Zaxa2021

I'm 36 years old, 5'3. SAHM to twin toddlers. I lost 8 lbs last round, and I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs this round.

More about my story in the spoiler

I lost my pregnancy weight (there was a lot!) plus a little extra by January 2024. I just had a couple pounds to go to meet my goal weight.

That's about the time it was starting to become apparent that my boys' delays were something more serious. After many appointments and tests, we got the answer that we didn't want. They have a serious rare genetic disorder.

My world fell apart at that point. I lived in a haze. I ate to feel better, I ate mindlessly. I started drinking more. And I gained weight. A lot. I gained over 30 pounds in just a few months.

In September, I had enough and pulled myself together. Started medication. Stopped drinking. Came back to MFP. I have lost some of that weight, but still have have about 20ish pounds to go. I'm hoping to lose at least 10 of them in these 100 days.

Round 21 Ending Weight: 147.3
Round 22 Starting Weight: 148.3

Week 1 Ending Weight: 148.9
Week 2 Ending Weight: 150.0
Week 3 Ending Weight: 145.0
Week 4 Ending Weight: 146.8

Day 29—03/04— 145.3. Short walk and a 45 min treadmill run. Food was slightly high. Happy to shed some of the excess water weight. I have a theory that energy drinks are making me bloated. I'm going to try to give them up for a week and see if my weight stabilizes a little.

Past and Future Weeks

Day 01—02/04— 148.3. An hour long outdoor walk, a 5k run on treadmill. A few too many crackers, but other than that food was pretty good. Must control snacks better!

Day 02—02/05— 147.8. An outdoor walk, no gym. Food was okay, still not great.

Day 03—02/06— 146.7. A short outdoor walk, 5k treadmill run. Food was according to plan. It was a near perfect day for weight loss.

Day 04—02/07— 146.7. Two outdoor walks, no run. Food was okay, but not great.

Day 05—02/08— 146.9. A 45 minute outdoor walk, 5k treadmill run. Food was pretty good but did end the day with a beer

Day 06—02/09— 149.9. Six mile treadmill run. But food... Way too much ice cream, as well as other poor choices. It's just one day though. Back on track today. Weight will come back down soon.

Day 07—02/10— 148.9. Just a 40 min outdoor walk. No gym. Food was not good, again. This was not a good weekend.

Week 1 Goal: 146.5
Week 1 Actual Weight: 148.9

Day 08—02/11— 149.8. Two outdoor walks and 5k treadmill run. Food was within calories but too much of the wrong things. Have to get back on track and get rid of some of this extra water weight.

Day 09—02/12— 149.0. Two outdoor walks, no run. Ate less than the past few days, but still more than I needed.

Day 10—02/13— 147.2. Outdoor walk and a 5k treadmill run. Food was good. Getting back to where I was at before the weekend.

Day 11—02/14— 147.0. No outdoor walk, but did do a 5k treadmill run. Food was pretty good. Happy weight is going in the right direction.

Day 12—02/15— 148.7. Outdoor walk and 5k treadmill run. Food was within calories but higher carbs than usual.

Day 13—02/16— 149.2. Outdoor walk. Food was a bit high but not crazy. Need to do better.

Day 14—02/17— 150.0. Outdoor walk, no run. Food was similar to yesterday- good but not great. I'm feeling disappointed and frustrated right now. I honestly don't think my eating should result in the higher weights, and the numbers say I should still be losing. But based on results, I'm wrong about that. So I'm lowering my calories, and am going to tighten up my logging. EVERY bite gets logged. No snacks. No beer (even though I have been logging my occasional end of day drinks). No extra bites slipping in throughout the day. I've been stuck in this range far too long.

Week 2 Start Weight: 149.8
Week 2 Goal: 147.0
Week 2 Actual Weight: 150.0


Day 15—02/18—147.0. Outdoor walk and a 5k treadmill run. Food was really good, I was very careful about sticking to the plan. I'm very happy seeing the drop today.

Day 16—02/19— 146.0. Outdoor walk, no gym. Food was pretty good.

Day 17—02/20— 146.4. Outdoor walk and a 45 min run on treadmill. Food was good. I feel less bloated.

Day 18—02/21— 145.7. Outdoor walk, no gym. Food was good. Happy to finally be losing, I've been pretty stuck for about 2 months.

Day 19—02/22— 146.5. Long outdoor walk (I got a little lost, so it took some extra time to wander back home), 5k treadmill run (I got a PR that I am very happy with!). Food was a smidge high in calories and a bit higher in carbs than I've been eating recently. But overall a pretty good day.

Day 20—02/23— 145.2. A new low No outdoor walk, 10k treadmill run. Food was good. I feel like I'm getting back in the groove.

Day 21—02/24— 145.0. No outdoor walk, 5k treadmill run. Food was good. I feel like I got rid of some extra water weight this week from cutting out some of the crap I've been eating. I wasn't expecting to drop as much as I did, though. I'm sure my losses will slow down soon. I'm hoping some of the wild fluctuations will also settle down a bit with more consistency.

That was not a 5 pound loss in a week, it's comparing a high fluctuation to a low one. Exactly why I feel weighing daily gives me a more accurate picture.

Week 3 Start Weight: 147.0
Week 3 Goal: 146.0
Week 3 Actual Weight: 145.0

Day 22—02/25— 145.7. Lots of outdoor walking and a less-than-heartfelt 30 min slow run on the treadmill. Food was mostly good, although I'm starting to slip in some extra crackers that I don't need again. My boys love crackers, and it's so easy to sneak a few here and there with them. I need to get that back under control.

Day 23—02/26— 145.8. Outdoor walks, no run. Food was okay.

Day 24—02/27— 147.0. Short outdoor walk and 5k treadmill run. Food was a little high in calories and higher in carbs than I aim for. I'll do better today.

Day 25—02/28— 146.8. Long outdoor walk. No run. Food was good. PMS is the only reason I can think of for why my weight is up a bit the last couple of days.

Day 26—03/01— 146.4. No walk AND no run. Oops. Food was okay, but not great. I'm kinda surprised my weight isn't higher.

Day 27—03/02— 146.2. Lots of walking and a 6 mile run. Food was good.

Day 28—03/03— 146.8. Outdoor walk and a 5k run on treadmill. Food was pretty good. I'm a bit disappointed with this week. I've been working hard and thought that I should have had some sort of loss. I'm really hoping I'll get one next week.
