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: 173.2Day 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 27-05/06:DNW - I had such a fun weekend, it’s so hard to start back up on Monday! But start back up I will. I’m feeling the need to lower my cholesterol after recent bloodwork, and realized that my “faux risotto” I’ve been obsessed with for the past 3 months may be the culprit, since I add a fair amount of pecorino romano cheese…and when I don’t have that for dinner, I usually lean on zucchini noodles with boca crumbles & sauce – also with a goodly amount of pecorino romano. As usual it’s everything in moderation, and I have not been moderate in my consumption!! So did some meal prep this weekend of some old favorites that do NOT involve adding cheese – a healthy version of chicken tikka masala in the slow cooker and some cumin lime slaw that I mix with greens, a little salmon, some avocado & smoked hot sauce. I did a triple batch of the chicken tikka so have a massive store in my freezer now. Ready for the week!
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.
Day 10-04/19: 169.8 – Holy smokes, it is exciting to see a new decade on the scale! Though I’m traveling next week so I’m sure it will be short-lived, but it’s nice to have that extra buffer! Did a good cardio/weight workout & stretch – happy for Friday!!

Day 23-05/02: 170.6- I’ve been MIA for a bit – I traveled last week to throw my father and his wife a 50th wedding anniversary party, and had to deal with family drama (of course) – so I was totally off-course last Thurs through Sunday – got right back on track this past Monday, but am dealing with the stress of this new job plus construction going on in our bathroom, where we had to rip out the floor that the last contractor laid tile on without leveling, resulting in cracked tiles and a wonky vanity – so trucking two flights down to the basement to use the bathroom is a pain in the neck, especially since I’m up multiple times in the night, ugh. I was determined to get back into my workout schedule but only have had time for shortie workouts until today…doing a full 30 minutes of weights and cardio plus a 15 min stretch felt really good. But with all that going on it is with tremendous relief that I stepped on the scale this morning and am only up less than a pound! Still solidly at the low end of my maintenance window. I must have made enough good choices to off-set a big gain (there was lots of booze involved, but I wasn’t too bad with food)…and you know that family stress burns double the calories, ha ha. Whatever the reason, I’ll take it!!!
Day 24-05/03: 170.6 – had a good workout and stretch this morning, and can’t WAIT to relax this weekend! I think we’ll finally get the backyard set up – put the awning on the pergola, get flowers in the pots, plant some greens in the garden…it’s been so chilly here that I’m thinking I can get a crop of arugula going before it gets too hot…maybe half arugula and half “ Asian summer greens” which are like little bok choy leaves that do a little better in the heat. I’m not doing the usual tomatoes & cucumbers because the lanternflies were so horrific last year I had to tear everything out so they didn’t have as much to feed on!! So gross!! Plus I’ll be working straight through the summer so won’t really have time to tend the garden as much as I’d like. Anyway…this is the end of my weigh-in week so I hope everyone has a great weekend!

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.
Day 27-05/06--315lbs

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.

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: 176.7Day 01-04/10—176.7Day 22-05/01—173.8 Last night went out to Texas Roadhouse and had a semi-decadent dinner (ate bread and a full-fat side Caesar salad, but had the grilled chicken as a main). Going to try to be better today.
Day 02-04/11—176
Day 03-04/12—175.2
Day 04-04/13—174.6 Went to get a mani/pedi today which was lovely. Made a terrific seared salmon for dinner with baked potato and am stopping eating right now! No more eating. That’s it. or drinking. Let’s see how it goes.
Day 05-04/14—174.3 Succeeded with the no more eating last night. Also succeeded at moderation at an all-you-can eat buffet today (a ton of fresh vegetables and some fruit as well). Thus far the making good decisions is going well. But I think this downward trend is going to stop soon – I’ve lost all the water weight I’m going to lose. So now the work starts for real.
Day 06-04/15—173.9 Work kicked my butt today. Thankfully Josh and I walked this morning so don’t have to try to exercise right now. Just have to try not to stress-eat the entire fridge and pantry…
Day 07-04/16—174.2 Slight uptick but still met my goal weight so there’s that. Tough migraine day – had to take part of the day off from work today for bed rest. UGH.
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.
Day 09-04/18—175.2 migraine’s eased up and have stabilized with the weight. Now hopefully start to see a downward trend? Meditated again and was very moderate with lunch and breakfast. Will try to maintain for dinner.
Day 10-04/19—175.2
Day 11-04/20—174.7 I’m trying to be kind to myself with having felt so bad this week. I did have a ”woke myself up laughing” moment that I’m sure you’ll appreciate… I dreamt that I had gone into the office and was looking at a menu to pick out lunch. You know you’re counting calories IRL when your pick’s a clam chowder bread bowl with a bloomin’ onion topper!
Day 12-04/21—173.9 went to a cheeseburger party yesterday and did well with moderation (just one burger, limited sides, didn’t go bananas when in front of the potato chips although could have. Then came home and didn’t continue eating because I wasn’t hungry. Victory!
Day 13-04/22—174.4 another rough migraine day today.
Day 14-04/23—174.7 Just going to have to get myself together for next week.
Week 2 Goal: 173.7
Week 2 actual weight: 174.7
Day 15-04/24—176.1 Okay, so I blacked out and when I came to, I had eaten a full meal from Arby’s. in itself it wasn’t too bad calorie-wise, but sodium-wise it was devastating. Going out to play trivia at a local tavern and will get a moderate bowl – but still regretting last night.
Day 16-04/25—174.7 Better today.
Day 17-04/26—174.8
Day 18-04/27—174.1 Tasty dinner tonight – grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Mmm.
Day 19-04/28—174.1
Day 20-04/29—173.2
Day 21-04/30—174.2
Week 3 Goal: 171.7
Week 3 actual weight:174.2
Day 23-05/02—173.0
Day 24-05/03—172.6 So doing a better job of limiting calories at the end of the night. It’s really hard but it’s working thus far. Weekend ahead will be a real test though. Snacking is a problem. A real, real problem. Let’s see… What is my work? my work is not eating when i'm not hungry. Can that be a thing? a double negative? it's really my failing - i eat because things taste good. kind of the WORST reason to eat!
Day 25-05/04—171.8 At heart I’m a glutton, which is why I’m the size I am. I’ll be sitting around, and all of a sudden, I’ll think – “You know what’d be great right now? Buttered popcorn”. Or in the grocery store, passing the deli section, thinking “I know those wings taste pretty good; maybe grab a few for the drive home.” Even though wings are definitely not on my shopping list. It’s an ongoing struggle. Trying to find healthy things that also taste good – or stopping eating at a reasonable point – is a real challenge!
Day 26-05/05—172.5
Day 27-05/06—171.6

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 happenDay 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
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 I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.
Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
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 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes3 -
@deepwoodslady
Great photos Donna!! Thank you for that, you know that I love to see photos : - )
Thank you also for your writings. I also grew up around the great lakes. I see where Traverse City is on the map. Fairly north, but absolutely beautiful area. Pretty much right on Lake Michigan!
How far are you from home to get to a Great Lake?1 -
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
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: 146.2 - Started the week at 148.0 - Hit my goal once
Week 3 Goal: 145.6 - My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there. Hit it one time during week 2. Hit below it this week
Week 3 actual weight: 146.4
Day 22-05/01 - 146.4 - I got 6 of my 8 potato rows dug yesterday. Dependent on the weather, after work today I will get the rest dug and ready to plant (wet soil is too hard to move)
Yes, my grass needs cutting already, but getting stuff planted is more of a priority : - )
Day 23-05/02 - 146.6 - Finished the deep digging in my potato garden after work yesterday. I plan to get the potatoes in today after work as long as it isn't raining too much.
Day 24-05/03 - 146.4 - Potatoes are in. Working my normal day job in the restaurant today, and working at the new bar tonight. Big change in my timetable, kind of hope that I don't have to stay until 2am, but it is a very late crowd that go out, so we'll see.
Day 25-05/04 - 147.0 - I ate extremely late. I had to, I was feeling sick I was so hungry by 2am. Didn't manage to sleep in as late as I wanted to. I used to work late nights in the past, but it has been years. I go in at 5 tonight, so am going to go for a tan (so that I don't burn in Mexico) get the lawnmower down out of the spike in the shed, cut some of the grass, do some more planting...and stuff before I go to work at 5pm. Tonight will be very late eating again, going to make up some tuna to eat around 4:15. I have a loaf of Little Big Bread (silverhills) which is 110 calories for 2 slices and is filled with fibre. I took my homemade Jambalaya out of the freezer before going to work and will do the same today. Hopefully my body will get used to the late nights. Calories and exercise were on point. Off tomorrow, I was asked to work a shift at the restaurant but I declined - I have too much to do around here before going away on the 22nd and am scheduled to work 6 days this coming week including late nights.
Day 26-05/05 - 147.2 - Ditto to yesterday, very late in eating. Again, my calories and output were bang on, so I am not stressing about this. Full day off today! I want to get the rest of the grass cut before it starts to rain today. I can get planting done even in the rain, it will just be a bit muddy. I am tired this morning, so maybe I will actually relax and putter a bit this afternoon. I have been throwing stuff into my suitcase since January, so I will empty it out onto couches and begin to organize it over the next few days. Light workdays this week until later in the week. Dinner will be at a "normal" time, so hopefully I can drop a few lbs.
Day 27-05/06 - 146.8 - Spent my Sunday in the garden, I had a whole day off. Carrot and beet seeds have been planted in 3 separate beds. I knew that it was due to rain for 5 days, so wanted to get them in. The wind picked up and it began to rain at 4:30. Still lots to do before I go away. I have to get out to the garden centre for stuff this week, but am unsure of my schedule past tomorrow. Tomorrow off completely : - )
Day 28-05/07 -
Week 4 Goal: My start weight from the last 100. Plunking this in each week until I hit it and then go from there.
Week 4 actual weight:
started the 100 at 146.82 -

How far are you from home to get to a Great Lake?
@dawnbgethealthy I am a little bit closer to the Lake Huron Side than the Lake Michigan side but not by much. I am pretty high up there on the mitten in the northern part where it is pretty rural. Driving to the great lakes is something we do on occasion as some of our doctor specialists can be from those areas. We shop while we are in those cities and take advantage of some nice restaurants. Sometimes we carry out or fast food and eat at one of the many lakeside parks along the way. It really does look like an ocean when you are sitting nearby having lunch. I take off my shoes and walk along the waterline and get in some fitness steps in the most relaxing way! We look for shells or rocks too. My son is the one most often with me and I think I drive him crazy but as you can see in the pics, he seriously needs the exercise too. And what a wonderfully relaxing way to do it while getting in a little sight, sound and smell stimulation for him! I'm glad you enjoyed the pics. I'm very proud of my daughter. Very proud of all my family. I just don't like it that the child that pushes food on us and is always eating lucked out at a size 000. But we all know that life is not always fair! Your garden is looking great by the way. I have been enjoying your pics too.0 -

Day 22-05/01-- 63.6 kg.
Day 23-05/02-- 63.5 kg. Today is my 400th day tracking on MFP and I have lost 22 kg (48.5 lb)
Day 24-05/03-- 63.4 kg.
Day 25-05/04-- 63.3 kg.
Day 26-05/05-- 63.2 kg.
Day 27-05/06-- 63 kg. Waist 28 inches. Hips 38 inches. BMI 21. Not sure whether I should stop here or continue trying to lose. I have been unwell for the last 3 days and lost my appetite - hence the weight loss.
Day 28-05/07-- 63 kg. i think I will change my goal weight to 62 kg. 60 feels just a little too low for me (it's about what I weighed in my first year in college and my friends and family told me I was "too thin." I had depression and my appetite really dropped.)

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.
Day 27-05/06--75.4kg
Day 28-05/07--75.2kg perfectly acceptable as it's soon that time again 🥴 and I'm back to where I left start of last challenge. A month to lose a kg 😭

Starting date 6 May 2014
Hi, I’m 5.1 or 155cm and my heaviest and most unhealthy was 86kgs or 190lbs.
I have a collection of eating disorders and have finally found that meal-prepping is the thing that works for me.
I’ve also rediscovered my love for gyming so I weight train 5 days a week.
My goals are:
• To improve my health. Blood pressure specifically but also cardio and heart health.
• Feel confident around other people.
• Like the way I feel in clothes. Be able to enjoy shopping.
• Be able to wear dresses because my daughter (4 years) adores making me wear dresses.
• Ultimate weight goal, eventually… 54kgs or 120lbs

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.

Day 27-05/06-185.2-(Trend weight 183.4) May is not looking any better so far than April did. Ugh! I think the graduation party food and travel is creeping up on me. I was slightly over on carbs yesterday but my calories stayed about 1200. Yet I feel more pudgy today. Sticking to plan and trying to add a little more movement and fitness in today to hopefully budge the scale.
Day 28-05/07-185.2-(Trend weight 183.8) I don’t know why the scale is stalled, yesterday was a good day. Diet on point and I fit in a little more exercise/activity than usual. We’ll see in the coming days if it’s being stubborn and holding tantrums or if I’ve actually hit a plateau. Yesterday I held my head in shame and changed my ticker back to my current weight (increase) and I changed my colorful scratch off back to reflect that I have NOT left the 180's behind. I was disgusted to have to do that but I do need to stand in my truth and if I don't like it, I need to do something about it! Thanks to everyone for the compliment on the pictures I posted. As you can see, I hold most of my weight through my middle. I started this journey looking honestly about 8 ½ months pregnant and now I am down to about 5 months pregnant. I wish we could tell our bodies exactly where to lose our weight but it doesn’t work that way, sadly. So I will keep plugging away at this proverbial diabetic belly and keep in mind that it is overall fitness and strength I am after anyway and with that, the weight will work itself out. Anyway, thanks for all the compliments on my family. I think my kids are pretty great too!

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: 176.7Day 01-04/10—176.7Day 22-05/01—173.8 Last night went out to Texas Roadhouse and had a semi-decadent dinner (ate bread and a full-fat side Caesar salad, but had the grilled chicken as a main). Going to try to be better today.
Day 02-04/11—176
Day 03-04/12—175.2
Day 04-04/13—174.6 Went to get a mani/pedi today which was lovely. Made a terrific seared salmon for dinner with baked potato and am stopping eating right now! No more eating. That’s it. or drinking. Let’s see how it goes.
Day 05-04/14—174.3 Succeeded with the no more eating last night. Also succeeded at moderation at an all-you-can eat buffet today (a ton of fresh vegetables and some fruit as well). Thus far the making good decisions is going well. But I think this downward trend is going to stop soon – I’ve lost all the water weight I’m going to lose. So now the work starts for real.
Day 06-04/15—173.9 Work kicked my butt today. Thankfully Josh and I walked this morning so don’t have to try to exercise right now. Just have to try not to stress-eat the entire fridge and pantry…
Day 07-04/16—174.2 Slight uptick but still met my goal weight so there’s that. Tough migraine day – had to take part of the day off from work today for bed rest. UGH.
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.
Day 09-04/18—175.2 migraine’s eased up and have stabilized with the weight. Now hopefully start to see a downward trend? Meditated again and was very moderate with lunch and breakfast. Will try to maintain for dinner.
Day 10-04/19—175.2
Day 11-04/20—174.7 I’m trying to be kind to myself with having felt so bad this week. I did have a ”woke myself up laughing” moment that I’m sure you’ll appreciate… I dreamt that I had gone into the office and was looking at a menu to pick out lunch. You know you’re counting calories IRL when your pick’s a clam chowder bread bowl with a bloomin’ onion topper!
Day 12-04/21—173.9 went to a cheeseburger party yesterday and did well with moderation (just one burger, limited sides, didn’t go bananas when in front of the potato chips although could have. Then came home and didn’t continue eating because I wasn’t hungry. Victory!
Day 13-04/22—174.4 another rough migraine day today.
Day 14-04/23—174.7 Just going to have to get myself together for next week.
Week 2 Goal: 173.7
Week 2 actual weight: 174.7
Day 15-04/24—176.1 Okay, so I blacked out and when I came to, I had eaten a full meal from Arby’s. in itself it wasn’t too bad calorie-wise, but sodium-wise it was devastating. Going out to play trivia at a local tavern and will get a moderate bowl – but still regretting last night.
Day 16-04/25—174.7 Better today.
Day 17-04/26—174.8
Day 18-04/27—174.1 Tasty dinner tonight – grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Mmm.
Day 19-04/28—174.1
Day 20-04/29—173.2
Day 21-04/30—174.2
Week 3 Goal: 171.7
Week 3 actual weight:174.2
Day 23-05/02—173.0
Day 24-05/03—172.6 So doing a better job of limiting calories at the end of the night. It’s really hard but it’s working thus far. Weekend ahead will be a real test though. Snacking is a problem. A real, real problem. Let’s see… What is my work? my work is not eating when i'm not hungry. Can that be a thing? a double negative? it's really my failing - i eat because things taste good. kind of the WORST reason to eat!
Day 25-05/04—171.8 At heart I’m a glutton, which is why I’m the size I am. I’ll be sitting around, and all of a sudden, I’ll think – “You know what’d be great right now? Buttered popcorn”. Or in the grocery store, passing the deli section, thinking “I know those wings taste pretty good; maybe grab a few for the drive home.” Even though wings are definitely not on my shopping list. It’s an ongoing struggle. Trying to find healthy things that also taste good – or stopping eating at a reasonable point – is a real challenge!
Day 26-05/05—172.5
Day 27-05/06—171.6
Day 28-05/07—172.4 Long day today and frustrating wobbling around this weight. Hopefully next week helps see me shake it off. Have plans to go out for Mexican food for dinner so going to try to rein it in and be controlled – no chips/salsa, moderate main, no alcohol. That’s the plan, let’s see how it goes! I’ll report back in tomorrow. 😊
Week 4 Goal: 172.7
Week 4 actual weight: 172.4

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 happenDay 17 79.5 kg ate too much and didn't exercise at my desired level
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 I have a cold so I only managed half my exercise today, that's fine, eating was good.
Day 10 80.2 kg another day when I ate properly, two days in a row, plus two exercise sessions.
Day 11 79.7 kg a good day in terms of exercise and eating
Day 12 78.7 kg I don't see a 1 kg loss very often, anyway I overate again, although my exercise was as planned
Day 13 79.3 kg Another good day, exercise and diet were good. I've decided to attempt to lose 10 kg in 100 days - so this will move over to the next round. Starting tomorrow.
Day 14 79.4 kg I ran the numbers to see whether I could lose 10 kg in 100 days and it seems iffy, however I'm not particularly hungry as I lose weight, so I guess I should just eat less. I overate and did my required amount of exercise. I looked at my intake graph and since day 1 there's been 7 days when I've overeaten.
Day 15 79.7 kg I ate a bit too much and my exercise was less than required. 10 kg in 100 days: 10.3 kg to lose in 99 days. Can I do it? Probably.
Day 16 79.6 kg I ate too much but my exercise was alright. I've decided to delay the 10 kg in 100 days idea until my weight loss 'settles down'
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 27 79.6 kg, 9.6 kg in 94 days? Probably
Day 28 79.2 kg, 9.2 kg in 93 days? Graph says yes
Day 29 79.5 kg, 9.5 kg in 92 days? Graph says yes2 -
Day 29-05/08-- 63 kg. I just realised this Challenge ends on 17th July, which is my son's birthday.(41! Where have the years gone!) We usually go to our favorite Indian restaurant. For the last 2 years, every time we go, I have stuck to just a main and a small amount of rice, but if I can stay at current weight till then, I will have a treat! What will it be? Not sweets, as I've lost my taste for sugar - maybe some cheesy naan? We'll see.

Day 27-05/06:DNW - I had such a fun weekend, it’s so hard to start back up on Monday! But start back up I will. I’m feeling the need to lower my cholesterol after recent bloodwork, and realized that my “faux risotto” I’ve been obsessed with for the past 3 months may be the culprit, since I add a fair amount of pecorino romano cheese…and when I don’t have that for dinner, I usually lean on zucchini noodles with boca crumbles & sauce – also with a goodly amount of pecorino romano. As usual it’s everything in moderation, and I have not been moderate in my consumption!! So did some meal prep this weekend of some old favorites that do NOT involve adding cheese – a healthy version of chicken tikka masala in the slow cooker and some cumin lime slaw that I mix with greens, a little salmon, some avocado & smoked hot sauce. I did a triple batch of the chicken tikka so have a massive store in my freezer now. Ready for the week!jennysweet58 wrote: »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: 173.2Day 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!

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.
Day 10-04/19: 169.8 – Holy smokes, it is exciting to see a new decade on the scale! Though I’m traveling next week so I’m sure it will be short-lived, but it’s nice to have that extra buffer! Did a good cardio/weight workout & stretch – happy for Friday!!

Day 23-05/02: 170.6- I’ve been MIA for a bit – I traveled last week to throw my father and his wife a 50th wedding anniversary party, and had to deal with family drama (of course) – so I was totally off-course last Thurs through Sunday – got right back on track this past Monday, but am dealing with the stress of this new job plus construction going on in our bathroom, where we had to rip out the floor that the last contractor laid tile on without leveling, resulting in cracked tiles and a wonky vanity – so trucking two flights down to the basement to use the bathroom is a pain in the neck, especially since I’m up multiple times in the night, ugh. I was determined to get back into my workout schedule but only have had time for shortie workouts until today…doing a full 30 minutes of weights and cardio plus a 15 min stretch felt really good. But with all that going on it is with tremendous relief that I stepped on the scale this morning and am only up less than a pound! Still solidly at the low end of my maintenance window. I must have made enough good choices to off-set a big gain (there was lots of booze involved, but I wasn’t too bad with food)…and you know that family stress burns double the calories, ha ha. Whatever the reason, I’ll take it!!!
Day 24-05/03: 170.6 – had a good workout and stretch this morning, and can’t WAIT to relax this weekend! I think we’ll finally get the backyard set up – put the awning on the pergola, get flowers in the pots, plant some greens in the garden…it’s been so chilly here that I’m thinking I can get a crop of arugula going before it gets too hot…maybe half arugula and half “ Asian summer greens” which are like little bok choy leaves that do a little better in the heat. I’m not doing the usual tomatoes & cucumbers because the lanternflies were so horrific last year I had to tear everything out so they didn’t have as much to feed on!! So gross!! Plus I’ll be working straight through the summer so won’t really have time to tend the garden as much as I’d like. Anyway…this is the end of my weigh-in week so I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Day 29-05/08: 170.2 – Good to see the weekend indulgences are gone, and a little extra. Was up at 4am to start work, and just forced myself to stop and do a light 15 minute cardio set & yoga stretch. This job is the worst I’ve had in a long time, with the boss blaming me to things she never communicated to me… though the nice thing about freelance is nothing is forever. I reached out to my last boss to tell her how much I missed her and she actually might have work for me by August, so that gives me hope to just hang in there, take the paycheck, and get out when I can. Not the best attitude for work but it’s the best I can manage right now!4 -
Um....
Stopping smoking so that I am not "jones-ing" during my upcoming trip.
Mexico changed everything in 2023, no smoking on the beach, street, parks, cafes, resorts etc.
This process is horrible, but I would rather go through it now than enroute or while there.
I am a sweaty crazy mess right now, but I got through an entire day. I had to do it on a day off.
I feel like if I can get through 3 days that it will become easier.
My plan was never to stop forever, just to get it out of my system before travel.
We'll see.3
