    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

    Day 47-02/16-- 67.9 kg. Per MFP this day deficit, I will weigh 65.4 in 5 weeks. Hope and pray!

    Day 48-02/17-- 68.1 kg. So close!

    Day 49-02/18-- 67.9 kg. Darn chocolate buttons,

    Week 7 Goal: 68 kg.
    Week 7 actual weight: 67.9. Try to find myself some non-food reward for coming in under goal.

    Day 50-02/19-- 67.5 kg. Halfway thru the Challenge and Halfway to Goal!

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) or 50 grams per day.

    Day 51-02/20-- 68.1 kg.

    Day 52-02/21-- 67.9 kg.

    Day 53-02/22-- 67.8 kg.

    Day 54-02/23-- 68 kg.

    Day 55-02/24-- 69 kg. Back on a bread binge.

    Day 56-02/25-- 68 kg. Le sigh.

    Week 8 Goal: 67 kg.
    Week 8 actual weight: 68 kg. Well, at least it's not more than I weighed 7 days ago.


    Day 57-02/26-- 67.5 kg. Have lost 18 (39.6 lb) kg in just over 10 months. Also down 32.5 kg (71.5 lb) since my highest weight - just after first lockdown, so nearly 4 years ago.

    Day 58-02/27-- 67.6 kg.

    Day 59-02/28-- DNW

    Day 60-02/29-- 67.3 kg. ......Ithinkicanithinkicanithinkican.....

    Day 60-02/29--77.6kg. Had some awful allegations levelled at me in work last week. Big meeting, I could either take one for the team or take the whole lot down with me. I did the forner. It's like a grieving process, I'm currently angry, which I find helpful and makes me more determined "Well stuff you, I'm going to succeed anyway regardless". I'm currently covering a lot of peoples upset and eventually everything will come out, but not from me, I have too much integrity to throw people under the bus to cover my own butt. Onwards and upwards! I will succeed!

    “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!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s

    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 59-02/28-176.6-(Trend weight 179.8) Woo Hoo! My lowest weight since the 2020 Pandemic started! Even with no TMI x 2! I must say though that I am very likely a bit dehydrated as my water intake has been horrible for the past 3 or 4 days. Today is a busy day including taking my DGS for a haircut before the upcoming school concert. I will take him to dinner after but I usually pass on ordering anything so we shall see how that works out today. I will push water as often as I can which may increase the scale tomorrow but I know how important water intake is to good health. I would love to finish February strong and let those numbers challenge me in March.

    Day 60-02/29-177.0-(Trend weight 179.5) A blip up on the scale but a blip down on the trend weight as my body readjusts to that big whoosh yesterday. I didn’t get in too much movement due to so much shopping online for building supplies for the reno. Then I visited my friend with cancer in the evening until about 9:30 pm. Today will be more time on the computer but I meet the school bus at 3:30 and my kindergarten grandson will keep me on my toes until Friday night! My heart flutters every week when I get to spend this time with him. I am happy to be showing a 4.6 lb loss for February. I am feeling so grateful.

    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

    Day 47-02/16-- 67.9 kg. Per MFP this day deficit, I will weigh 65.4 in 5 weeks. Hope and pray!

    Day 48-02/17-- 68.1 kg. So close!

    Day 49-02/18-- 67.9 kg. Darn chocolate buttons,

    Week 7 Goal: 68 kg.
    Week 7 actual weight: 67.9. Try to find myself some non-food reward for coming in under goal.

    Day 50-02/19-- 67.5 kg. Halfway thru the Challenge and Halfway to Goal!

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) or 50 grams per day.

    Day 51-02/20-- 68.1 kg.

    Day 52-02/21-- 67.9 kg.

    Day 53-02/22-- 67.8 kg.

    Day 54-02/23-- 68 kg.

    Day 55-02/24-- 69 kg. Back on a bread binge.

    Day 56-02/25-- 68 kg. Le sigh.

    Week 8 Goal: 67 kg.
    Week 8 actual weight: 68 kg. Well, at least it's not more than I weighed 7 days ago.


    Day 57-02/26-- 67.5 kg. Have lost 18 (39.6 lb) kg in just over 10 months. Also down 32.5 kg (71.5 lb) since my highest weight - just after first lockdown, so nearly 4 years ago.

    Day 58-02/27-- 67.6 kg.

    Day 59-02/28-- DNW

    Day 60-02/29-- 67.3 kg. ......Ithinkicanithinkicanithinkican.....

    Day 61-03/01-- 67.2 kg. Last time I weighed this much/little was well over 20 years ago. Think I was living in another city in 2001? 2002? I was still doing karate then. Maybe I should look into Aikido, which is a softer martial art, or Tai Chi? I know one of the nearby church halls has a falls prevention exercise program for seniors which includes some Tai Chi.

    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 61-03/01-- 67.2 kg. Last time I weighed this much/little was well over 20 years ago. Think I was living in another city in 2001? 2002? I was still doing karate then. Maybe I should look into Aikido, which is a softer martial art, or Tai Chi? I know one of the nearby church halls has a falls prevention exercise program for seniors which includes some Tai Chi.


    @tinathescreamer Congratulations for reaching your lowest weight in over 20 years!!!! Over two DECADES!!! I know the hard work you must have put in since your highest weight of 100 kg (220 pounds). You are truly inspiring!

    100 Days of Weighing In ^^^^^ January 1st thru April 9th, 2024


    weight.png

    “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!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s

    Previous Rounds Tally & Thoughts:
    This shows the ending weights of each round:
    Round #1 --- 199,8
    Round #2 --- 186.8
    Round #3 --- 195.6
    Round #4 --- 211.0
    Round #5 --- 211.3
    Round #6 --- 205.4
    Round #7 --- 207.6

    Round #14---191.2
    Round #15---194.0
    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 60-02/29-177.0-(Trend weight 179.5) A blip up on the scale but a blip down on the trend weight as my body readjusts to that big whoosh yesterday. I didn’t get in too much movement due to so much shopping online for building supplies for the reno. Then I visited my friend with cancer in the evening until about 9:30 pm. Today will be more time on the computer but I meet the school bus at 3:30 and my kindergarten grandson will keep me on my toes until Friday night! My heart flutters every week when I get to spend this time with him. I am happy to be showing a 4.6 lb loss for February. I am feeling so grateful.

    Day 61-03/01-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) No weigh Friday as I get up extra early to get grandson ready for the bus. I only weigh later if I lay back down but today I can’t. Also I take my once-per-week Fosamax on this day with 8 oz of water upon waking. Yesterday was a good clean eating day but hardly any movement or exercise so my calorie burn overall was very low. Today will probably not allow me much better. One of the new windows was put in yesterday in the bedroom and floor in bath was prepped for new sub=flooring. A flurry of activity here. Well, my friends, Its a new month. Time to “March” into better health and a more optimal weight (for most of us). Let’s go!

    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 4 actual weight: 144.6 - Used Saturday's weight

    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 50-02/19 - 143.4 - Wow, somehow dropped a pound!! That has made my day! I have been working at this for so many years, and have almost felt like giving up because it seems like I just don't lose any weight no matter how "good" I am. This loss will motivate me to keep on keeping on : - )

    Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.2


    Week 8 Goal: 141.8 - Putting this number in until I hit it
    Week 8 actual weight: 145.8 - started the week at 143.0

    Day 57-02/26 - Computer needed to restart and I had to get ready for work so didn't post

    Day 58-02/27 - 145.6 - Right back to my start weight for the 100, sigh.

    Day 59-02/28 - 146.2 - Really really going in the wrong direction : - (

    Day 60-02/29 - 146.2

    Day 61-03/01 - 145.8 - I have been trying to sleep a little later in the mornings, on day 2 of 5 of 2 jobs each day. Loved having my 2 days with only one job, was able to go skating with a new friend. She is originally from Newfoundland and was very excited about my getting to meet Alan Doyle from Great Big Sea

    Week 9 Goal: 141.8 - Putting this number in until I hit it. Seems a bit unrealistic at this point
    Week 9 actual weight:


    My ticker is based on my start of this 100, not on my total weight loss to date.
