100 DAYS OF WEIGHTING IN #6

@kimikats
The Doc basically said that Anxiety is not the same thing as feeling Anxious.
Anxiety and Depression are chemically based, not necessarily triggered by events or state of mind.

That is interesting that your Doc said that it is what they call it when they can't explain it. Hmm. Makes sense if all other tests come back normal.

Glad that you are starting to feel better.
I was the same, really shaken from the experience, so out of it for a few days.

Challenge #2 Day 11: Sun, 9/27: 158.4 (Not really surprised with this since this week has been blah-ish)
Day 12: Mon, 9/28: 159 [Weigh-In Day; +1.8 since last week. Disappointed naturally, but not surprised. This is a new week for me so I'll be starting fresh and hope to build my motivation back up and remind myself how far I've come thus far! I'm working out okay, but not getting the sleep I need for my body to fully recover and I think that's a big part of it. Of course my nutrition wasn't the best this week either.
Day 13: Tues, 9/29: 159.2 (I prioritized sleep over waking up early to do my cardio, which means in the evening I only have the energy to do my strength training, but that's okay. I nearly made 6 1/2 hours of sleep the last two nights, which is a little improvement for me.
Day 14: Wed, 9/30: 159.2
Day 15: Thurs, 10/1: 159.8
Day 16: Fri, 10/2: 159 (I haven't been around, but I still weighed everyday. It's still been a struggle, but I'm trying. My workouts are fine, but I haven't been tracking my macros and it really does make a difference! So I'm getting back into the swing of things as I was on a roll for so long.)

@dawnbgethealthy Very interesting! I have an appointment with my gynecologist at the end of the month (soonest I could get in!), so we'll see if there are some other tests I can take just to rule everything else out. Just glad my heart is healthy!

@dawnbgethealthy


Woot Woot!!!!! I am so happy for your new milestone! You have even managed this despite your recent vacation and birthday!!!!! You are worked hard and have earned every single ounce of success. Thank you so very much for the continued inspiration!

The 130's are yours girl!!!! You are fluctuation back & forth. I am often like a teeter-totter too. But once you've touched that cloud there is no doubt you are in the sky!

@deepwoodslady

Donna you are so sweet : - )

As I do from time to time I would like to share some of my favourite workouts with everyone. Some days I squeeze one or 2 songs in, other days (like the weekend) I do a whole bunch.
I tell you, these really whittle the waist.

Let me know if any of you try any of these and what your favourites are of them.
It takes me 10 times doing a song to get the movements.

Haha, my disclaimer, no, I don't work for fitness marshall or anything like that, I landed on it about a year ago and I love what it does for my body, my mind, my spirit, my oxygen, stress level, and my brain (because you really have to concentrate lol).


The first time that I did this one I just kept repeating it like 3 times because it is my absolute fave, and so fun to do and to learn!! It is short, 2 minutes and something, but packed with fun. Kind of hip-hop/funk? A new guest for a couple of songs, she has her own chanel. Bussin' 2.0

This one is new to me, I have only done it twice so far. Kind of latin. Me Gusta
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWLxaAupv-A

Haha, this one is like pirate-y themed. Super fun movements. Tick Tock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzJEqysvh9U

Another 2 minute one. Tap In
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmixinIcHSo

Another 2 minute one with the guest girl. Cono.
This one is pretty easy, and I have done it like 10 times now so have it down : - )

I know that you love to dance Donna, and that you like current music. So one more Lizzo:

We are about a quarter of the way through this challenge!

A wise person once said ...
"Mistakes are proof that you are trying.
Mistakes aren't an indication that you can't do it,
they're an indication that you're not giving up."

100 days gives us plenty of time to practice on creating new and better habits ... learning to strive for progress not perfection.

Keep checking in!

I like to weigh every day to keep me accountable - knowing that I will be weighing in the morning sometimes stops me from continuing to eat at night : - )
My name is Dawn. 60 year old female
I live in South East British Columbia Canada
MFP start date October 28.18 - SW 191
Ultimate goal weight - 112 - 115

My previous 3 rounds:
The 1st one:
Nov 22.19 ending February 29.20 – Start weight 158.1 EW 154.4 Total loss over 100 days: 3.7
The 2nd one:
March 01 - June 08.20 Start weight 154.4 EW 151.7 Total loss over 100 days 2.7 pounds
The 3rd one:
June 09 - September 16th Start weight 151.2 EW 142.3 Total loss over 100 days 8.9 pounds
3 rounds of 100 days each total results = 15.3 pounds lost

I started tracking my excess calories each day last round, those in the Green at the end of the tracking day. My results (based on 1200 calories per day) from 100 days were 78,627 - which over 100 days should lead to 7.86 pound loss, and I actually lost 8.9, so pretty good.

Day 1: Thurs, 9/17: 141.7 - I expect to get a lot of activity on my trip, but today is a driving day so I will have a nice workout before I leave. 919 in the green

Day 4: Sun 9/17 - 141.0 - My 60th birthday weight


Day 18: Sun, 10/4: 143.5 - 3 days at the same weight is totally new to me, i usually fluctuate like crazy. 492 in the Green.
Day 19: Mon, 10/5: 143.1 - Nice to see a drop today. I always have more time for workouts on the weekends. 735 in the green.
Day 20: Tues, 10/6: 142.1 - That is better. 912 in the Green
Day 21: Wed, 10/7: 141.5 - I don't normally lose very quickly, so suspecting that my stress gain from going back to work after 2 weeks of holidays is just evening out? 989 in the Green
Day 22: Thurs, 10/8: 139.6 - Woohoo! 904in the Green
Day 23: Fri, 10/9: 141.3 - More of a realistic number, but still glad to have touched the 130s : - ) 833 in the Green
Day 24: Sat, 10/10: 142.3 - Disappointed to end with this number. Mostly because I wanted a lower weight heading into 3 days of Canadian Thanksgiving eating. (Can't wait for the stuffing and gravy, and won't be giving it up)

4th Week Goal Weight: 141.0 - lol, trying to get back to my 60th birthday weight still : - )
4th Week Actual Weight: 142.3 - I was all over the place during this week.
Excess Calories burned this week: ( I will fill this in after today's numbers, I worked out a tonne this week)

“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou


STARTING WEIGHT: 211.3

Day 01 – 09/17 ….210.8…..Very Pleased. This is a nice way to start! Good luck everyone!
Day 02 – 09/18 ....210.6….. Happy Dance!
Day 03 – 09/19 ….211.2….. canned soup with crackers. Too much sodium but had no time to cook yesterday.
Day 04 – 09/20 ….210.8….. Better!
Day 05 - 09/21 …..211.0….. not a bad little increase after movie night with son and some pizza.
Day 06 – 09/22 …..210.8….. Traveled today so tomorrow will be pitiful. Going to get very diligent to knock it back into the atmosphere. No extra fat allowed to hang around here. Time to go!
Day 07 – 09/23 …..212.0….. After travel. I will work on this today.
Day 08 – 09/24 …..210.8….. Traveled again but kept it to one meal and a small snack and I was rewarded!
Day 09 – 09/25 …..211.6….. I hate gaining when there is no apparent reason why. Yesterday was a pretty good day. However, there was not much movement due to all the special meetings I had. So today I will focus on more movement and cautiously go to the grocery store for more water (which is a little scary on a Friday in this small tourist town). Hydration may be key today. Flush, flush, flush.
Day 10 – 09/26 …..211.4…..
Day 11 – 09/27 …..211.2….. I am not getting where I want to be in a very healthy way. Even with the scale going down I am not super happy. I know I avoided meals yesterday and just ate too much junk. It may have been lower calories overall and it may have caused a decrease on the scale but it is all about healthy and sustainable. I vow to have a better day today. One day at a time, right?
Day 12 – 09/28 …..209.8…..Yay!!! Better meals, a bit better movement. I just gotta watch those bad snacks!
Day 13 – 09/29 …..210.0….. Just a simple fluctuation. I had a very well-balanced day yesterday. Low cal for sure.
Day 14 – 09/30 …..211.0….. Chinese food yesterday with leftovers today. Still down a tad from the start.
Weight Loss in September……………….. 0.3 lb LOSS
Total Accumulated Weight Loss…..0.3 Loss


Day 15 – 10/01 …..211.0…..I finished the last of the Chinese food. Now time for healthier and less sodium!
Day 16 – 10/02 …..209.0….. Whoosh! Practiced some IF yesterday and tried to keep the calories low (AS THEY SHOULD BE) . I hope today will be another good day!
Day 17 - 10/03 …..210.4….. I salted my low sodium veggie soup because it tasted sweet and then I cheated with some dessert when I could have just had the soup and called IT dessert! Lesson learned. However, I am still down 1.6 in the last 10 days which is better than I’ve done in awhile so I will try to keep up the momentum. I am hydrating a lot today to offset any bloat.
Day 18 – 10/04 …..210.0….. Going back down, even with challenges. #nevergiveup
Day 19 – 10/05 …..211.6….. I ate healthy yesterday but dinner was not until 11:00 pm (busy day). Lots of steps also so this is a shock! No TMI this morning so that doesn’t help. Very disappointing but not disrupting. Staying on track today.
Day 20 – 10/06 …..209.4….. Whoosh!
Day 21 – 10/07 …..209.6….. A good day yesterday so this is likely a normal fluctuation.
Day 22 – 10/08 …..209.8….. Another good day. The slight fluctuation must be from no TMI (potty) x 2 days. Otherwise, all is well. Good choices are being made. Not too much movement due to a pretty yucky foot injury but otherwise, all is well.
Day 23 – 10/09 …..209.6…..Slightly better but my snacks were cheats last night. Working to stop the midnight madness!
Day 24 – 10/10 …..210.0…..Fish fry last night. Today I will be extra careful. I am going to go look at Dawn’s videos right now. Pretty exited!
