65 years old. 5; 8". Started back in March 2023 at 85.5 kg, down from my all time highest of 100 kg (220 lb) Since participating in the last two 100 Day Challenges I'm down to 70 kg (154 lb). My aim this time is to drop another 5 kg and reach my ultimate goal weight of 65 kg (143 lb) - and keep it off for the next two years at least - hopefully forever!
Day 01-01/01-- 70 kg. Waist 30.5 ". Hips 40 "
Day 02-01/02-- 70.2 kg. This is like investing for retirement in the stock market. The advisor told me 30 years ago "Think long term. Don't chase high returns for quick gains - aim for slow and steady returns. Don't worry about daily fluctuations - as long as you stick with it the overall trend will be upward." Happy now I took his advice.
Found a jar of Kalamata olives in the pantry. Delicious! but I'm trying to limit myself to 4 daily. And yes! - I already got rid of the cheese and crackers I'd normally have with them.
Day 03-01/03-- 69.9 kg.
Day 04-01/04-- 69.6 kg. who would've thunk there could be marshmallows in the pantry and I am only eating two per day?! Sloooowly breaking the impulse to Eat All The Goodies Quick while they're around because Lord knows when there'll be any more - food insecurity issues from childhood.

I'm Lynn; Looking fwd to my 3rd 100 Day challenge.
My personal goal for 2024 is to just lose 15, 20, 25 then ?30 pounds; I need this achievement
Have a couple of pretty athletic goals for 2024; 80km KVR bike ride, the Grouse Grind, then as a reward I'll paddle my kayak on the turquoise waters just east of Jasper, Alberta.

Frustrated with WW as they've changed their app so you can't do a "quick" entry of a food not in their database. Hopefully they'll 'fix' this. I've always believed in their approach but recent changes have left me feeling like the ship has sailed without me.

I was able to move about more as planned yesterday which was great, but ended up eating dinner much later than usual so I wasn't all that surprised at the scales this morning. Not going to fret about it though as I'm well used to these kinds of fluctuations! Eyes on the prize etc.

Week 1:
Day 01-01/01: 174.4 worked as server at a Seniors' Assisted Living facility. Small things make a difference. We're using "Christmas" plates which are larger and heavier to handle. Back is sore ++.
Day 02-01/02: 175 Worked. 1st job after breakfast was to exchange dishware; double the dishes to put thru the sanitizer but worth it! Back isn't as sore. But exhausted from stress.
Day 03-01/03: 175.6 Edited my wt loss goal for this week as aware that I won’t achieve it is causing internal stress. Walked an hour.

Age 60, 5’4”
Challenge Starting Weight: 144.3 lbs
Challenge Goal Weight: 138lbs
Mission for this challenge: Avoid refined sugar and keep meals low carb, IF 16:8, exercise at least 4 times per week, drink lots of water, get enough sleep, keep up with vitamin supplements. Simple right?
Day 01-01/01 - DNW
Day 02-01/02 - 145.3 All sugar & water retention in this gain as a result of a fabulous Holiday season with friends and family, but I’m not depressed about it. I know what I have to do. Now the work begins.
Day 03-01/03 - 144.7 Food intake wasn’t the best yesterday, but it was better than all of last week. My daughter returns to college today (sad), and so I’ll begin my exercise routine later today.
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [ ] enough water [ ] exercise
Day 04-01/04 - 144.4 Stayed away from the leftover Christmas goodies and though I did not go overboard on carbs, I could have done better. Today is the day I get on the exercise wagon. [I think I said that yesterday].

@dawnbgethealthy I am totally FREAKING OUT about what happened last night at your house! Thank goodness you are okay! I hope he realizes that he's barking up the wrong tree and he picked the WRONG SPOT to squat at! If he returns I would call the police for sure. I'm sure he doesn't want to deal with that and it will encourage him to move on.
Now, you have got me thinking.....I really need to get a camera system!
Thanks Donna : - )
I now have my 2 hockey sticks right inside of my front door and if happens again I will go out swinging lol.
I work 2 jobs to pay my mortgage. Somebody trying to set up camp on my lovely porch rent free is not going to fly with me.
There was a brand new high end luggage scale still in the package left behind, obviously he stole it from somewhere.
Yes, part of my yelling through the "microphone" on my camera app was "I'm calling the cops".
I am putting the backs of the chairs with the signs on them at the top of the stairs each night now. I don't even like that someone would be on my property in the middle of the night, much less climbing up to my porch to set up camp. Very unsettling.

Good plan to weigh in the AM.
I think that will be more reliable since some days we drink more water than others etc.4 -

Hi
I am Dawn
5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 63 years old
Brand new year! Of course going to try to take off some greasy pounds.
Day 01-01/01 - 145.6 - I had a drop from my end weight of the previous 100, perhaps just getting over the stress and pain from my most recent ankle injections? Who knows. I see people posting their start measurements, so I think that I should do that too at the bottom
Day 02-01/02 - 145.0 - I almost ate 2 dinners last night after working 2 jobs back to back and being so hungry. So glad that I didn't. My norm is to have 1/2 of a tuna sandwich in between the 2, and I was so late getting off of the one that I only managed 1/4 of the sandwich. I had prepped 3 dinners (really just took them out of the freezer, I did massive cooking and portioning back in November) for my days of 2 jobs each day so that they would be ready to pop into the microwave. I am on track to work 136 days straight with zero days off, so really need to make sure that my nutrition is on point. Working on swapping some shifts so that I can get a weekend off this month : - )
Day 03-01/03 - 144.4 - Had a horrendous night, somebody on my porch at 1am, luckily I have my phone plugged in next to my bed (alarm clock) so opened my camera app, turned on the microphone and yelled "get off of my porch" and the guy ran off. After a few minutes I went upstairs (I sleep in the basement basically underneath the porch) and there was some sort of comforter, 2 pairs of pants, a glove. I threw those off of there and hastily put up yet more signs like "you are on camera" and attached them to chairs that blocked entrance to the top of the stairs to the porch. Needless to say, I got very little sleep, I was so disturbed. That porch is my happy place. Luckily I have only one job today instead of 2! Going to be tired.
Day 04-01/04 -145.4 - Somehow gained a pound yesterday?! Ended up working the second job last night after all. I tried to refuse it, but they said that they really needed me and that it would be an overtime shift since at that job we are required to get 2 days off in a row, maybe a union thing. Still, I am working 7 days per week between the 2 jobs. I am resolute to not accept a shift at the second job for tonight, too tired. I have been swapping some shifts so am planning to take a weekend away 16 days from now. Bonspiel on the Lake/Snowflake festival in Invermere BC. I have booked a motel already

Week 1 Goal: 143.2 (beginning of last 100)
Week 1 actual weight:
Mini 21 day Challenge
Legs straight up (draining) with arm weights exercises, 4-6-ish minutes.
Round 1, June 25.23 start: 12.5" start, 11.75" end.
Round 2: 11.75" start, 11.5" Even though my weight is higher, my batwings are getting smaller?
I have a mole, so it is easy to measure in exactly the same place.
Round 3: 11.5" - Wow, a whole inch off of my upper arm since beginning this!!
Round 4: 11.0" start 11.5- So pleased!!
Round 5: September 18 - October 08. 11.25 started with 11.0 but completely okay with that, maybe building some muscle there.
Round 6: October 09 - 29 - 11.4 - A bit higher, but I truly feel like my arms are tightening up
Round 7: October 30 - Nov 19 - 11.25
Round 8: November 20 - Dec 10 - 11.25 - Glad to see this number even though I have gained quite a bit of weight recently.
Round 9: Dec 11 - Dec 31 - 11.0 - Happy to see this even after gaining weight in the last challenge. I do feel like my arms are firming up, and the leg draining feels so right.
Round 10: Jan 01-21
Going to keep this up. 4-5 minutes is easy to fit into a schedule. Positive new habit.

Thoughts:
While other challenges may show bigger losses (or gains), it really depends on what date you are looking at with me because I do go up & down quite a lot, especially with my frequent required day trips. However, from Jan 1st through Dec 31st, I lost 16.0 pounds in the full year of 2023. That is what I have lost and KEPT OFF. While I am very proud of that, I know that the road ahead is long and will be a difficult one since I still have so far to go and so many health related obstacles in my way. Each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I can make, no matter how big or small. I am also grateful for all the support from all of you that I get on a daily basis. Working on my health has become my #1 priority. My main goals are to maintain my remission by staying cancer free and to keep my diabetes in control. Losing weight is key to both goals.

Day 02-01/02-181.4-(Trend weight 180.4)
Day 03-01/03-181.4-(Trend weight 180.5) Carbs were a bit high yesterday but calories were in check. I made a large dinner, skipped the dinner roll but had a regular potato instead of sweet potato yesterday. I haven’t had a baked potato in a very long time. I was pretty good on exercise and tried a new walking video that was much faster and longer. I liked it but will have to hope my breathing can keep up. Not enough water or steps overall for the day so that is my goal for today, to improve these two areas. I’ll have to be patient with the scale but we all know that persistence pays off so the goal is to keep moving forward and wait for pay day!
Day 04-01/04-182.0-(Trend weight 180.7) My Christmas Dinner was on the 30th. I always suffer from intense cravings after people-gathering holidays. Last night I satisfied my craving for Pasta. I wish I would have stuck to the roast beef I had planned. I’ll have that tonight, it’s already in the crock pot. I need to be a good girl as the scale is getting out of hand. I’ve been working at taking down the Christmas decorations and all the Christmas trees (5 of them). I hope to finish up today. At least I’m getting lots of steps in and climbing lots of stairs!

Losing weight and getting fit certainly does take some time. Let's start getting ready for Summer!
9 -
Good morning!
I'm Jordan, 37yo cat mom. I have a primarily desk job. Located in Central VA.
I hope its not too late to join you guys. Today is my day one. I had a steroid epidural scheduled for January 2nd & yesterday was a lazy day after that. Of course I woke up today congested with what feels like the start of a sinus infection, but I'm not going to let that slow me down. I went grocery shopping & have a stocked freezer & fridge full of food.
I know a lot of what I'll be eating is convenience food, but whatever, it is what works for me right now. Once I start getting those healthy habits back I'll start getting back into the kitchen more. Until then, I'll take the quick & easy, heat & eat.
Overall I'd like to see a 5 pound loss in January, but I know that's asking a lot for 4 weeks, so we'll see what happens.
Jan 4: 308
On today's menu:
B - ham & cheese egg bites
S - grapes
L - chopped salad w/ chicken, apple, danimals yogurt cup
S - mini chocolate covered yogurt bar
D - fajitas
S - frozen fudge bar
1674 calories total
The majority of my food is from Sam's. The egg bites are AMAZING if you have a local Sam's club, I highly recommend them. The chopped salad & chicken are also both Sam's fresh foods and look really good.9 -
Congratulations to everyone who completed the previous challenge. I have not been able to continue posting daily so I admire your perseverance. Who can resist a round starting January 1st? Anyway, I want to lose as much as possible in this round.
About me: male, 59, chronic yo-yo dieter. 43 percent on the way to lose 32 kg.
I'm going with a starting weight of 81.5 kg which is what I weighed on December 31.
Day 01 83.1 kg I'm tracking my intake and going for an average of 6,000 kilojoules. I'll post how much over that in total I am. I had a morning 45 minute walk, and it was raining in the evening so no walk then. My food was 6249 kilojoules so I'm over by 249, I want to get rid of that in the next few days.
Day 02 82.7 kg, two 45 minute walks and intake is 5839 KJ food which means I have overeaten in total by 88 kilojoules.
Day 03 82.4 kg, two 45 minute walks, 20 minute shopping walk, I ate 6584 kilojoules so I'm over by 672.
Day 04 81.8 kg, two 45 minute walks, I ate 5306 kilojoules of food so I under ate in total by 22.
Day 05 81.9 kg

Day 01-01/01: Couldn't weigh as I was at my dad's house with no scale. I was about 200 before Christmas and I did noooot eat well.
Day 02-01/02: 207 - Yikes. But I do think a fair amount of this is water weight. Had leftover Chinese food yesterday, notoriously salty! My period is also 3 weeks late which means I'll have two periods in one soon, urgh. (And no, definitely not pregnant!)
Day 03-01/03: 206.4 - Not a bad start
