce on the grill with a homemade lemon parmesan thyme dressing.
📚 tonight + strength training today 40 min. AF ✔️
Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 220.5 - BMI 39.1
Challenge Weight Loss: 6
🎯 Getting back on the bike, water and watching what I eat always pays off focusing Thurs-Sun. I need to remember this when my schedule goes crazy like it did in the earlier part of the week! I was able to bounce back. Aug 10 last Saturday I was in the 222 range but then let life happen and it slipped away. The old me would have avoided the scale at all cost after Wed after a really bad eating day and travel. But I did the daily stepping on registered it and moved on. Yeah me! It was mostly temporary due to time in a car and eating out processed food / sodium … so I had hoped I could reel it back in and I did. Ignoring things never got me anywhere. Got back down again not letting my weekend dictate slacking off. Full steam ahead started on Thursday and it paid off for my weekly weigh in. Now to not let up or slip up! I have dinner with book club ladies Monday and Wednesday night at restaurants this next week.
8/20: 220.9 / 221.6 - Okay into the stretch shooting for the teens! Bike 30 min, water 80 oz. ✔️
8/21: 221.3 / 221.3 - Today will be challenging. Driving to care for my granddaughter. Eating out lunch and dinner. Leaving at 9am returning at 9pm. Mexican food and chips temptation at bookclub. 📚 Dined out at Mexican restaurant for both lunch and& dinner. Tried to keep my portions down and not eat everything on my plate and counted chips. Did not order any rice, beans, etc and ate only 2 of 3 enchiladas at lunch and half order of quesadillas at dinner. AF. No exercise Wednesday but lots of water. ✔️
8/22: 220.8 / 220.9 - Prep day for procedure only clear liquids which thank goodness includes black coffee, tea, chicken broth. Alcohol Free (AF)! Still feeling full from all the chicken enchiladas and chicken quesadillas yesterday. Met with design team on remodeling our downstairs. Next week we meet with the contractors and appliance people. Lunch out with DD & DH. While they ate I sipped on my chicken broth in a Yeti cup that kept it warm for the trip and more water. No exercise but plenty of water.✔️
8/23: 219.3 / 220.3 - Lacking sleep. This is definitely not a diet to lose weight!!! Love that I touched the teens but positive it is a temporary loss. Scheduled Colonoscopy & Endoscopy. Results are fine. No exercise, lots of water, regular meals. Slept most of the afternoon. ✔️
8/24: 223.4 / 221.0 - I knew it would be up from yesterday’s low but this is ridiculous! Still resting no exercise, lots of water. Not snacking and meals have not been that bad but did indulge in ice cream after dinner when watching a movie.
8/25: 222.0 / 221.2 - Cannot believe how off kilter I am on the scale … you would think after a colonoscopy the numbers would be down. Dinner at my son’s cancelled since DIL is sick. Bike 30 min.
8/26: 221.8 / 221.4 - Glad the number is coming back down but disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. Driving 2+ hr to pick up my granddaughter so she can spend the days and nights here so my son can work and my DIL can recover from fever, upper respiratory infection, etc … she needs rest, fluids, antibiotics. Walked outside 1/4 mile with stroller.✔️
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Glass of water before coffee ✔️
Actual Weight: 221.8
GAINED this week: 1.3
Challenge Weight Loss: 4.8
🎯 Disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. I didn’t snack but were my portions larger than I thought? Need to focus on journaling every bite again.
8/27: 220.2 / 220.9 - Finally back down to 220 again. Maybe my body has finally rid itself of all the bloat after the colonoscopy. Now to continue and break through the 220s! Granddaughter duty today. No exercise. Did not journal my food at all … not one single bite.
8/28: 220.5 / 220.8 - Okay today focus! Not traveling today and no granddaughter duty since my son said he would stay home and work and care for her so I don’t have to make the drive again. Bike 30 min, lacked water and still not journaling.
8/29: 221.1 / 220.7 - No excuses today! Bike 30 min
8/30: 220.3 / 220.5 - Plans to bike, menu plan, grocery shop, drink more water! No bike. UTI so meds and water!
8/31: 219.7 / 220.1 - Plans to bike … and today I will just do it! Plenty of water in my plan as well. 2nd time seeing 219.x! Can I keep the scale from slipping up again into the 220s and soon mark it off as a scale victory? To check it off my list I need to see it multiple days in a row … so here we got trying to hold on to 219 through the weekend! Biked 30 min. Snacking go to me for the first time in a while during the afternoon.
9/1: 220.1 / 220.0 - Bounced back into the 220s. Darn! Today we are having family over for fajitas. No exercise except chasing a toddler. Too much food!
9/2: 220.8 / 220.1 - I need the brownies my sister brought yesterday out of the house! I ate 3 yesterday. Today my goal is not even a nibble. Ate them anyway and they are still not gone! 30 min on bike. Still not journaling.
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Journal every bite! ✔️ Notice that I didn’t even attempt this habit once this past week. Really becoming a problem.
Actual Weight: 220.8
Challenge Weight Loss: 5.8
🎯 Wasn’t able to hold on to the 219.x after all. I need more discipline in my life.
9/3: 220.6 / 220.2 - No art class today. DH started auditing graduate level Math Economics classes at Rice Univ on Tues & Thurs (w/ labs Tues night & Friday day). So I have plenty of time to myself today for exercise, weeding, reading and painting. Bike 30 min. ✔️
9/4: 221.7 / 220.6 - Wrong direction! ✔️Drive to babysit granddaughter and birthday celebration dinner for my sister. No exercise.
9/5: 221.0 / 220.7 - Wrong direction! ✔️ Plans to bike today! Biked 30 min.

9/7: DNW

Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Water before coffee ✔️
Actual Weight: 221.7
Gained this week: .9
Challenge Weight Loss: 4.9
🎯 I really need to get serious if I want to hit 215 before my birthday at the end of October. I need to get back to journaling every bite. If I don’t get one other thing right this week it needs to be that.
9/10: 220.5 / 221.6 - Busy day ahead … Learn English Ministry volunteer teaching for adults in the community starts back up for today. I teach level 2 out of 4 levels. Then art class after lunch and a sorority alumni craft party this evening in town. Journaled yesterday for the first time in forever! Plans to do that again today No exercise. Avoided journaling. Snacked in the afternoon when I was not really hungry, then dinner out with DH and couldn’t finish my real meal, skipped the food at my evening meeting.
9/11: 220.7 / 221.3 - No excuses today. Need to both exercise and journal. Bike 30. Did not journal. Baked cookies instead.
9/12: 220.7 / 221.1 - Today ESL class, garden, and bike. Talked to contractor yesterday about remodeling entire downstairs using my daughter’s plans ... she's a professional interior designer. Biked 30 min. Did not journal.
9/13: 220.2 / 220.8 - Too many homemade cookies Wed and Thurs with no journaling. Today my goal is to say NO to the cookies! Biked 30 mins.
9/14: 221.7 / 221.0 - Where oh where is my focus? Biked 20 min
9/15: 222.0 / 221.3 - Lost all incentive and let things go a little too far. Bike 20 min
9/16: 221.7 / 221.4 - Well this week has been a disappointment. Bike 30 min
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Journal every bite! ✔️
Actual Weight: 221.7
No Loss or Gain this week
Challenge Weight Loss: 4.9
🎯 I really need to pull myself together. My calendar had a reminder this morning that I wanted to be under 220 by this date. I set up that reminder back in July. I’ve been so close and under a couple of times yet just still hanging out in the low 20s.
9/17: 222.1 / 221.7 - Need to stop it right here from going up up up. No exercise.
9/18: 222.1 / 221.5 - Yesterday … Snacking in the afternoon … I was feeling empty and just couldn’t stop basically having a second lunch of a half sandwich around 3pm. Where did this bottomless pit feeling come from? Healthy salmon dinner around 6pm then stayed up till 11pm not snacking at all.
9/19: 222.8 / 221.5 - Bike 20 min
9/20: 222.0 / 222.0 - Bike 20 min
9/21: 221.3 / 221.9 - Bike 20 min
9/22: 220.6 / 221.5 - Bike 20 min
9/23: 219.0 / 221.5 - Right direction and a surprise! I know I did much better with my food over the weekend and it shows. I’ve hit 219.x twice this summer and couldn’t hold on to claim bye bye to the 220s. So my goal this week is to keep it under 220 and work on the 14 day trend to come down as well. Bike 20 min
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 219.0
Challenge Weight Loss: 7.6
🎯 Out of control week followed up by a great weekend. Seem to be back in the 219-220 area again like early September / late August. I thought I had wasted all my September hanging out at 221-222 in recent times. Glad to see the drop. Now to keep it under 220!!
9/24: 219.5 / 220.2 - Held 219.x 2 days in a row! Yeah!!! No exercise really busy day teaching ESL, art class and helping my daughter with the babies while her husband is out of town.
🎯Weigh less than DH: He is up to 222 so I’m under him this morning. (Sept 2024) ✔️
9/25: 220.0 / 220.0 - Lost it … darn pizza and popcorn! My trend is getting closer to being under 220 No excuses today!
9/26: 219.9 / 219.9 - Back under 220 but this time so is my 14 day trend!! Spent yesterday cleaning out my closet of everything to small or big. Tossed what I didn’t like. Put away in bin anything that didn’t fit that I really like so that later I can shop there first I believe 10 more pounds and I’ll be looking through the bin since most fit but was either too tight across the bust or hips. Now my closet has much fewer options but I can wear everything! I love how decluttered the closet is now!!
9/27: 219.0 / 219..5 - Today I need to get back on the bike. I’ve noticed that I’ve pushed it off almost everyday this week! Baked double batch of pumpkin cookies and only at 2 I call that a win. Bike 20 min.
9/28: 218.9 / 219.2 - Talked to another contractor yesterday and thinking this might work. Yesterday I started cleaning out my kitchen cabinets and drawers … to toss and give away. Bike 20 min
9/29: 217.9 / 218.7 - Finally seeing the drops. This low is probably because I slept in til 7:30am instead of weighing in at 4am. LOL Not snacking and portion control seem to be working. Bike 20 min
9/30: 218.0 / 218.4 - I still have lots of homemade cookies in the house but I’ve limited myself. Looking forward to another good week.
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens and keep it under 220 … 220's
Actual Weight: 218.0
Challenge Weight Loss: 8.6
🎯 Early August I set my goal to break 220 and 8 weeks later I did it! Did it take a long time with many ups and downs … of course. Am I glad I didn’t quit and hang in the towel … YES! Now to strive for 215 which is my goal for this challenge and my birthday at the end of October!
10/1: 218.0 / 218.1 - No exercise
10/2: 218.7 / 218.1 - Up earlier which is probably the reason for the uptick on the scale. Not worried yet. Need to drink more water though since I woke up thirsty.
10/3: 219.1 / 218.3 - No exercise. Numbers are going up again … wrong direction!
10/4: 219.3 / 218.5 - Today no excuses. Need to get back down to 218 or even 217!!! Just do it

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!

Missed the bus at the beginning of the year so I am trying to readjust schedule. Boy is it ever tough trying to get long sleeves and jackets on him with that cast on his arm! This cooler weather is calling for warmer clothing for sure. Last Friday my DD brought in ice cream since it was payday. I hope she will keep her money in her pocket this week. It’s not likely though. Trying to stay strong! Have a good weekend everyone!

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 - Start weight of the previous 100
Week 1 actual weight: 148.0 - Started the week at 147.2

Day 78—10/04 — 147.8 - Well, I went to work at my first job yesterday morning and within an hour and a half it hit me like a ton of bricks. Called around and got someone to come in for me and called my second job to say that I was sick and couldn't come in. Nose running like crazy, sore jaw, face, joints. I took 2 Covid tests even though there are no new ones on the market anymore and I had to use expired ones. So much to be done around here with bonus time off of work, but no energy whatsoever. I have mostly been sleeping. Neo Citran dries things up pretty well.

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.
8/5: 223.7 / 223.7 - I successfully made my goal this week!!!
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 - Pre-journaled my food plan. Slight change in food plan for lunch. No exercise … forgot how time consuming a 2 month old is!
Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 223.0
Challenge Weight Loss: xx
🎯 Many poor 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!
8/13: 223.3 / 223.1 - No exercise, no journaling
8/14: 223.8 / 223.2 - Travel day round trip to granddaughter’s ~3 hrs and caring for her today. Bad food choices, no journaling, no exercise, lacked water.
8/15: 225.1 / 223.7 - Bike 30, no journal and lacked water. I have today all to myself … so plenty of time to work on my own goals, exercise and make great decisions!
8/16: 223.5 / 223.6 - Thought that spike might have been temporary. Glad to see the number come back down! Baby duty today for my 2 month old. She starts daycare on Monday. So I’m planning to enjoy all the snuggles I can get though I will miss my strength training class. No exercise or journaling and still need to work on water. But my meals were barely there … like I took some turkey deli meat and that was it for lunch. Not one single snack all day!
8/17: 222.8 / 223.4 - Good the trend is going back down! Tonight I babysit but today is mine for exercise and painting. Bike 30 min and drank more water.
8/18: 222.3 / 223.0 - Today roundtrip car trip to my son’s to help unload and move furniture they bought. My goal is to bike this morning since we don’t have to be there until noon. DH & I decided to eat at home for both lunch and dinner and it makes a huge difference. No snacking. 30 min bike! 80+ oz water.
8/19: 220.5 / 222.1 - WOW! Controlling what I put in my body makes a huge difference … something I need to remember. Opportunity to eat out before and after our roundtrip to my son’s home to help move furniture. Instead of lunch out for burgers & fries at a new place DH & I made open faced sandwich and a few olives for salty. Returning from my son’s we almost went to an Italian restaurant but came home cooked a steak and romaine lettuce on the grill with a homemade lemon parmesan thyme dressing.
📚 tonight + strength training today 40 min. AF ✔️
Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 220.5 - BMI 39.1
Challenge Weight Loss: 6
🎯 Getting back on the bike, water and watching what I eat always pays off focusing Thurs-Sun. I need to remember this when my schedule goes crazy like it did in the earlier part of the week! I was able to bounce back. Aug 10 last Saturday I was in the 222 range but then let life happen and it slipped away. The old me would have avoided the scale at all cost after Wed after a really bad eating day and travel. But I did the daily stepping on registered it and moved on. Yeah me! It was mostly temporary due to time in a car and eating out processed food / sodium … so I had hoped I could reel it back in and I did. Ignoring things never got me anywhere. Got back down again not letting my weekend dictate slacking off. Full steam ahead started on Thursday and it paid off for my weekly weigh in. Now to not let up or slip up! I have dinner with book club ladies Monday and Wednesday night at restaurants this next week.
8/20: 220.9 / 221.6 - Okay into the stretch shooting for the teens! Bike 30 min, water 80 oz. ✔️
8/21: 221.3 / 221.3 - Today will be challenging. Driving to care for my granddaughter. Eating out lunch and dinner. Leaving at 9am returning at 9pm. Mexican food and chips temptation at bookclub. 📚 Dined out at Mexican restaurant for both lunch and& dinner. Tried to keep my portions down and not eat everything on my plate and counted chips. Did not order any rice, beans, etc and ate only 2 of 3 enchiladas at lunch and half order of quesadillas at dinner. AF. No exercise Wednesday but lots of water. ✔️
8/22: 220.8 / 220.9 - Prep day for procedure only clear liquids which thank goodness includes black coffee, tea, chicken broth. Alcohol Free (AF)! Still feeling full from all the chicken enchiladas and chicken quesadillas yesterday. Met with design team on remodeling our downstairs. Next week we meet with the contractors and appliance people. Lunch out with DD & DH. While they ate I sipped on my chicken broth in a Yeti cup that kept it warm for the trip and more water. No exercise but plenty of water.✔️
8/23: 219.3 / 220.3 - Lacking sleep. This is definitely not a diet to lose weight!!! Love that I touched the teens but positive it is a temporary loss. Scheduled Colonoscopy & Endoscopy. Results are fine. No exercise, lots of water, regular meals. Slept most of the afternoon. ✔️
8/24: 223.4 / 221.0 - I knew it would be up from yesterday’s low but this is ridiculous! Still resting no exercise, lots of water. Not snacking and meals have not been that bad but did indulge in ice cream after dinner when watching a movie.
8/25: 222.0 / 221.2 - Cannot believe how off kilter I am on the scale … you would think after a colonoscopy the numbers would be down. Dinner at my son’s cancelled since DIL is sick. Bike 30 min.
8/26: 221.8 / 221.4 - Glad the number is coming back down but disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. Driving 2+ hr to pick up my granddaughter so she can spend the days and nights here so my son can work and my DIL can recover from fever, upper respiratory infection, etc … she needs rest, fluids, antibiotics. Walked outside 1/4 mile with stroller.✔️
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Glass of water before coffee ✔️
Actual Weight: 221.8
GAINED this week: 1.3
Challenge Weight Loss: 4.8
🎯 Disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. I didn’t snack but were my portions larger than I thought? Need to focus on journaling every bite again.
8/27: 220.2 / 220.9 - Finally back down to 220 again. Maybe my body has finally rid itself of all the bloat after the colonoscopy. Now to continue and break through the 220s! Granddaughter duty today. No exercise. Did not journal my food at all … not one single bite.
8/28: 220.5 / 220.8 - Okay today focus! Not traveling today and no granddaughter duty since my son said he would stay home and work and care for her so I don’t have to make the drive again. Bike 30 min, lacked water and still not journaling.
8/29: 221.1 / 220.7 - No excuses today! Bike 30 min
8/30: 220.3 / 220.5 - Plans to bike, menu plan, grocery shop, drink more water! No bike. UTI so meds and water!
8/31: 219.7 / 220.1 - Plans to bike … and today I will just do it! Plenty of water in my plan as well. 2nd time seeing 219.x! Can I keep the scale from slipping up again into the 220s and soon mark it off as a scale victory? To check it off my list I need to see it multiple days in a row … so here we got trying to hold on to 219 through the weekend! Biked 30 min. Snacking go to me for the first time in a while during the afternoon.
9/1: 220.1 / 220.0 - Bounced back into the 220s. Darn! Today we are having family over for fajitas. No exercise except chasing a toddler. Too much food!
9/2: 220.8 / 220.1 - I need the brownies my sister brought yesterday out of the house! I ate 3 yesterday. Today my goal is not even a nibble. Ate them anyway and they are still not gone! 30 min on bike. Still not journaling.
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's

Actual Weight: 220.8
Challenge Weight Loss: 5.8
🎯 Wasn’t able to hold on to the 219.x after all. I need more discipline in my life.
9/3: 220.6 / 220.2 - No art class today. DH started auditing graduate level Math Economics classes at Rice Univ on Tues & Thurs (w/ labs Tues night & Friday day). So I have plenty of time to myself today for exercise, weeding, reading and painting. Bike 30 min. ✔️
9/4: 221.7 / 220.6 - Wrong direction! ✔️Drive to babysit granddaughter and birthday celebration dinner for my sister. No exercise.
9/5: 221.0 / 220.7 - Wrong direction! ✔️ Plans to bike today! Biked 30 min.

🎯 I really need to get serious if I want to hit 215 before my birthday at the end of October. I need to get back to journaling every bite. If I don’t get one other thing right this week it needs to be that.
9/10: 220.5 / 221.6 - Busy day ahead … Learn English Ministry volunteer teaching for adults in the community starts back up for today. I teach level 2 out of 4 levels. Then art class after lunch and a sorority alumni craft party this evening in town. Journaled yesterday for the first time in forever! Plans to do that again today No exercise. Avoided journaling. Snacked in the afternoon when I was not really hungry, then dinner out with DH and couldn’t finish my real meal, skipped the food at my evening meeting.
9/11: 220.7 / 221.3 - No excuses today. Need to both exercise and journal. Bike 30. Did not journal. Baked cookies instead.
9/12: 220.7 / 221.1 - Today ESL class, garden, and bike. Talked to contractor yesterday about remodeling entire downstairs using my daughter’s plans ... she's a professional interior designer. Biked 30 min. Did not journal.
9/13: 220.2 / 220.8 - Too many homemade cookies Wed and Thurs with no journaling. Today my goal is to say NO to the cookies! Biked 30 mins.

No Loss or Gain this week
Challenge Weight Loss: 4.9
🎯 I really need to pull myself together. My calendar had a reminder this morning that I wanted to be under 220 by this date. I set up that reminder back in July. I’ve been so close and under a couple of times yet just still hanging out in the low 20s.
9/17: 222.1 / 221.7 - Need to stop it right here from going up up up. No exercise.
9/18: 222.1 / 221.5 - Yesterday … Snacking in the afternoon … I was feeling empty and just couldn’t stop basically having a second lunch of a half sandwich around 3pm. Where did this bottomless pit feeling come from? Healthy salmon dinner around 6pm then stayed up till 11pm not snacking at all.
9/19: 222.8 / 221.5 - Bike 20 min
9/20: 222.0 / 222.0 - Bike 20 min

9/23: 219.0 / 221.5 - Right direction and a surprise! I know I did much better with my food over the weekend and it shows. I’ve hit 219.x twice this summer and couldn’t hold on to claim bye bye to the 220s. So my goal this week is to keep it under 220 and work on the 14 day trend to come down as well. Bike 20 min
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
Actual Weight: 219.0
Challenge Weight Loss: 7.6
🎯 Out of control week followed up by a great weekend. Seem to be back in the 219-220 area again like early September / late August. I thought I had wasted all my September hanging out at 221-222 in recent times. Glad to see the drop. Now to keep it under 220!!
9/24: 219.5 / 220.2 - Held 219.x 2 days in a row! Yeah!!! No exercise really busy day teaching ESL, art class and helping my daughter with the babies while her husband is out of town.
🎯Weigh less than DH: He is up to 222 so I’m under him this morning. (Sept 2024) ✔️
9/25: 220.0 / 220.0 - Lost it … darn pizza and popcorn! My trend is getting closer to being under 220 No excuses today!
9/26: 219.9 / 219.9 - Back under 220 but this time so is my 14 day trend!! Spent yesterday cleaning out my closet of everything to small or big. Tossed what I didn’t like. Put away in bin anything that didn’t fit that I really like so that later I can shop there first I believe 10 more pounds and I’ll be looking through the bin since most fit but was either too tight across the bust or hips. Now my closet has much fewer options but I can wear everything! I love how decluttered the closet is now!!
9/27: 219.0 / 219..5 - Today I need to get back on the bike. I’ve noticed that I’ve pushed it off almost everyday this week! Baked double batch of pumpkin cookies and only at 2 I call that a win. Bike 20 min.
9/28: 218.9 / 219.2 - Talked to another contractor yesterday and thinking this might work. Yesterday I started cleaning out my kitchen cabinets and drawers … to toss and give away. Bike 20 min
9/29: 217.9 / 218.7 - Finally seeing the drops. This low is probably because I slept in til 7:30am instead of weighing in at 4am. LOL Not snacking and portion control seem to be working. Bike 20 min
9/30: 218.0 / 218.4 - I still have lots of homemade cookies in the house but I’ve limited myself. Looking forward to another good week.
Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens and keep it under 220 … 220's
Actual Weight: 218.0
Challenge Weight Loss: 8.6
🎯 Early August I set my goal to break 220 and 8 weeks later I did it! Did it take a long time with many ups and downs … of course. Am I glad I didn’t quit and hang in the towel … YES! Now to strive for 215 which is my goal for this challenge and my birthday at the end of October!
10/1: 218.0 / 218.1 - No exercise
10/2: 218.7 / 218.1 - Up earlier which is probably the reason for the uptick on the scale. Not worried yet. Need to drink more water though since I woke up thirsty.
10/3: 219.1 / 218.3 - No exercise. Numbers are going up again … wrong direction!
10/4: 219.3 / 218.5 - Today no excuses. Need to get back down to 218 or even 217!!! Just do it. Bike 20 min
10/5: 217.8 / 218.3 - Need to step away from snacking on crackers obviously since I dropped when I don't eat them.

Day 78—10/04 , 168.2
Day 79—10/05 168.4, that's fine. Goal for this week is a mental one "The power of a positive no" my boss has told me I can't do overtime, after I had done it, when it was ok and expected last term. "Then you should have told me you had changed before I did it" She's now covering some of my shift as I refuse to just let it be forgotten about "We are all expected to pull together" probably easier to say to someone on minimum wage whilst you are getting 70k a year. Then has the cheek to ask me if I can do some extra hours but as a volunteer "Otherwise the children can't go on their trip" Well tough, more parents need to help out then. Yes I'm grumpy!

That is ridiculous (and illegal) to ask you to work for free!!
I hope that you got time and a half for all of those overtime hours that you worked.
Stay strong, she is out of line.3 -
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.

Day 78—10/04 — 147.8 - Well, I went to work at my first job yesterday morning and within an hour and a half it hit me like a ton of bricks. Called around and got someone to come in for me and called my second job to say that I was sick and couldn't come in. Nose running like crazy, sore jaw, face, joints. I took 2 Covid tests even though there are no new ones on the market anymore and I had to use expired ones. So much to be done around here with bonus time off of work, but no energy whatsoever. I have mostly been sleeping. Neo Citran dries things up pretty well.
Day 79—10/05 — 147.2 - Tested positive for Covid 4 times now. I actually got dressed and went to Walmart pharmacy for more Sinutab and Neo Citran and picked up a pack of tests. My neighbour got me one also. They are expired by a couple of months, but the ones that I had expired in 2023. I think that they are not issuing them anymore. Covid is going around the town and I work with the public at both of my jobs. No energy yesterday even for one Fitness Marshall song. I know intellectually that it would help speed my healing, I will try today. My jaw is so sore, face, head, joints.

@dawnbgethealthy Speedy recovery to you Dawn. It seems to always hit everyone just after travel! In the US they have extended the expiration dates on the free tests the government were sending us. They said they are still safe to use and considered accurate. I'm not sure about 2023 ones. They have just recently opened up free ones again in the US (4 free tests). If you know someone who has your address and can order you some and send them to you to hold onto for the future, it might not be a bad idea.
I hope you will feel better soon. It sounds horrible!1 -

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 78-10/04-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) It’s no-weigh Friday for me. I was up extra early as the bus for DGS comes even earlier than last year. Missed the bus at the beginning of the year so I am trying to readjust schedule. Boy is it ever tough trying to get long sleeves and jackets on him with that cast on his arm! This cooler weather is calling for warmer clothing for sure. Last Friday my DD brought in ice cream since it was payday. I hope she will keep her money in her pocket this week. It’s not likely though. Trying to stay strong! Have a good weekend everyone!
Day 79-10/05-193.6-(Trend weight 193.6) Wow what a busy Saturday! I didn’t get a chance to post until now but I did remember to weigh in this morning which showed me a smidgen up. I traveled out of town today with my 5 yr old and 6 yr old DGS’s to see Wild Robot at the movies. It was a very good movie and the boys really enjoyed it. They are cousins and it’s always nice when they can spend some time together as they live in two different counties. Breakfast was at home and simple. Linner was out and above my normal limits. I expect the scale will be up tomorrow from fluid and extra calories too.

@dawnbgethealthy Ugh. That's awful. Hope you are on the mend soon.
@noynoyavery Oh my. No way would I volunteer to work for free. I hope you get paid for that overtime. That's crazy.
@deepwoodslady It is crazy to see how wild the swings can be on the scale from fluid. One day could be three pounds. I am currently up from high sodium dinners a few nights. I know it will go back down, but it is not fun to see on the scale.1 -

Day 84—10/10
Week 12 actual weight:2 -
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 60 80.2, 19 min running, 11 min walking
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".

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 79-10/05-193.6-(Trend weight 193.6) Wow what a busy Saturday! I didn’t get a chance to post until now but I did remember to weigh in this morning which showed me a smidgen up. I traveled out of town today with my 5 yr old and 6 yr old DGS’s to see Wild Robot at the movies. It was a very good movie and the boys really enjoyed it. They are cousins and it’s always nice when they can spend some time together as they live in two different counties. Breakfast was at home and simple. Linner was out and above my normal limits. I expect the scale will be up tomorrow from fluid and extra calories too.
Day 80-10/06-193.8-(Trend weight 193.8) I really expected the weight to have shown more than a 0.2 increase after yesterday’s food and snack filled outing. I can only attribute it to the fact that I was up all night shedding water for no apparent reason. It was totally inconvenient considering our power was out from about 11:30 pm until 4:00 am during which time I couldn’t sleep due to not having my C-pap machine on or my fan. Tired today since the cat had NO PROBLEM sleeping during the outage and woke me up earlier than I would have liked for her morning treat. Since the contractor wakes me up early everyday Mon-Fri, I will look forward to sleep next Friday night and Sat morn IF my DGS lets me. He did NOT this week! Ugh. Isn’t sleep supposed to be good for weight loss? UGH…I feel like I’m fighting a losing battle. I’ll just have to focus on the fact that I deserved more weight gain and caught a rare break on that front.

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!

Day 78—10/04 — 147.8 - Well, I went to work at my first job yesterday morning and within an hour and a half it hit me like a ton of bricks. Called around and got someone to come in for me and called my second job to say that I was sick and couldn't come in. Nose running like crazy, sore jaw, face, joints. I took 2 Covid tests even though there are no new ones on the market anymore and I had to use expired ones. So much to be done around here with bonus time off of work, but no energy whatsoever. I have mostly been sleeping. Neo Citran dries things up pretty well.
Day 79—10/05 — 147.2 - Tested positive for Covid 4 times now. I actually got dressed and went to Walmart pharmacy for more Sinutab and Neo Citran and picked up a pack of tests. My neighbour got me one also. They are expired by a couple of months, but the ones that I had expired in 2023. I think that they are not issuing them anymore. Covid is going around the town and I work with the public at both of my jobs. No energy yesterday even for one Fitness Marshall song. I know intellectually that it would help speed my healing, I will try today. My jaw is so sore, face, head, joints.
Day 80—10/06 — 147.2 - Day 4 of Covid. Yesterday afternoon I actually felt pretty good, today I feel worse. The sign on those Covid tests that they give out free at Walmart said good until December 2024 even though they are dated July 2024. I knew that the old ones that I had weren't accurate, I had Covid once before and it was just like this. During my window of feeling good yesterday afternoon I got out in the garden and got a bunch done. The fresh air was good. We had tickets to a play "Pippin" matinee today, very sad that I can't go, it is community theatre and I know people in it. Kind of out of it today. Drinking coffee though, so maybe I will get a bit of pep to putter around here or possibly get out into the garden later as I self-isolate. Thank y'all for your well wishes : - )

Week 12 actual weight:2 -
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 60 80.2, 19 min running, 11 min walking
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".

Day 78—10/04 — 139.9 lb Day 2 w/o sugar
Day 79—10/05 — 140.1 lb. Giving up sugar is hard when it's all pervasive.....
Day 80—10/06 — 141 lb.
Day 81—10/07 — 140.5 lb. Day 1 No Sugar. Been reading about the history of sugar. It was first refined in India about 4000 years ago, and there are some very old passages in the Vedic Scriptures where doctors describe the results of tooth decay, diabetes and obesity - of course, then only the rich could afford sugar and doctors, or be able to read. It was scarce in Europe until the Americas were discovered, and then the first crop to be transplanted was sugar - coffee and cotton came soon after, and then, of course, the demand for slaves to work the plantations lead to the Transatlantic slave trade. That is very sobering, to think of all those poor people's lives and how horribly they were treated - in order for rich people to enjoy cakes and cookies. Nowadays, I should think of all the land unnecessarily dedicated to growing sugar - and coffee- which could be used to grow real, healthy food in poor counties.
