Hi all, happy new year! I’m 34 years old and 164 cm (5’4.5”). I’ve insulin resistance and PCOS. I’ve been gaining weight since I was 17, and I’ve gained 50 kg (110 lbs) through all years and couldn’t control it. Now I’m at my highest 105.4 kg (232 lbs). Hopefully it works this time! My goal for this challenge is losing 5-10 kg (11-22 lbs). My ultimate goal is losing 30 kg (66 lbs).

I'm putting more effort into the dog walks these days - we even upped it to a run this morning as it's so cold out! It was a short run as it's still pretty icy. I've started taking measurements too as I can see changes in my shape forming. 😊

Today I didn’t exercise since I worked at night and then was in meetings all day but I was able to stay within my calorie goals, so that’s good. A tiny jump up on the scale, but overall staying down. Tomorrow after I’m done with work conferences I’m going to try to drag my butt to the gym or in a walk.

More important than this week's "boost" to my motivation, I've been logging in, weighing myself daily and eating good food. Brushes with health issues that could easily become debilitating are what motivate me to do this now, and do it right. I'm not worried about the bikini next summer- no need to scare the grandchildren. But I am concerned about carrying boxes from the basement and groceries from the car.7 -
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

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! 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.
Day 06-01/06: skipped
Day 07-01/07: skipped
WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN 1.2 pound gain
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 1.2 pound gain
Day 08-01/08: 185.4 – Just did a BG 30 min tabata cardio / standing abs workout plus 20 min yoga stretch , and I’m definitely feeling the difference being able to go deeper into stretches as my belly slowly gets out of my way.
I did some yummy food prep yesterday – made rainbow salad for DH’s lunches, then a cauliflower rice / mushroom “risotto” with chopped broccoli for my dinners that is so delicious I’ve been making it the past 3 weeks, I am obsessed! And also made a version of turkey chili that is 90% veggies and is now going to go into my rotation for lunches, I was almost shocked it came out so well. Both are big hearty servings with just over 200 calories each…ready for the week!
Day 09-01/09: 183.4 – ok, back to pre-holiday weight. Time to break new ground! Did a BG 20 min strength workout and 10 min yoga stretch – enough to calm down the stress and anxiety I have over a situation with my daughter…so hard to figure out how to help adult children struggling with mental health issues, and then I’m stressed because I feel like I’m falling behind at work trying to help…think I have at least an initial solution though so time to get on with my day!6 -

@dawnbgethealthy Since you & I are the only ones who actually use the format, I will not be posting my strength training going forward. However, I will continue to do it along with whatever exercises I can fit in.
Yes, we started it to drain your legs back when.
I really liked the way that my arms firmed up and how I lost inches in those spots.2 -
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.
Week 1 Goal: 143.2 (beginning of last 100)
Week 1 actual weight: 145.6 - Start weight of the week 145.6
Day 08-01/08 - 145.8 - 1126 calories consumed yesterday, lots of activity including ice skating for 47 minutes. I will be doing that every Sunday, the only day when there is public skating at an arena. It was awesome, loved it so much. Of course dinner was late from working late. This is how it is going to be, can't change that or I would only have around 700 calories from the day. No time to eat at my night job, and most days I am running from one job to the next so only have the time to eat a tiny bit in between.
Day 09-01/09 - 146.0 - Kind of expected my weight to be a bit more this morning, I was in bed like 5-10 minutes after eating last night, not a good thing to do, and not a whole bunch of hours before my weigh-in. I need to get back to adding 1/2 to a cup of rice each day to sweep out my insides. 1280 calories yesterday, so got a bit more into me. Wednesday and Thursday are my 2 days when I only work one job, so I will be able to eat dinner much earlier. Hoping for a woosh : - )

@bteri107 I also watched "You are what you eat: the twin experiment" on Netflix. I was horrified on so many of the conditions on which we get our food (especially meat) sources!
same here ladies!! haven't finished the series yet, but WOW ... looking forward to learning new things I can implement on my own journey
@deepwoodslady Yes, the conditions are so inhumane. I also learned how much livestock contributes to global warming and how eating processed meats can increase your cancer risk. Just wow!
@reshii_devi This show definitely has me rethinking my eating choices and habits.7 -
Week one goal almost met. Close enough for me! Feel better that I have at least been more mindful this week and have weighed in pretty consistently.

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
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].
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [ ] exercise
Day 05-01/05 - 144.8 A little snacking last night but kept the 2 main meals low carb, so not sure
where this uptick is from. And it’s the weekend – yikes – I’ll try to keep the cocktails to a minimum.
Concert tomorrow night (Old Dominion).
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [√] exercise: 15 min core, 20 min upper body, 30 min cycling
Day 06-01/06 - 143.9 Enjoyed my pasta for sure.
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [√]
exercise: 10 min core, 20 min lower body, 20 min cycling
Day 07-01/07 – 143.5 Home is finally getting back to normal (decorations put away, cleaning out the fridge, etc) after the Holiday festivities which all happen at my house. Though I love all the gatherings – from Thanksgiving thru New Year’s – there’s a lot of time and effort that goes into it. So last night I treated myself to some cocktails and live music (Old Dominion concert). Great start to the New Year!
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [√] enough water [√]
exercise: 20 pilates, 30 min cycling
Week 1 Goal: 143.3
Week 1 actual weight: 143.5
WEEK 2
Day 08-01/08 – 144.1 Had a really good day yesterday as far as eating goes. Homemade vegetable soup and a nice salad for dinner. Also watched ‘You Are What You Eat’ on Netflix. Very eye-opening.
Yesterday: [√] IF 12-16:8 hours [√] vitamin supplements [√] 6-8 hours of sleep [ ] enough water [ ]

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.

Accumulated Loss or Gain: 0.8 lbs Lost
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 08-01/08-179.8-(Trend weight 181.2) I had quite the overnight whoosh. I shed a lot of water most of the day yesterday (for whatever unknown reason) and I finally had TMI (in the middle of the night) last night, all of which graced the scale this morning. It’s encouraging and just goes to show that we must be patient with our bodies and our results. If we keep up our good habits, it will show up on the scale and on the tape measure in due time.
Day 09-01/09-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) I woke up to a big disappointment. I got on my scales and they kept flipping from 174.8 to 175.4 which I know is impossible at this time. I haven’t even had TMI so they should be the same or even up slightly from yesterday’s weight. Also, it did not change over and show me the fat %, Water %, and all the other data it usually gives. It just went black after the weight every time I tried it. All the functions worked perfectly yesterday. I didn’t have another set of AAA batteries so I borrowed some from my TV remote and it still would not work properly. I’m afraid it’s time for a new scale. This one only lasted two years at most. Strange that it stays nicely lit but won’t perform. Anyway, I’ll be scouring Amazon for a new one today so I won’t be able to weigh until it comes in. I must stay diligent and not let my brain go into free-for-all mode just because I don’t have to weigh for a few days. Yes, I have common sense, but that could very easily happen anyway so I am going to pre-log all my food as soon as I am done posting on my challenges to help me stay in line. I will also force myself to exercise today as I could possibly get lax on that too, thinking I’m getting away with murder with no scale. It kind of feels like the teacher is absent today and I have a brand new very young substitute. As far as I think I have come in this weight loss journey, boy am I ever weak and boy oh boy, do I EVER have such a long way to go. Sometimes the physical part is easier than the mental part! Have a good day my friends. I am buckled down for our 6 – 10 inches expected snow storm. I went out yesterday for all the fresh stuff – eggs-bread-milk so my son & I are prepared.

Day 100-04/09…..(Final Weigh- In)-xxxxx-(trend weight xxxxx)5 -
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.....
Day 06-01/06-- 69.8 kg. I started knitting a lace scarf last month. It is very fine yarn on tiny needles, and I can only work on it in daylight. For the last 4 weeks I have been knitting 8 rows a day, and now my scarf is 22 inches long! I was feeling very proud of my progress and thinking it was a good lesson in perseverance with the weight loss plan as well. Well! so today I went to pick it up and somehow - pulled out the needle! Oh, ye knitters of the world, weep with me.....
Day 07-01/07-- 69 kg!!! Ummm.... this maybe TMI, but has anyone ever weighed themselves, then needed to go, then felt a strong desire to weigh themselves again - to see how much they dumped? ....not to boast - but, 0.5 kg? like, over a pound? Wow.
Week 1 Goal: 69.5 kg.
Week 1 actual weight: 69 kg.
Day 08-01/08--69.8 kg.... ???
Day 09-01/09-- 69.2 kg. Grandma used to say "What you gain on the swings you lose on the roundabouts." I'm guessing this was originally an allusion to the old style carnival where you paid to go on the rides, but maybe the barker was also running some kind of "chance to get your money back" gambling dodge as well? Anyway, it seems appropiate to eating for weight loss - cut out a slice of bread here and lose some, drink a can of soft drink "just this once" and gain it back.

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, two 45 minute walks and 40 minute shopping walk, I ate 6472 kilojoules so I'm overeating by 450 kilojoules
Day 06 81.4 kg New Low, lowest weight in 5 years 1 month, I delayed tracking my intake until late in the day, 7276 kilojoules eaten so I'm 1726 kilojoules over what I should be, that's going to take a long time to get back to zero, no biggie though, two 45 minute walks.
Day 07 81.5 kg, two 45 minute walks and 40 minute shopping walk, I ate 6148 kilojoules so I'm overeating by 1874 kilojoules
Day 08 81.2 kg New Low, I had a sugar fest to celebrate writing in my daily planner before midday 8 days in a row. 13,269 Kilojoules eaten which is huge and would typically take months to recover from however my girlfriend and I will soon be doing the diet prescribed in Effect of an Intermittent Calorie-restricted Diet on Type 2 Diabetes Remission: A Randomized Controlled Trial which will include a bit of under eating so I'm not bothered by that. Total overeating 9143 kilojoules which is equal to 260 grams of fat. I did a 45 minute walk and 40 minutes shopping walking.
Day 09 81.8 kg I did two 45 minute walks and a 20 minute shopping walk. I ate 8461 kilojoules which is high again. 11,604 kilojoules overeaten. Had a packet of salty food which will cause problems tomorrow. I've got 10 days to lose to a new low weight because I want another week added in my 'Lose weight every week challenge'. So it's time to eat less.
Day 10 82.2 kg

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 .

Hi all, happy new year! I’m 34 years old and 164 cm (5’4.5”). I’ve insulin resistance and PCOS. I’ve been gaining weight since I was 17, and I’ve gained 50 kg (110 lbs) through all years and couldn’t control it. Now I’m at my highest 105.4 kg (232 lbs). Hopefully it works this time! My goal for this challenge is losing 5-10 kg (11-22 lbs). My ultimate goal is losing 30 kg (66 lbs).

Last week I made 7000+ calorie deficit, exercised twice, increased protein intake and decreased carbs, I weighed most of the food I ate, drank only 1 pint of beer, fasted 16 hours everyday. Still I’m not sure it works. I’m the same as 5 days ago. I need to continue I know but it’s hard stay motivated.

More important than this week's "boost" to my motivation, I've been logging in, weighing myself daily and eating good food. Brushes with health issues that could easily become debilitating are what motivate me to do this now, and do it right. I'm not worried about the bikini next summer- no need to scare the grandchildren. But I am concerned about carrying boxes from the basement and groceries from the car.6 -

Week one goal almost met. Close enough for me! Feel better that I have at least been more mindful this week and have weighed in pretty consistently.

@lolakinks These are the times for sure I get less motivated. When I have times the scale just doesn't move I try to focus on how my clothes fit and measurements. Youare doing the right things!

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! 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.
Day 06-01/06: skipped
Day 07-01/07: skipped
WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN 1.2 pound gain
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 1.2 pound gain
Day 08-01/08: 185.4 – Just did a BG 30 min tabata cardio / standing abs workout plus 20 min yoga stretch , and I’m definitely feeling the difference being able to go deeper into stretches as my belly slowly gets out of my way. I did some yummy food prep yesterday – made rainbow salad for DH’s lunches, then a cauliflower rice / mushroom “risotto” with chopped broccoli for my dinners that is so delicious I’ve been making it the past 3 weeks, I am obsessed! And also made a version of turkey chili that is 90% veggies and is now going to go into my rotation for lunches, I was almost shocked it came out so well. Both are big hearty servings with just over 200 calories each…ready for the week!
Day 09-01/09: 183.4 – ok, back to pre-holiday weight. Time to break new ground! Did a BG 20 min strength workout and 10 min yoga stretch – enough to calm down the stress and anxiety I have over a situation with my daughter…so hard to figure out how to help adult children struggling with mental health issues, and then I’m stressed because I feel like I’m falling behind at work trying to help…think I have at least an initial solution though so time to get on with my day!
Day 10-01/10: 183.6 – Do you ever wake up and just “feel” skinnier? Like you can suck your stomach in and it makes a difference? Ha ha -that’s how I was feeling this morning, and did a slightly higher intensity 30 min BG kickboxing/standing abs workout and a 15 min yoga stretch. I swear the yoga app (Down Dog) seems to know what I need to stretch, as my thighs were a little sore from all the squats yesterday and today’s stretch really worked them out – while yesterday I needed more upper body and it was right on track again! Because I was feeling skinny I took my measurements today – it’s been a month since the last time, and once again I was measuring over and over bc I couldn’t believe I lost an inch and a half on my hips, and half inch from my waist!! These numbers are getting down to ones I haven’t seen in close to 5 years, it’s really exciting!! I have a journal I started last January with weights & measurements, so I’m just re-using those same calendars for my new entries…seeing the old numbers amid the new is a stark reminder to see how far I’ve come, and to never go back!!!6
