    Hi everyone.

    I am Dawn. I live in SE British Columbia Canada. I am 5'2" (or 5'3"?) and 64 years of age. I have done a bunch of these 100s now, I have lost count lol. I was sitting at 130 for quite awhile, trying desperately to get into the 120s, but gained little by little over the last couple of years. My "ideal" weight should be between 110-118 for my height, BMI, and stuff. At this point I just really want to get back into the 130s.

    Week 1 Start Weight: 144.4

    Week 1 Goal: 142.4 (seems lofty, but I was at 143.0 for two days in a row at the end of the last 100)

    Week 1 Actual Weight: 144.2- Hit 142.6 this week, the day before the end of our week, which was so close to my goal.Week 2 Start Weight: 143.2

    Week 2 Goal: 142.4 - Trying for the same goal as last week

    Week 2 Actual Weight: 143.0 (Once in 100 days Ribs eaten, hit 122.2 this week)

    Day 15β€”05/29β€” 143.6 - A jump up in weight when I thought that I would see a loss. Unavoidably late dinner due to work is what I attribute it to. Turns out that I am not getting another day off until June 24th due to one of my co-workers going off to the Philippines for some family stuff. I will have to make sure that I am getting good nutrition. The extra hours will be good to have before the property taxes are due at the beginning of July. I expect that I will get some bonus days off during the hot summer : - )

    Calories in were on point yesterday, as were burned calories out.

    My Name is Donna, Age 65. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA

    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 194.2

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Thoughts at the start of this round:

    My goal from the very beginning has been to lose one pound per week for a total of 12 pounds per challenge. I have never considered that to be too much and I never thought in a million years I would find it this difficult, even at my age and with my health problems. But it’s proved to be nothing but an uphill climb and in most cases, impossible. I am going to lower my goal to 10 pounds per challenge and see if that will feel more right, more do-able. I, again, thank you for sharing my journey with me and allowing me to travel with you on yours. It is reassuring, refreshing, enlightening and inspiring and I am forever grateful.

So far, my plan is not working but I’m not giving up yet. I just need to do better. BE better. My trend weight is still going down showing the faith my body has in me. I’m not going to let it down.

    This dashboard works for me. Green means I hit the goal, and the goal this week is to have less red than last week. This is such a slow process that I can only see it in the numbers so far.

    Yesterday's exercise included a total of 65 minutes of walks during my breaks and after work.

    I hope you'll all have a great day.

    We had a lovely evening out last night. We drove downtown and went to a local Italian restaurant and then went to Cirque du Soleil. The performers put their bodies into some unbelievable positions.
    The scale this morning was up from yesterday, but the same as the previous day. I definitely ate more than I needed at dinner. I planned for it earlier in the day by eating my normal breakfast and then have a protein forward, small and later lunch. Overall, I ended the day with a 100 calorie surplus, which is nominal in the grand scheme of things. Still a 2000 calorie deficit for week 2.

    image.png

    Notes regarding my chart are in the spoiler

    calories IN are rounded up to the next 100 (eg., tracked calories IN might be 1824, these will be rounded up to 1900)

    calories OUT are rounded down to the next 100 (eg., tracked calories OUT might be 2372, these will be rounded down to 2300)

    Exercised before breakfast column means:

    β€”> '25% before 75% after' means I ate 25% of my breakfast before exercising and 75% of my breakfast after exercising.

    β€”> 'after' means I ate all my breakfast and exercised after; usually this means I exercised in the afternoon or late morning

    β€”> 'before' (rarely seen these days after discovering from all this tracking that I do better when I exercise 'fed') means I exercised completely fasted

    I had set myself a target of 1600 calories IN as a target for completely sedentary days. I almost never meet this target because I'm pretty active. I'm keeping it in for now.

    @frankwbrown Soooo close to your goal. You'll crush it in week 3!

    @CharmingPassion one week does not define us. it is small consistent changes over a long period of time that create big results. My son suffers from migraines. I'm sorry to hear you are also a migraine sufferer. I hope they don't linger and repeat.

    @djsoos I like the way you've adjusted your week 3 goal.

    @Jon4189 2.5lbs in one week. You are crushing it!

    @plantpowered You are right, this is a slow process. The weight didn't come on overnight either. I gained my weight over four years. So far, this year, I've lost 9lbs. We are currently in week 22 of the year. That's an average of 0.4lbs per week. It is small, but I'm seeing the difference in the numbers and am starting to feel the difference in my clothing. Today is day 143 of MFP food logging. I even recorded while on vacation and have agreed with myself that I will continue to log every day at least until I've reached my weight goal. At the rate, I'm going, I should reach my weight goal by next spring.

    @age_is_just_a_number 0.4 lbs per week is fantastic. You prove that consistency is key and that habit changes need to be sustainable over time.

    @Zaxa2021 I hope your husband recovers quickly and as pain freely as possible. Daily fluctuations are the norm. But when they are a decrease, I find it gives a little boost to our motivation.

    β€œThe Avg Day loss is still very volatile, it should become more stable as we get to 50-60 days left or so. This is why I am not having weekly goals, it is the over all trend that I am going for. β€œ

    @Jon4189

    This is a great idea to keep an eye on the long-term trend. I can relate to this since short-term fluctuations can really feel like a setback even when I've been hitting my marks.
