    Hi Folks! My name's Darin, and I'm an almost-45 year old woman from Holly Springs, North Carolina, USA. I've done a past 100 days challenge before and did really well with it (then regained the weight) so wanted to rejoin and try again.

    Starting weight: 176.7
    Week 1 Goal: 174.7
    Week 1 actual weight:174.2

    Day 08-04/17—175.2 another partial day at work today due to migraine, and I’m retaining water. Blergh. Between the two not feeling great. At least got out and walked, and I meditated today. That’s something.

    My goal is to be proud of my weight loss.

    Day 01 80.1 kg, I did my planned exercise but I overate a little bit (I'm tracking my intake), since I started tracking I've eaten out 4 times and I need to compensate for those times. I read "most people who lose weight will regain it within 5 years", I checked my old numbers and I'm 3.5 kg under what I weighed 5 years ago. I guess I'm in that category. I talked to my partner about my weight loss (something I'm trying to do less often).
    Day 02 80.0 kg, I ate below my ideal which should help me recover from previous overeating. I did my exercise sessions.
    Day 03 80.1 kg my eating is on track for the last 3 days but I need to recover from the previous 9 which averaged too high. I exercised and that's on track too. Disappointed that the scale is headed in the wrong direction but...
    Day 04 79.4 kg a big loss today. I did a lot of walking, I had sugary food for the first time in 8 days. I overate. Recently there have been 6 days when I overate a lot, I had sugary food 5 times. Coincidence?
    Day 05 79.8 kg just a normal day where I am good, no overeating and exercising is as required
    Day 06 80.4 kg I started two personal challenges, I had some sugary food because I won't be having sugary food for a while, so on Tuesday I gained...
    Day 07 80.6 kg my eating and exercise went well, still need to recover from the overeating episodes, maybe in 2-3 days that will happen
    Day 08 80.4 kg I had some treats and food I don't usually have, that's a negative, on the plus side I'm still exercising as I intended
    Day 09 80.3 kg

    Thoughts:

    Last round I had my normal goal of a 12 pound loss which is approximately 4 lbs per month. That comes to about 90 days leaving the other 10 open for special holidays and social occasions. In theory, it’s a good plan. In practice it is a Mountain to Crawl up. However, 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.


    PREVIOUS WEEKS THIS CHALLENGE:
    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 01-04/10-181.6-(Trend weight 181.7)

    Day 02-04/11-179.6-(Trend weight 181.5)

    Day 03-04/12-180.4-(Trend weight 181.4)

    Day 04-04/13-181.2-(Trend weight 181.4)

    Day 05-04/14-181.0-(Trend weight 181.4)

    Day 06-04/15-DNW-(Trend weight DNW)



    Day 07-04/16-182.4-(Trend weight 181.8) This month is horrid. It is FILLED with travel which really hurts my bottom line for all the normal reasons (restaurant foods and sitting, sitting, sitting). Last week’s travel killed my progress and sent me spiraling backward and this upcoming week’s travel is even further, longer and worse. Let’s just hope I get a good report from the Cancer Center at the University Hospital as something suspicious is being reinvestigated later this week. It’s been a long 6 months waiting for them to re-test and compare. As many of you know, I am already a cancer patient in remission. I appreciate all the prayers.


    WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN: 0.2 Gained
    Week 1 Ending Weight: 182.4
    Accumulated Loss or Gain: 0.2 lb Gain



    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 08-04/17-182.8-(Trend weight 182.0) I am still creeping up. Could it be stress? It just feels like sheer unadulterated and constant hunger. I am choosing the same meals I always do but they no longer satisfy. I’m lost. Foot is a little better but swells back up easily with the least amount of overdoing it. Today I travel to the new eye doctor. Diabetic testing and new glasses. It will be nice to be able to see again. It took me a minute to find a doctor who takes my vision insurance. Of course there is no eye doctor in our little rural town. Dinner and shopping afterward. The scale will not be my friend this week. I just have to try not to tick it off too very much.

    @jennysweet58 I had to look up "calorie cycling". Interesting concept, tho for the moment I'm trying to implement one change at a time. Trying IF first to see how it works best for me - my routine is a bit chop and change atm, so may need to figure out my own variant. Then once that habit is established, I will try introducing something new.

    @deepwoodslady: I feel your pain and frustration- and this foot swelling has made it even worse, and must be very scary for you. But you've had amazing success and taken enormous (and inspiring) strides to better health, and you keep working at it. I admire your perseverance!
    I would never presume to tell you what diet is correct for you, and what works for you may also change as you move along. It's easy to suggest that you not get discouraged, but for sure that doesn't help.

    It is true that most Drs are not versed in nutrition; I don't know if you have access to a licensed nutritionist who can cut through a lot of the fads and gimmicks. I've worked with one for the last 6 months after years of struggling with symptoms and it's worked miracles for me; I have both HBP and diverticulitis and after working with her I'm learning to manage both with the appropriate diet.

    Perhaps there's a nutrition and wellness site or center that you can access remotely for some good advice? Also, some PCPs now have access to or information about nutritionists. Not sure this is relevant, but for diabetes and renal conditions a nutritionist is usually covered by insurance.

    I hope you feel better and hope you can find answers soon!! I love reading your posts, you always inspire me!

    Back for Round 3 for me! Hi, I’m Jenny – 59 years old, 5’6”, and reached my goal of 175 pounds during the last challenge. I’d like to give myself a little buffer so that even if I have a little gain on vacation I won’t go above 175 ever again! So am looking to whittle down another 5-8 pounds.
    ENDING WEIGHT FROM LAST CHALLENGE: 173.2
    Day 01-04/10: 172.6 - Nice to see a drop already! I’ve been feeling a little hungrier than usual the past couple of days so I feel like my body is trying to nudge me back up. I ain’t goin’, so give it up bod! I am in charge!! Have been diligent with workouts the past few days too, so feeling good all-around!

    Day 02-04/11: DNW – super stressful day at work, started at 5am and never stopped…no workout 

    Day 03-04/12: 171.0 – Ok I have a feeling there will be a correction next week, but I’ll take it!! It’s just so exciting to see numbers on the scale I haven’t seen in literally a decade! There’s a wedding we’re going to in August where the bride has requested everyone wear “sea glass colors” so I’ve been on the hunt for a dress and shoes – and I’m just so busy I usually try to order a few things online from a store I can return them to near me (so I’m not stuck with return shipping charges) , and the same with shoes…I can’t tell you how exciting it is to have dresses show up, try them on and they not only fit well but look fantastic !! Or if they don’t, it’s just because the style or color doesn’t suit me, not because I can’t zip the damn thing up. I used to call it feeling “struttable”, a made-up word I haven’t used in a VERY long time – but a pair of shoes showed up yesterday and I was strutting around feeling pretty hot for an old broad!! I hope nobody minds but I end my weigh-in weeks on Fridays, so will adjust my weekly dates. I’m just so damn happy and proud of myself!

    WEEK 1 LOSS OR GAIN: 2.2 pounds lost
    Accumulated loss or gain: 2.2 pounds lost

    Day 04-04/13--DNW
    Day 05-04/14--DNW
    Day 06-04/15--DNW
    Day 07-04/16--DNW
    Day 08-04/17: 171.2 – Started a new job on Monday so have been a little stressed, but I’m feeling more settled now so was able to do a longer workout & stretch today which felt AMAZING. I love the alternating cardio/strength workouts, they are my absolute favorite! I have settled on a pair of shoes for the wedding we’re going to in August, and am kind of psyched because it’s a much higher heel than I normally wear but it’s the Naturalizer brand – so it’s stealthily comfortable! The arch support hits me just right which is imperative for my plantar fasciitis. My husband will be less thrilled because I’ll be taller than him, but that’s the price he pays for being with a hottie, ha ha!

    Day 09-04/18: 171.2- It’s so rare for me to weigh exactly the same two days in a row – but it’s all good. Got up extra early to get a jump on work stuff, but just did a quick 20 min BG tabata cardio & 15 min yoga stretch.

    Hi, I’m Elise. I’m 62 and 5’5” . I live in Southeast Michigan.
    This week we celebrated my husband’s birthday and I made him a most delicious carrot cake that I had too much of. We’ve also ate out quite a bit. I’m restarting again today and trying to be honest with myself. I lose weight when I exercise and eat right. I gain weight when I don’t. I’m going to bust out my Skinnytaste cookbooks, and walk with my grandkids today at Greenfield Village.

    @deepwoodslady - I am so sorry for what you're going through. I had a lumpectomy 10 years ago and still live in fear with every mammogram, so I can imagine how stressful this must be for you. Take care of your mental health and your stress as best you can, that's the most important thing right now. Sending {{{HUGS}}}} and hoping all turns out ok. <3

    Hi!
    I am Dawn. 63, 5'2"
    I have been at this tracking for quite awhile, on this particular thread for 15 out of the 19 iterations of it.
    I lost quite a bit (got to 130), but have been slowly gaining weight over the past 2 years despite my efforts.
    Highest weight was 207. Began on this thread at 198 pounds


    Week 1 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it.
    Week 1 actual weight: 147.2 - started the week at 146.8

    Day 08-Wednesday 04/17 - 148.0 - Still nothing on the new job, swung by there after 2nd job of the day, but it is not open yet so they didn't start without me. If I don't get that job I will start looking around for something when I get back from Cancun in June.

    Day 09-04/18 - 148.4 - Champagne and Camembert. Uptick, but kind of worth it. Only one job, so got out for a really nice walk despite my very sore knee. X-rays showed arthritis in it. Looking at exercises to strengthen the muscles around it. Having said that, a couple of days of only one job per day usually relieves it. Ice packs do wonders in the evening. Even though the weather has turned cold, I got 7 rows of peas in after my walk. A friend helped me turn it all over and remove the weeds last week to make it ready for planting. It is around 25 feet long. Just one job today, so I expect to get a few more seeds in.

    Day 10-04/19 -

    Day 11-04/20 -

    Day 12-04/21 -

    Day 13-04/22 -

    Day 14-Tuesday 04/23 -

    Week 2 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
    Week 2 actual weight:

    started the 100 at 146.8
