@jennysweet58 and @dawnbgethealthy thank you very much for your support, advises, and good wishes! When I am stressed I eat high calorie foods. I can’t really relax while eating healthy, and I have been used to eat to comfort myself. And these days I really feel like I’m hungry all the time.
I have days like that too, where nothing I eat seems to "fill" me.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 2 Goal: Didn't put one this week
Week 2 actual weight: 145.0 - started the week at 145.8
Day 15-01/15 - 145.4 - Rushing this morning. 2 jobs today and tomorrow
Week 3 Goal: 143.4
Week 3 actual weight: 144.8
Day 22-01/22 - 146.4 - What? Argh. Going to try not to get upset about it. Everything was on track yesterday.
Day 23-01/23 - 145.8 - 1137 calories in, big calorie burns, so hoping/expecting a woosh. But maybe not, I have only one job today and tomorrow so might get a bit indulgent. Ridiculous weather, everything is melting now and freezing overnight. Above freezing all day. I find this hard on the joints and the body. Cancun in late May, keeping that in my mind : - )

There was a free S'mores station, and fire pits all over the place
My friend really wanted her photo taken on the throne made out of ice : - )
Indoor (arena) skating competition
And a very fun curling costume

100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ January 1st thru April 9th, 2024
“We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou

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 22-01/22-184.2-(Trend weight 182.7) Frantically turning this ship around. It’s a big boat so I’ve got to be patient but it’s beginning to turn.
Day 23-01/23-185.2-(Trend weight 183.0) I went out to dinner with my son yesterday locally as we ran all our errands to prepare for the coming snow today. I really watched my quantities and came in at 1172 calories and 102 carbs for the day which I thought would be just fine. However, my logging shows it was very high in sodium. Another one pound gain is making me really go over my logged food of late. It’s not just how much we eat, it really is the quality of the food too and how it affects our bodies. Today I will try to move more and choose more healthful and helpful foods as I await the snow storm expected to hit again today. I cancelled my out-of-town dental cleaning due to the expected weather so I am hunkered down and have no excuses for not getting some fitness in today too. But first I am going to go bury my head under a pillow and cry, kick and scream – just for a moment. It’s a way better plan than eating my emotions, right?

Week 4:
Day 22-01/22: 176.4 Last week I stopped using Spenda in my coffee etc and survived!
I'm not putting down wt loss goals because I've stuck in a perpetual cycle of "failing" since last summer. It's a mental struggle that I can't let get my down. But realistically if all I want to do is lose weight, guessing I could let go of unattainable goals and just put down ... lose 1 or 2 pounds this week. At one a week by mid June I could have 20 off.
Day 23-01/23: 175.4 Finally a “smooth” day. Work was good and now that I have some distance between Splenda and Me, I’m not cruising the kitchen from the moment I get home until I finally fall asleep. At this moment I’m not craving anything which is just the most magical feeling
No exercises other than work b/c between the weights and shoving snow around I’m feeling stress in my left shoulder. Hope to get out for a walk tomorrow.

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.
Day 10-01/10-- DNW
Day 11-01/11-- 68.9 kg. I'm always hearing "eat protein for breakfast" and "breakfast like a king", but I just can't do that. A big plate of bacon and eggs always leaves me feeling uncomfortably full, weighed down and heavy. I just don't want to go for my usual morning walk, whereas a bowl of oatmeal, or a couple slices of wholewheat toast, with a piece of fruit, fills me until lunchtime, while still feeling light and active. I'm thinking there are many cultures where no, or just a light breakfast is the norm - it's really only the last 200 years in the Western world that 3 meals a day has become the norm. Even in the 60s, when I was a kid, snacking was not the usual thing - there weren't all the granola bars and cheesy chippy things we have today. I'm wondering how much of being told what we "should" eat, is actually real science based, and how much is funded by food manufacturers who want us to buy their products - how many orders for pizza delivery have been placed after seeing an ad? and deciding then "I'm too tired to cook".
Day 12-01/12-- 68.8 kg.
Day 13-01/13-- 69.2 kg. We are having a heat wave and it's exhausting to walk outside. Also I'm on medication which makes my skin more photo sensitive, so no to being lots in the sun. Fortunately, my appetite has decreased with the heat and I don't feel like cooking, so lots of raw fruit and veggies are on the menu.
Day 14-01/14-- 69 kg. Some cookies and chips came ..... into my possession. "Them that asks no question, isn't told a lie. Watch the wall, my darling, while the chocolate cake goes by." So I just ate the treats (about 800 calories) and nothing else.
Week 2 Goal: 69 kg.
Week 2 actual weight: 69 kg. So no net loss or gain this week, but still on target.
Day 15-01/15-- 68.8 kg. I want to knit a sweater for myself and I'm in a dither over what size to make. I know I'm 2 dress sizes smaller than I was, but I need my actual measurements. And then I need to work out how big the completed sweater will be and how much ease I want - I don't want "sweater girl" negative ease, but I don't want baggy oversize either, since I still have a little more weight to lose.
Day 16-01/16 69.8 kg. I found a big jar of mayo at the back of the fridge......I would have taken it to the food pantry, but it was already open....spent the evening gorging on mayo and cucumber sandwiches. No, I regret nothing.--
Day 17-01/17-- 70 kg .....Well, the rest of the mayo is gone - I hate to waste food, but, yes, it went down the sink - and the fiber in all the wholewheat bread has worked, so here's to a drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 18-01/18-- 69 kg. Hopefully back on track.
Day 19-01/19-- 70 kg. Is it the scale or is it me not being super careful over tracking? I am perflummoxedcombobulated! Maybe my body is telling me it's happy at current weight and doesn't want to go lower?
Day 20-01/20-- 70 kg.
Day 21-01/21-- 69 kg. Weather has been super hot and I think I may have eaten something that's gone a bit off - been feeling unwell for the last 24 hours.
Week 3 Goal: 68.5 kg.
Week 3 actual weight: 69 kg. As Scarlett O'Hara said, "Tomorrow is another day."
Day 22-01/22-- 68.5 kg.
Day 23-01/23-- 68.7 kg.
Day 24-01/24-- 68.4 kg. I was given a fruit cake today - a whole 500 grams (over a pound). I try very hard not to buy sweets and baked goods or keep them in the house, but free food is fair game..... I ate it all in 2 hours ..... I'm thinking with Lent approaching I need to give it up completely - at least for long enough for my taste to change.

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.

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].

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!

I have been avoiding the break room at my hospital because the staff always brings in such delicious (but not super healthy) food. Yesterday I decided to eat in there just to see how I could handle being surrounded by delicious greasy carbs for an hour. Someone brought a giant container of delicious looking bacon and garlic noodles and the bacon stared at me for my entire lunch break 😂 Normally, I let myself have small amounts of treat foods like that, but last night I could just tell that if I let myself have some, I would not be stopping at one. I’ve done so well so far and I didn’t want a plate of deliciously salty bacon to throw me off my game, so I ate my salad and my chicken and I left. I have very little resolve when it comes to bacon, so that was a win for me. 🥳
In order to make it easier on myself, today I went to Costco and picked up a bunch of fruit, veggies, and snacks I can use to make my own healthy “snack packs” to bring to work. When I got home, I cleaned out my fridge and my cabinet and prepped a bunch of items I can just grab on the run when I want a snack.

WEEK 3 LOSS OR GAIN : 0.8 gainjennysweet58 wrote: »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! 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
Day 07-01/07--
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!!!
Day 11-01/11: 182.0 – Hurray! Finally into new territory after the holidays – this also is officially 45 pounds down for me! Five more pounds till my first goal (that I’ve had for at least 5 years and never made .) Did a nice 25 min BG tabata workout and 15 min stretch.
Day 12-01/12: 182.0 – this will be my final weight of the week, since I don’t weigh on weekends. Happy with this result!
Day 13-01/13: skipped – today will do a pool workout with the hubby, food shopping and food prep. I am going to do the exact same food prep as last week because it was delicious!! Also I tend to go in phases, eating one meal for a long while and then transitioning to something else…for now I am loving my (mostly veggie) turkey chili, and my “faux” mushroom risotto with cauliflower rice. My freezer is still stocked with Eggroll in a Bowl and turkey zucchini noodle soup so I am in good shape!!
Day 14-01/14: skipped
WEEK 2 LOSS OR GAIN - 2.6 pound loss
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 1.4 pound loss
Day 15-01/15: skipped, went out to a local brewery with the husband, drank wine, ate fried food and got into a big fight…such a bummer! And the fight continued through the rest of the day…
Day 16-01/16: skipped – and then even after we sort of made up in the morning I continued the pity party the whole next day, deciding that bingeing was the perfect partner to wallowing in sadness and depression…
Day 17-01/17: skipped – and then woke up this morning determined not to let all my hard work slip away. I did a great workout/stretch and got back on track…man oh man, that binge monster is always lurking, ready to pounce! But I know as long as I don’t let it turn into weeks I can right the ship fairly quickly. We’ll see if it results in a gain for the week…work has been a little nuts so my routine is all screwed up!
Day 18-01/18: 184.2 - to be expected. Hopefully will get a dip down tomorrow so I don't have to end the week with an accumulated gain, fingers crossed I at least hit my original start weight...I really need to buckle down. I've made great progress and I have to be really careful not to allow myself to begin unraveling it!
Day 19-01/19: 182.8 – ok, I’ll take it! A gain for the week but at least still an accumulated loss. I tried a new workout this morning – getfitwithrick on youtube – there was a 30 minute body combat one that caught my eye, I used to LOVE body combat I find it so motivating! But it did solidify that I prefer workouts without commentary (like my usual burpeegirl on youtube) –he has some no commentary music-only ones that maybe I’ll give a try when I feel the need to mix things up. I find I am so curmudgeonly in my old age and hate the constant chatter and laughing at their own jokes that most videos have! Bah humbug! Ha ha

Day 22-01/22: 183.4 – a smaller than expected bump up from the weekend, and I have that “skinny & fit” feeling this morning, so I have a good feeling about getting a good loss this week and finally getting past that holiday hump! Did a 30 min BG kickboxing/abs workout and a great yoga stretch. I tried on a dress I bought during a trip to New Orleans in February 2020, right before the world stopped – it was a little small for me then but I was “sure” I’d lose weight and would be able to wear it that summer…well, we all know the end to that story don’t we? The tags are still on that dress, and something made me try it on this morning – and it fit! It’s a wrap dress so will look better if I’m a little smaller but I could wear that damn thing tomorrow if I wanted to! (But I won’t because it’s very low cut and summery, ha ha) I made a couple of new soups this weekend for lunches – a spicy cabbage & turkey sausage and an Italian wedding soup using 99% FF ground turkey for the meatballs. The 99% FF works well for the ‘faux’ turkey sausage in the first one but not so great in meatballs, they need more fat – but till ok. It’s fun to try new recipes but both of these I had to doctor up a lot because they needed much more spices than the recipe called for…so I feel kind of “meh” about them both but it’s good to switch up my lunches in any case! I have an Asian Mushroom soup I want to make too (this one I know I like) but I have to make room in my freezer, I got a little too ambitious with all my food prep this weekend!
Day 23-01/23: 182.6 – That’s right scale, keep it moving…let’s get rid of this weekend water weight and see where we are tomorrow! I was feeling energized this morning and did a longer than usual BG metabolic cardio/weights workout, though was careful to modify when needed. I love these kind of workouts with the lighter weights and compound moves, they remind me of the old-school “Firm” videos I used to love. I’m so conscious these days of feeling fit, strong and flexible (I mean in comparison to where I was a year ago- not that I’m ripped or anything ha ha). It’s kind of freeing as I get older to simply focus on health and function (my bikini days are long gone ) and after spending the past few years hobbled by multiple injuries (made worse by my own unhealthy eating and lack of exercise) it feels so amazing to be able to MOVE.
Day 24-01/24: 181.0 – Ok well that was lower than expected, if that holds till the end of the week I’ll be thrilled! I have a birthday next weekend and if I could celebrate it in a new decade I would feel so accomplished...did a BG cardio/body weight toning tabata workout & yoga stretch, and ready to make today a good one!

First 100 day challenge: 1/1/24
Start weight: 248
Goal: -15lb
Week 3 was rough! I am preparing for an upcoming vacation so my work schedule was crazy. Worked a ton of hours since I will be gone for a week at the end of this month. I tried to weigh everyday but my posting just didn’t happen. I keep a log of my weigh in on my phone though to try and keep me accountable. Weight fluctuated up and down all week, but at least I ended on an even keel from last week. Hopefully I can make a little more progress before vacation starts at the end of this week. There is no way I won’t add a pound or two while I am gone (just keeping it real!) so at this point I am hoping to minimize the damage!Day 01-01/01—248Week 1 Goal: 246

She is a new friend actually, and it was quite the opposite, I would slow her down. I encouraged her to keep going without me. I did what I could, I definitely skated on the Whiteway, but of course I have issues in my ankle and knees. I went over to the arena to see some of the figure skating, while she did another 10km loop on the lake : - )
Cancun is indeed with a very very old friend. He is turning 60 in late May. He lives in Victoria BC. He will golf every day and I plan to lounge around the pool reading books : - ) It is all inclusive, so there will be lots of activity, entertainment, restaurants etc. We won't have to worry about anything.
This is what is going to get me through my grueling 7 days per week for the next 105 days.
Both of our flights have layovers in Calgary Alberta, then we will be on the same plane from there to Cancun, so we will arrive together and can split a taxi or whatever to get to the resort.
I am going to drop my "line" at my second job at the beginning of May so that I can get all of my garden planted before departing at 5am on May 22nd.
I am going to stay "casual" at that job until November when I might take another line.
I am dog tired, but doing this will pay for my trip, my heating bills, property taxes, house insurance etc. A means to an end.
I plan to enjoy my garden and my summer this year without working myself to death : - )4 -
@pammyNNP
Yes, please post photos!
I think that I will try to get over to see Cozumel while I am in Cancun.2 -
@Lynn__W
Oh yes, the shovelling.
We are at +3 during the day and -5 overnight, so I moved some slush yesterday after work and have only one job today too, so will try to move some more because it just turns into glare ice overnight. Very bumpy if not shoveled.
Trying to get a few inches off while I can before there is no more daily melting. Plus when I have my second job I am not home until 9pm and it is already frozen.

So happy that you have your lovely fireplace for your impending snowstorm. Sounds so cozy and wonderful to be snowed in with a fire in the hearth : - )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
Week 2 Goal: Didn't put one this week
Week 2 actual weight: 145.0 - started the week at 145.8
Day 15-01/15 - 145.4 - Rushing this morning. 2 jobs today and tomorrow
Week 3 Goal: 143.4
Week 3 actual weight: 144.8
Day 22-01/22 - 146.4 - What? Argh. Going to try not to get upset about it. Everything was on track yesterday.
Day 23-01/23 - 145.8 - 1137 calories in, big calorie burns, so hoping/expecting a woosh. But maybe not, I have only one job today and tomorrow so might get a bit indulgent. Ridiculous weather, everything is melting now and freezing overnight. Above freezing all day. I find this hard on the joints and the body. Cancun in late May, keeping that in my mind : - )
Day 24-01/24 - 145.4 - I plan to have rice tonight. I know (for me) that I should have it every day to "sweep" out my intestines. When I get away from that I gain weight. Tonnes of calorie burn yesterday, I feel like today will be too since I am working only one job today and plan to chip away and shovel ice and slush from my parking spot on the street. It looks like it will be warm during the day for another week until another deep freeze.

Is getting brighter here in the mornings which is making it much easier to get up, get out of bed, and put on some kind of aerobics workout most mornings. I find it easier to get it out of the way first thing, else I'll find some reason not to do it later on.

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 22-01/22-184.2-(Trend weight 182.7)
Day 23-01/23-185.2-(Trend weight 183.0) I went out to dinner with my son yesterday locally as we ran all our errands to prepare for the coming snow today. I really watched my quantities and came in at 1172 calories and 102 carbs for the day which I thought would be just fine. However, my logging shows it was very high in sodium. Another one pound gain is making me really go over my logged food of late. It’s not just how much we eat, it really is the quality of the food too and how it affects our bodies. Today I will try to move more and choose more healthful and helpful foods as I await the snow storm expected to hit again today. I cancelled my out-of-town dental cleaning due to the expected weather so I am hunkered down and have no excuses for not getting some fitness in today too. But first I am going to go bury my head under a pillow and cry, kick and scream – just for a moment. It’s a way better plan than eating my emotions, right?
Day 24-01/24-184.6-(Trend weight 183.3) It’s nice to see a drop this morning. I went over my food logs carefully last night. I have been over in sodium pretty consistently. That is a no-no for my heart condition. I also have slacked a little bit on the exercise on many days. I am trying to tweak what TIMES I eat which is pretty confusing to me. I think I am also eating too much bread. Just because it is low calorie and low carb bread doesn’t mean it can be a free-for-all. I have found that I’ve gotten pretty lazy about cooking these past couple of months. I am trying to rely more on sandwiches or frozen meals that contain other starches and preservatives I don’t need. I’ve got to get my inner Julia going and start using up the ungodly amount of food I have in my freezers and pantries. Yes, both those words are plural! Not much time left in the month. I want to make the most of a long month like January since February gives us less time, even with it being a leap year.

I did not feel well today. 😔 I think I’m dehydrated because I’ve been feeling queasy and not wanting to eat or drink. I’m hoping I’m not getting sick 😷. Luckily I don’t have to work today so I can just sip on some soup and water and sleep. Hoping it’s just something I ate and not the flu 🤞🏻
