I’m Teri
Age 61, 5’4”
Challenge Starting Weight: 150.3 lbs (highest weight ever!)
Ultimate Goal Weight: 135
Challenge Goal Weight: 146.3lbs (starting Challenge 64 days in)
Late to the game but I need to try this again. I’ve gained a bit since I quit the last 100-day challenge (#18 I think), my knees hurt, I’m on meds for high cholesterol, I’m behind on paperwork, and my home is as cluttered and disorganized as it’s ever been. I know it’s all connected. I need to start making changes and taking accountability again. Consistency is not my strong suit but I refuse to quit. 😇Day 64 12/29 – 150.3 I’m sure my body is still recovering from the last few weeks of unhealthy eating and only sporadic exercise. Today was the first low carb/low refined sugar day in a very long time. High sodium dinner tho. Prepped 5 days of overnight oats to help me stay on track. I also did a 50-min. Peloton work-out. Off to somewhat of a good start. But it’s only day 1 for me.
Day 65 12/30 – 148.7 (- 1.6) Tried to stay on track today. TRIED. Oh well. Tomorrow is our NYE celebration. Enough said.
Day 66 12/31 – 148.9 (+ .2) Happy New Year everyone! Not surprised by my weight this morning, and expect the same for the next few days while my body processes all the alcohol and carbs from celebrating. I’m so looking forward to a great 2025.
Day 67 01/01 – 150 (+ 1.1) Relaxing day watching some college football, visiting with family, eating leftovers, including lots of desserts.
Day 68 01/02 – 151.4 (+ 1.4) Determined to be back on track today after 4 days of complete indulgence, alcohol included. Exercise might be a challenge as my knee still hurts, but I will certainly try to get some movement in. It’s also the last day with my DD who returns to her home tomorrow. Sure going to miss her.
Day 69 01/03 – 150.3 (-1.1) Finally, a little decrease. Don’t think I’ll make my goal weight tomorrow tho, but that’s ok. We’re only 3 days into the new year. Couldn’t resist a donut from Krispy Kreme last night. My leg extension machine arrived yesterday. I hope this helps to strengthen my knees and reduce knee pain.
Day 70 01/04 – 148.1 (-2.2) I met my not so ambitious goal weight this week. Most likely just water and inflammation (not fat), but it’s still encouraging.
Week 10 Goal 148.3
Week 10 actual weight: 148.1
Total Challenge gain/loss to date (week 10): ↓ 2.2
Week 11
Day 71 01/05 – 149.5 (+ 1.4) Out with friends last night. Had a burger w/ fries and 1 vodka on the rocks which has no sugar or carbs. I thought I kept it pretty much under control. Still no exercise.
Day 72 01/06 – 149.2 (- .3) Much needed rain in Maui this morning as there was a small brush fire in my neighborhood yesterday. Hopefully, anything left smoldering is now totally put out. And I almost stayed on track foodwise yesterday, but I gave in to a salty / carb craving late last night.
Day 73 01/07 – 148 0 (- 1.2) Could have done better with what I ate yesterday. It’s always the night-time hunger that ruins it. I just had to have that pumpkin muffin after dinner. Why? I do have healthier options to choose from. Ugh! But I did manage to get an hour of exercise in so I’m happy about that.
Day 74 01/08 – 147.2 (- .8) Slowly edging away from the 150 mark. I’m guessing I’m getting rid of water retention from the overeating & junk food consumed over the Holidays. Eating was on point yesterday. Chose a healthier nighttime snack and ended it there. Did some pilates & core exercises, then a good stretch session which always makes me feel good. Wish everyday could be like yesterday.
Day 75 01/09 – 146.9 (- .3) Hmmm… not sure I trust this number. Ate well until after dinner, as usual. I mean it wasn’t that bad but I could have done without the muffin. Got an hour of workout in. Knee is hurting this morning.
Day 76 01/10 – 148.2 (+ 1.3) Crazy fluctuation. Eating was on point yesterday. No exercise though. Rested my knee. It hurt even more this morning.
Day 77 01/11 – 147.9 (- .3) Lunch and dinner were on point yesterday. Still snacked, but I’ve been eating “healthier” snacks and really trying[/I/ not to over do it. No exercise.
Week 11 Goal 147.0
Week 11 actual weight: 147.9
Total Challenge gain/loss to date (week 11): ↓ 2.4
Week 12
Day 78 01/12 – 147.9 (= 0) Kept busy all day yesterday to avoid thinking about food. Caved to potato chips last night. Hope to do better on this beautiful, sunny day!

@Crochetluvr - you're absolutely right, I've been able to reverse my recent weight gaining trend and find I'm tempted to cancel road trip plans next week because they'll mean eating out etc etc. I'd like to really lock in some new habits before traveling and visiting.
@dawnbgethealthy - champagne with friends before heading off to the theatre sounds like a dream come true. I've found that a piece of cheese on a toast levels me out for the rest of the morning, but, IF the toast is 'buttered' then it triggers wanting more food. Lately I've been adding a couple of tbsp of quinoa to beaten eggs, and that replaces the need for toast.
I remember reading that just prior to the body releasing fat, it goes into panic mode, wanting to hold on to the fat. It'll create a feeling of hunger for food, or fatigue, needing to move less; so when I"m smart, I'll recognize that those are the times we need to push thru; no extra food and keep moving. This's how I'm feeling today, would rather jsut sit and scroll instead of getting out for a walk.
Responding to your post has helped remind me to get outside.
"fat" is a tricky thing.

Week 12 Goal: 147.0 (I'm keeping this as my goal until I reach it)
Week 12 actual weight:
Previous and Future WeeksPrevious days' notes were lost when I got a new phone and my notes didn't get carried over. Copying and pasting from an old post proved to be too troublesome, especially for something that no one really needs or wants to re-read.
Day 36—12/01— 148.7. I was expecting my weight to be up from my sick weight yesterday, but wasn't expecting this much. I ate yesterday, but still well under my calories as I wasn't feeling great. Oh well.
Day 37—12/02— 149.1
Day 38—12/03— 148.3. I'm happy it came down a little.
Day 39—12/04— 147.9.
Day 40—12/05— 146.7. Woo-hoo! I'm super excited for this new low. Hopefully it'll stick for the end of the week goal
Day 41—12/06— 147.0. I feel like I'm in the zone right now. I'm motivated, my healthy habits are taking hold and becoming routine, and I just feel like I'm doing things "right". I know this feeling won't last forever, but I'm going to try to hold on to it for a few more pounds at least.
Day 42—12/07— 146.4. My boys are spending the weekend with Gramma, so I'll have some more time to myself today. Have some errands, chores and things to do, but hoping to also have some down time for Me Time and maybe a little extra at the gym.
Week 6 Goal: 147.0
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4
Day 43—12/08— 145.5. Hmmm... I'm dropping weight a bit too fast. Almost 2 pounds in 2 days? A bit of a woosh may have been building up, but I also think I'm a bit dehydrated. I haven't been focusing on water the last few days. So I'm going to try drinking more today, and see if my weight evens out a bit.
Day 44—12/09— 147.2. I drank more water yesterday, putting me around where I think I should be. I gotta stay hydrated.
Day 45—12/10—147.7. Took the day off from the gym, but went for a walk. Calories were just a smidge higher than I would like them to be. Going to pre-track my food today.
Day 46—12/11— 147.7. Anxiety was pretty bad. Exercise was pretty scarce yesterday. Eating was okay.
Day 47—12/12— 148.0. I was really tired yesterday so took it easy, again. Food wasn't the best. I'm going to do better today.
Day 48—12/13— 146.4.
Day 49—12/14— 148.0. My weight was everywhere this week. I'm just going to take this week's gain with a grain of salt.
Week 7 Goal: 146.0
Week 7 actual weight: 148.0
Day 50—12/15—147.9 . I had a few drinks last night. I'm surprised my weight isn't up more.
Day 51—12/16— 150.4. My food choices were horrible this weekend so this is not much of a surprise. I'm back at it today though.
Day 52—12/17— 150.8. Well this isn't good. I'll do better today than what I've been doing the last few days.
Day 53—12/18— 149.7. Today's goal: no Christmas cookies.
Day 54—12/19— 150.5. Well, I had Christmas cookies yesterday.
Day 55—12/20— 150.2. Gotta pull myself together. Today will be better.
Day 56—12/21— 150.7. I did much better than the previous few days. Bummer that the scale doesn't recognize that.
Week 8 Goal:147
Week 8 Actual Weight: 150.7
Day 57—12/22— 149.8. trying to control my eating a bit more.
Day 58—12/23— 149.5. I'm sick. Going to take it easy for today.
Day 59—12/24— 148.9. Another easy day. Still sick.
Day 60—12/25— DNW
Day 61—12/26— 150.6
Day 62—12/27— 148.0. Finally starting to feel like I am getting better.
Day 63—12/28— 148.8.
Week 9 Goal: 148.0
Week 9 actual weight: 148.8
Day 64—12/29—149.1. Christmas with my mom today. And then I HAVE to get back on track. Still have a pretty good cough, but hopefully that clears up soon.
Day 65—12/30—148.6. Christmas is officially over for me. It's time to get serious again. Exercise is still going to be limited due to my lungs still getting better, but there's no reason I can't get my diet under control.
Day 66—12/31— 149.5.
Day 67—01/01— 149.0. Happy New Year!
December was pretty much a wash. I had some success earlier in the month, but landed about where I was at the beginning. At least I'm not up. Onward and downward.
Day 68—01/02— 150.2. I logged everything. As bad and as far over as it was, I at least logged it. Today will be better.
Day 69—01/03— 149.5. Logged and stayed under calories. Also went to the gym for a walk/run on the treadmill. Trying to make the positive changes to see the results I would like.
Day 70—01/04—149.5. Food was okay yesterday, but could be better. I fell asleep on the couch instead of going to the gym, but did get a walk in earlier in the day.
I missed my goal for the week by a lot, but I have my habits going in the right direction and I'm sure the scale will be on my side soon.
Week 10 Goal: 147.0
Week 10 actual weight: 149.5
Day 71—01/05— 147.8. I don't really trust this woosh, I feel like it may be temporary. I ran a 5k on the treadmill as well as some walking. Food was within calorie goal, but there wasn't much good nutrition in it. I'll have to do better.
Day 72—01/06— 149.5. I ran 5k and did some walking on the treadmill, totalling an hour. But food was less than perfect.
Day 73—01/07—149.6. I guess "you can't be upset by the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do" applies here. I've been doing okay. Food hasn't been horrible, but not great. Exercise has been decent, but not enough to offset the not great diet. I'm guessing this is about maintenance, since I've been averaging mid 149 for a while. Time to tighten up the diet (I'm sure I've said this a lot lately, but I'm serious this time, the lack of results is starting to frustrate me.)
Day 74—01/08— 150.0. Food was better, but still room for improvement (I don't need crackers when my boys snack!). Exercise was good, outdoor walk and ran 5k.
Day 75—01/09— 149.5. Food was pretty good. Exercise was good - outdoor walk and ran 6k.
Day 76—01/10— 148.9. Food was good. Exercise was good- ran 6k
Day 77—01/11— 147.8. Food was good. Exercise was a 5k run

Beginning of Round Thoughts:
I am Sick and Tired of being Sick and Tired. I mean, I am LITERALLY both Sick with many ailments and Tired of putting myself through this back & forth! I weighed 181.6 on January 1st, 2024. This has not been a good year for me. How much progress I can make in November, December and January is very very questionable, at the very least. Those months are riddled with holidays, baking pies and cakes, making cookies and fudge. Lots of decadent dishes high in calories and carbs. And lots of shopping excursions away from home which always include restaurants and long car rides. So many celebrations including multiple family birthdays as well! These are the hardest months of the year for most of us. But I’m not throwing in the towel just yet!. I will do ALL I can, As I can, When I can. Life is going to happen and I will definitely live it, but there are lots of days where progress can still be made and/or damages can be mitigated. I must stay steadfast and strong in my resolve. This is about my health journey, not just my weight journey. I will not give up based on what month the calendar page is on!

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.
01/12-191.4-(Trend Weight:192.5 )- I don’t know why the scale went up instead of down. I was on point yesterday with my eating habits for the first time in awhile. Humph…. Traveling today north to get building supplies. So cold out and snowy-I just want to stay bundled up under the covers.
Day 79-01/13-191.2-(Trend weight 192.4) Well, I was hoping that when it bounced up unexpectedly that it would then slide right back down, but no such luck. I did travel yesterday so I guess eating at the restaurant would have stopped that process anyway. I’m actually down 0.2 since yesterday AFTER THE TRAVEL and I think that is a First for me!!! I’ll take it with grace and gratitude. I chose well at the restaurant and made sure I didn’t bring home any garbage that tempts and lingers for days. Go Donna!

Hi : - )
I am Dawn.
5'2"
64 years old
Cranbrook, BC, Canada
The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.
I started my weight loss journey because my doc threatened to put me on blood pressure medication for the rest of my life. I joined MFP at 198 pounds although I had been heavier than that.
I lost enough weight to chase away high blood pressure, but now the doc is saying that my arthritis in knees, feet, and ankles would benefit greatly by me dropping another 30 pounds. That number used to be 15 pounds, but I have been gaining and gaining these last couple of years.
I am an active person, and eat nutritious food.

Oh yes, getting outside! My dream. I can see outside from my various jobs, but not the same as actually being outside.
Eggs and toast. I don't have it often, but I like an egg very lightly over with toast to dip it into.
If I have egg whites (from a carton) I will add a bit of some sort of cheese, and I don't need toast with that.

Ultimate Goal Weight: 135
Challenge Goal Weight: 146.3lbs (starting Challenge 64 days in)
Late to the game but I need to try this again. I’ve gained a bit since I quit the last 100-day challenge (#18 I think), my knees hurt, I’m on meds for high cholesterol, I’m behind on paperwork, and my home is as cluttered and disorganized as it’s ever been. I know it’s all connected. I need to start making changes and taking accountability again. Consistency is not my strong suit but I refuse to quit. 😇Day 64 12/29 – 150.3 I’m sure my body is still recovering from the last few weeks of unhealthy eating and only sporadic exercise. Today was the first low carb/low refined sugar day in a very long time. High sodium dinner tho. Prepped 5 days of overnight oats to help me stay on track. I also did a 50-min. Peloton work-out. Off to somewhat of a good start. But it’s only day 1 for me.
Day 65 12/30 – 148.7 (- 1.6) Tried to stay on track today. TRIED. Oh well. Tomorrow is our NYE celebration. Enough said.
Day 66 12/31 – 148.9 (+ .2) Happy New Year everyone! Not surprised by my weight this morning, and expect the same for the next few days while my body processes all the alcohol and carbs from celebrating. I’m so looking forward to a great 2025.
Day 67 01/01 – 150 (+ 1.1) Relaxing day watching some college football, visiting with family, eating leftovers, including lots of desserts.
Day 68 01/02 – 151.4 (+ 1.4) Determined to be back on track today after 4 days of complete indulgence, alcohol included. Exercise might be a challenge as my knee still hurts, but I will certainly try to get some movement in. It’s also the last day with my DD who returns to her home tomorrow. Sure going to miss her.
Day 69 01/03 – 150.3 (-1.1) Finally, a little decrease. Don’t think I’ll make my goal weight tomorrow tho, but that’s ok. We’re only 3 days into the new year. Couldn’t resist a donut from Krispy Kreme last night. My leg extension machine arrived yesterday. I hope this helps to strengthen my knees and reduce knee pain.
Day 70 01/04 – 148.1 (-2.2) I met my not so ambitious goal weight this week. Most likely just water and inflammation (not fat), but it’s still encouraging.
Week 10 Goal 148.3
Week 10 actual weight: 148.1
Total Challenge gain/loss to date (week 10): ↓ 2.2
Week 11
Day 71 01/05 – 149.5 (+ 1.4) Out with friends last night. Had a burger w/ fries and 1 vodka on the rocks which has no sugar or carbs. I thought I kept it pretty much under control. Still no exercise.
Day 72 01/06 – 149.2 (- .3) Much needed rain in Maui this morning as there was a small brush fire in my neighborhood yesterday. Hopefully, anything left smoldering is now totally put out. And I almost stayed on track foodwise yesterday, but I gave in to a salty / carb craving late last night.
Day 73 01/07 – 148 0 (- 1.2) Could have done better with what I ate yesterday. It’s always the night-time hunger that ruins it. I just had to have that pumpkin muffin after dinner. Why? I do have healthier options to choose from. Ugh! But I did manage to get an hour of exercise in so I’m happy about that.
Day 74 01/08 – 147.2 (- .8) Slowly edging away from the 150 mark. I’m guessing I’m getting rid of water retention from the overeating & junk food consumed over the Holidays. Eating was on point yesterday. Chose a healthier nighttime snack and ended it there. Did some pilates & core exercises, then a good stretch session which always makes me feel good. Wish everyday could be like yesterday.
Day 75 01/09 – 146.9 (- .3) Hmmm… not sure I trust this number. Ate well until after dinner, as usual. I mean it wasn’t that bad but I could have done without the muffin. Got an hour of workout in. Knee is hurting this morning.
Day 76 01/10 – 148.2 (+ 1.3) Crazy fluctuation. Eating was on point yesterday. No exercise though. Rested my knee. It hurt even more this morning.
Day 77 01/11 – 147.9 (- .3) Lunch and dinner were on point yesterday. Still snacked, but I’ve been eating “healthier” snacks and really trying[/I/ not to over do it. No exercise.
Week 11 Goal 147.0
Week 11 actual weight: 147.9

Day 78 01/12 – 147.9 (= 0) Kept busy all day yesterday to avoid thinking about food. Caved to potato chips last night. Hope to do better on this beautiful, sunny day!

About me and previous weeks under the spoiler!Hey new friends! 🎉 This is my very first 100-day challenge, just in time to conquer the holiday season and I’m excited! My goal is to lose 7 lbs by the end or roughly 0.5 lbs/week.
For me, it's all about healthy eating and getting my portions under control. I don’t have any strict workout plans 'cause I’ve learned that juggling too many goals just makes my brain melt 🧠💥. I try to stay active, but I’m totally a "go with the flow" kinda person—no step counting here.
About Me - Canadian, work full time remotely, been on MFP since 2010 so I’ve been trying to lose the same 10, 15, 20 lbs for almost 15 years! 🤣 HW 184.6 May ’24, I love puzzles, Netflix, puttering around the house and my cats!
Week 1 - Down 0 lb- Day 1 (10/27) 171.8 lb. Ran 10k, goal was 1800 cal. Garmin said I burned over 800 cal during my run but those are wildly inaccurate so I count that as 400 cal, then ate back about 200. Ended the day at 1850.
- Day 2 (10/28) 172.8 lb. I'm sure this gain is due to my big run yesterday and muscle soreness, I'm trying not to get bothered by fluctuations due to good things like exercise or strength training. Have a family birthday dinner tonight, have already looked at the menu and nutrition and pre-selected something. While I'd love to splurge, its not my own bday and I just don't think it's worth it today. I'll probably steal a fry or two off someone! 🍟
- Day 3 (10/29) 171.6 lb.🌮 I’m loving these daily reflections so far! Last night’s dinner out strategy: I pre-selected fish tacos and a small soup for about 800 calories, plus I had a protein snack before heading out (because prep is key, right?). Someone ordered appies for the table, and I did have a few, but I restrained myself. Ended up skipping the soup, and the fish tacos were awesome! I even ditched the tortilla on the second one. Still over my daily calories, but let’s be real—it feels unpossible to stick to a deficit when restaurant food is involved! This year, I've been working on changing my mindset around food, reminding myself that food is NOT entertainment. Last night was all about the family vibes—we laughed, shared stories, and celebrated a birthday. The people were the highlight, not the food!
- Day 4 (10/30) 171.6 lb. Hit the gym yesterday for a lower body strength session, feeling sore. Ate well, then bff called right before dinner to see if I wanted to go out to eat. We shared a main dish and appie. No idea on calories so prob another day not within deficit but I’m happy to have developed better restaurant habits so each visit isn’t a complete calorie blowout. Intentionally have not bought my halloween candy yet, will do that today to limit the damage! 🍫
- Day 5 (10/31) 172.0 lb. No willpower around Halloween candy, someone brought me a giant cookie I ate it, rode the bike for an hour, tomorrow will be a better day.🫡
- Day 6 (11/1) 171.8 lb. Hmm I’m back to Day 1 weight, I suppose that’s ok and it’s not an overall gain and I have to accept that with 2 restaurant meals, and Halloween candy. I’ll take it as a maintenance week. Time to buckle down again!
- Day 7 11/02 171.8 lb. First week in the bag! Yesterday rode bike on Zwift for an hour, today did ParkRun (edging closer to my 50 milestone! Ate well today.
Week 2 - Down 2.8 lb- Day 8 11/03 170.6 lb Oh, the scale drama…anyway! I’m reading The Hungry Brain, and it’s so interesting. Just learned about “delay discounting” — basically, how much we value future rewards vs. right-now ones. Like in that classic marshmallow experiment where kids could eat one marshmallow immediately or wait for two. The kids who waited? They tended to make healthier choices as adults (roughly speaking!).
Another study had adults picture a happy, successful future self to resist temptation. So next time you’re eyeing the Halloween candy bowl, maybe channel Future You with superhuman willpower—or just grab one and call it research! - Day 9 11/04 170.6 lb. Yahoo!🎉 Two days in the 170’s. Ran 13k yesterday, just felt like a nice long run. Ate back some calories but overall kept it around 2000. Ate well today.
- Day 10 11/05 169.8 lb. I haven’t seen the 160’s in two whole years! I had a good calorie day yesterday so tried to recreate all the same foods today. Got derailed because I left my peanut butter and jam toast on the coffee table and when I came back I had a suspicious feeling the cat licked it. Upon close examination I’m pretty sure I could see a strip of jam missing and the texture was different, exactly the width of a cat tongue. Compost. Anyways, as long as I don’t have a huge snack before bed I should be ok for today.
- Day 11 11/06 170.4 lb Lousy day at work, went for a run to accomplish something of value. Ordered a giant fish burrito for dinner, logged it as 1000 cal.
- Day 12 11/07 170.6 lb 10% thru this challenge! flu and covid vaccines today, I've had fever and chills with prior ones so planned this one over the long weekend.[/color]
- Day 13 11/08 170.8 lb down and out with vaccine side effects
- Day 14 11/09 169.0 lb wow where’d this number come from?? craving comfort junk food due to feeling sick, but good thing is that I don’t have any at home. 2 week loss is 2.8 but I don’t expect the 169 to stick around tomorrow, sometimes i think my scale is pretty glitchy!
Week 3 - Up 1.2 lb- Day 15 11/10 169.8 lb Sunday long run 12.5km, made a half recipe blueberry muffins with splenda
- Day 16 11/11 169.0 lb Remembrance Day today
- Day 17 11/12 170.2 lb Eating has been ok, I track daily but the accuracy of it has always stumped me as I cook a lot from scratch. i’ve often thought it would be easier from a tracking perspective to eat packaged foods, the barcode scanner in MFP is just so handy. went to the gym today for some lower body strength. anytime I want to eat or snack when bored i come to this discussion group and read the posts, this has been so helpful.
- Day 18 11/13 171.0 lb Hopefully just some water retention from sore muscles. Been eating well, did some easy biking 45 mins
- Day 19 11/14 170.8 lb 5k run with hill drills. Foodwise I’m doing terrible with protein, I wish I could consume premiere protein or other high protein milks but dairy gives me terrible cystic acne. i have pea protein powders but they are kinda ick.
- Day 20 11/15 171.0 lb Have really been on a rollercoaster with the scale this week. My eating has been more nibbly than before, there's quite a few things making it to my mouth but not the tracker! Going to focus on tracking well this weekend.
- Day 21 11/16 171.0 lb End of week 3 down 0.8 from Day 1, not really what I was hoping for. Well at least I’ve been consistent with logging in each day! I’m determined to make more progress.
Week 4 - Down 0.8 lb from Day 1- Day 22 11/17 171.2 lb
- Day 23 11/18 171.8 lb Not letting this get me down! Trust the process
- Day 24 11/19 171.2 lb
- Day 25 11/20 171.8 lb
- Day 26 11/21 170.8 lb Food tracking going well, keeping the exercise up too. Scale doesn’t reflect it but feeling good and clothes fitting better
- Day 27 11/22 170.6 lb
- Day 28 11/23 171.0 lb Was feeling blah yesterday after a long day at work, just wanted to curl up on the couch and netflix. was scrolling this group and saw someone post how they rode their stationary bike. that instantly motivated me to hop on mine for a 45 min ride. that’s what i love about this challenge! i hope someone sees this today and decides to make a better food choice or get some movement.
Week 5 - Up 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 29 11/24 173.4 lb Staying positive despite the scale, went out for dinner last night, had wine and split a dessert 3 ways. Brought half my entree home for lunch today. Did ParkRun yesterday and got my fastest time this year! I was still beaten by someone “power walking” and looked 20 years beyond my age LOL! Its a grey and rainy day here, going to finish my coffee and head to the gym for some strength.
- Day 30 11/25 173.2 lb Super sore from the gym, I’m telling myself I’m gaining muscle 💪
- Day 31 11/26 172.2 lb Busy week, not much time for exercise so trying to focus on healthy eating. I’ve also stopped drinking diet soda, not sure why because I love it but I think it was making me snacky and hungry. Switched to flavoured bubble water which is growing on me, esp the pineapple coconut flavour!
- Day 32 11/27 171.0 lb
- Day 33 11/28 170.6 lb
- Day 34 11/29 171.4 lb
- Day 35 11/30 174.0 lb
Week 6 - Down 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 36 12/01 171.0 lb Gosh it’s been a busy several days and I have not had a moment to myself. I’ve been weighing each morning but haven’t had the time to update my posts. Well I’m a third of the way through this challenge and nowhere near where I thought I'd be. I’m not getting down about it and will just look back on the last few weeks as a learning experience. I’ve done a quite a bit of exercise, and this just reinforces what I already knew which is that exercise has no effect on weight loss (for me). Other benefits yes - but does not change the scale one bit. So, more focus on calorie deficit is needed! I ran 5k yesterday and 8k today, and tracked all my food so far. Going to have an apple as my after dinner snack. Congrats to everyone who is crushing it!
- Day 37 12/02 170.8 lb
- Day 38 12/03 170.0 lb
- Day 39 12/04 169.2 lb
- Day 40 12/05 170.6 lb In my mind I only missed posting a day or two, but obvs much longer than that. Work has been busy, trying to cram everything in before holidays…who says Dec is a slow month. Was ecstatic to see my weight drop into the 160’s again, albeit not for long. Its all good tho, still continuing to track my food. I really need to eat some protein, been snacking on too many carbs.
- Day 41 12/06 169.6 lb Yay another day in the 160’s!
- Day 42 12/07 169.6 lb
Week 7 - Down 2.8 lb from Day 1- Day 43 12/08 169.0 lb
- Day 44 12/09 170.0 lb
- Day 45 12/10 169.4 lb
- Day 46 12/11 DNW
- Day 47 12/12 169.0 lb Work is very stressful, and I constantly feel like I’m fighting a cold with a sore throat that comes and goes. Managed to get out for a run yesterday but otherwise have barely been going to the gym or stationary biking. I don’t beat myself up about it too much as long as I have my food under control. Sometimes by dinner I’m down to very few calories left but i try to reflect on where i went astray during the day and try to do better the next day.
- Day 48 12/13 168.2 lb Wow where did this come from!
- Day 49 12/14 169.0 lb Yep didn’t last long
Week 8 - Down 2.6 lb from Day 1- Day 50 12/15 169.2 lb Ran a total of 20km this week over 3 sessions, plus one stationary bike workout. Happy with my activity level. I have a gingerbread house kit that I put together on Friday. Ate a few of the candies plus one of the christmas tree cutouts hee hee! All in all I’ve been pretty good with treats the last few weeks.
- Day 51 12/16 169.4 lb I think I got like 38 grams of protein today, I don’t know why it’s so hard for me.
- Day 52 12/17 170.0 lb Haven’t had dinner yet and I’m only at 48 grams of protein. If anyone has tips to eat more protein (and don’t involve cottage cheese barf), I’m all ears.
- Day 53 12/18 170.2 lb
- Day 54 12/19 170.8 lb durn it all…back in the 170’s. i know life is not a number but i’m mighty annoyed. must be the salty chicken bacon. went to the gym today for lower body strength.
- Day 55 12/20 169.6 lb
- Day 56 12/21 169.2 lb
Week 9 - Down 2 lb from Day 1- Day 57 12/22 DNW
- Day 58 12/23 169.6 lb
- Day 59 12/24 168.6 lb Have not posted for a bunch of days now, Christmas craziness in full swing over here. Hosted dinner, turkeys and all the trimmings, everything turned out really well. Only cried once today. Have consumed an extraordinary amount of holiday treats, but will soon draw the line and get back to regularly scheduled programming. Happiest of holidays to everyone!!
- Day 60 12/25 169.8 lb
- Day 61 12/26 170.6 lb
- Day 62 12/27 170.2 lb
- Day 63 12/28 169.8 lb
Week 10 Down 0 lb from Day 1- Day 64 12/29 169.2 lb Weight has stayed pretty steady throughout the holidays, can’t expect to lose given the indulging I’ve done, but going to look on the bright side that I haven’t gained!
- Day 65 12/30 169.6 lb
- Day 66 12/31 169.4 lb
- Day 67 01/01 170.0 lb
- Day 68 01/02 171.4 lb tom oh well…been keeping pretty active nonetheless, food could be better for sure. the only treat left in the house is a gingerbread house. funny how stale cookie and candy bits are still appealing. might have to compost it pretty soon!
- Day 69 01/03 DNW
- Day 70 01/04 171.8 lb
Week 11 Down 1.4 lb from Day 1- Day 71 01/05 171.8 lb I’ve been much more interested in exercising and movement these days vs paying attention to what I’m eating. Maybe it’s just a phase…I hope to get back to accurately tracking my food intake again. I’m seeing huge improvements in my running tho so that’s something to be happy about.
- Day 72 01/06 170.8 lb
- Day 73 01/07 170.4 lb
- Day 74 01/08 170.6 lb
- Day 75 01/09 170.2 lb
- Day 76 01/10 169 lb Nice downward whoosh after TOM, let’s see how long I can stay in the 160’s. Didn’t eat very well today but I tracked it and went for a quick run.
- Day 77 01/11 170.4 lb
- Day 78 01/12 170.2 lb
- Day 79 01/13 169.6 lb Ran an 8k race yesterday with my club, close to a thousand entrants. I finished in the bottom 10% and I’m still super happy, it was the longest I’ve ever run at that kind of speed. Training has now started for my half marathon. Tracked my food well today, determined to shed a few more pounds before the next event! Exercise has never been a good way for me to lose weight, it either makes me nap more or eat more….the body has a way of evening itself out.

Day 79—01/13— 148.8. Ran 10k. Food was okay, though a few too many wasted calories on food with little healthy nutrition.
Day 80—01/14— 149.7. Grrr. I'm really having a hard time getting this number to go down and stay down.

Week 12 Goal: 147.0 (I'm keeping this as my goal until I reach it)
Week 12 actual weight:
Previous and Future WeeksPrevious days' notes were lost when I got a new phone and my notes didn't get carried over. Copying and pasting from an old post proved to be too troublesome, especially for something that no one really needs or wants to re-read.
Day 36—12/01— 148.7. I was expecting my weight to be up from my sick weight yesterday, but wasn't expecting this much. I ate yesterday, but still well under my calories as I wasn't feeling great. Oh well.
Day 37—12/02— 149.1
Day 38—12/03— 148.3. I'm happy it came down a little.
Day 39—12/04— 147.9.
Day 40—12/05— 146.7. Woo-hoo! I'm super excited for this new low. Hopefully it'll stick for the end of the week goal
Day 41—12/06— 147.0. I feel like I'm in the zone right now. I'm motivated, my healthy habits are taking hold and becoming routine, and I just feel like I'm doing things "right". I know this feeling won't last forever, but I'm going to try to hold on to it for a few more pounds at least.
Day 42—12/07— 146.4. My boys are spending the weekend with Gramma, so I'll have some more time to myself today. Have some errands, chores and things to do, but hoping to also have some down time for Me Time and maybe a little extra at the gym.
Week 6 Goal: 147.0
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4
Day 43—12/08— 145.5. Hmmm... I'm dropping weight a bit too fast. Almost 2 pounds in 2 days? A bit of a woosh may have been building up, but I also think I'm a bit dehydrated. I haven't been focusing on water the last few days. So I'm going to try drinking more today, and see if my weight evens out a bit.
Day 44—12/09— 147.2. I drank more water yesterday, putting me around where I think I should be. I gotta stay hydrated.
Day 45—12/10—147.7. Took the day off from the gym, but went for a walk. Calories were just a smidge higher than I would like them to be. Going to pre-track my food today.
Day 46—12/11— 147.7. Anxiety was pretty bad. Exercise was pretty scarce yesterday. Eating was okay.
Day 47—12/12— 148.0. I was really tired yesterday so took it easy, again. Food wasn't the best. I'm going to do better today.
Day 48—12/13— 146.4.
Day 49—12/14— 148.0. My weight was everywhere this week. I'm just going to take this week's gain with a grain of salt.
Week 7 Goal: 146.0
Week 7 actual weight: 148.0
Day 50—12/15—147.9 . I had a few drinks last night. I'm surprised my weight isn't up more.
Day 51—12/16— 150.4. My food choices were horrible this weekend so this is not much of a surprise. I'm back at it today though.
Day 52—12/17— 150.8. Well this isn't good. I'll do better today than what I've been doing the last few days.
Day 53—12/18— 149.7. Today's goal: no Christmas cookies.
Day 54—12/19— 150.5. Well, I had Christmas cookies yesterday.
Day 55—12/20— 150.2. Gotta pull myself together. Today will be better.
Day 56—12/21— 150.7. I did much better than the previous few days. Bummer that the scale doesn't recognize that.
Week 8 Goal:147
Week 8 Actual Weight: 150.7
Day 57—12/22— 149.8. trying to control my eating a bit more.
Day 58—12/23— 149.5. I'm sick. Going to take it easy for today.
Day 59—12/24— 148.9. Another easy day. Still sick.
Day 60—12/25— DNW
Day 61—12/26— 150.6
Day 62—12/27— 148.0. Finally starting to feel like I am getting better.
Day 63—12/28— 148.8.
Week 9 Goal: 148.0
Week 9 actual weight: 148.8
Day 64—12/29—149.1. Christmas with my mom today. And then I HAVE to get back on track. Still have a pretty good cough, but hopefully that clears up soon.
Day 65—12/30—148.6. Christmas is officially over for me. It's time to get serious again. Exercise is still going to be limited due to my lungs still getting better, but there's no reason I can't get my diet under control.
Day 66—12/31— 149.5.
Day 67—01/01— 149.0. Happy New Year!
December was pretty much a wash. I had some success earlier in the month, but landed about where I was at the beginning. At least I'm not up. Onward and downward.
Day 68—01/02— 150.2. I logged everything. As bad and as far over as it was, I at least logged it. Today will be better.
Day 69—01/03— 149.5. Logged and stayed under calories. Also went to the gym for a walk/run on the treadmill. Trying to make the positive changes to see the results I would like.
Day 70—01/04—149.5. Food was okay yesterday, but could be better. I fell asleep on the couch instead of going to the gym, but did get a walk in earlier in the day.
I missed my goal for the week by a lot, but I have my habits going in the right direction and I'm sure the scale will be on my side soon.
Week 10 Goal: 147.0
Week 10 actual weight: 149.5
Day 71—01/05— 147.8. I don't really trust this woosh, I feel like it may be temporary. I ran a 5k on the treadmill as well as some walking. Food was within calorie goal, but there wasn't much good nutrition in it. I'll have to do better.
Day 72—01/06— 149.5. I ran 5k and did some walking on the treadmill, totalling an hour. But food was less than perfect.
Day 73—01/07—149.6. I guess "you can't be upset by the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do" applies here. I've been doing okay. Food hasn't been horrible, but not great. Exercise has been decent, but not enough to offset the not great diet. I'm guessing this is about maintenance, since I've been averaging mid 149 for a while. Time to tighten up the diet (I'm sure I've said this a lot lately, but I'm serious this time, the lack of results is starting to frustrate me.)
Day 74—01/08— 150.0. Food was better, but still room for improvement (I don't need crackers when my boys snack!). Exercise was good, outdoor walk and ran 5k.
Day 75—01/09— 149.5. Food was pretty good. Exercise was good - outdoor walk and ran 6k.
Day 76—01/10— 148.9. Food was good. Exercise was good- ran 6k
Day 77—01/11— 147.8. Food was good. Exercise was a 5k run

Was almost 155 following the snow day. No surprise
We treat snow as a big chow-down opportunity here.
152.8 today.
Met with dietician yesterday to discuss bloating and inflammation. She was very familiar with MFP and reviewed my diary and weekly averages going back several months. She made several suggestions. I’m implementing one already to see if it helps, and adding another next week. Wanted to try the first separately to see if it helped indeed.6 -

Beginning of Round Thoughts:
I am Sick and Tired of being Sick and Tired. I mean, I am LITERALLY both Sick with many ailments and Tired of putting myself through this back & forth! I weighed 181.6 on January 1st, 2024. This has not been a good year for me. How much progress I can make in November, December and January is very very questionable, at the very least. Those months are riddled with holidays, baking pies and cakes, making cookies and fudge. Lots of decadent dishes high in calories and carbs. And lots of shopping excursions away from home which always include restaurants and long car rides. So many celebrations including multiple family birthdays as well! These are the hardest months of the year for most of us. But I’m not throwing in the towel just yet!. I will do ALL I can, As I can, When I can. Life is going to happen and I will definitely live it, but there are lots of days where progress can still be made and/or damages can be mitigated. I must stay steadfast and strong in my resolve. This is about my health journey, not just my weight journey. I will not give up based on what month the calendar page is on!

01/12-191.4-(Trend Weight:192.5 )-
Day 79-01/13-191.2-(Trend weight 192.4) Well, I was hoping that when it bounced up unexpectedly that it would then slide right back down, but no such luck. I did travel yesterday so I guess eating at the restaurant would have stopped that process anyway. I’m actually down 0.2 since yesterday AFTER THE TRAVEL and I think that is a First for me!!! I’ll take it with grace and gratitude. I chose well at the restaurant and made sure I didn’t bring home any garbage that tempts and lingers for days. Go Donna!
01/14-192.6-(Trend Weight: 192.4)- Absolutely no reason for a 1 ½ lb gain unless it’s due to no TMI x 2 and perhaps sodium from homemade Chicken Lemon Rice soup. I was 250 calories and 16 carbs under my limits yesterday and under the last couple of days in a row. How disheartening! I’ll be flushing with water today, I’ll take my Lasix today which I’m supposed to take daily for my heart (but don’t) and I’ll hope for a better outcome for tomorrow. My mind wants to resort to drastic measures like eating only 500 calories today but my common sense tells me to stay the course with healthy satisufying options and trust the process. Weight loss is not linear so I’m not going to let this get me down. This is exactly the weight I started with on Jan 1st so I haven't made a drop of progress from the holiday gain. But there's no use crying over spilt milk. Onward and Forward!

I’m Teri
Age 61, 5’4”
Challenge Starting Weight: 150.3 lbs (highest weight ever!)
Ultimate Goal Weight: 135
Challenge Goal Weight: 146.3lbs (starting Challenge 64 days in)
Late to the game but I need to try this again. I’ve gained a bit since I quit the last 100-day challenge (#18 I think), my knees hurt, I’m on meds for high cholesterol, I’m behind on paperwork, and my home is as cluttered and disorganized as it’s ever been. I know it’s all connected. I need to start making changes and taking accountability again. Consistency is not my strong suit but I refuse to quit. 😇Day 64 12/29 – 150.3 I’m sure my body is still recovering from the last few weeks of unhealthy eating and only sporadic exercise. Today was the first low carb/low refined sugar day in a very long time. High sodium dinner tho. Prepped 5 days of overnight oats to help me stay on track. I also did a 50-min. Peloton work-out. Off to somewhat of a good start. But it’s only day 1 for me.
Day 65 12/30 – 148.7 (- 1.6) Tried to stay on track today. TRIED. Oh well. Tomorrow is our NYE celebration. Enough said.
Day 66 12/31 – 148.9 (+ .2) Happy New Year everyone! Not surprised by my weight this morning, and expect the same for the next few days while my body processes all the alcohol and carbs from celebrating. I’m so looking forward to a great 2025.
Day 67 01/01 – 150 (+ 1.1) Relaxing day watching some college football, visiting with family, eating leftovers, including lots of desserts.
Day 68 01/02 – 151.4 (+ 1.4) Determined to be back on track today after 4 days of complete indulgence, alcohol included. Exercise might be a challenge as my knee still hurts, but I will certainly try to get some movement in. It’s also the last day with my DD who returns to her home tomorrow. Sure going to miss her.
Day 69 01/03 – 150.3 (-1.1) Finally, a little decrease. Don’t think I’ll make my goal weight tomorrow tho, but that’s ok. We’re only 3 days into the new year. Couldn’t resist a donut from Krispy Kreme last night. My leg extension machine arrived yesterday. I hope this helps to strengthen my knees and reduce knee pain.
Day 70 01/04 – 148.1 (-2.2) I met my not so ambitious goal weight this week. Most likely just water and inflammation (not fat), but it’s still encouraging.
Week 10 Goal 148.3
Week 10 actual weight: 148.1
Total Challenge gain/loss to date (week 10): ↓ 2.2
Week 11
Day 71 01/05 – 149.5 (+ 1.4) Out with friends last night. Had a burger w/ fries and 1 vodka on the rocks which has no sugar or carbs. I thought I kept it pretty much under control. Still no exercise.
Day 72 01/06 – 149.2 (- .3) Much needed rain in Maui this morning as there was a small brush fire in my neighborhood yesterday. Hopefully, anything left smoldering is now totally put out. And I almost stayed on track foodwise yesterday, but I gave in to a salty / carb craving late last night.
Day 73 01/07 – 148 0 (- 1.2) Could have done better with what I ate yesterday. It’s always the night-time hunger that ruins it. I just had to have that pumpkin muffin after dinner. Why? I do have healthier options to choose from. Ugh! But I did manage to get an hour of exercise in so I’m happy about that.
Day 74 01/08 – 147.2 (- .8) Slowly edging away from the 150 mark. I’m guessing I’m getting rid of water retention from the overeating & junk food consumed over the Holidays. Eating was on point yesterday. Chose a healthier nighttime snack and ended it there. Did some pilates & core exercises, then a good stretch session which always makes me feel good. Wish everyday could be like yesterday.
Day 75 01/09 – 146.9 (- .3) Hmmm… not sure I trust this number. Ate well until after dinner, as usual. I mean it wasn’t that bad but I could have done without the muffin. Got an hour of workout in. Knee is hurting this morning.
Day 76 01/10 – 148.2 (+ 1.3) Crazy fluctuation. Eating was on point yesterday. No exercise though. Rested my knee. It hurt even more this morning.
Day 77 01/11 – 147.9 (- .3) Lunch and dinner were on point yesterday. Still snacked, but I’ve been eating “healthier” snacks and really trying[/I/ not to over do it. No exercise.

Week 12
Day 78 01/12 – 147.9 (= 0) Kept busy all day yesterday to avoid thinking about food. Caved to potato chips last night. Hope to do better on this beautiful, sunny day!
Day 79 01/13 – 148.8 (+ .9) Went a little overboard yesterday. Back on track today… hopefully.
Day 80 01/14 – 147.6 (- 1.2) Eating was just ok. I had pasta for dinner and a mini chocolate bar which I could have done without. Got a 1-hour workout in: cardio & upper-body toning.

Good Afternoon!
I started this post yesterday and only saved it as a draft....forgot to post it. Oops. ☺️
@indoorsy_ , CONGRATS on finishing the marathon! That's a real accomplishment.
Day 78—01/12— 176.8 - The body is doing it's thing as always. Not concerned. Oh...and GO EAGLES!!
Day 79—01/13— 176.8 - Back in a holding pattern. Made meatballs yesterday...enough for at least a half dozen meals.
Day 80—01/14— 176.2 - I finished my afghan last night. Very pleased with how it came out.
Can't wait for the deep freeze to break. Just walking to take out my trash and get my mail was rough. I miss walking.

About me and previous weeks under the spoiler!Hey new friends! 🎉 This is my very first 100-day challenge, just in time to conquer the holiday season and I’m excited! My goal is to lose 7 lbs by the end or roughly 0.5 lbs/week.
For me, it's all about healthy eating and getting my portions under control. I don’t have any strict workout plans 'cause I’ve learned that juggling too many goals just makes my brain melt 🧠💥. I try to stay active, but I’m totally a "go with the flow" kinda person—no step counting here.
About Me - Canadian, work full time remotely, been on MFP since 2010 so I’ve been trying to lose the same 10, 15, 20 lbs for almost 15 years! 🤣 HW 184.6 May ’24, I love puzzles, Netflix, puttering around the house and my cats!
Week 1 - Down 0 lb- Day 1 (10/27) 171.8 lb. Ran 10k, goal was 1800 cal. Garmin said I burned over 800 cal during my run but those are wildly inaccurate so I count that as 400 cal, then ate back about 200. Ended the day at 1850.
- Day 2 (10/28) 172.8 lb. I'm sure this gain is due to my big run yesterday and muscle soreness, I'm trying not to get bothered by fluctuations due to good things like exercise or strength training. Have a family birthday dinner tonight, have already looked at the menu and nutrition and pre-selected something. While I'd love to splurge, its not my own bday and I just don't think it's worth it today. I'll probably steal a fry or two off someone! 🍟
- Day 3 (10/29) 171.6 lb.🌮 I’m loving these daily reflections so far! Last night’s dinner out strategy: I pre-selected fish tacos and a small soup for about 800 calories, plus I had a protein snack before heading out (because prep is key, right?). Someone ordered appies for the table, and I did have a few, but I restrained myself. Ended up skipping the soup, and the fish tacos were awesome! I even ditched the tortilla on the second one. Still over my daily calories, but let’s be real—it feels unpossible to stick to a deficit when restaurant food is involved! This year, I've been working on changing my mindset around food, reminding myself that food is NOT entertainment. Last night was all about the family vibes—we laughed, shared stories, and celebrated a birthday. The people were the highlight, not the food!
- Day 4 (10/30) 171.6 lb. Hit the gym yesterday for a lower body strength session, feeling sore. Ate well, then bff called right before dinner to see if I wanted to go out to eat. We shared a main dish and appie. No idea on calories so prob another day not within deficit but I’m happy to have developed better restaurant habits so each visit isn’t a complete calorie blowout. Intentionally have not bought my halloween candy yet, will do that today to limit the damage! 🍫
- Day 5 (10/31) 172.0 lb. No willpower around Halloween candy, someone brought me a giant cookie I ate it, rode the bike for an hour, tomorrow will be a better day.🫡
- Day 6 (11/1) 171.8 lb. Hmm I’m back to Day 1 weight, I suppose that’s ok and it’s not an overall gain and I have to accept that with 2 restaurant meals, and Halloween candy. I’ll take it as a maintenance week. Time to buckle down again!
- Day 7 11/02 171.8 lb. First week in the bag! Yesterday rode bike on Zwift for an hour, today did ParkRun (edging closer to my 50 milestone! Ate well today.
Week 2 - Down 2.8 lb- Day 8 11/03 170.6 lb Oh, the scale drama…anyway! I’m reading The Hungry Brain, and it’s so interesting. Just learned about “delay discounting” — basically, how much we value future rewards vs. right-now ones. Like in that classic marshmallow experiment where kids could eat one marshmallow immediately or wait for two. The kids who waited? They tended to make healthier choices as adults (roughly speaking!).
Another study had adults picture a happy, successful future self to resist temptation. So next time you’re eyeing the Halloween candy bowl, maybe channel Future You with superhuman willpower—or just grab one and call it research! - Day 9 11/04 170.6 lb. Yahoo!🎉 Two days in the 170’s. Ran 13k yesterday, just felt like a nice long run. Ate back some calories but overall kept it around 2000. Ate well today.
- Day 10 11/05 169.8 lb. I haven’t seen the 160’s in two whole years! I had a good calorie day yesterday so tried to recreate all the same foods today. Got derailed because I left my peanut butter and jam toast on the coffee table and when I came back I had a suspicious feeling the cat licked it. Upon close examination I’m pretty sure I could see a strip of jam missing and the texture was different, exactly the width of a cat tongue. Compost. Anyways, as long as I don’t have a huge snack before bed I should be ok for today.
- Day 11 11/06 170.4 lb Lousy day at work, went for a run to accomplish something of value. Ordered a giant fish burrito for dinner, logged it as 1000 cal.
- Day 12 11/07 170.6 lb 10% thru this challenge! flu and covid vaccines today, I've had fever and chills with prior ones so planned this one over the long weekend.[/color]
- Day 13 11/08 170.8 lb down and out with vaccine side effects
- Day 14 11/09 169.0 lb wow where’d this number come from?? craving comfort junk food due to feeling sick, but good thing is that I don’t have any at home. 2 week loss is 2.8 but I don’t expect the 169 to stick around tomorrow, sometimes i think my scale is pretty glitchy!
Week 3 - Up 1.2 lb- Day 15 11/10 169.8 lb Sunday long run 12.5km, made a half recipe blueberry muffins with splenda
- Day 16 11/11 169.0 lb Remembrance Day today
- Day 17 11/12 170.2 lb Eating has been ok, I track daily but the accuracy of it has always stumped me as I cook a lot from scratch. i’ve often thought it would be easier from a tracking perspective to eat packaged foods, the barcode scanner in MFP is just so handy. went to the gym today for some lower body strength. anytime I want to eat or snack when bored i come to this discussion group and read the posts, this has been so helpful.
- Day 18 11/13 171.0 lb Hopefully just some water retention from sore muscles. Been eating well, did some easy biking 45 mins
- Day 19 11/14 170.8 lb 5k run with hill drills. Foodwise I’m doing terrible with protein, I wish I could consume premiere protein or other high protein milks but dairy gives me terrible cystic acne. i have pea protein powders but they are kinda ick.
- Day 20 11/15 171.0 lb Have really been on a rollercoaster with the scale this week. My eating has been more nibbly than before, there's quite a few things making it to my mouth but not the tracker! Going to focus on tracking well this weekend.
- Day 21 11/16 171.0 lb End of week 3 down 0.8 from Day 1, not really what I was hoping for. Well at least I’ve been consistent with logging in each day! I’m determined to make more progress.
Week 4 - Down 0.8 lb from Day 1- Day 22 11/17 171.2 lb
- Day 23 11/18 171.8 lb Not letting this get me down! Trust the process
- Day 24 11/19 171.2 lb
- Day 25 11/20 171.8 lb
- Day 26 11/21 170.8 lb Food tracking going well, keeping the exercise up too. Scale doesn’t reflect it but feeling good and clothes fitting better
- Day 27 11/22 170.6 lb
- Day 28 11/23 171.0 lb Was feeling blah yesterday after a long day at work, just wanted to curl up on the couch and netflix. was scrolling this group and saw someone post how they rode their stationary bike. that instantly motivated me to hop on mine for a 45 min ride. that’s what i love about this challenge! i hope someone sees this today and decides to make a better food choice or get some movement.
Week 5 - Up 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 29 11/24 173.4 lb Staying positive despite the scale, went out for dinner last night, had wine and split a dessert 3 ways. Brought half my entree home for lunch today. Did ParkRun yesterday and got my fastest time this year! I was still beaten by someone “power walking” and looked 20 years beyond my age LOL! Its a grey and rainy day here, going to finish my coffee and head to the gym for some strength.
- Day 30 11/25 173.2 lb Super sore from the gym, I’m telling myself I’m gaining muscle 💪
- Day 31 11/26 172.2 lb Busy week, not much time for exercise so trying to focus on healthy eating. I’ve also stopped drinking diet soda, not sure why because I love it but I think it was making me snacky and hungry. Switched to flavoured bubble water which is growing on me, esp the pineapple coconut flavour!
- Day 32 11/27 171.0 lb
- Day 33 11/28 170.6 lb
- Day 34 11/29 171.4 lb
- Day 35 11/30 174.0 lb
Week 6 - Down 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 36 12/01 171.0 lb Gosh it’s been a busy several days and I have not had a moment to myself. I’ve been weighing each morning but haven’t had the time to update my posts. Well I’m a third of the way through this challenge and nowhere near where I thought I'd be. I’m not getting down about it and will just look back on the last few weeks as a learning experience. I’ve done a quite a bit of exercise, and this just reinforces what I already knew which is that exercise has no effect on weight loss (for me). Other benefits yes - but does not change the scale one bit. So, more focus on calorie deficit is needed! I ran 5k yesterday and 8k today, and tracked all my food so far. Going to have an apple as my after dinner snack. Congrats to everyone who is crushing it!
- Day 37 12/02 170.8 lb
- Day 38 12/03 170.0 lb
- Day 39 12/04 169.2 lb
- Day 40 12/05 170.6 lb In my mind I only missed posting a day or two, but obvs much longer than that. Work has been busy, trying to cram everything in before holidays…who says Dec is a slow month. Was ecstatic to see my weight drop into the 160’s again, albeit not for long. Its all good tho, still continuing to track my food. I really need to eat some protein, been snacking on too many carbs.
- Day 41 12/06 169.6 lb Yay another day in the 160’s!
- Day 42 12/07 169.6 lb
Week 7 - Down 2.8 lb from Day 1- Day 43 12/08 169.0 lb
- Day 44 12/09 170.0 lb
- Day 45 12/10 169.4 lb
- Day 46 12/11 DNW
- Day 47 12/12 169.0 lb Work is very stressful, and I constantly feel like I’m fighting a cold with a sore throat that comes and goes. Managed to get out for a run yesterday but otherwise have barely been going to the gym or stationary biking. I don’t beat myself up about it too much as long as I have my food under control. Sometimes by dinner I’m down to very few calories left but i try to reflect on where i went astray during the day and try to do better the next day.
- Day 48 12/13 168.2 lb Wow where did this come from!

Week 8 - Down 2.6 lb from Day 1- Day 50 12/15 169.2 lb Ran a total of 20km this week over 3 sessions, plus one stationary bike workout. Happy with my activity level. I have a gingerbread house kit that I put together on Friday. Ate a few of the candies plus one of the christmas tree cutouts hee hee! All in all I’ve been pretty good with treats the last few weeks.
- Day 51 12/16 169.4 lb I think I got like 38 grams of protein today, I don’t know why it’s so hard for me.
- Day 52 12/17 170.0 lb Haven’t had dinner yet and I’m only at 48 grams of protein. If anyone has tips to eat more protein (and don’t involve cottage cheese barf), I’m all ears.

- Day 69 01/03 DNW
- Day 70 01/04 171.8 lb
Week 11 Down 1.4 lb from Day 1- Day 71 01/05 171.8 lb I’ve been much more interested in exercising and movement these days vs paying attention to what I’m eating. Maybe it’s just a phase…I hope to get back to accurately tracking my food intake again. I’m seeing huge improvements in my running tho so that’s something to be happy about.
- Day 72 01/06 170.8 lb
- Day 73 01/07 170.4 lb
- Day 74 01/08 170.6 lb
- Day 75 01/09 170.2 lb
- Day 76 01/10 169 lb Nice downward whoosh after TOM, let’s see how long I can stay in the 160’s. Didn’t eat very well today but I tracked it and went for a quick run.
- Day 77 01/11 170.4 lb
- Day 78 01/12 170.2 lb
- Day 79 01/13 169.6 lb Ran an 8k race yesterday with my club, close to a thousand entrants. I finished in the bottom 10% and I’m still super happy, it was the longest I’ve ever run at that kind of speed. Training has now started for my half marathon. Tracked my food well today, determined to shed a few more pounds before the next event! Exercise has never been a good way for me to lose weight, it either makes me nap more or eat more….the body has a way of evening itself out.
- Day 80 01/14 169.2 lb Good food tracking today and managed lots of protein thanks to Costco Chicken Chunks and pork loin chops. I bought an air fryer over the holidays and its been fun to experiment with it. I enjoy seeing everyone’s daily weigh in and notes but curious what underlying strategy everyone is using. I mainly do calorie deficit/counting with my daily target set to 1650. This assumes a moderate amount of exercise baked in so I don’t eat back exercise calories noted by my fitness watch. If I’m doing something really long or intense then I might. The 1650 also represents a 250 calorie daily deficit, so should yield 0.5 lb loss per week. I’ve successfully lost about 14 lbs this way and can confirm the numbers work. However knowing that my maintenance calories would be 1900 per day, INCLUDING moderate exercise is a bit frightening. If I became more sedentary or ate just a bit more I could gain weight real fast. eek!
