    My FitBit wasn't syncing. So, I read the support and it said to unlink and relink. I followed those steps only to discover that now I can't connect them at all. I checked both the FitBit and MFP support channels and there is a pervasive issue that both companies are investigating. I hope it is fixed soon. But for now, I'm just living with no data sync and just manually adding what I need to between the two applications. Definitely a first world problem.

    @the_reflex Re: "Day 50 update, how is it going? I'm eating too much food, since 1st January (when I restarted tracking my intake) although I have lost weight, I'm 3 kg above what I should weigh today. When I reach goal weight, I want my average intake to be 6,000 kilojoules (or less). I've pretty much given up on the idea of reaching goal weight by the end of 2025. I have no idea when I'll reach goal weight, maybe 1st July 2026? 5 1/2 years go lose 32 kg. I also have massively overspent on food. This is the real deal for me, my parents have gone and I don't have any inheritance left. I need to train myself to keep to a budget for food. It seems to be my ultimate challenge. I don't know if I can underspend in the future for food because my eczema has worsened in the last 3 months and I may be wheat sensitive, so most of my intake will be fruit and vegetables which aren't very cheap. I think I can reach goal weight by 1st July next year, it shouldn't be too difficult. Of course, if something bad happens all bets are off."

    My husband has a saying "budget when you buy, budget when you consume". What he means by this, is when you are shopping, think about how and when you will consume the items. Then when at home, use them as considered in the store. I find writing things down a really works for me to stick to something. I think it creates self-accountability for me. My husband and two boys also have eczema, we find dairy aggravates it.

    Regarding a deadline for getting to your goal. Of course, these challenges are to help us all stay on track with a deadline in mind. But look around in the group, hardly anyone is actually 'on track', we all have ups and downs. I think those self imposed deadlines are great, but can be demotivating if we don't reach them. They also create a problem when we do reach them around "now what?". Slow and steady is the way to go. Make small changes, make those a habit, then move to the next small change. Small changes and consistency over time will yield results.

    @ptitejeanne I had to reset my fitbit with the buttons on the side (found in settings) as mine would not sync. I did it this morning but I don't know how long it was down because I've been busy. I think maybe it just went down yesterday.

    Goal This Round: 182.2 (12 pounds)

    Thoughts at the start of this round:

    Approximately this time last year (Challenge #15) I began to slowly gain weight throughout the rest of my winter and well into my Spring. I am still battling some of those pounds as we start this new challenge. This is a new opportunity to prove to myself and my family that I AM serious about getting healthier. I know I have bad eating disorders that bring about horrible eating habits. I also battle cravings because I haven’t gotten away from sugar or chocolate long enough to stop the cravings. I have such a long way to go and only a sketchy road to get there but I’ll never give up on myself or lose faith in my strength or my resolve. I’ll admit that I’m not super confident that I will ever be in the 140’s again (my ultimate goal), but I AM 100% confident that I will shed these 190’s like a bad dream and NEVER weigh this much again. I don’t know when this will happen exactly. But I do know that it will. Thanks for sharing my journey and letting me travel with you on yours.

    CURRENT WEEK:

    Day 50 β€”03/25β€”196.2 (Trend weight: 194.8) Hopefully the part will come in today for the furnace and we can finally get some steady heat. Because we tried coaxing it yesterday, it tried to run and run because of how cold it was and it burned a wire almost in half on the flame sensor. The part that shuts it down is the part we ordered. So it went from bad to worse….. Eating my emotions has done nothing to help and as we all know, it never does. Hoping for an all around better day today. Clothes are tight and I’m feeling a little like a walking piggy.

    πŸ˜ͺπŸ˜ͺπŸ˜ͺHalfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.0 lbs Gained

    πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€Day 51 --03/26β€”195.6 (Trend weight: 194.8) Part came in for furnace yesterday and it did fix an issue of a part we burned out trying to get this thing to throw some temporary heat in the house. However, it did not fix the main original problem. I ended up doing more googling until I was google-eyed and found out it may be a conflicting wiring issue with the new (Google Nest) thermostat. At my insistence they’ve tried what was recommended and it almost looks like it fixed it. Only a few hours of cycling on & off without manipulation will tell us. So basically, I figured it out myself. Well, me & google. Keeping finger crossed and prayers on lips that it runs in a consistent manner today. Good meals yesterday but bad snacks. Well, actually, good snacks but too many. No exercise except for the running up and down the basement stairs yesterday (and all week) checking, testing and manually stopping and starting the furnace. I need to continue to work on water and more intended exercise and control those snacks! I know what to do. I know where I’m weak in my journey. I just need to act and react!

    Thanks. Looks like you’re right!!

    Well with all the changes they made with the Fitbit app since it moved to Google, now I’ve been wondering lately if that’s not the whole problem!!! The Fitbit app!! Every time there’s a little change it’s not for the best with the app. Extremely disappointing for me!!! As I have been a Fitbit addict for many years but since it was bought, I don’t see any good changes.Β 

    I even wonder what will be my next watch?!? when this one doesn’t wanna work anymore for me or when I have no more patience left…

    🎯 Not in the right frame of mind to lose weight. Reminder to self … last year for our April cruise I was wearing size 18 jeans. My go to clothing for cruises had to be updated! This year I took in my favorite pants at the waist and bought size 16 jeans/pants for our cruise! I also fit in a little black dress that has been sitting in my closet for years and bought a new purple dress for the dressier nights on the cruise.

    3/1:213.1
    3/2: DNW
    3/3: 212.3
    Loss this week: - 2.4Loss this challenge: - .4

    3/4: 213.1 - DH asked what really helped me last year to lose weight … I told him salads for lunch at home and less bread/starches. He has a habit of wanting bread for breakfast, sandwiches or fast food for lunch and bread & pasta for dinner. So we are going to tackle this together … I said you can have all the bread you want but I’m going back to my habits last summer and try to lose another 15 lbs.
    3/5: 212.9 - Lent goals should help! DH decided to give up alcohol for lent until our Japan trip. I told him we should also give up drive thru fast food since we have a bad habit of grabbing something quick. AF=Alcohol Free
    3/6: DNW Bike 30 AF
    3/7: 212.6 - 2 days of homemade salads for lunch … I’m headed in the right direction. Bike 20 AF
    3/8: 212.9 - Yesterday fried shrimp, hushpuppies and fries for lunch and cheese pizza for dinner are not going to help me lose this weight! 20 min bike plus yard work. AF still! Much better food day.
    3/9: 211.1 - Yesterday healthy snacking carrots & hummus before lunch then no snacks in the afternoon & evening paid off. Bike 20. AF
    3/10: 212.1 - Today gardened and an evening walk. AF
    Loss this week: -.2
    Loss this challenge: -.6
    🎯 Better frame of mind. Salads most days for lunch and no fast food has helped. Trying to be a little more active to prepare my knees for all the stairs and walks in Japan.

    3/11: 212.4 - WALKED 2 MILES! Yeah me. Got outside and enjoyed the walk. Planted pot at the back door.Β  I loved walking around the family owned rural garden center yesterday … it is heaven to me to see all the blooming plants and very hard to decide what to buy when I’m limiting myself in order to have less yard work. 7th day of AF!
    3/12: 211.6 - Didn’t do it yesterday so today … Planning at home PT today and the bike! Need to keep this in my routine! I also want to prep my veggie garden soil before my 3 yr old granddaughter comes over tomorrow.Β  Grocery shopping, sitting down to watercolor paint and read my book club book … this month it is science fiction 'Starter Villain' by John Scalzi. I didn’t get to paint until 6:30-8:30pm but I completed my entire list of to dos! AF
    3/13: 210.8 - YYesterday bike 30 and PT.Β  Turned and amended the soil in the veggie garden.Β  Bought some premade salads when grocery shopping to help with lunch when I don’t feel like making one.Β  Today I biked 30 min before my busy day kicked in! Met my DIL and my sister for lunch. Picked up granddaughter age 3 to stay over for the night.Β  We went plant shopping … lots of different cherry tomatoes. Granddaughter and I planted all the herbs, tomatoes and flowers in my veggie bed, watered them with her can then turned on the sprinklers and she played in the sprinklers! DH bought wine so not AF but I did limit mine to 1 glass. No longer AF.
    3/14: 210.6 - Taking care of granddaughter today, made lunch already so I can spend time with her … crawfish Γ©touffΓ©e! DIL and her mom (visiting from out of town) are coming for lunch then we plan to go shopping in a historic district. Houston Rodeo tonight.Β  With all the walking at the rodeo I might count that as my exercise. Not sure what this evening out with friends will look like with food and drink … but I’ll definitely buy at least a water bottle.Β 
    3/15: 211.6 - Yesterday took a long walk with my 3 yr old granddaughter to play at the park but it did not cover the calories in crawfish Γ©touffΓ©e for lunch and then fried fish shrimp French fries as the rodeo last night. Back to more normal routines today!
    3/16: DNW - Bike 30 min
    3/17: 210.8 - Book Club at Mexican restaurant tonight. Looking up the menu and planning to be careful around the chips and salsa! Planning to bike daily before our cruise. Bike 20 min.
    Loss this week: 1.9
    🎯 Capturing my lows finally on my official weekly weigh in! Wondering iff I can break through the 210 before our trip and then stay out of the 210s with all the challenges ahead.

    3/18: 210.1 - Now if it would just go below 210!!! No exercise. AF
    3/19: 210.4 - Book Club this evening at another restaurant plus I broke my rule and ate drive through fast food hamburger and fries for lunch. Bike 30 min.3/20: DNW3/21: 211.5 - See yesterday … yep expected the scale to jump up after eating out twice yesterday and getting up at 4am to weigh in. Oh well. And then I top it with another day of fast food and then creamy pasta, bread and salad in the evening.
    3/22: 212.9 - The scale is killing me but it is my fault … the last 2 days of poor food choices. Found out a friend passed away by googling her name (she has been sick for the past year) wondering why she had not responded to my email earlier this month. Turns out she passed away and the memorial is Monday evening. This hit me hard especially since I’m attending a memorial service today for another friend.3/23: 210.8 - 20 min bike
    3/24: 210.1 - Plans to bike, PT exercises, paint, and wrap up stuff before we leave this week on our trip! Booked a 3rd cruise for this year in October in Europe. Bike 30 min.
    Loss this week: .7
    Loss this challenge: 2.6

    3/25: 210.8 - Walking the mall running errands.
    3/26: 210.4 - Don't think I'll break through under 210 before my trip to Japan
    3/27: 209.6 ✈️ Finally broke through 210! 15 hour flight today landing tomorrow in Tokyo. I've been anticipating this trip for years when I had a friend return from her 14-Day Japan's Crafts & Cherry Blossoms cruise around Japan. Turns out this particular cruise is only available every other year. It was already sold out in April 2024 for their April 2025 cruise when I tried to sign up so we were waitlisted until finally October something opened up. I checked out other cruise lines for a couple of years but they were larger ships, same number of days but double the number of sea days … and didn't get up to the North island. Checking off Japan on my bucket list.

    There are lots of other places to visit in Japan … maybe if we enjoy it we'll return. We'll see.

    I plan to monitor steps while on vacation since I'm planning to walk a ton! Praying that my knee holds up without any issues.

    @dawnbgethealthy - Muddy or not those trails and environment look beautiful for a nice walk! Congrats on getting out and taking advantage of your time off to get outside. Hope your ear clears up soon. Oh and I have my first cherry tomatoes appearing in my garden!!! My granddaughters will be thrilled to pick them upon my return. It gives them a lot of joy to run to the back of my yard behind the garage and discover red cherry tomatoes. I planted 5 different types of cherry tomatoes to ensure there is something there when they visit. This year I also planted zinnias so they have flowers to pick too.

    This is my second 100 day challenge. I lost 8 lbs last round, and I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs this round.

    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
    Week 5 Ending Weight: 144.8
    Week 6 Ending Weight: 143.7
    Week 7 Ending Weight: 144.6

    Day 50β€”03/25β€” 143.3. Long walk, 30 minutes on stair climber at the gym. Food was good. I'm not sure if I'm trusting this low weight to stick around, or if it's just popping in for a brief appearance. I've been working hard though and changing up my plan again, so I'm hoping to see some real change.

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 5 lbs. But I fluctuate a ton, and I'm comparing a low swing with today's weight to a high swing when this round started. But I'm still going to say I've lost 5 pounds. I'm happily surprised to see I'm on target to meet my 10 pound goal for the round.

    Day 51β€”03/26β€” 142.1. Outdoor walks, an easy 3 mile treadmill run. Food was within goal. Looks like I had a bit of a woosh over the last couple of days. I lowered both carbs and calories slightly. Nothing too extreme, but apparently enough to cause this drop. Probably mostly water weight, but I'm still happy with it.

    Day 52β€”03/27β€” 142.4. Short outdoor walk, stair climber at the gym. Food was good. I'm pretty happy with how things are going at the moment.

    Day 53β€”03/28β€”

    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: 194.2

    Goal This Round: 182.2 (12 pounds)

    Challenge Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

    πŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œUltimate goal: 145-155. We’ll see how I look & feel when I get there.

    Thoughts at the start of this round:

    Approximately this time last year (Challenge #15) I began to slowly gain weight throughout the rest of my winter and well into my Spring. I am still battling some of those pounds as we start this new challenge. This is a new opportunity to prove to myself and my family that I AM serious about getting healthier. I know I have bad eating disorders that bring about horrible eating habits. I also battle cravings because I haven’t gotten away from sugar or chocolate long enough to stop the cravings. I have such a long way to go and only a sketchy road to get there but I’ll never give up on myself or lose faith in my strength or my resolve. I’ll admit that I’m not super confident that I will ever be in the 140’s again (my ultimate goal), but I AM 100% confident that I will shed these 190’s like a bad dream and NEVER weigh this much again. I don’t know when this will happen exactly. But I do know that it will. Thanks for sharing my journey and letting me travel with you on yours.

    Day 51 --03/26β€”195.6 (Trend weight: 194.8) Part came in for furnace yesterday and it did fix an issue of a part we burned out trying to get this thing to throw some temporary heat in the house. However, it did not fix the main original problem. I ended up doing more googling until I was google-eyed and found out it may be a conflicting wiring issue with the new (Google Nest) thermostat. At my insistence they’ve tried what was recommended and it almost looks like it fixed it. Only a few hours of cycling on & off without manipulation will tell us. So basically, I figured it out myself. Well, me & google. Keeping finger crossed and prayers on lips that it runs in a consistent manner today. Good meals yesterday but bad snacks. Well, actually, good snacks but too many. No exercise except for the running up and down the basement stairs yesterday (and all week) checking, testing and manually stopping and starting the furnace. I need to continue to work on water and more intended exercise and control those snacks! I know what to do. I know where I’m weak in my journey. I just need to act and react!

    πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€Day 52 β€”03/27β€”195.6 (Trend weight: 194.9) Well, I was on target with the issue yesterday but furnace is still not working correctly or consistently. Me and the handyman will be all over it again today. Luckily no pipes froze last night.

    I stuck to good meal plans yesterday but ate my emotions in my β€œlow carb and approved” snacks. I definitely have been eating my emotions. It’s been a rough month with the loss of my best friend and my problems with furnace in very cold Northern Michigan. But all excuses aside, food will fix none of this. It does Nothing but fuel my body and overindulgence is overindulgence. I am better, or shall I say STRONGER than this. I hope this realization will stick with me all day and night!

    Mini challenge

    Get outside each day for at least 5 minutes in whatever weather.

    Anybody else willing to give it a try? Lol, with this new format I am not even sure how to do that! They don't even consult with users before implementing a Rich Text Editor from the 1990s?

    Some days I have to run from one job to another, but I have 2 days of split shifts at the same place, so this should be easy for me the next 2.

    Friday March 7 πŸ‘οΈ

    More than 5 minutes. I could have accepted a second job for the day, just didn't.

    Saturday March 08 - 15 minutes on that same path as the day before. Planning it again during my break today, it is the only place where it isn't spring muddy, it is paved.

    Sunday March 09 - Ditto to Saturday, 15 minutes on the path around Idlewild lake during my break.

    Monday March 10 - only a few minutes here and there out the back alley of work, smoking witt the chefs. Still nice to be outside looking up at the sky. Got my 5 minutes. Tuesday I won't be wearing shoes after my pedicure, so I will at least aim to sit on my steps or out on my porch in the fresh air.

    Tuesday March 11 - Only about 7 minutes in my flip flops with fresh polish on my toes. It got quite cool out. Wednesday and Thursday I run from one job to another, so only if I have time to go into the back alley at my first job will I get outside.

    Wednesday March 12 - Probably only like 7 minutes out the back alley of my first job of the day, smoking with the Red Cross guy from a few doors down and chatting. So hard for me to get outside on certain days even though I really want to. Some day I will retire, but not for a couple of years, and then I can be outside way more. Today will be ditto to yesterday, and then I have split shifts where I certainly have time to walk a short trail during my break.

    Thursday March 13 - Ditto to Wednesday, no time in between jobs. Today I am not taking the 3rd job, I am just going to go up to the path that is paved and have a nice walk.

    Friday March 14 - 4 times around the "park" path, so a glorious hour outdoors. Totally renewed my spirit.

    Saturday March 15 - I got up to the park again during my split shift break. I plan to do the same today. Tomorrow possibly 2 different jobs, if so I won't get a break in between.

    Sunday March 16 - Nice walk twice around the park path. It really restores me and stretches everything out.

    Monday March 17 - Twice around the park during my break on my split shift. My pedometre usually shows 100 calories burned during this (although I am not doing it for that reason) but it was only 80 calories for some reason.

    Tuesday March 18 - Didn't make it up to the park, very windy. I walked over to the post office and was out in my yard, so I got my 5+ minutes outside. Wednesday and Thursday I run from one job to the next, so outdoor time is limited to a few minutes here and there out the back alley of my day job.

    Wednesday March 19 - Only in the alley here and there, putting my face up to the sky

    Thursday March 20 - Wednesdays and Thursdays I run from one job to another. 5 minutes in the back alley of my day job is pretty much all that I can expect to get.

    Friday March 21 - 3 loops around the park (45 minutes)

    Saturday March 22 -Back alley only. I had a break on my split shift but it was so windy and I was so tired. I did some extra Fitness Marshall during my break and some stuff around the house.

    Sunday March 23 - Glorious twice around the lake at the park during my split break.

    Monday March 24 - Back alley only several times. 5+ minutes for sure.

    Tuesday March 25 - Walked to the thrift store and back, then went on a trail that I have been avoiding because of the muddy spring season. It was deceptive at the front of it, then got muddy. Normally this trail takes me only 10 minutes each way, but it was 23 as I was dodging deep mud. Still, it was really great.

    Wednesday March 26 - My 2 days where I run from one job to the next are the same - I only get outside if I go out the back alley of the Indian restaurant. No opportunity whatsoever at the second restaurant of the day. I get like 5-7 minutes outdoors on these days. It seemed like summer outside!

    Hi everyone.
    I am Dawn, 64 years old, I live in SE BC Canada
    I'm not sure how many rounds of this 100 that I have done, but quite a few. I first joined this thread at 198 pounds.
    I was sitting at 130 pounds in 2021, working very hard to get into the 120s (ugw 110-118)
    The weight that I am currently at is very hard on the joints in my knees, ankle, and feet.

    Week 1 Start Weight: 149.6
    Week 1 Goal: 146.6 - The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
    Week 1 Actual Weight: 151.2 - Superbowl backlash

    Week 2 Start Weight: 150.6
    Week 2 Goal: The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
    Week 2 Actual Weight: 150.0

    Week 3 Start Weight: 150.2
    Week 3 Goal: Anything below 149
    Week 3 Actual Weight: 149.0

    Week 4 Start Weight: 147.4
    Week 4 Goal: 146.4
    Week 4 Actual Weight: 150.6 : - (Week 5 Start Weight: 150.4


    Week 5 Goal: end the fibre supplement
    Week 5 Actual Weight: 149.6

    Week 6 Start Weight: 149.4
    Week 6 Goal: 147.4
    Week 6 Actual Weight: 149.4 - hit 148.6 onceWeek 7 Start Weight: 149.6
    Week 7 Goal: 147.6
    Week 7 Actual Weight: 151.4

    Day 50β€”03/25β€” 150.0 - I was so very tired yesterday. My shift finished around 3:15, but I just couldn't go to a trail. I think that I was in bed by 4:30pm. Working 6 days a week is not ideal but I guess better than the 7 days per week that I did last year. Taking a big rest day today, not planning on putting on shoes which exacerbate my bad feet and ankle. Drizzling rain here, but not windy like it has been for the last 3 days. Well, maybe I will go up to a trail a little later today after all.

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost gained so Far: 0.4

    Day 51β€”03/26β€” 150.4 - I am dealing with a blocked ear. This happens to hearing aide wearers from time to time. I tried to fix it myself with a series of drops, like I did last week, but this time it didn't work. The only appointment that I could get with my doctor to blow it out is for 11am this morning, and I normally get to work around 10:45 to open the restaurant. I will just have to be late for work, because I couldn't answer phones or hear people.

    Day 52β€”03/27β€” 150.4 - Late dinner. I once tried to not eat dinner at all for awhile. Lol, I am always trying something. I do keep tablespoons, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup measurers on hand. One of my small changes back around 200 pounds was to measure the coffee cream that I put into my coffee. It has long ago become a habit. That and many other small things that I consistently have implemented. Searching for the next thing/change that is going to get me back to 130 and below.

But as is often the case with my excuses and procrastinationβ€”particularly when it comes to exerciseβ€”it doesn’t get done. This leaves me feeling guilty and disappointed in myself. I just need to figure out how to consistently turn my good intentions into action.

    I'm a bit of an Excel junkie. I finally decided to create myself an Excel spreadsheet for tracking, rather than typing everything everyday. The weight number isn't going in the direction I want, but I feel good.

    Question for everyone: How do you know whether you've read a previous post? I find when I log in everyday, it is a little easier because I can look at my last post and know that everything since then is new. But, when I skip a day or two, then I find it a little overwhelming to go back and read through all the posts. I'm interested to know how other people are tackling this. Thank you,

    This is my second 100 day challenge. I lost 8 lbs last round, and I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs this round.

    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
    Week 5 Ending Weight: 144.8
    Week 6 Ending Weight: 143.7
    Week 7 Ending Weight: 144.6

    Day 50β€”03/25β€” 143.3. Long walk, 30 minutes on stair climber at the gym. Food was good. I'm not sure if I'm trusting this low weight to stick around, or if it's just popping in for a brief appearance. I've been working hard though and changing up my plan again, so I'm hoping to see some real change.

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 5 lbs. But I fluctuate a ton, and I'm comparing a low swing with today's weight to a high swing when this round started. But I'm still going to say I've lost 5 pounds. I'm happily surprised to see I'm on target to meet my 10 pound goal for the round.

    Day 51β€”03/26β€” 142.1. Outdoor walks, an easy 3 mile treadmill run. Food was within goal. Looks like I had a bit of a woosh over the last couple of days. I lowered both carbs and calories slightly. Nothing too extreme, but apparently enough to cause this drop. Probably mostly water weight, but I'm still happy with it.

    Day 52β€”03/27β€” 142.4. Short outdoor walk, stair climber at the gym. Food was good. I'm pretty happy with how things are going at the moment.

    Day 53β€”03/28β€” 142.5. Long walk, no gym. Food was good. Goal for the weekend is to stay on track and limit the meals out/ordering in to a maximum of one.

    Good Fri-yay!

    @dawnbgethealthy , what a beautiful trail! Thank you for sharing those pics!

    @Jimnkc , congrats on the midpoint loss….WTG!

    @Lilylake3k , I envy you that trip. My brother lives in Japan and I wish I could visit. Have fun!

    Day 51β€”03/26β€” 171.6 - I forgot AGAIN to weigh myself yesterday before I had breakfast out so I can't comment on my halfway mark. BUT I can see it didn't negativity affect my weight. I am inching closer to the 160's. Slow and steady wins the race.

    Day 52β€”03/27β€” 172.6 - Have a dental appointment today. Does anxiety cause weight gain? LOL!

    Day 53β€”03/28β€” 172 - Dentist went well…. that's over for another 6 months. I didn't have anything to eat all day until about 4 in the afternoon and it tasted terrible because the dentist painted some white sticky stuff on my gums that made everything I ate taste like that stuff…bleah! Haven't decided on what's on the menu today yet. But I will be good.

    Mini challenge

    Get outside each day for at least 5 minutes in whatever weather.

    Anybody else willing to give it a try? Lol, with this new format I am not even sure how to do that! They don't even consult with users before implementing a Rich Text Editor from the 1990s?

    Some days I have to run from one job to another, but I have 2 days of split shifts at the same place, so this should be easy for me the next 2.

    Friday March 7 πŸ‘οΈ

    More than 5 minutes. I could have accepted a second job for the day, just didn't.

    Saturday March 08 - 15 minutes on that same path as the day before. Planning it again during my break today, it is the only place where it isn't spring muddy, it is paved.

    Sunday March 09 - Ditto to Saturday, 15 minutes on the path around Idlewild lake during my break.

    Monday March 10 - only a few minutes here and there out the back alley of work, smoking witt the chefs. Still nice to be outside looking up at the sky. Got my 5 minutes. Tuesday I won't be wearing shoes after my pedicure, so I will at least aim to sit on my steps or out on my porch in the fresh air.

    Tuesday March 11 - Only about 7 minutes in my flip flops with fresh polish on my toes. It got quite cool out. Wednesday and Thursday I run from one job to another, so only if I have time to go into the back alley at my first job will I get outside.

    Wednesday March 12 - Probably only like 7 minutes out the back alley of my first job of the day, smoking with the Red Cross guy from a few doors down and chatting. So hard for me to get outside on certain days even though I really want to. Some day I will retire, but not for a couple of years, and then I can be outside way more. Today will be ditto to yesterday, and then I have split shifts where I certainly have time to walk a short trail during my break.

    Thursday March 13 - Ditto to Wednesday, no time in between jobs. Today I am not taking the 3rd job, I am just going to go up to the path that is paved and have a nice walk.

    Friday March 14 - 4 times around the "park" path, so a glorious hour outdoors. Totally renewed my spirit.

    Saturday March 15 - I got up to the park again during my split shift break. I plan to do the same today. Tomorrow possibly 2 different jobs, if so I won't get a break in between.

    Sunday March 16 - Nice walk twice around the park path. It really restores me and stretches everything out.

    Monday March 17 - Twice around the park during my break on my split shift. My pedometre usually shows 100 calories burned during this (although I am not doing it for that reason) but it was only 80 calories for some reason.

    Tuesday March 18 - Didn't make it up to the park, very windy. I walked over to the post office and was out in my yard, so I got my 5+ minutes outside. Wednesday and Thursday I run from one job to the next, so outdoor time is limited to a few minutes here and there out the back alley of my day job.

    Wednesday March 19 - Only in the alley here and there, putting my face up to the sky

    Thursday March 20 - Wednesdays and Thursdays I run from one job to another. 5 minutes in the back alley of my day job is pretty much all that I can expect to get.

    Friday March 21 - 3 loops around the park (45 minutes)

    Saturday March 22 -Back alley only. I had a break on my split shift but it was so windy and I was so tired. I did some extra Fitness Marshall during my break and some stuff around the house.

    Sunday March 23 - Glorious twice around the lake at the park during my split break.

    Monday March 24 - Back alley only several times. 5+ minutes for sure.

    Tuesday March 25 - Walked to the thrift store and back, then went on a trail that I have been avoiding because of the muddy spring season. It was deceptive at the front of it, then got muddy. Normally this trail takes me only 10 minutes each way, but it was 23 as I was dodging deep mud. Still, it was really great.

    Wednesday March 26 - My 2 days where I run from one job to the next are the same - I only get outside if I go out the back alley of the Indian restaurant. No opportunity whatsoever at the second restaurant of the day. I get like 5-7 minutes outdoors on these days. It seemed like summer outside!

    Thursday March 27 - Just 5-ish minutes in and out of the back alley to put my face to the sky.

    Hi everyone.
    I am Dawn, 64 years old, I live in SE BC Canada
    I'm not sure how many rounds of this 100 that I have done, but quite a few. I first joined this thread at 198 pounds.
    I was sitting at 130 pounds in 2021, working very hard to get into the 120s (ugw 110-118)
    The weight that I am currently at is very hard on the joints in my knees, ankle, and feet.

    Week 1 Start Weight: 149.6
    Week 1 Goal: 146.6 - The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
    Week 1 Actual Weight: 151.2 - Superbowl backlash

    Week 2 Start Weight: 150.6
    Week 2 Goal: The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
    Week 2 Actual Weight: 150.0

    Week 3 Start Weight: 150.2
    Week 3 Goal: Anything below 149
    Week 3 Actual Weight: 149.0

    Week 4 Start Weight: 147.4
    Week 4 Goal: 146.4
    Week 4 Actual Weight: 150.6 : - (Week 5 Start Weight: 150.4

    Week 5 Actual Weight: 149.6

    Week 6 Start Weight: 149.4
    Week 6 Goal: 147.4

    Week 7 Goal: 147.6
    Week 7 Actual Weight: 151.4

    Day 50β€”03/25β€” 150.0 - I was so very tired yesterday. My shift finished around 3:15, but I just couldn't go to a trail. I think that I was in bed by 4:30pm. Working 6 days a week is not ideal but I guess better than the 7 days per week that I did last year. Taking a big rest day today, not planning on putting on shoes which exacerbate my bad feet and ankle. Drizzling rain here, but not windy like it has been for the last 3 days. Well, maybe I will go up to a trail a little later today after all.

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost gained so Far: 0.4

    Day 51β€”03/26β€” 150.4 - I am dealing with a blocked ear. This happens to hearing aide wearers from time to time. I tried to fix it myself with a series of drops, like I did last week, but this time it didn't work. The only appointment that I could get with my doctor to blow it out is for 11am this morning, and I normally get to work around 10:45 to open the restaurant. I will just have to be late for work, because I couldn't answer phones or hear people.

    Day 52β€”03/27β€” 150.4 - Late dinner. I once tried to not eat dinner at all for awhile. Lol, I am always trying something. I do keep tablespoons, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup measurers on hand. One of my small changes back around 200 pounds was to measure the coffee cream that I put into my coffee. It has long ago become a habit. That and many other small things that I consistently have implemented. Searching for the next thing/change that is going to get me back to 130 and below.

    Day 53β€”03/28β€” 149.4 - I had a very hard time sleeping last night. Not bidding on a job for tonight, just going to do my day shift at the Indian restaurant. On Fridays I get a group of seniors that get picked up all over town, taken to Safeway shopping, and then brought in to my restaurant for coffee and chatting. Highlight of my week : - )
