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.
Day 2: Fri, 8/19: 221.6 Walked 1 mile and swam a few laps.
Day 3: Sat, 8/20: 222.4 RAIN! No walk.

Day 23-09/09-197.8-(Trend weight 198.5) Weigh in is about 2.5 hours earlier than usual. Up a tad. Could be that but I did have an extra snack last night due to true hunger. I didn’t choose my daytime food very wisely even if it was within my calorie and carb limit. That snack put me over. I’m up early for travel today. May the beautiful Queen Rest in Peace. She will be missed.

Day 24-09/10-200.0-(Trend weight 198.6) Yikes, I guess it’s back to the drawing board! Hopefully all this travel and outside meals this week will AT LEAST keep up the metabolism! Today will be a very thoughtful and lean day! Doctor report from surgeon was very good. I still can’t breathe but they are banking on it being a lung issue, not the stent. The lung testing is in October. However, they did schedule another EKG to check blood flow for Sept 21st when I’m getting dopplers on legs. That should confirm that the stent is not struggling.

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

3rd Week Goal Weight: 137 until I hit it
3rd Week Actual Weight: 140.1
Excess calories burned (in the green): 4741, average of 677.28 over 7 days

Day 18 - 09/04 - 140.9 - Well that is not good!
Day 19 - 09/05 - 141.8 - Not quite believing that, I guess that I don't want to believe it. Sticking with it.
Day 20 - 09/06 - 139.9 - Anything under 140 is good at this point, although I really wanted to be closer to 135 for my trip. I will be taking my scale with me to weigh on my birthday. Last year on September 20th (my 61st birthday) I was 131.1
Day 21 - 09/07 - 138.6 - Last full week before travel. Glad to see a drop.
Day 22 - 09/08 - 138.1 - Short term goal is to get back to my start weight for the month. Sooo pleased to see an unexpected drop on the scale!
Day 23 - 09/09 - 138.5 - Back on the roller coaster : - ) I have 4 days left at home (today I won't be home much because of work) so I am not going to grocery shop. These long work days (my last until October) have me eating dinner so very late. Also Friday has been my day to eat kind of off of plan partially because I get home so late and partially because I just want to have a few wings or whatever after being "good" all week. The zigzag is never good for me on the scale.
Day 24 - 09/10 - 139.5 - Planning a bit of an indulgent Saturday, I will take the consequences. Beginning to do laundry and pack, lots to do in the yard, a small bottle of prosecco chilling in the fridge and a champagne glass in the freezer, brie cheese and Wasa etc. Finished my last shift before vacation last night and was home pretty late. Just trying to settle into realizing that I am on vacation now. So much to do before I go to the airport at 4am on Tuesday.

4th Week Goal Weight: 136
4th Week Actual Weight: 139.5, started the week at 140.9
Excess calories burned (in the green): I will fill this in after today's numbers




Start weight this 100: 137.7 (136.0 start weight the previous 100)
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.

Hi all. I am no longer in weight loss mode so my plan for the 100 days is to stick in my maintenance range of 160-165. I will be using this color coding legend:

Glucose running so high today that I called the doctor. I’m waiting for a call back. Pasta, of course, is a no-no for me. I’ve got to stop throwing all caution to the wind and then expecting doctors and nurses to fix it for me. No sleep last night (3 hours). I’m just so glad there was not a gain. Thank you Sweet Jesus!

I have been actively trying to get healthier and lose weight seriously since May of this year.
SW: 325.2 in May
I've been in a group with friends on WhatsApps since that time, but the momentum has died down and I've been struggling and in my head since July. I have lost and gained the same 3 pounds since then. I am looking to be more accountable and get my head back in the game.

Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 200.4
Goal This Round: 185.4 (15 pound loss)
Ending Weight this round:

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

Day 22-09/08-197.6-(Trend weight 198.6)

Day 23-09/09-197.8-(Trend weight 198.5)

Day 24-09/10-200.0-(Trend weight 198.6)

Day 25-09/11-200.4-(Trend weight 198.7)

Day 26-09/12-200.4-(Trend weight 199.2)

Day 27-09/13-195.8-(Trend weight 198.8) A day off of travel allowed me to take the water pill. Wow! What a drop! I was also extremely careful with my diet. A stellar day! Nice way to end a challenge but it will be even more challenging starting next round with this number and still make progress. We all know the food holidays are on the horizon. I’ve got to keep diligent in order to venture into those ahead of the game. This was a great round for so many. Thank you all for sharing your journey, your ideas and your progress with me.

Day 28-09/14-199.8-(Trend weight 198.9) Obviously no water pill yesterday. Hard to gauge progress like this. My weight yesterday would have had me at a loss for the week. Water-logged today does not. Makes me want to throw in the towel because how much information am I really getting anyway? What am I truly tracking anyway? Ugh! Travel today for dental cleanings for son & I so no waterpill today either. I’ll be like a squishy water balloon by tomorrow’s weigh-in.
