Previous Rounds Tally & 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!

Day 01-10/27-191.6-(Trend weight 192.1)
Day 02-10/28-192.2-(Trend weight 192.2)
Day 03-10/29-194.2-(Trend weight 192.4)
Day 04-10/30-192.4-(Trend weight 192.5)
Day 05-10/31-190.6-(Trend weight 192.3)
Day 06-11/01-190.6-(Trend weight 192.1) I was able to weigh in after all though this is typically a no-weigh Friday. There is no school today for my DGS so I was able to hop on the scale at around my normal time for that usual direct comparison. I’m shocked to see the scale did not go up. My meals were good yesterday but then I got into my DGS’s Halloween bag and had two fistfuls of candy bar minis / m&m’s. I give away small bottles of Sunny D and Capri Sun drink pouches (no red dyes in either) so there was no candy temptation here UNTIL he came in with a bunch of candy that he’s smart enough to ration even at age 6. I could learn a lot! Anyway, God was Good and I was blessed with the exact same weight as yesterday and a trend weight that went down. A new month and a new chance to really put a dent into our goals. Let’s make November a great month!
Day 07-11/02-190.4-(Trend weight 192.0) I was expecting a bigger drop considering yesterday was a good day. However, exercise was lacking, water was low and no TMI today so I guess I’ll just be happy with the 0.2 for now. I’ve dropped about 4 pounds in four days (since day 3 of challenge) and yet my trend weight is only dropping at a Chinese Water Torture rate. Very Frustrating but I’ll just have to keep trusting the process. I’m not sure what today will bring. I’m thinking of heading out of town so I can pick up some supplies including my new favorite low carb bread. Lots of bills to pay online though, so we’ll see. Out-of-town would mean dinner out so I better plan my lunch accordingly, just in case! Good luck everyone this round. I plan to dip into the 180’s soon come Hell or High Water. Even if it’s only 189.9 to start. Then I can work my way down from there. I would love to lose one pound per week but it just doesn’t seem to be in the cards for me. Perhaps I need a new tarot card reader LOL? Down 1.2 lbs for week 1 so I'm off to a good start, I suppose, having met my weekly goal.

Good Afternoon!
I spent part of the morning trying to get something fixed through customer service on Amazon as well as pay a couple bills. Mission accomplished!
I bit off more than I could chew this week...I will be a bit more conservative next week.
My congrats to all those who made their target weight! And to the rest of us, tomorrow is another week...we WILL succeed!! We are in this together!

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.
Day 01—10/27 — 146.6 - I worked very late last night, I left work at 2am and it was 4:30am when I got to bed. I did get up at 9am and weigh, but realized that I hadn't had nearly enough sleep and went back to my nice warm bed. So this was my better version of weight at 1pm. So far today I have basically done nothing but drink coffee and read comments from this thread. I am sitting here with ice packs on my knees and bad ankle, not really too motivated to do much today. There was public skating today and I don't like to miss it, but I just needed to rest my sore body. Extremely happy to have an entire day off today : - ) I feel like I have truly said goodbye to working 7 days per week since May of this year.
Day 02—10/28 — 147.2 - Only one short 4-hour shift at one of my jobs today, so sort of like a day off. Tomorrow is a day off, but full of appointments - my known weekday off is when I book everything. Hoping that Tuesday next week I have a clear schedule to get out onto the trails.
Day 03—10/29 — 146.6 - A day off full of appointments today. No time to harvest beets and carrots until the weekend.
Day 04—10/30 — 147.6 - ouch. Heading into my 2 - 12 hour days. First an estimate for a heatpump....
Day 05—10/31 — 146.8 - I was awake way too early for the long workday ahead. Pleased with the scale knowing that it would have been even less had I gotten a full night's sleep.
Day 06—11/01 — 145.2 - 12 hour day between the 2 jobs yesterday, and I ate dinner at close to 1am. Sometimes I just don't bother with dinner that late, but I really felt that I needed it and I was at only 700cals for the day, so I ate. Not too much, 1/2 cup of rice and around the same of beef curry. Off and running this morning. Very pleased to see this scale reading! Cry on the way up and rejoice on the way down. Such a long long way to go, but am always motivated to see a loss.
Day 07—11/02 — 143.6 - Inadvertently IF. I don't subscribe to it because I need constant energy. Usually I eat an apple at my first job of the day, but didn't get a chance. I like to keep my blood sugar even by eating pretty much constantly. This weight is likely very low because I went back to bed this morning since I have been extremely low on sleep for a couple of days. Easy day today, just one job of 4 hours this evening. I am planning on having Wings tonight after work (the frozen kind) but will keep it to 6.

I’m 5’2”, from central B.C., Canada. I’m a working senior (in my 70’s); have retired twice but just felt there was still ‘more’ to my life.
I’ve experienced a decline in strength and agility over the past 18 months, which I’m determined to recover from. I had to withdraw from a 80km bike ride in July/23 and this continues to haunt me. Today is the beginning of my journey back to completing that ride sometime during the summer/fall of 2025. My plan is to focus on replacing sloppy habits with healthier ones; My food choices are reasonably healthy so it’ll be more about the “where” and “when”’ I eat than the “what”.
Highest wt (Oct 14/24) 179.2
Ultimate goal Wt: 145
Goal this Challenge: 158
Day 01: Oct 27: 176.6 Have taken 3 days off work (in lieu of holiday pay). Hope to spend the day decluttering bedroom, kitchen and buffet. Have to get winter boots etc organized. Also need to dust off the treadmill and bike, and start with short sessions on them.
Day 2 ~ 10/28: 177 some progress on my “to do” list but began process of applying for status. Did not have ‘just before bed’ snack last night and slept well. Score 1 for the Good Guys!!
Day 3 ~ 10/29: 176
Day 4 ~10/30: 176.6
Day 5 ~ 10/31: 179.2 177.6 Will take the 177.6!! Not really sure why the gains but my ‘schedule’ is non existent. Late evening snack leaves me unhungry in the morning until about 10:30 or 11, then lunch gets shifted to mid afternoon etc etc.
Day 6 ~ Nov 1: 176.6 con’t decluttering etc. Misplaced something important so that’s a great motivator! Started a batch of sauerkraut … no peeking for 6 weeks!
Day 7 ~ 11/02: 178 back to work tomorrow. House cleaning +++.
Week 1 actual weight: 178 Need to focus on breaking down off this 3# plateau I’m bouncing around in.

The last two days have been extremely busy and I just couldn’t find the time and energy to stay on plan.
I’m back at it today, keeping track of my food and calories. Hopefully the first week of this challenge won’t be a wash when I weigh in tomorrow.

No change in weight. This week will really try to stick to whole foods and eat at my kitchen table only at meal times. No drive-by snacking. I did go over 500 cals on 2 dinners and even though I skipped breakfast, normally it's how much I have for dinner that makes the big difference.

Hello, Everyone!
Betsy age 66 - my general daily plan: eat 3+ veggie servings and 2 fresh fruit servings per day, get my protein (90g). I'm pre-diabetic, so I want to get moving and reduce simple carbs.
This group seems very positive, so thanks for the inspiration!
DAY 1
Veggies - 1
Fruit - 2
Movement - Gym machines (Hoist) using my Strong app to keep track of progress. 1st day of that workout.
Walked my dog (Benny) - 50 min.
Steps - 5,684

5'5", F, 41 yo
SW : 130.2lbs
Goals : Healthier, happier me, workout more, and improved body stats.

* Min 8c of water
* IF 16:8
* Limit alcohol to 2 units a week
* Self Reflection / Gratitude
Day 01—10/27—DNW, Pigged out. Have been feeling down because of some work and personal issues and self-soothed in a destructive way.
Day 02—10/28—130.2 lbs. Tracked calories and ate planned meals. Followed IF, hydrated and ate sufficient protein. No workout
Day 03—10/29— 127.4 lbs ( Guess, body is bouncing back from excessive eating and drinking from weekend). Tracked calories, ate planned meals, followed IF & ate sufficient protein.
Day 04—10/30— 126.5 lbs. Ate per meal plan, within calorie limits, with keen eye on protein and low carbs.
Day 05—10/31— 125.6 lbs ( loss is good, and I was under this weight like 3 weeks ago but post vacation, time of month, eating out, I expected ,my weight to have crept up. But this loss so fast is really sus. Wondering if my scale is off). Will keep tracking though. Weekend coming up, need to meal plan and stick since I devolve badly on weekends.
Day 06—11/01—126.5 lbs - Had planned lunch/breakfast but unplanned burrito/pizza for dinner. Remained in calorie limits but bein Halloween, slipped and ate extra calories in candies. Reese's pieces is my gotcha! sigh! Dinner party tonight and I have run out pre-prepped lunches. Got to be careful.
Day 07—11/02— 127.8 lbs. Diwali party. Controlled well and focused on protein in the morning. Carb heavy fried food at party but controlled my consumption. Still went ~500 above calorie limit
Week 1 Goal: 129 lbs ( -1.2lbs)
Week 1 actual weight: 127.8 lbs ( -2.4)

Hello, I'm Brian!!! 67 year, single, retired male living in rural, tiny town Canton, PA 'bout 45 minutes from the NYS border. Lived here for 4 years now, though originally from the Metro-NYC area.

About me 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!- 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! [/color]
- 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.

10/18-10/26: DNW - Vacation Northeast coast & Canada
10/27: 222.9 - Up 5.4 lbs in one week of vacation indulgence. I really hope that some of this is water retention from travel and will shed quickly in the next 2 days. The trip with my sister was great but I drank cocktails that had way more calories than my normal glass of wine. Think that was probably my biggest mistake. Starting this round in the RED!
🎂 Not the way I wanted to kick off my birthday … 64 years. Will I get to Onederland before I’m 65??? Bike 30 min
10/28: 220.1 / 221.8 - Not under 220 but I’ll take it. Today taking care of my granddaughter since she has fever and can’t go to daycare. My daughter is flying to North Carolina for work and her husband has 4 meetings at work today so they need Nana’s help with the little one. The other is going to daycare.
Weekly Goal: < ?
Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Water! ✔️
Actual Weight: 220.1
Gain / Loss this week: 2.6
Challenge Weight Loss: 0
🎯 Still in the red so I’m going to work this coming week to get back down to pre vacation weight.
10/29: 218.8 / 221.1 - Gradually shedding the travel water retention and vacation weight gain. Wondering if this is my real weight which would mean I gained a real pound on this trip ... much like all my other 4 vacations in the past 2 years. Now will be the real challenge to get rid of this pound!
10/30: 217.9 / 220.1 - My knees are bothering me again after all the walking on vacation. Today I’m going to focus on the bike exercise and go back to my PT exercises to help stretch out and strengthen the muscles around the knees.
10/31: 216.5 / 219.0 - 🎃 Yeah! A new low and my trend is under 220. All the grandkids are getting together at my daughter’s home for chili and to trick-o-treat together tonight. I’m looking forward to it! This year we have Elsa and Ana from Frozen and a beautiful pink princess.
11/1: 217.7 / 218.4 - Indulged a little too much plus didn’t get on the bike but did walk with the grandkids trick-or-treating.
11/2: 216.8 / 217.8 - Great lunch out yesterday with an old friend. I chose a fun harvest salad with grilled chicken, spring mix lettuce, pumpkin seeds, roasted beets & butternut squash, goat cheese, quinoa with Fig Balsamic dressing. It was yummy! Never tried these veggies before roasted and never liked beets before but this I loved! Only ate half and stopped when I was full.
Today the families are going to the zoo. Lots of chasing grandkids in my future morning adventures.
11/3: 218.7 / 217.9 - Too much yesterday! Daughter brought both Kolaches and donuts which I had 1 of each. Then DIL brought key lime cup cakes she made for my birthday celebration which were yummy and I had 1 after a salad lunch and another after pasta dinner. The results of the indulgence showed up on the scale this morning.
11/4:
Weekly Goal: < Pre vacation weight 217.5 to get back to my starting challenge weight!

I actually got my act together & went for a swim yesterday.The pool wasn't too busy & I Swan for half an hour.I find swimming is a good activity for clearing my mind.Grief drains you of energy so I was glad I went.I sat in the very hot steam room for all of 10 mins.
I'm not surprised my weight this morning was up 2 pounds.Saturday night my hubby & I have a steak night.Last night we shared 1 steak between us,with jacket potato,red cabbage,mushrooms & onion.Also a couple of glasses of white wine.
I had some sticky toffee pudding in the fridge leftover from my Son's birthday but I was pleased I didn't have any.
My hubby & sons are going to watch football their team Manchester United this afternoon so I'm going to the gym & hopefully a walk in the park this afternoon.
Have a great Sunday all 🙂6 -

I made buttermilk ham biscuits for dinner. They were so good we ate the entire batch. I drizzled sorghum on the extra biscuits. No regrets.5 -
I'm 36 years old, 5'3.SAHM to two beautiful toddlers, both with some special needs. Life is crazy, but I'm doing my best to make the most out of life for myself and my family.
Day 08—11/03— 152.1 I had a few extra pieces of Halloween candy than I needed, but overall did pretty okay. I did most of my exercise (outdoor walking, treadmill and exercise bike) but didn't get around to yoga. I'm going to make a soup today for lunches this coming week. I also want to make healthyish zucchini muffins that my kids also like, but I'll see if I have time.

Previous and Future WeeksWeek 1
Day 01—10/27— 155.3. My weight is much higher today than it's been recently. It's the result of enjoying a few (too many) beers with friends and eating out yesterday. I'm sure a couple pounds will fall off in the next couple of days as I get back to making good choices.
Day 02—10/28— 154.9. I made much better choices yesterday. Hopefully my body will catch up soon, and I'll return to where I was before the weekend (152, roughly). I walked and ate within calories. I also did some meal planning and prep to prepare for the week.
Day 03—10/29— 153.7. Slowly coming back down. Lots of walking, some body weight exercises, and yoga. Eating was great, with no deviations from the plan. I just need to make this the norm.
Day 04—10/30—152.6. Another good day. My husband started nibbling on the Halloween candy, but I used all of my willpower to resist. More walking and yoga.
Day 05—10/31— 153.2. I've had a really good week so far, goal wise- much better than usual. Yesterday was a bad day for me emotionally. I think part of it had a legit reason, but that just spiraled into feeling all of the current stresses of life. However, I didn't turn to food and still did the exercise I had planned. So in that way, it was a win.
Day 06—11/01— 151.2. Happy to have a bit of a woosh. I've been doing good at resisting Halloween candy so far, but we still have some in the house. I'm going to try to be good. I didn't do well at meeting my exercise goals yesterday (steps, yoga), but my eating was good. I just have to maintain this loss until tomorrow to beat my week goal...
Day 07—11/02—151.6. It's close enough to my goal for the week that I am happy with it. I added in the exercise bike at the gym to my workout. Overall, I'm quite happy with how this week went. I'm proud of most of the decisions I made

I feel good about this week. I believe that I'm going to lose this 2.2 lbs. .3oz in one day. I'll take it. 😁8 -

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- 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! [/color]
- 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.
- 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!

Good Morning....and another week begins!
Day 08—11/03— 178.2- Couldn't fall asleep last night...had to take a Melatonin. Yesterday had little appetite. My daughter admonished me for skipping meals but I can't force myself to eat. Funny....the day before yesterday I couldn't get enough to eat. I need to dig out my walking DVD today.
