    So it looks like our weeks are going to begin ending on Mondays instead of Tuesdays starting next week.
    Yes, we will have May 21st twice, but rather than try to change all of the weeks each time I say that we could just use them as written for the rest of the 100 and let our weekly end date change by one.

    Thoughts?

    @dawnbgethealthy Oops. My fault. I can fix from day 43 on and repost just 43-100 if you like. That would probably be a lot less confusing. Prefer? Mine is okay because its done on a different notepad due to me adding all the color etc. I will post it below. Sorry about the mix-up.

    I always just go back to page one to get the new week's dates. I will try and remember which page to go to. If not I will just use them as is?

    @deepwoodslady

    I think that you just ate out way more than usual.
    I figure 1-3 pounds for each time eating out. Even just a salad with grilled chicken at a restaurant seems to add 2 pounds to me.

    You've got this.
    You know what to do.

    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

    Week 4 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 4 actual weight: 147.6

    Week 5 Goal: stopping smoking week as of May 7
    Week 5 actual weight: 149.6

    Day 36-05/15 - 149.4 - Actually expected more of a drop today, but I guess .2 of a drop is okay. Working at the restaurant and then the bar today, paycheque cut off for both so glad to be putting in some hours that should get put into my account some time while I am away : - )

    Day 37-05/16 - 150.6 - Posting this a day late. Unexpected extra shifts and I have soooo much to do before leaving for my trip, and little time left to do it all. Pasting in next weeks dates now so that I don't have to spend time doing it while away.

    Day 38-05/17 - 150.8 - Weirdly not upset with these weight gains that are possibly tied to the stopping smoking. I completely plan to eat and drink my face off at the all-inclusive in Cancun. Yes, I will be taking a scale in my suitcase as I do while traveling, but I will not be foregoing any food or beverages. I am not sure how much I will be posting, but I will have my laptop with me.

    Day 39-05/18 - 149.6 - Guts are still terrible. 2-4 weeks after stopping smoking until they even out? Hoping closer to the 2 week mark. Day 12 begun today. I would really like to have a smoke, but don't want to have to go through those first 3 days of withdrawal again, so I won't. Not even close to being ready for my trip, but only working 1 job today later on, so I will try to get some of that done after I do a few dances to loosen up my body and joints.

    Day 40-05/19 - 150.2 - Intense gut thing around 3am. Maybe my guts are ready to let stuff go. Day 13 of stopping smoking, really really want a cigarette, but I need to not since it is only a couple more days until I am on planes and stuff. I have already put next weeks dates in because my laptop will get packed up, but I see that I have the 21st twice for some reason. I will investigate that this morning.

    Day 41-05/20 - 148.2 - Somehow dropped 2 pounds overnight? I used the new dates Donna, but I prefer the "Goal" and "actual weight" to the "Loss or Gain" and "accumulated loss or gain" so I will stick with that previous format from page 1 and either come back here to page 27 or copy somebody else's new week when it comes up on the 29th while I am in Cancun. Running out of time before my trip! Ankle injection early tomorrow morning, with appointments to follow.

    Day 42-05/21 - Packing up my laptop

    Week 6 Goal:

    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
    Day 01-04/10—176.7
    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 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 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

    Day 29-05/08—172.4 Okay, mixed success at the Mexican restaurant yesterday. Did do some grazing on chips and salsa but had a fairly responsible main (grilled chicken/chipotle sauce, black beans). It was a ton of sodium, though, which is why I think the scale did what it did.
    Day 30-05/09—172.4 And hit a plateau. Got to try to get off this level but it will be hard with a couple nice meals ahead with my mom and my mother-in-law this weekend. Have to stay focused and not just go bonkers on carbs!
    Day 31-05/10—172.7 Damnit. When I wanted to move off the plateau I didn’t mean in this direction.
    Day 32-05/11—172.5 Happy Mother’s Day! I’ll be happy if I come out of this weekend without having gained weight – with two big meals with the two families… it’s a lot of eating!
    Day 33-05/12—172.3 Okay, no weight gain. I’ll take it.
    Day 34-05/13—173.4 There’s the weight gain. Was waiting for that. I did eat quite a bit this weekend. And a lot of sodium for dinner last night. This week is going to be a rough one. Going to have to adjust all my goals…
    Day 35-05/14—173.0

    Week 5 Goal: 170.7
    Week 5 actual weight: 173.0
    Day 36-05/15—173.0
    Day 37-05/16—171.0 yesterday had a horrible migraine. The nausea was so bad that I got super dehydrated and barely ate anything. So I think this dip is completely artificial. Still feel awful today. Bleh.
    Day 38-05/17—170.9 slowly getting better from this migraine. Still very nauseated. Just trying to take it easy.
    Day 39-05/18—170.7 had a lovely piece of salmon for dinner tonight. Mmm.
    Day 40-05/19—170.7 Hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’ve been doing some work, so lots of computer time (just like during the week). While I’ve been super productive, it’s been a bit on the sedentary side. Josh and I have a vacation coming up – we’re going to Reno. We’re going to spend our days out in nature, hiking, and our nights at the casinos. I’m really looking forward to it. Is it weird to pack a scale to bring on vacation? I mean I’ll have space in my checked luggage. But maybe a few days of “DNW” won’t hurt me either. I’ll have to mull this one over. My goal is to not gain weight during the vacation. I’m under no illusions – I am not going to lose any. But not gaining would be nice, given the drinking and decadent food options there will (presumably) be.
    Day 41-05/20—170.9 okay was a tad irresponsible last night with the pizza dinner but at least kept servings reasonable. So there was that? It’s also my birthday week so there’s going to be more eating out and lots of temptation. Wish me luck! And I'm definitely going to consider taking the scale on vacation. it may help to "keep me honest". :-)

    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 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 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 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 yes
    Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
    Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
    Day 32 77.7 kg
    Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
    Day 34 77.2 kg
    Day 35 77.4 kg
    Day 36 77.6 kg
    Day 37 77.5 kg
    Day 38 77.2 kg
    Day 39 77.5 kg
    Day 40 77.8 kg
    Day 41 77.8 kg
    Day 42 77.5 kg

    Week 6 actual weight: 151 - it's a bigger drop than I anticipated but that is because it's my first week back to calorie counting so some of it will be water weight. I expect next week will be a bit slower

    End of 6 weeks and ( I think) I'm finding a rhythm with weekend treats and weekday patterns that works for maintenance. I'm very cautious about what I "taste" vs what I "eat"!

    Kinda demoralized but I’m keeping on it. It’s definitely mental- I keep letting myself slip because of bad day this and woe is me that. Anyway, I have 4 days to be good then it’s a busy social weekend (calories galore) and an international work trip (more calories galore). Still setting my week 7 goal aggressively at 153.8. I can do it! Typing to y’all does help!

    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

    Week 4 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 4 actual weight: 147.6

    Week 5 Goal: stopping smoking week as of May 7
    Week 5 actual weight: 149.6

    Day 42-05/21 - 151.0 - Weighed extremely early . I will be packing up my laptop soon. Early morning injection into my ankle and not supposed to be on it much for a couple of days. Just sitting on planes tomorrow. Getting in lots of dance workout songs this morning before going to get my injection. I am also getting my grey roots dyed and stuff today. So much to do still before I leave. I am leaving the house at 4am tomorrow, so weigh in will be at 3am? Lol, maybe I don't want to do that to myself, start my trip feeling sad about a high weight. Getting up at 2am, perhaps it will be a DNW day. My laptop will already be in my car so I won't be posting until Thursday or Friday although I will be weighing and keeping track.

    Week 6 Goal: Didn't set one
    Week 6 actual weight: 151.0 - extremely early weigh in, so it might be inflated

    100 Days of Weighing In #19 ^^^^^ April 10th 2024 thru July 18th

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

    My Name is Donna, Age 64. I am 5’5” tall & I live in Northern Michigan USA
    Starting Weight from End of Last Challenge: : 182.2
    Goal This Round: 170.2
    Challenge Actual Ending Weight: xxxxxTotal Lost/Gained this challenge: xxxxx

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

    Round #18---182.2


    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 41-05/20-188.2-(Trend weight 186.5) I enjoyed the outing yesterday. It was a beautiful, hot, sunny day. I spent some time thinking about where I am going wrong these past two months and I have some ideas and unfortunate changes to make, at least while I’m going through my funk. It starts today. Feeling pretty frumpy. Goodbye Frump!

    Day 42-05/21-188.2-(Trend weight 186.7) I made ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE food choices yesterday thanks to some food my workers brought in to share. I really should have used my “no thank you” manners! I was under calorie for the day but the carbs were through the roof. I ended up going without a proper dinner last night just to make up for it. Luckily it did not put me into a sugar drop binge or a hungry without my dinner binge. I really need to see a drop tomorrow on the scale so I will be pre-logging my food today to help me stay focused.

    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
    Day 01-04/10—176.7
    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 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 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

    Day 29-05/08—172.4 Okay, mixed success at the Mexican restaurant yesterday. Did do some grazing on chips and salsa but had a fairly responsible main (grilled chicken/chipotle sauce, black beans). It was a ton of sodium, though, which is why I think the scale did what it did.
    Day 30-05/09—172.4 And hit a plateau. Got to try to get off this level but it will be hard with a couple nice meals ahead with my mom and my mother-in-law this weekend. Have to stay focused and not just go bonkers on carbs!
    Day 31-05/10—172.7 Damnit. When I wanted to move off the plateau I didn’t mean in this direction.
    Day 32-05/11—172.5 Happy Mother’s Day! I’ll be happy if I come out of this weekend without having gained weight – with two big meals with the two families… it’s a lot of eating!
    Day 33-05/12—172.3 Okay, no weight gain. I’ll take it.
    Day 34-05/13—173.4 There’s the weight gain. Was waiting for that. I did eat quite a bit this weekend. And a lot of sodium for dinner last night. This week is going to be a rough one. Going to have to adjust all my goals…
    Day 35-05/14—173.0

    Week 5 Goal: 170.7
    Week 5 actual weight: 173.0
    Day 36-05/15—173.0
    Day 37-05/16—171.0 yesterday had a horrible migraine. The nausea was so bad that I got super dehydrated and barely ate anything. So I think this dip is completely artificial. Still feel awful today. Bleh.
    Day 38-05/17—170.9 slowly getting better from this migraine. Still very nauseated. Just trying to take it easy.
    Day 39-05/18—170.7 had a lovely piece of salmon for dinner tonight. Mmm.
    Day 40-05/19—170.7 Hope everyone is having a great weekend! I’ve been doing some work, so lots of computer time (just like during the week). While I’ve been super productive, it’s been a bit on the sedentary side. Josh and I have a vacation coming up – we’re going to Reno. We’re going to spend our days out in nature, hiking, and our nights at the casinos. I’m really looking forward to it. Is it weird to pack a scale to bring on vacation? I mean I’ll have space in my checked luggage. But maybe a few days of “DNW” won’t hurt me either. I’ll have to mull this one over. My goal is to not gain weight during the vacation. I’m under no illusions – I am not going to lose any. But not gaining would be nice, given the drinking and decadent food options there will (presumably) be.
    Day 41-05/20—170.9 okay was a tad irresponsible last night with the pizza dinner but at least kept servings reasonable. So there was that? It’s also my birthday week so there’s going to be more eating out and lots of temptation. Wish me luck! And I'm definitely going to consider taking the scale on vacation. it may help to "keep me honest". :-)
    Day 42-05/21—169.8

    Week 6 Goal: 169.7

    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 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 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 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 yes
    Day 30 78.9 kg, I have food poisoning of some sort, I've lost my appetite and so my weight is dropping, when I start eating properly again I expect to gain a bit. Anyway, 10 kg in 100 days challenge looks good right now
    Day 31 78.1 kg, another major loss, this is going to ruin my 10 day average since it will increase when I recover, I want to beat my personal best of about 20 days of continuous losing
    Day 32 77.7 kg
    Day 33 77.5 kg, I've decided to pause the lose 10 kg in 100 days challenge, there are digestive problems and there's a heatwave where I'm living so I'm just not up to exercise right now
    Day 34 77.2 kg
    Day 35 77.4 kg
    Day 36 77.6 kg
    Day 37 77.5 kg
    Day 38 77.2 kg
    Day 39 77.5 kg
    Day 40 77.8 kg
    Day 41 77.8 kg
    Day 42 77.5 kg
    Day 43 78.2 kg
