Thanks @dawnbgethealthy this is such a great challenge and an amazing group of people!!! ❤️

Growing up I was taught that weighing myself daily was never a good thing!!!
as an adult I always had such a hard time to lose weight so I had nothing to lose to try this challenge… right? (Well maybe lose weight hihi).

Well here it is, doing the challenge (combined with other challenges) slowly but surely losing weight. Weighing myself daily Keeps me on track and gets me focussed if I’m gaining, maintaining or losing! Cause before this challenge by the time I would get on the scale sometimes I would get quite the surprises!! More often the ones I didn’t want/need : gaining.

Ive been doing this challenge for quite some time now. Most of the time I lost a bit or more. Last couple challenges I maintained. But overall I’m not gaining anymore and my body and health journey thank everyone in this group!!!!

We are also on Oceania Riviera. But a 10 day cruise. We did Ketchikan today. Had wonderful weather and saw bears fishing for and eating salmon. It was a great day.
we had two days in Seattle. We went to the museum of flight, pike place market, took the ferry through the bay, beneath the streets tour, smith tower, chihuly glass, MOPOP, and the sculpture garden. We packed a lot into 2 days. We ate well managing to get reservations at Monsoon and Spinasse. We also had lunch at Matt’s and Taylor Shellfish and went to Starbucks Reserve for a special coffee.

The food on the ship has been amazing. Unlike other cruise lines, it is not food food food all day every day and the portions are reasonable. I’m tracking my food, but not thinking about going over (which I am). I’m not thinking (too much) about surplus or deficit. My goal is no surplus or deficit by the end. I’m already feeling a bit ’puffy’. It is the alcohol and desserts.

Overall, having a great time.

Wow you packed a lot of touring into your time in Seattle!!! We had my 88 year old mother with us and were a little bit slower. We did Pikes Market and Chihuly.

Enjoy your cruise! Oceania had wonderful food that seemed indulgent but also in a healthy way. The portion were perfect. I did eat dessert every evening as well. Only gained 1 lb after returning due to all the walking! I did make it to the gym twice to ride the bike and my husband and I enjoyed ping pong. Have fun! We saw lots of eagles feasting on salmon in Sitka National Historic Park. Beautiful place to walk and free if you have time. Hint. If you go to Klawock get off the ship early because when we got back from running into town the people were waiting for an hour. Not much to see … we just went for a walk in Craig out to the point beyond what they call a boardwalk (LOL) and early enough to watch the professional fishermen pulling up the Halibut out of their boats using a crane … those were big fish.

Getting our travel in while we are mobile and young (hahahah) and not tied down caring for relatives where we can't slip away. Someone once said in retirement travel in your 60s. I had 4 friends lose their husbands in the past 1.5 years and I lost 2 girls friends this year as well all in their 60s. On top of that me finding a problem with my red blood count they don't yet know what it is … hopefully nothing but I think it could be linked to what my sister found last year … a blood disorder that could cause stroke. She is now on meds to prevent issues. Mine was caught really early (numbers just on the edge of wrong but outside the norm). Our father had a stroke in his 60s. His mother had a stroke in her 40s and again in her 70s. This has spurred me to go and live while I'm able. So we are packing it in by cruising April 2025 14 day Seabourn Quest in Japan, July 2025 12 day Oceania Riviera in Alaska, October 2025 20 day Atlas World Voyager in Europe, March 2026 36 day Oceania Riviera in South Pacific.

Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last


Targeting ~165 being closer to overweight instead of morbidly obese

199 - Goal this round (Lost interest and focus … need to make this my real obtainable goal next round)

8/17 - 209.6 - bike 30 min; work on creating a hand weight routine for upper body that I can use when cruising and at home.
8/18 - 209.4 - Strong & Fit class - 1 hour session we do usually 3-6 mins depending on the length of the songs ... warmup, squats, arms, back, triceps, biceps, lunges, shoulders, core and cool down
8/19 - 210.7 - last night book club chips, fajitas, cosmo … hope it is a temporary bloat. bike 30 min and worked on my new hand weight routine
8/20 - 208.5 - bike 30 min, more hand weight exercises to figure out a routine. Followup with hematologist trying to figure out why everything associated to my red blood count readings are slightly off.
8/21 - 209.3 - last night book club rich pesto pasta with grilled chicken was very heavy I could only eat about 1/3 of what they served but still it shows on the scale. So much olive oil! Bike 30 min and hand weights
