    @deepwoodslady

    Well, I was going to ask how the heart doctor went.
    That seems like a very sound decision to centralize it like that.
    It really isn't too long of a wait at all.

    I have many doctors in the University of Michigan hospital in the Ann Arbor area from when I grew up and lived in the metro detroit area suburbs. I just recently found out that they have purchased some key hospitals and offices throughout Michigan and renamed them Mid Michigan Medicine. It was nice to find out that one of the offices is less than 2 hours from me. The closest hospital in their system remains about 3 hours from me but is closer than Ann Arbor for non-cancer things I may need including heart procedures. If I had known this months ago, I would have just started with them! Anyhoo, I am excited to find out what is going on soon.

    Accumulated Loss or Gain: 3.8 lb GAIN


    Day 22…..05/31…..203.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) A little bit better yesterday but movement could have improved. It was 91 degrees (no air conditioning) and just too uncomfortable to do much. Today is scheduled for 91 also. A scortcher!

    Day 23…..06/01…..203.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) I decided to cancel the heart doctor yesterday and go to a different medical group which is affiliated with a much better hospital. It will also coordinate my medical records much better since I have other doctors in the same system. I first chose the other because it is only about 2 hours away and the place that most folks around my area go. But I changed my mind for all the reasons above. The appointment is on June 14th I think so I won’t have to wait long. I think it will be worth the extra drive. My weight and trend weight is exactly the same as yesterday. I had a bit of a binge last night due to having too light of a dinner. It was not garbage food but was still too many calories and carbs. I’ll plan a better dinner today. I was painting all day yesterday with a very strong smelling paint in the 91 degree heat. No appetite until I was clean and in bed.

    Day 24…..06/02…..204.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) Cereal last night probably did me in. Milk always affects me with bloating too and I used regular 2%. Travel today and an interview with a new handyman this morning so it’s going to be a tight fast-paced day.

    History & Goals
    Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.

    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug

    * 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    My goal for 2022 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)


    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

    Day 1: Tues, 5/10: 216.5 No exercise. 1532 cal (-180 red), 66 net carbs, 1.5 glass wine. DH & I tested positive on Tuesday 5/3 for COVID19. We quarantined per CDC for 5 days. I was asymptomatic except for a headache the first day and then tested negative for Covid on Monday 5/9 so I’ve been cleared. DH still has flu like symptoms and tested positive on Mon. We are using the CUE system which is a PCR like test that DH’s company provided employees.
    Day 2: Wed, 5/11: 216.4 Short walk .6 miles. 1725 cal (-346 red), 45 net carbs, 2 glass wine.
    Day 3: Thurs, 5/12: 216.4 No exercise. Played with my 4 month old granddaughter instead :) 1631 cal (-330 red), 107 net carbs, 2 glass wine. Lunch at Mexican restaurant with DIL where we split fajitas making salads and neither of us at the rice, beans or tortillas. But of course we ate chips! Happy that the scale did not blow up on that minor splurge.
    Day 4: Fri, 5/13: 218.4 Cancelled our trip. DH still has congestion and fatigue from his bout of COVID. My students from ESL class gave me a dozen beautiful roses :) No exercise. 1839 cal ( -507), 126 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Blew my focus on healthy eating … sabotaging myself with fried okra & cornbread for lunch and pizza at dinner! What am I thinking!
    Day 5: Sat, 5/14: 217.3 Walk 3.2 miles. Why can’t I get back into the groove. I know my knee hurts but that is not excuse for skipping my strength class! 1562 cal (-73 green), 93 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not bad given that DH & I picked up lunch and took it over to our daughter today to check on her … she had the pregnancy blues. Made up for it with salmon with spinach & white beans easy light dinner.

    1st Week Goal Weight: <215
    1st Week Actual Weight: 217.3
    1st Week Weight GAIN: .9
    Success this week is that I actually journaled every bite and started walking a little again.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 6: Sun, 5/15: 217.5 Walked 3.7 miles, trimmed bushes. 1624 cal (59 green), 91 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
    Day 7: Mon, 5/16: 217.2 No exercise. Did not even wear my Apple Watch so no credit for steps either. 2518 cal (-1218 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine, 2 bourbon & diet cokes, THREE cupcakes! Did okay until DH asked for me to cook a dessert and I made something I liked too. Sent home most of the cupcakes with my kids after dinner. Thought about not completing my journal but then I didn’t want to get into bad habits so reporting in the mess of a day!
    Day 8: Tues, 5/17: 219.2
    Day 9: Wed, 5/18: 219.1 Strength Class 1 hr
    Day 10: Thurs, 5/19: 219.4 Walked 3.2 miles
    Day 11: Fri, 5/20: 219.2 Strength Class 1 hr
    Day 12: Sat, 5/21: 218.4 Walked .5 miles, Strength Class 1 hr
    2nd Week Goal Weight: <215
    2ndWeek Actual Weight: 218.4
    1st Week Weight GAIN: 1.1
    Success with picking back up on my Strong & Fit classes again but my walking is still a struggle in the heat. My knee feels a little better and I think the lunges and squats are helping. However, I blew off journaling every bite because I was eating everything. That has to stop! Starting to journal again this morning.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 13: Sun, 5/22: 218.4 Walked 2.6 to drop off library book instead of taking the car. 2041 cal (-397 red), 146 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Spent most of the day practicing both sketching and spanish.
    Day 14: Mon, 5/23: 219.5 Walk 1.25 miles. 1701 cal (-227 red), 132 net carbs, AF. Pancakes for breakfast and hamburger w/ tater tots for dinner blew up my carb count for the day.
    Day 15: Tues, 5/24: 218.1 Walked 2+1 miles, 1420 cal (-120 red), 42 net carbs, AF.
    Day 16: Wed, 5/25: 218.3 Strength training class 1 hr, 2534 cal (-1010 red), 256 net carbs, 3 glasses of wine but the real indulgence was the 5 homemade pumpkin cookies!
    Day 17: Thurs, 5/26: 219.0 Walked 3.2 + 1.3 miles, 1890 cal (-590 red), 188 net carbs, 1 rum & Diet Coke and 4 of those darn cookies. Skipped the steak and veggie dinner planned and we fired up a frozen pizza instead for dinner.

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 with my sister cleaning out mom’s house since she has an offer … mom will move into my smaller house next door if the sell goes through. Tons of stuff there as she loved shopping garage sales and it was my grandfathers before. The house has been in the family since 1954 and it grew organically with many additions and remodels over the years.
    Managing my mother’s expectations and the entire situation has been really challenging and I’ve totally derailed on my weight loss journey losing all focus on myself.

    @dawnbgethealthy - Oh you poor thing! That did look like metal. I really hope that there is no permanent damage to your eyes and that you are recovering quickly. Very scary!

    WEEK 3 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.2 lb LOSS
    Accumulated Loss or Gain: 3.8 lb GAIN


    Day 22…..05/31…..203.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) A little bit better yesterday but movement could have improved. It was 91 degrees (no air conditioning) and just too uncomfortable to do much. Today is scheduled for 91 also. A scortcher!

    Day 23…..06/01…..203.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) I decided to cancel the heart doctor yesterday and go to a different medical group which is affiliated with a much better hospital. It will also coordinate my medical records much better since I have other doctors in the same system. I first chose the other because it is only about 2 hours away and the place that most folks around my area go. But I changed my mind for all the reasons above. The appointment is on June 14th I think so I won’t have to wait long. I think it will be worth the extra drive. My weight and trend weight is exactly the same as yesterday. I had a bit of a binge last night due to having too light of a dinner. It was not garbage food but was still too many calories and carbs. I’ll plan a better dinner today. I was painting all day yesterday with a very strong smelling paint in the 91 degree heat. No appetite until I was clean and in bed.

    Day 24…..06/02…..204.4…..(Trend weight 203.6) Cereal last night probably did me in. Milk always affects me with bloating too and I used regular 2%. Travel today and an interview with a new handyman this morning so it’s going to be a tight fast-paced day.

    Day 25…..06/03…..(b)204.8[/b]…..(Trend weight 203.8) Well….the NSV is that I didn’t bring any garbage food home from out of town. No TMI today or weight may have been the same. Pushing water today, very low hydration yesterday. 3 hours of sleep last night.

    @Lilylady3k

    I am glad that your Mom has you (and your sis) to help with all of this. I can see how you might not have time for yourself with all of that going on.
    Kind of sad to be selling the house that has been in the family since 1954.
    Things will be tight in there when you all go to visit, but you won't have 2 places to maintain anymore down there.

    Such great news that your hubby is pulling the pin and going to retire!!!
    You will begin writing the newest chapter : - )

    @deepwoodslady

    Great news about a possible new handyman. Crossing my fingers for you : - )

    I grew up in Toronto, so I am familiar with Ann Arbour and Detroit. How fabulous that the same medical group from up there is now close to you.

    I am Dawn. 61yrs old, 5'2"
    Ideal body weight for my stats is 112. Many rounds away from that, and quite honestly I would be happy to get to 118 some day.
    I would really like to lose 7 pounds this round.

    I lost 1.8 pounds the last 100, which was a departure from gaining in the last 4 of them.


    1st Week Goal Weight: 135.0
    1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8
    Excess calories burned (in the green): Shorter week, 1874, which only averages to 372.8 per day, less than usual

    2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.0 - seems ambitious.
    2nd Week Actual Weight: No idea, wonky scale on holiday with me read 48 pounds
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 5167 - very happy with that.


    3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A
    3rd Week Actual Weight: 138.3 - had Ribs this week
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 3976. Even after having a RED from Ribs, I still averaged 568 per day overall.

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: 138.1 - Glad to see a tiny drop after Ribs. It may take awhile to make up for that, but kind of worth it. I don't plan to have Ribs again until the next 100
    Day 21: Mon, 5/30: 137.7 - Busy week ahead, glad that I prepped so much food and made meal plans over the weekend.
    Day 22: Tues, 5/31: 137.7 - I worked late, so had dinner late. Since Ribs I have kept my calories to around 1100 in order to try to mitigate that Red day.
    Day 23: Wed, 6/1: DNW - Too much water drinking early, and thought that I would go back to bed but didn't.
    Day 24: Thurs, 6/2: 137.8 - I am okay with that.
    Day 25: Fri, 6/3: 137.5 - Kind of hoped for a big drop today from a huge calorie burn yesterday, but the scale only seems to move big when it is in the other direction. We are about to get many days of rain here, glad that I got all of my 34 pepper plants into the ground before and after work yesterday. They don't love wet feet, but they have been sitting on my covered porch for too long in their starter pots. I really fell behind in everything due to my eye injury. I am nowhere near finished, but might try to get the onions all in even during the rain on the weekend. The grass won't get cut of course when it is so wet, but I should be able get all of my porch flowers planted. Really, cutting the grass doesn't feel too productive. I honestly can never keep up with everything, so sort of pick my priorities. Planning an indulgent evening tonight.
    Day 26: Sat, 6/4:

    4th Week Goal Weight: 136.1
    4th Week Actual Weight:
    Excess calories burned (in the green):

    Start weight for this round: 136.0
    Goal weight for this round 129.0

    @dawnbgethealthy - How is your eye doing? Is it clear and fine or still feel like sandpaper?
    Love that you were able to work on your veggie garden. Things are burning up down here in Houston ... heat is through the roof without rain! I have one flat of flowers that I'm pampering with hopes to plant but they have been sitting there since April! OH MY! I'm amazed they are alive but they are near a sprinkler in the shade. My goal is to put them in the ground next week!

    Busy days here again.
    Yesterday after my strength training class I cut DH's hair. DH & I went to visit our son, DIL and our dear granddaughter that is now 5 months old! We had not seen her in 3-4 weeks and she is on the move and a little giggler.
    This morning strength training class, hair cut, standard poodle was groomed too and then lunch & shopping with my daughter after her OBGYN appt. Baby is doing well.
    Tomorrow my best friend and I are having a girls brunch (my daughter and both DILs are joining us) ... and she is meeting my granddaughter! And she is my daughter's godmother and she hasn't seen my daughter since she has been pregnant. So lots of fun.
    Then my brother in law has a retirement party in the evening ... he sold his architecture firm and there is a big party planned at a brewery.
    Sunday my sister and I are going to a small community play :)
    All this and still on the hook talking to the buyer's real estate agent, working with my mom, talking her through her garage sale ... sell it mom ... this is not about how much money you can make but how much stuff you can get rid of so that we don't have to pack it up and move it elsewhere! I've asked her to go half price tomorrow ... it is a very remote area and few customers so she needs to be aggressive to get rid of stuff! But it is not in her nature. She wants to overcharge for everything. argh

    My goal for 2022 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)


    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

    Day 1: Tues, 5/10: 216.5 No exercise. 1532 cal (-180 red), 66 net carbs, 1.5 glass wine. DH & I tested positive on Tuesday 5/3 for COVID19. We quarantined per CDC for 5 days. I was asymptomatic except for a headache the first day and then tested negative for Covid on Monday 5/9 so I’ve been cleared. DH still has flu like symptoms and tested positive on Mon. We are using the CUE system which is a PCR like test that DH’s company provided employees.
    Day 2: Wed, 5/11: 216.4 Short walk .6 miles. 1725 cal (-346 red), 45 net carbs, 2 glass wine.
    Day 3: Thurs, 5/12: 216.4 No exercise. Played with my 4 month old granddaughter instead :) 1631 cal (-330 red), 107 net carbs, 2 glass wine. Lunch at Mexican restaurant with DIL where we split fajitas making salads and neither of us at the rice, beans or tortillas. But of course we ate chips! Happy that the scale did not blow up on that minor splurge.
    Day 4: Fri, 5/13: 218.4 Cancelled our trip. DH still has congestion and fatigue from his bout of COVID. My students from ESL class gave me a dozen beautiful roses :) No exercise. 1839 cal ( -507), 126 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Blew my focus on healthy eating … sabotaging myself with fried okra & cornbread for lunch and pizza at dinner! What am I thinking!
    Day 5: Sat, 5/14: 217.3 Walk 3.2 miles. Why can’t I get back into the groove. I know my knee hurts but that is not excuse for skipping my strength class! 1562 cal (-73 green), 93 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not bad given that DH & I picked up lunch and took it over to our daughter today to check on her … she had the pregnancy blues. Made up for it with salmon with spinach & white beans easy light dinner.

    1st Week Goal Weight: <215
    1st Week Actual Weight: 217.3
    1st Week Weight GAIN: .9
    Success this week is that I actually journaled every bite and started walking a little again.

    Day 7: Mon, 5/16: 217.2 No exercise. Did not even wear my Apple Watch so no credit for steps either. 2518 cal (-1218 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine, 2 bourbon & diet cokes, THREE cupcakes! Did okay until DH asked for me to cook a dessert and I made something I liked too. Sent home most of the cupcakes with my kids after dinner. Thought about not completing my journal but then I didn’t want to get into bad habits so reporting in the mess of a day!
    Day 8: Tues, 5/17: 219.2

    Success with picking back up on my Strong & Fit classes again but my walking is still a struggle in the heat. My knee feels a little better and I think the lunges and squats are helping. However, I blew off journaling every bite because I was eating everything. That has to stop! Starting to journal again this morning.

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 with my sister cleaning out mom’s house since she has an offer … mom will move into my smaller house next door if the sell goes through. Tons of stuff there as she loved shopping garage sales and it was my grandfathers before. The house has been in the family since 1954 and it grew organically with many additions and remodels over the years.
    Managing my mother’s expectations and the entire situation has been really challenging and I’ve totally derailed on my weight loss journey losing all focus on myself.

    Day 26…..06/04…..204.4…..(Trend weight 203.8) No TMI x 2. Low calorie burn yesterday. Low step count. However, Plenty of sleep last night due to very little sleep the night before. Happy to see a nearly ½ pound drop on the scale. Probably because I hit just over 8 hours of sleep which is double my usual. Low level energy today and yesterday. A lot of fatigue. Probably my glucose levels causing it. It’s very unusual for me to feel this way.

    @KayHBE
    You are making great progress!!!

    @deepwoodslady
    Sometimes it takes a few days of good sleep to feel good, especially after being sleep deprived for a very long time.
    I also find that some foods make me feel tired and others energize me.

    @Lilylady3k
    Thanks for asking about my eye : - ) I think that it is mostly better. I have learned my lesson though and am wearing safety glasses at all times while doing things in my yard.
    Wow you have a very busy life, do you wonder how you ever had time for anything before you retired?
    So much fun stuff for you this week : - )
    Sorry that it is too hot to plant your flowers.
    We are getting 5-6 days of rain, and we normally don't get rain here at all. I haven't gotten my onions in yet, but rain or not I think that I will put them in today. I still have all of my flower pots to do still. I am behind on stuff due to the eye injury and then having to catch up on so many of my Foster Grant jobs that I had postponed because of it. My pepper beds were a full week behind to dig up, amend the soil, add new stuff and finally plant. It was the tomato planting day where I received eyefulls of dirt.

    I had more pepper plants than bed space, so I have 4 of them in big pots. I still have to mulch everything, but normally put the onions in with the peppers.

    It took me many hours to dig up the beds, they are 3 feet deep and 3X6. Here they are all prepared to plant:

    ke7dxq3dxffm.png

    I planted the next day. I will get a photo of them after a few days of rain have settled them in.

    I am Dawn. 61yrs old, 5'2"
    Ideal body weight for my stats is 112. Many rounds away from that, and quite honestly I would be happy to get to 118 some day.
    I would really like to lose 7 pounds this round.

    I lost 1.8 pounds the last 100, which was a departure from gaining in the last 4 of them.


    1st Week Goal Weight: 135.0
    1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8
    Excess calories burned (in the green): Shorter week, 1874, which only averages to 372.8 per day, less than usual

    2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.0 - seems ambitious.
    2nd Week Actual Weight: No idea, wonky scale on holiday with me read 48 pounds
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 5167 - very happy with that.


    3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A
    3rd Week Actual Weight: 138.3 - had Ribs this week
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 3976. Even after having a RED from Ribs, I still averaged 568 per day overall.

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: 138.1 - Glad to see a tiny drop after Ribs. It may take awhile to make up for that, but kind of worth it. I don't plan to have Ribs again until the next 100
    Day 21: Mon, 5/30: 137.7 - Busy week ahead, glad that I prepped so much food and made meal plans over the weekend.
    Day 22: Tues, 5/31: 137.7 - I worked late, so had dinner late. Since Ribs I have kept my calories to around 1100 in order to try to mitigate that Red day.
    Day 23: Wed, 6/1: DNW - Too much water drinking early, and thought that I would go back to bed but didn't.
    Day 24: Thurs, 6/2: 137.8 - I am okay with that.
    Day 25: Fri, 6/3: 137.5 - Kind of hoped for a big drop today from a huge calorie burn yesterday, but the scale only seems to move big when it is in the other direction. We are about to get many days of rain here, glad that I got all of my 34 pepper plants into the ground before and after work yesterday. They don't love wet feet, but they have been sitting on my covered porch for too long in their starter pots. I really fell behind in everything due to my eye injury. I am nowhere near finished, but might try to get the onions all in even during the rain on the weekend. The grass won't get cut of course when it is so wet, but I should be able get all of my porch flowers planted. Really, cutting the grass doesn't feel too productive. I honestly can never keep up with everything, so sort of pick my priorities. Planning an indulgent evening tonight.
    Day 26: Sat, 6/4: 138.5 - Had some more indulgent foods last night.

    100 Days of Accountability 5/10-8/17
    I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

    Female, Age 61, 5’3”
    Challenge Starting Weight: 216.4 (5/9)
    Challenge Goal: <200
    History & Goals
    Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
    Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
    2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022)
    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
    🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
    * Prior to Oct roadtrip damage: 205
    * Onederland: 199
    * Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
    * 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    My goal for 2022 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)


    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

    Day 1: Tues, 5/10: 216.5 No exercise. 1532 cal (-180 red), 66 net carbs, 1.5 glass wine. DH & I tested positive on Tuesday 5/3 for COVID19. We quarantined per CDC for 5 days. I was asymptomatic except for a headache the first day and then tested negative for Covid on Monday 5/9 so I’ve been cleared. DH still has flu like symptoms and tested positive on Mon. We are using the CUE system which is a PCR like test that DH’s company provided employees.
    Day 2: Wed, 5/11: 216.4 Short walk .6 miles. 1725 cal (-346 red), 45 net carbs, 2 glass wine.
    Day 3: Thurs, 5/12: 216.4 No exercise. Played with my 4 month old granddaughter instead :) 1631 cal (-330 red), 107 net carbs, 2 glass wine. Lunch at Mexican restaurant with DIL where we split fajitas making salads and neither of us at the rice, beans or tortillas. But of course we ate chips! Happy that the scale did not blow up on that minor splurge.
    Day 4: Fri, 5/13: 218.4 Cancelled our trip. DH still has congestion and fatigue from his bout of COVID. My students from ESL class gave me a dozen beautiful roses :) No exercise. 1839 cal ( -507), 126 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Blew my focus on healthy eating … sabotaging myself with fried okra & cornbread for lunch and pizza at dinner! What am I thinking!
    Day 5: Sat, 5/14: 217.3 Walk 3.2 miles. Why can’t I get back into the groove. I know my knee hurts but that is not excuse for skipping my strength class! 1562 cal (-73 green), 93 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not bad given that DH & I picked up lunch and took it over to our daughter today to check on her … she had the pregnancy blues. Made up for it with salmon with spinach & white beans easy light dinner.

    1st Week Goal Weight: <215
    1st Week Actual Weight: 217.3
    1st Week Weight GAIN: .9
    Success this week is that I actually journaled every bite and started walking a little again.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 6: Sun, 5/15: 217.5 Walked 3.7 miles, trimmed bushes. 1624 cal (59 green), 91 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
    Day 7: Mon, 5/16: 217.2 No exercise. Did not even wear my Apple Watch so no credit for steps either. 2518 cal (-1218 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine, 2 bourbon & diet cokes, THREE cupcakes! Did okay until DH asked for me to cook a dessert and I made something I liked too. Sent home most of the cupcakes with my kids after dinner. Thought about not completing my journal but then I didn’t want to get into bad habits so reporting in the mess of a day!
    Day 8: Tues, 5/17: 219.2

    1st Week Weight GAIN: 1.1
    Success with picking back up on my Strong & Fit classes again but my walking is still a struggle in the heat. My knee feels a little better and I think the lunges and squats are helping. However, I blew off journaling every bite because I was eating everything. That has to stop! Starting to journal again this morning.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 13: Sun, 5/22: 218.4 Walked 2.6 to drop off library book instead of taking the car. 2041 cal (-397 red), 146 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Spent most of the day practicing both sketching and spanish.
    Day 14: Mon, 5/23: 219.5 Walk 1.25 miles. 1701 cal (-227 red), 132 net carbs, AF. Pancakes for breakfast and hamburger w/ tater tots for dinner blew up my carb count for the day.

    Day 16: Wed, 5/25: 218.3 Strength training class 1 hr, 2534 cal (-1010 red), 256 net carbs, 3 glasses of wine but the real indulgence was the 5 homemade pumpkin cookies!

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 with my sister cleaning out mom’s house since she has an offer … mom will move into my smaller house next door if the sell goes through. Tons of stuff there as she loved shopping garage sales and it was my grandfathers before. The house has been in the family since 1954 and it grew organically with many additions and remodels over the years.
    Managing my mother’s expectations and the entire situation has been really challenging and I’ve totally derailed on my weight loss journey losing all focus on myself.

    Planning to do some yard work this morning since the play is not until 2:30.

    Wonderful time last night at the brewery. It was great seeing my kids and all their cousins together (spouses and a new boyfriend too) (kids I'm talking age 28-38 ... the oldest age 42 that lives in town did not come). My son and his wife came in for their uncle's retirement party as well as my nephew and my husband's sister and BIL that live over in BR. So all of DH's siblings were there and he got to spend time with them which was nice ... we rarely see them.

    Day 26…..06/04…..204.4…..(Trend weight 203.8) No TMI x 2. Low calorie burn yesterday. Low step count. However, Plenty of sleep last night due to very little sleep the night before. Happy to see a nearly ½ pound drop on the scale. Probably because I hit just over 8 hours of sleep which is double my usual. Low level energy today and yesterday. A lot of fatigue. Probably my glucose levels causing it. It’s very unusual for me to feel this way.


    Day 27…..06/05…..204.6…..(Trend weight 203.6) Up a smidge. Likely due to inactivity. Up a lot this round from the start of the challenge. Got to start moving!

    @deepwoodslady

    I know that you will eventually bite the bullet and get back to tracking.
    That is what took you to 183, you started tracking.

    I totally get how busy you are.
    Did the new handyman interview go well?

    I am Dawn. 61yrs old, 5'2"
    Ideal body weight for my stats is 112. Many rounds away from that, and quite honestly I would be happy to get to 118 some day.
    I would really like to lose 7 pounds this round.

    I lost 1.8 pounds the last 100, which was a departure from gaining in the last 4 of them.


    1st Week Goal Weight: 135.0
    1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8
    Excess calories burned (in the green): Shorter week, 1874, which only averages to 372.8 per day, less than usual

    2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.0 - seems ambitious.
    2nd Week Actual Weight: No idea, wonky scale on holiday with me read 48 pounds
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 5167 - very happy with that.


    3rd Week Goal Weight: N/A
    3rd Week Actual Weight: 138.3 - had Ribs this week
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 3976. Even after having a RED from Ribs, I still averaged 568 per day overall.


    4th Week Goal Weight: 136.1
    4th Week Actual Weight: 138.5
    Excess calories burned (in the green): 3568 - Not as much as usual, and it is reflected in my weight.

    Day 27: Sun, 6/5: 139.9 - Went into the Red! Quite rare, but I missed all of my usual activities. Had a great day anyway.

    100 Days of Accountability 5/10-8/17
    I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

    Female, Age 61, 5’3”
    Challenge Starting Weight: 216.4 (5/9)
    Challenge Goal: <200
    History & Goals
    Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
    Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last
    2019 SW: 245 BMI 43.4 (1/2/2019) Lost 15 lbs in 2019 then regained 5
    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
    2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022)
    UGW: 165 BMI 29.2 Overweight NOT Obese
    🎯 Mini Goals & Weight:
    * Prior to Oct roadtrip damage: 205
    * Onederland: 199
    * Obese stage 1 BMI 34.9: 197
    * 50 lbs lost never to be found: 195


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    My goal for 2022 is to get into ONEderland and make it stick. Changing my life.
    Plans:
    🔹Find workout routine that works (walk, bike, planks, yoga, swim, strength training, take advantage of retirement to be more active); target walking 100 miles each month
    🔹Drink more water (target min 64-80 oz daily; start with 1 glass before coffee)
    🔹Journal Food Daily (tracking with MFP since 12/28/2018; basically skipped June-Dec 2019; recommit 1/1/2020; skipped out April-July 2020; recommit 8/6/2020)
    🔹Daily Vitamins (Dr’s orders; need to not ignore)
    🔹Drink less alcohol (3 AF days per week; ~12-16 AF days per month; limit 1-2 glasses per day)


    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

    Day 1: Tues, 5/10: 216.5 No exercise. 1532 cal (-180 red), 66 net carbs, 1.5 glass wine. DH & I tested positive on Tuesday 5/3 for COVID19. We quarantined per CDC for 5 days. I was asymptomatic except for a headache the first day and then tested negative for Covid on Monday 5/9 so I’ve been cleared. DH still has flu like symptoms and tested positive on Mon. We are using the CUE system which is a PCR like test that DH’s company provided employees.
    Day 2: Wed, 5/11: 216.4 Short walk .6 miles. 1725 cal (-346 red), 45 net carbs, 2 glass wine.
    Day 3: Thurs, 5/12: 216.4 No exercise. Played with my 4 month old granddaughter instead :) 1631 cal (-330 red), 107 net carbs, 2 glass wine. Lunch at Mexican restaurant with DIL where we split fajitas making salads and neither of us at the rice, beans or tortillas. But of course we ate chips! Happy that the scale did not blow up on that minor splurge.
    Day 4: Fri, 5/13: 218.4 Cancelled our trip. DH still has congestion and fatigue from his bout of COVID. My students from ESL class gave me a dozen beautiful roses :) No exercise. 1839 cal ( -507), 126 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Blew my focus on healthy eating … sabotaging myself with fried okra & cornbread for lunch and pizza at dinner! What am I thinking!
    Day 5: Sat, 5/14: 217.3 Walk 3.2 miles. Why can’t I get back into the groove. I know my knee hurts but that is not excuse for skipping my strength class! 1562 cal (-73 green), 93 net carbs, 2 glasses wine. Not bad given that DH & I picked up lunch and took it over to our daughter today to check on her … she had the pregnancy blues. Made up for it with salmon with spinach & white beans easy light dinner.

    1st Week Goal Weight: <215
    1st Week Actual Weight: 217.3
    1st Week Weight GAIN: .9
    Success this week is that I actually journaled every bite and started walking a little again.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 6: Sun, 5/15: 217.5 Walked 3.7 miles, trimmed bushes. 1624 cal (59 green), 91 net carbs, 2 glasses wine.
    Day 7: Mon, 5/16: 217.2 No exercise. Did not even wear my Apple Watch so no credit for steps either. 2518 cal (-1218 red), 164 net carbs, 2 glasses wine, 2 bourbon & diet cokes, THREE cupcakes! Did okay until DH asked for me to cook a dessert and I made something I liked too. Sent home most of the cupcakes with my kids after dinner. Thought about not completing my journal but then I didn’t want to get into bad habits so reporting in the mess of a day!
    Day 8: Tues, 5/17: 219.2
    Day 9: Wed, 5/18: 219.1 Strength Class 1 hr
    Day 10: Thurs, 5/19: 219.4 Walked 3.2 miles
    Day 11: Fri, 5/20: 219.2 Strength Class 1 hr
    Day 12: Sat, 5/21: 218.4 Walked .5 miles, Strength Class 1 hr

    2nd Week Goal Weight: <215
    2ndWeek Actual Weight: 218.4
    1st Week Weight GAIN: 1.1
    Success with picking back up on my Strong & Fit classes again but my walking is still a struggle in the heat. My knee feels a little better and I think the lunges and squats are helping. However, I blew off journaling every bite because I was eating everything. That has to stop! Starting to journal again this morning.

    Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
    Day 13: Sun, 5/22: 218.4 Walked 2.6 to drop off library book instead of taking the car. 2041 cal (-397 red), 146 net carbs, 3 glasses wine. Spent most of the day practicing both sketching and spanish.
    Day 14: Mon, 5/23: 219.5 Walk 1.25 miles. 1701 cal (-227 red), 132 net carbs, AF. Pancakes for breakfast and hamburger w/ tater tots for dinner blew up my carb count for the day.
    Day 15: Tues, 5/24: 218.1 Walked 2+1 miles, 1420 cal (-120 red), 42 net carbs, AF.
    Day 16: Wed, 5/25: 218.3 Strength training class 1 hr, 2534 cal (-1010 red), 256 net carbs, 3 glasses of wine but the real indulgence was the 5 homemade pumpkin cookies!
    Day 17: Thurs, 5/26: 219.0 Walked 3.2 + 1.3 miles, 1890 cal (-590 red), 188 net carbs, 1 rum & Diet Coke and 4 of those darn cookies. Skipped the steak and veggie dinner planned and we fired up a frozen pizza instead for dinner.
    Day 18: Fri, 5/27: Strength training class 1 hr, 2375 cal (-1075 red), 173 net carbs, 5 glasses wine.

    Day 20: Sun, 5/29: DNW @ fishing camp 🎣 with my sister cleaning out mom’s house since she has an offer … mom will move into my smaller house next door if the sell goes through. Tons of stuff there as she loved shopping garage sales and it was my grandfathers before. The house has been in the family since 1954 and it grew organically with many additions and remodels over the years.
    Managing my mother’s expectations and the entire situation has been really challenging and I’ve totally derailed on my weight loss journey losing all focus on myself.
