Day 12-08/29-196.6-(Trend weight 199.8) Wow, what an overnight drop! Water pill yesterday has relieved my ankles. TMI today finally. Very very scary low blood pressures again last night which lead me to pushing water very late in case it was dehydration after the pill. Hardly any sleep, up all night with #1. So I wonder how accurate this weight is due to dehydration. Today is my doctor appoint with family doctor for after- surgery follow-up and glucose A1C check. Son’s appointment also. Appt is local but we may travel afterward, not sure yet. If so, I will definitely try to hang on to as much of this loss as possible.

Day 13-08/30-200.6-(Trend weight 199.8) No water pill yesterday, bloating today and BAM!!! There goes the scale! Clearly it is going to be hard to judge any progress with this every other day pill, but I’ve just got to trust the trend weight and hope the numbers gradually drop, even if they fluctuate from day-to-day. Finally some good health news, my A1C which stood at over 12, then over 11 is now down to 9.7. I know I have a long way to go to get in the 5’s, or even in the 6’s as a Type 2, but that is a major improvement. I was 7 pounds down from my May visit. She was happy to see that but wants more, more, more and so do I.

I'm intentionally losing weight slowly, it's going to be about 2 years to get to goal weight (64 kg). Weight is in kilograms, did I eat sugary food, followed by how much I've overeaten above 6,000KJ per day since 1st August 2022, followed by my exercise on the treadmill (speed km/hr x minutes). Tracking intake and exercise will stop mid October 2022.
Day 01 18-Aug 88.4, sugar, 11,500 excess food, treadmill 5.2x12, 4.0x33
Day 02 19-Aug 88.1 new low, sugar, 10,500 excess food, treadmill 5.2x13, 4.0x32
Day 03 20-Aug 87.6 new low, sugar, 9,500 excess food, treadmill 5.2x14, 4.0x31

Day 06 23-Aug 89.3, sugar, 13,500 excess food, treadmill 5.2x10, 4.0x5, 5.2x5, 4.0x24, 5.3x2
Day 07 24-Aug 88.6, sugar, 16,500 excess food, treadmill 5.2x5, 4.0x5, 5.2x5, 4.0x5, 5.2x5, 4.0x23, 5.3x3 I've been eating too much for various reasons, basically "sympathy meals", which really shouldn't be happening multiple times a week. I'm allowed to have "celebration meals" but again too often isn't useful. I've decided to stop running and I'll use the elliptical for a while, I'm getting quite tired and I can mentally switch off on the elliptical but I can't do that on the treadmill.
Day 08 25-Aug 88.2, sugar, 15,500 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 10, 9, 8 settings, I don't trust the energy values on machines so I'll give this session 100 units
Day 08 26-Aug 88.3, sugar, 14,500 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 10, 9, 8 settings 102 units burned
Day 09 27-Aug 87.7, sugar, 14,000 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 10, 9, 8, 7 settings 115 units burned
Day 10 28-Aug 88.1, sugar, 16,500 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 11, 10, 9, 8 settings 125 units burned
Day 11 29-Aug 87.9, 15,500 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 12, 11 settings 73 units burned
Day 12 30-Aug DNW, 14,500 excess food, no exercise but lots of walking
Day 13 31-Aug 87.7, sugar, 15,000 excess food, elliptical 10 min each at 12, 11, 10, 9 settings 130 units burned

@dawnbgethealthy - Beautiful voluntary sunflower! Thanks for the links to the health show.
I'm usually not hungry in the morning but that is one of DH's favorite meals so we normally have bacon & eggs, fruit and he has an English muffin. I eat half of what he eats but still find it a lot. It is changed up off and on ... I like avocado toast It holds me over till around 1pm. I would love to make lunch or a late midday meal my largest and cut back on dinner. We'll see what I can change up.

@Lilylady3k

Nice weight drop.
I'm sure that we all want avocado toast now : - )

Day 14-08/31-200.0-(Trend weight 199.9) How flirty that teasing old scale was today in regards to that illusive Onederland! Diet was so-so yesterday so I attribute the loss to mainly my water pill. Not fair though, up 4 pounds without it, down 0.6 with it. I know weight can take a few days to present itself, but I’ve been doing pretty good except for the lack of exercise. I did try to walk my cul-de-sac the other day. It is just one house away to the end (although the houses generously spaced apart) then back around. But it is on a steady incline to start with a downslide back, then up another incline to get up my longish driveway. It’s something I did a LOT last summer. Boy, was it scary. I almost couldn’t get back home. The breathing is WAY WORSE since the surgery. I don’t know what they did in there but it’s horrid. I did tell my personal cardiologist this when I saw her this month. I also told my family doctor, thus the scheduled pulmonary test in Oct. Maybe they should have stented the other two arteries also (that was the original plan). I miss walking but after trying it, I understand why they said “no” until I get cardiac rehab.

Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment

Day 1: Thurs, 8/18: 222.7 Walk 1.5 miles with granddaughter in stroller. DIL & I took turns swimming laps at the pool while the other played with my 7 month old granddaughter who loves the water. Down a little from the highs of our last round. Success especially after book club at a Mexican restaurant last night. The chips & salsa filled me up before the chicken verde enchiladas arrived. The win is that I didn't order any margaritas or wine AND I replaced the rice & beans with a side salad. Another choice I made is when ordering fast food for lunch is I got the grilled chicken sandwich without the bun ... still had the fries which I shared with the baby & dogs and brought out the watermelon from the fridge to round out the meal.

Easy come easy go ...

@deepwoodslady

I wonder what the 12 weeks of cardio rehab is going to be like for you.
So much is going virtual these days in terms of health care and one on one treatment, but I imagine that you will have to get hooked up to stuff.

I am Dawn.
61 and 11/12ths
5'2"
I live in SE BC Canada

This will be my 11th round on this forum out of 13 of them.
I have gained weight in 4 out of the last 5 100s
I enjoy being on this journey with y'all. Weight loss requires a lot of work! We are worth it though.
I aim to have an average of 500 calories in the Green each day, so I track my excess. I get in a good deal of activity and dance workouts. Like, if you had to pick a body type that you wanted to have, you do that sort of activity I think. Dance for me unlocks my creaky joints, lifts my spirits, stretches me out, works all of the muscles and is super fun. I do the 3-4 minute song variety, it keeps me up with what the "kids" are listening to : - )

1st Week Goal Weight: 137.5
1st Week Actual Weight: 138.8 Started at 137.7,
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2548, /4 = 637 average

2nd Week Goal Weight: 135.9 (ambitious I know, but my trip will be coming up)
2ndWeek Actual Weight: 139.6
Excess calories burned (in the green): 2342, burned lots, but ate more. Missed my 500, average = 334.5

Day 11: Sun, 8/28: 140.6 - oop
Day 12: Mon, 8/29: 141.0 - I believe that this is due to weighing at 5am instead of 7am. Tomorrow's weight will be better
Day 13: Tues, 8/30: 139.7 - I did try to eat breakfast in the last several days instead of my usual buffet of fruits on the staff table at work all day. Breakfast made me very hungry the rest of the day until bedtime, nothing would fill me and I felt tired. Back to my berries throughout the day, I truly feel that this works better for my personal body, energy, and digestion.
Day 14: Wed, 8/31: 138.2 - Always very happy to see such a drop. It helps to keep me motivated to carry on with this weight loss journey.
Day 15: Thurs, 9/1: 138.4 - I think that I will forego my Friday night "cheat" meal this week.
Day 16: Fri, 9/2:
Day 17: Sat, 9/3:

3rd Week Goal Weight: 135 137 until I hit it
3rd Week Actual Weight: N/A
Excess calories burned (in the green):

Start weight this 100: 137.7
Goal weight this 100: 127.7 - Very unrealistic, especially since I will be in Mexico for a good chunk of September and I am going to eat all of the yummy foods and drink a few Margaritas/Cervezas for sure. The most that I have ever lost in the 100 day challenge was 7 pounds once. In the 7 100s in which I actually lost weight it was more like 2-3 pounds loss over 100 days.
