100 day Challenge April 10 – July 17.24

I’m 5’1”, and have traveled around the sun 77 times. I’m fortunate in that I can continue with my latest job which is serving at an Assisted Living facility. I’ve been struggling with a slow backslide. April 1st saw 177.2 ☹ Goal for this Round is to get below 165.

Week 4:

#25 – May the 4th be with you 😊 174.8

#26 – Sun 5th:

#27 – Mon 6th:

#28 – Tues 7th:

#29 – Wed 8th:

#30 – Thurs 9th:

#31 – Fri 10th:

Week 4 Goal: 170.?? Would be happy with 172 again.
Week 4 actual weight:

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 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
Day 18 80.4 kg whoa how did that happen? Maybe eating too much?
Day 19 79.7 kg ate too much, exercise average is okay
Day 20 79.9 kg
Day 21 80.0 kg I'm now starting the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 22 80.6 kg moderate gain but I'm not too concerned. 10.6 kg in 99 days? Probably.
Day 23 80.4 kg, things are looking good in terms of eating. 10.4 kg in 98 days? Probably.
Day 24 80.0 kg, I'm eating too much, 0.1 kg lost in 23 days. Anyway, 10.0 kg in 97 days? Probably.
Day 25 80.1 kg, eating seems to be under control right now, 30 day weight average has dropped for 3 days in a row (personal best 118 days), 10.1 kg in 96 days? Probably
Day 26 80.0 kg, eating under control 2 days, 10.0 kg in 95 days? Probably.

Day 26-05/05--74.8 checked it five times whoop at last! I'm not undoing this. My first goal trousers fit perfectly. I've changed my steroids to right before I go to bed(so it doesn't keep me awake) and feel more energised this morning. My reason is I might be less hungry in the day if I've already slept 8 hours off. Worth a try right. I also got looked up and down at today, by a male stranger, which at 46 was a surprise.

Week 3 Goal: 302.2lbs
Week 3 actual weight: 310lbs

Hello, I just (re)joined MFP. Every time I've started on here, I go hot headed with logging foods, making sure I'm getting steps in and going all out at the gym. But then, my motivation dies within a month.
So this time, I'm going slow. Starting with making better choices in meals (ie: cooking meals at home instead of being tired and ordering take out) and logging everything.
I'm also trying to make sure I get 64-80oz of water in daily. In a week or two, I'll see about adding in more physical activity.

Day 22-05/01--312.2lbs

Day 23-05/02--312.2lbs

Day 24-05/03--311.7lbs made the decision (fully knowing I was not going to stay on track today), to go out with friends to the bar, then after that had fast food

Day 25-05/04--312.2lbs

Day 26-05/05-- 313.5 lbs I'm not excited to see the scale go the wrong way, however, I knew what I was doing. I had a great weekend, and though I did eat wrong, I did make healthier choices I wouldn't have a couple of weeks ago, so that's a win in my mind.

How wonderful about the graduation! I can "see" you beaming with pride : - )

Well, you know that I love to hear about stuff:
How big is the city that you went to?
What kind of restaurant?
What did everybody order?

@dawnbgethealthy We went to Traverse City (TC) which is wrapped around parts of Lake Michigan on the western shore of the lower Peninsula of Michigan. It seems it would be easy to navigate a simple circle city around water but it was so big it ventured to the left and right into oblivion. Thank Goodness for Google Maps GPS and my son knowing how to read it all while I drove! A beautiful city for sure, everywhere you looked was water. The Great Lakes are the largest freshwater lakes in the world so it's like looking at the ocean.

My daughter (graduate Beth) chose a special Mexican restaurant. We used to have an exact one about 1 1/2 hours away from us but they sold it to a cannabis company a few years ago so it was exciting to her to see the restaurant again. She ordered combo steak and chicken fajitas sizzling hot. I ordered a 3 part combo plate (taco, small burrito and enchilada) that came with rice and beans. I boxed the rice, beans, half the beef burrito and half the enchilada to take home. I shared a fresh baked brownie afterward with my son as I always have to end in sweet. I also order appetizer called firecrackers that came with a jalapeno pepper jelly. They are cream cheese, jalapeno pepper and bacon filled. So yummy! I split that with my two daughters. Foodie daughter Brittany always orders way more food than she will ever eat. She is petite tiny and eats like a bird. She took nearly all her food home and it was A LOT of Food. My ex-husband ordered something on the mild side because he is a weak little wimp and hasn't changed one ioda. LOL, just kidding. It's okay that he prefers mild sauces. Teens had nacho grande or trio taco dinner. Little one's liked the chicken quesadillas with fries as their side choice. I drank water as usual and did not overeat. I paid for the full tab as part of the gift to Bethany.

I saw that we had passed a casino coming into TC but I didn't have much cash on me. I had changed purses and only brought a very small wallet for a credit card or two. I did not have my ATM card on me either and I really wanted to take Johnny, my autistic son, into the casino and let him see what it is like. I asked my ex John if he would walk over to an ATM that I spotted outside the restaurant and give me some money I would pay back later. I took $600.00 and Johnny and I left. Johnny really enjoyed the casino. It is so important to me that he experience some things. He is a loner and spends a lot of time down in his basement apartment with no challenges or stimulations. He really did love it. The lights and sounds did not seem to bother him. In the end we stayed about 5 hours (time flew!) I lost $90 and he lost $65 so he did better than me. He was so excited whenever he would hit a win of any kind. We left early enough heading south and east toward the Lake Huron area (but not all the way to that Great Lake) so we could navigate the unfamiliar parts of our trip in daylight, but we didn't get home until well after dark. Watching for deer is tricky.

This afternoon for lunch I gave Johnny the other half of my dinner (enchilada and burrito) and I ate the beans and rice. He will not eat either of those because the beans are too smooth and creamy and the rice is too textured. So what in the heck does he usually eat? Not many things due to his eating disorders related to Autism. I do wonder how much of this he got from me because of my weird eating style but my other kids are fine and eat very healthy so I dunno. I sure do have a lot more foods in my diet than he does!

I use my PC for MFP so when google puts my photos in my account online I will post a few. Beth will be 41 next month, Brittany is 29 until November and Johnny is 27 until July.

Its a long post, but you said you want to read it so...... Today I feel a bit bloated and my ankles have filled with fluid so I am going to have to push water. Sodium and too much sitting does it every time! Today I will stick to plan. Its a beautiful day outside but I left my house a mess and I really need to clean before the contractors come tomorrow so I'll probably be stuck inside most of the day. Ah well, summer is approaching and we should have many more nice days to come! I hope you and all the other readers are enjoying your Sunday.
