Hi, I am Steph and I am looking to change my habits and my life.
I am 34 years old and have never been this overweight, but I need to do something because it is only taking me down a path I don't want to go down.
I pledge to at least lose 15 lbs total for the next 100 days .

Good plan to weigh in the AM.
I think that will be more reliable since some days we drink more water than others etc.
Yes! My weight fluctuates 3-5 pounds throughout the day depending on what I eat and drink so the morning is the most accurate for me.

I’m adjusting my goal for just this week only since I weighed midday on the first day so it was probably elevated by a pound or two.
No weight change today but I’m fine with that. We had a delicious Brie en croute and crackers last night during movie night so there was no calorie deficit. I’m not going to let one day stop me though. Today is a new day with new opportunities!9 -

I’m Leah, 46, 5’5.5”. My goal this year is to work on me. Packed on a few after I quit smoking and had a few major surgeries over a 2 year span. Add Covid and a few more wrenches and you’ve got a fluffy version of Leah🤣 it’s ok, there’s just more to love. So here we are….

Going well: I got an aerobic workout in early yesterday, then in the evening watched a film while on the walking pad (slow pace). I'm also learning loads about Macros and I think I used to eat far more carbs than I realised. I'm trying to focus more on protein now.
I'm also really enjoying reading about everyone else's progress too! 😊

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.
Day 05-01/05-- 69.5 kg. Yay! Hit my 1st week goal already - just have to maintain for another two days rather than going off the rails and overcelebrating with treats to reward myself for losing the weight.....

Beth, 46 years old, 5’6”
Starting weight: 243.0
Challenge goal: -30 lbs = 213.0
Day 4: I need to straighten out my sleep schedule, be better about getting my water in every day, go grocery shopping and start food prepping (so I always have tasty, trackable things ready to eat in the fridge) if I want to see long-term success.

Hi I'm Jenny from the Bronx, NY - 59 years old, 5' 6", and have struggled my whole life with food. I was already at my top weight and then gained another 20 pounds during the pandemic that I am proud to say that I finally dropped during the last challenge! (Total weight loss 28.6 pounds!) My initial goal is 175 – a weight where I feel healthy and fit in my clothes again –but who knows, I may decide to go lower since this plan is working so well for me. I’ll see how I feel once I get there….WHICH I WILL!!! (It is so great after struggling for so many years to simply KNOW I WILL GET THERE!!)
For anyone interested, I’m doing Intermittent Fasting, with an eating window between 2pm and 9pm. I’ve been following the Fast800 plan with low-carb / Mediterranean-style diet, and have recently started loosening the reins on the weekends (what they’d call the 2:5 plan I think?) I also aim for moderate exercise and a yoga stretch 6 days a week- I do Burpee Girl Youtube workouts and yoga stretches using the Down Dog app.
Day 01-01/01: 183.4 - I missed weighing in during the last week of the last challenge because of holiday craziness, and given I gained during the holiday week I am posting my lowest weight here so that I’m accurately tracking my overall weight loss.
Day 02-01/02: skipped - first day back on track after a week of debauchery
Day 03-01/03: 188.8 – Burpee Girl cardio/weight workout & yoga stretch, and first day stepping on the scale…it could be worse! Onward & downward!
Day 04-01/04 – skipped – had a follow-up sonogram that turned out to be clear, so good news! Walked to and from the subway through the park for my exercise, and remembered there was a time in my life not so long ago I wasn’t able to do this because of my knee issues. Starting the year out with gratitude!
Day 05-01/05: 184.6 – Yay! A nice water whoosh! It’s thrilling to be almost back to my lowest weight so quickly. It’s always a struggle to “start” again but by Day 3 or 4 I feel so good!!! Did a longer BP workout alternating cardio & weights, those are my favorites – plus a nice stretch.

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
Day 05-01/05 - 145.8 - I thought that today was our end of week weigh in, kind of glad that it isn't. 2 jobs today, but only 1 job Saturday and Sunday, so hoping that I can bust through some stress, get some rest, and let my body get rid of some weight : - )

Day 07-01/07--
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.
Day 01 - Jan 01 – 7:13 of the 3 - Very sore shoulder from work, might skip Tuesday night, we'll see.

I’m Teri
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
