    @Shannonsto may I ask did you recently come off the steroids? Is that the sudden loss do you think? I'm hoping within a few months I'll be on something else or nothing at all! Definitely retainylots of fluid here!

    I have been starting to wonder about the same thing. I started getting injections in December of 2022, and am up at least 10 pounds since then.

    “We will encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” ~Maya Angelou

    My Name is Donna, Age 63. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 183.8
    Goal This Round: 171.8
    Challenge Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Round #16---188.0
    Round #17---183.8


    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 43-02/12-179.6-(Trend weight 181.4)

    Day 44-02/13-182.0-(Trend weight 181.5) Big jump on the scale after travel. Hopefully much of this is water weight. Great news at the endocrinologists office! My A1C diabetic testing showed such an improvement that he is releasing my diabetes care back to my family doctor! He says his job is to fix things and then send me back so that is what he is doing. So I feel so “fixed”!!!! All the changes are really making a difference. Getting some of the pounds off has really contributed too. I plan on keeping my diabetes at the forefront of my journey! He was extremely happy with my cholesterol (medication must be working) and he was not at all concerned with my kidney function that I was so worried about (the eGFR test) because my urine protein test looks very good. I am so relieved. I know I have a lot of health issues (so many more than what I’ve just mentioned) but it is such a relief to hear that I’m on the right track with changes I’ve been making in my lifestyle.

    Day 45-02/14-179.6-(Trend weight 181.3) I chose one of my ultra low calorie days yesterday on the zig-zag diet in order to offset that travel weight and it payed off on the scale (so far). It's nice to finally be able to type my weight in pink. Today I will have moderate calories and carbs and I will try to fit in the exercise bike which I managed to fit in the back part of my livingroom. A miracle! Behind my bed are layers of boxes and totes packed. I managed to fit the bike by blocking the front door with it and making it difficult to get to the staircase that leads to upstairs. As you can see in the pic, the pathway through my livingroom is very narrow. All open spaces are now filled with more boxes and totes. Pray I don't have a fire in the next couple of months!

    Start 83kg
    Challenge sw 82kg
    Week 1 80.8kg
    Week 2 80.3kg
    Week 3 79.4kg
    Week 4 78.9kg
    Week 5 78.1kg
    Week 6 78.0kg

    Day 43-02/12--78.8kg Away for a few days by the sea. I've relaxed a little, food wise, but my walking has upped from my normal off work days. I won't be weighing in until Friday, it's shrive Tuesday here tomorrow and I may partake in a couple of light ones for brunch. 7/30 . Jumping jacks are not getting easier but I've upped the resistance bands to 15kg.

    Day 44-02/13--8/30 stayed with the higher resistance band. Bought myself a Christmas goal dress it's supposed to be my size but it's actually smaller by maybe 1-2 dress sizes, it's stunning though and wasn't expensive as I bought it Preloved. Met step count but did eat chocolate and crisps. Also had pancakes but I'm. Not eating any "junk" at Kent, I shall miss my cuppuchino. Just plain old fashioned instant coffee.

    Day 45-02/14-- well, no eating junk didn't work, I forgot..oops! However almost 15k steps, I treated myself to some new workout things, socks, skipping rope and a yoga top. Son has been showing me "Russian twists" to help with my abs without having to do sit ups which hurt my neck and spine. (Growths causing inflammation) 9/30 excercise challenge, I really hate Star jumps!

    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 over celebrating 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 25-01/25-- 68 kg.

    Day 26-01/26-- 67.9 kg.

    Day 27-01/27-- DNW

    Day 28-01/28-- 68 kg. Made it!

    Week 4 Goal: 68.5 kg.
    Week 4 actual weight: 68 kg. 4 weeks, 2 kg down.

    Day 29-01/29-- 69 kg. Note to self - do not celebrate weight loss with toasted cheese.

    Day 30-01/30-- 70 kg. Another note to self - just because fruit mince tarts are reduced price after Christmas, doesn't mean there are less calories. You're not "saving" money, either - you're spending it!

    Day 31-01/31-- 69.8 kg.

    Day 32-02/01-- 69 kg. Easy come, easy go.

    Day 33-02/02-- 68.8 kg.

    Day 34-02/03-- 69.8 kg. What witchcraft hath possessed my scale? Oh right - I'm the one polishing off the goodies before Lent.

    Day 35-02/04-- 69 kg.

    Week 5 Goal: 68 kg.
    Week 5 actual weight: 69 kg. Only 1 kg lost in 5 weeks? Need to keep my eye on the ball.


    Day 36-02/05-- 68.8 kg. 64 days to lose 3.8 kg - around 60 grams per day.

    Day 37-02/06-- 68.5 kg. I am the only person who controls what goes into my mouth.

    Day 38-02/07-- 68.1 kg. Stay focused. Stay strong.

    Day 39-02/08-- 68.7 kg. I luuurve avocadoes and they are said to be very good for you, but oh my Lord, the calories!

    Day 40-02/09-- 70 kg. Yikes!

    Day 41-02/10-- 69 kg.

    Day 42-02/11-- 70 kg. Even footling around with cheat meals. Lent starts on Wed, and I am absolutely resolute on giving up sugar. (Yes, I know the primary aim is not to lose weight, but the self discipline will hopefully have a positive side effect.)

    Week 6 Goal: 68 kg.
    Week 6 actual weight: 70 kg. Epic fail. 6 weeks gone - and I'm back to starting weight.


    Day 43-02/12-- 69 kg.

    Day 44-02/13-- DNW. Pancakes galore! With bananas and chocolate sauce! Will repent tomorrow.

    Day 45-02/14-- 69 kg. Today is both Ash Wednesday and St Valentine's Day.
    Roses are red, violets are blue:
    Lent is beginning - no chocolate for you.

    Day 46-02/15-- 68 kg

    Lily, Age 63, 5’3”
    Challenge Starting Weight: 230.3 (2/1/2024)
    Challenge Goal: <220

    Tracking: PT knee exercises, W=walk miles, SF=strong & fit strength class 1 hr, B=bike minutes, S=swim laps, A=water/agua ounces, J=tracked/journaled all my food cal/net carbs, V=vitamin, AF=alcohol Free

    Totally skipped the first 31 days!!
    Day 32: 02/01 - 230.3 - First things first. Need to get back under 230! J, A 80, V, B 15. Under 200 carbs but definitely not meeting my goal of under 100! Took my measurements!!!
    Day 33: 02/02 - 230.0 - J, A 32, V, B 20, PT. Decided to gradually up my time on the bike. When starting PT in Nov they only let me do 10 min for the 6 weeks. I started 15 min in Jan. Today 20. Hoping to get back up to 45 before the trip if my knee continues to improve. Though it was really swollen after today’s PT at home. I need to pick up my anti inflammatory pills at the pharmacy which I’ve not taken this past week.
    Day 34: 02/03 - DNW - Bike 20 that is about it!
    Day 35: 02/04 - 231.5 - Lots of King cake this weekend.

    Week 5 Goal: < 230
    Week 5 actual weight: 231.5

    Day 36: 02/05 - 230.7 - Started my strong & fit class again but limiting activities during the 1hr session so that I’m not damaging my knees. Focusing on arms, shoulders, and core. Bike 20 min.
    Day 37: 02/06 - 232.5 - Eating 3 slices of pizza was stupid. There I said it! No exercise but plenty of water and only snacks I let myself have were protein … slice of deli meat twice. But there was a snickers at a cash register that jumped out and bit me. I had my sketching class which started up for the year!!! YEAH And teaching adult ESL as well as errands out of the house. Being sick for a week it felt good to leave the house!
    Day 38: 02/07 - 231.6 - Today’s focus is exercise and portion control. Bike 20 min! Snacked once on a handful of peanuts only.
    Day 39: 02/08 - 231.9 - Up and down all night UGH! My other leg is killing me :(
    Day 40: 02/09 - 232.1 - Today’s focus is exercise and portion control and reducing my snack intake. Strong & fit class + 20 min on bike.
    Day 41: 02/10 - 231.6 - Watched DH run in a 5K this morning with my best friend while her husband and I were on the side lines. I wish I was back into running/walking shape but right now I’m just hanging on with a thread.
    Day 42: 02/11 - 231.4 - Planning to exercise and not snack. Less of a challenge this year than usual since I have no o Super Bowl Party to attend and I’m not hosting either! Biked 20 min.

    Week 6 Goal: < 230 Until I hit it!
    Week 6 actual weight:231.4

    Day 43: 02/12 - 232.6 - Yesterday DH made a huge breakfast yesterday, then we had a big lunch and went to my sister’s for a big dinner … plus I snacked and had too much wine. Results were predictable on today’s scale. Today yard work and exercise … and again remind myself no snacks!
    Day 44: 02/13 - 232.0 - Sketching class was fun!

    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

    Week 3 Goal: 143.4
    Week 3 actual weight: 144.8

    Week 4 Goal: 143.8

    Week 5 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
    Week 5 actual weight: 144.8 - started the week at 145.6

    Week 6 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
    Week 6 actual weight: 144.4 - Started the week at 144.0

    Day 43-02/12 - 144.4 - I made sure that the Superbowl was on in both of my pods at my second job yesterday (LTC). What a game! I was finished my shift, but KC tied it up so I stayed until OT and then whipped home to watch that. Starting the week at a higher weight than what I started last week, but still hopeful and trying. Long way to go yet to get back to my 2022 weight.

    Day 44-02/13 - 144.2

    Day 45-02/14 - 144.6 - Up from yesterday, but weighed earlier than usual. Everything was on point.

    Day 46-02/15 - 144.6 - Really fun night working at the restaurant on a split shift. I skated during my afternoon break for a bit. I honestly do not have a sweet tooth, but ate many Valentine's chocolates that we were giving out. I am off at 2pm today, and my plan is to go x-country skiing for a bit with a young guy from Nigeria who wants to try it. New friend that I work with at my second job. He and his wife have a very cute 2 year old that I have met. He wants to embrace what we do for activities here in Canada.

    Week 7 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
    Week 7 actual weight:

    My ticker is based on my start of this 100, not on my total weight loss to date.
    I realize that until I lose a few pounds the ticker is having the beginning numbers overlap lol
    Still trying to make it bigger. Copied it to a Word document to try to stretch it out from there.
