    215 - Goal this round

    Day / Weight Daily Weigh In / 14 Day Trend Weight / Comments report day of activity

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

    2020 SW: 235 BMI 41.6 (1/1/2020) Then back up to 241 before refocusing in Aug
    2021 SW: 212 BMI 37.6 (1/1/2021) NOTE: Low 201.1 in August 2021
    2022 SW: 209 BMI 37.0 (1/1/2022) Lost focus on myself while helping with 2 new grand babies (Jan & June); also started teaching ESL on Tues & Thurs morning and no longer went to in person Strong & Fit class … EXCUSES EXCUSES

    2024 SW: 230 BMI 40.7 (1/1/2024) Refocus 6/22/2024
    2025 SW: ⁉️ It’s totally up to you and within your control


    Strategy:
    Bike 30 min 3-4x weekly
    Strong & Fit 1 hr class 2x weekly
    Water 72+ oz daily
    Journal every bite focusing on low net carb <100g
    Weekly weigh in on Mondays


    226.6 - Ending weight last round on 7/11/2024 before vacation.
    7/11-7/25: DNW - Vacation Iceland & Norway
    7/26: 229.2 / 229.0 - Gained 2.6 lbs on vacation at first weigh in. I expect some of this to be travel bloat and disappear by tomorrow but not all! I did walk most days 2-6 miles which I'm proud of! Pushed through the knee pain. And one day I actually got on the bike in the gym on the boat. :)
    Not surprised that my weight is up. After a day of travel leaving at 3am Thursday morning from the hotel in Oslo … hour drive to the airport… flights to Paris, Detroit, Houston (airplane food on each leg of the journey and 3 bags of chips on the last flight) … landed in Houston at 6pm … picking up our dog & dinner with our son’s family at 7:30pm, another hour driving home finally home at 10:00pm Thursday night (which was 5am Friday morning Oslo time). So all in all a 26 hour travel day.
    Broke my promise to myself so vacation eating plan was a fail in that I ate the bread basket every night at dinner and dessert at lunch, dinner and 4pm tea time on a 11 night cruise! Oh boy such bad habits on vacation to over come. Otherwise my eating was really healthy with small portions and no snacking. Lots of room to improve on my next cruise in October.
    Now to tackle these pounds and not let them continue to slip back into the 230s.
    7/27: 227.5 / 228.6 - The real weight gain from my trip is .9 lbs! Less than a pound. Shedded the bloat from the long 26 hours of travel and got my body reset to this time zone. I’ll take it and tackle that little gain before it slips away from me. 😊 Now to make progress … meaning I need to focus on WATER, exercise and journaling every bite remembering small portions pay off big dividends helping me toward my goals.
    Biked 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
    7/28: 226.0 / 227.8 - Back to clean living and better habits. Grocery shopping was huge since before leaving due to the hurricane electrical outage for 3-4 days we had to throw EVERYTHING out of our 2 fridge/freezers. So lots of fresh food and very few temptations or snacks in the house. DH didn’t even buy cookies so there are no sweets to add calories after dinner. Created menus and bought only what was needed though I did forget salad dressing … guess the selection balsamic my sister gave me for Christmas will due in a pinch. LOL
    Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80+ oz
    7/29: 225.5 / 227.1 - Didn’t make strength training class since DH has Covid and I had to deal with the AC guy for our annual checkup. He was early and showed up when my class was suppose to start. So after he left I got on the bike instead.
    Bike 30 min, journaled, water 80 oz

    Weekly Goal: Lose any vacation pounds and ensure I’m back < 227
    Actual Weight: 225.5 - BMI = 40
    Challenge Weight Loss: 1.1
    🎯 Returning from vacation and getting myself started back on the healthy journey was key this week. I’m happy with my focus and determination. Now to focus on no longer being labeled “morbidly” obese.


    7/30: 224.8 / 226.2 - Bike 30, journaled, water 80 oz. Focusing on getting the 7 hrs recommended sleep.
    7/31: 224.5 / 225.5 - Since I missed strength training Monday I’ll tune into her private YouTube channel and do a make up session. I put it off not feeling my best so probably will test for Covid later today. Skipped all exercise instead this Wednesday. First time in the red since I had not activity to burn off extra calories. 1228 cal and 70 net carbs. Felt so awfully full in the evening that I had to stretch out and go to bed early. Journaled and 80 oz water.
    8/1: 224.4 / 225.0 - Feeling good this morning but still have an uncomfortably full sensation. Otherwise feel normal. Negative Covid test! Biked 30 72+ oz water. Journaled a big bowl of red beans and rice but the surprise was the 31 carbs in my store bought prepackaged salad! Roundtrip 3 hours to north part of Houston to watch my granddaughter for 2 hrs. DH is considering moving to be closer.
    8/2: 224.1 / 224.5 - Today’s focus … after my exercise class … prep for the party. Buying everything for the charcuterie board I’m making for the party, bake dark chocolate brownies, an then picking up wine & special iced cookies for the party tomorrow. The other grandmother is having tea sandwiches made, buying a dip, wine, variety of sparkling waters and she hired someone to act as bartender and to keep the place picked up during the party (la-di-da but that is how she rolls in her world … the party is at her house in a very nice upscale area inside Houston).
    Only did 20 min of my strength training class because I became dizzy and almost fainted. Had to lay down. Journaled. 72+ oz water.
    8/3: 224.8 / 224.4 - Not at all surprised by the up tic on the scale. Lunch out with my daughter yesterday and though we split the meal I let her order … chips with spinach artichoke dip, chicken strips, French fries. Nothing healthy about it! Then I ate brownies because they made a crumbled mess out of the pan and didn’t get a clean square … probably ate 2.
    Today I need to be a little more cautious in my eating! Sip & See for my new granddaughter. Myself and the other grandmother are hosting a large party of our lady friends (45-50) to meet all 3 of my grandchildren. No exercise, no journal but did drink my water. Didn’t eat anything at the party but did have a slice of brisket at my son’s and a cookie when I returned home.
    8/4: 223.5 / 223.9 - Nothing planned today but the bike and painting. May get out and weed some though the heat is stifling. Way too much charcuterie and cookie leftovers in the house. DH & I could have charcuterie for lunch or dinner every day this week LOL
    Bike 30 min, water definitely but not sure of the oz, no journal.
    8/5: 223.7 / 223.7 - I successfully made my goal this week!!!
    20 min strength training, not enough water and no journaling.

    Weekly Goal: Obese stage 2 BMI 39.9 @ <225 No longer 🚫 morbidly obese!
    Actual Weight: 223.7 - BMI 39.7
    Challenge Weight Loss: 2.9
    🎯 I moved out of Morbidly obese stage 3 and into obese stage 2! ✔️
    Now to work my way down to obese stage 1 around 197 but I’ll first have to hit many milestones to get there.
    NSV - I “slid” my cellphone into my front pocket of my pants with lots of room to spare. (Aug 2024) ✔️


    8/6: 224.6 / 223.8 - Bike 30 min, no journal.
    8/7: 223.4 / 223.5 - No planned exercise for Wed! Need to focus on water. Though I’m not journaling my portion control has been spot on and no time for snacking the last few days.
    8/8: 223.5 / 223.4 - Bike 30 min, water, but only half journaling and way over my net carb limit of <100 due to snacking on crackers.
    8/9: 224.4 / 223.5 - Strength training 40 min, water, but still no journaling.
    8/10: 222.9 / 223.2 - No exercise or journaling.
    8/11: 224.2 / 223.4 - No exercise or journaling.
    8/12: 223.0 / 223.2 - Pre-journaled my food plan. Slight change in food plan for lunch. No exercise … forgot how time consuming a 2 month old is!

    Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
    Actual Weight: 223.0
    Challenge Weight Loss: xx
    🎯 Many poor food choices, no journaling for the entire week, exercise also thrown off since DD & grandkids stayed with us while her husband had pneumonia. Cannot let grandkids be the reason I regain the weight like 2022!

    8/13: 223.3 / 223.1 - No exercise, no journaling
    8/14: 223.8 / 223.2 - Travel day round trip to granddaughter’s ~3 hrs and caring for her today. Bad food choices, no journaling, no exercise, lacked water.
    8/15: 225.1 / 223.7 - Bike 30, no journal and lacked water. I have today all to myself … so plenty of time to work on my own goals, exercise and make great decisions!
    8/16: 223.5 / 223.6 - Thought that spike might have been temporary. Glad to see the number come back down! Baby duty today for my 2 month old. She starts daycare on Monday. So I’m planning to enjoy all the snuggles I can get though I will miss my strength training class. No exercise or journaling and still need to work on water. But my meals were barely there … like I took some turkey deli meat and that was it for lunch. Not one single snack all day!
    8/17: 222.8 / 223.4 - Good the trend is going back down! Tonight I babysit but today is mine for exercise and painting. Bike 30 min and drank more water.
    8/18: 222.3 / 223.0 - Today roundtrip car trip to my son’s to help unload and move furniture they bought. My goal is to bike this morning since we don’t have to be there until noon. DH & I decided to eat at home for both lunch and dinner and it makes a huge difference. No snacking. 30 min bike! 80+ oz water.
    8/19: 220.5 / 222.1 - WOW! Controlling what I put in my body makes a huge difference … something I need to remember. Opportunity to eat out before and after our roundtrip to my son’s home to help move furniture. Instead of lunch out for burgers & fries at a new place DH & I made open faced sandwich and a few olives for salty. Returning from my son’s we almost went to an Italian restaurant but came home cooked a steak and romaine lettuce on the grill with a homemade lemon parmesan thyme dressing.
    📚 tonight + strength training today 40 min. AF ✔️

    Weekly Goal (until I hit it): < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
    Actual Weight: 220.5 - BMI 39.1
    Challenge Weight Loss: 6
    🎯 Getting back on the bike, water and watching what I eat always pays off focusing Thurs-Sun. I need to remember this when my schedule goes crazy like it did in the earlier part of the week! I was able to bounce back. Aug 10 last Saturday I was in the 222 range but then let life happen and it slipped away. The old me would have avoided the scale at all cost after Wed after a really bad eating day and travel. But I did the daily stepping on registered it and moved on. Yeah me! It was mostly temporary due to time in a car and eating out processed food / sodium … so I had hoped I could reel it back in and I did. Ignoring things never got me anywhere. Got back down again not letting my weekend dictate slacking off. Full steam ahead started on Thursday and it paid off for my weekly weigh in. Now to not let up or slip up! I have dinner with book club ladies Monday and Wednesday night at restaurants this next week.

    8/20: 220.9 / 221.6 - Okay into the stretch shooting for the teens! Bike 30 min, water 80 oz. ✔️
    8/21: 221.3 / 221.3 - Today will be challenging. Driving to care for my granddaughter. Eating out lunch and dinner. Leaving at 9am returning at 9pm. Mexican food and chips temptation at bookclub. 📚 Dined out at Mexican restaurant for both lunch and& dinner. Tried to keep my portions down and not eat everything on my plate and counted chips. Did not order any rice, beans, etc and ate only 2 of 3 enchiladas at lunch and half order of quesadillas at dinner. AF. No exercise Wednesday but lots of water. ✔️
    8/22: 220.8 / 220.9 - Prep day for procedure only clear liquids which thank goodness includes black coffee, tea, chicken broth. Alcohol Free (AF)! Still feeling full from all the chicken enchiladas and chicken quesadillas yesterday. Met with design team on remodeling our downstairs. Next week we meet with the contractors and appliance people. Lunch out with DD & DH. While they ate I sipped on my chicken broth in a Yeti cup that kept it warm for the trip and more water. No exercise but plenty of water.✔️
    8/23: 219.3 / 220.3 - Lacking sleep. This is definitely not a diet to lose weight!!! Love that I touched the teens but positive it is a temporary loss. Scheduled Colonoscopy & Endoscopy. Results are fine. No exercise, lots of water, regular meals. Slept most of the afternoon. ✔️
    8/24: 223.4 / 221.0 - I knew it would be up from yesterday’s low but this is ridiculous! Still resting no exercise, lots of water. Not snacking and meals have not been that bad but did indulge in ice cream after dinner when watching a movie.
    8/25: 222.0 / 221.2 - Cannot believe how off kilter I am on the scale … you would think after a colonoscopy the numbers would be down. Dinner at my son’s cancelled since DIL is sick. Bike 30 min.
    8/26: 221.8 / 221.4 - Glad the number is coming back down but disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. Driving 2+ hr to pick up my granddaughter so she can spend the days and nights here so my son can work and my DIL can recover from fever, upper respiratory infection, etc … she needs rest, fluids, antibiotics. Walked outside 1/4 mile with stroller.✔️

    Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
    Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Glass of water before coffee ✔️
    Actual Weight: 221.8
    GAINED this week: 1.3
    Challenge Weight Loss: 4.8
    🎯 Disappointed that I let it get out of hand. Not really sure why or what happened. I didn’t snack but were my portions larger than I thought? Need to focus on journaling every bite again.

    8/27: 220.2 / 220.9 - Finally back down to 220 again. Maybe my body has finally rid itself of all the bloat after the colonoscopy. Now to continue and break through the 220s! Granddaughter duty today. No exercise. Did not journal my food at all … not one single bite.
    8/28: 220.5 / 220.8 - Okay today focus! Not traveling today and no granddaughter duty since my son said he would stay home and work and care for her so I don’t have to make the drive again. Bike 30 min, lacked water and still not journaling.
    8/29: 221.1 / 220.7 - No excuses today! Bike 30 min
    8/30: 220.3 / 220.5 - Plans to bike, menu plan, grocery shop, drink more water! No bike. UTI so meds and water!
    8/31: 219.7 / 220.1 - Plans to bike … and today I will just do it! Plenty of water in my plan as well. 2nd time seeing 219.x! Can I keep the scale from slipping up again into the 220s and soon mark it off as a scale victory? To check it off my list I need to see it multiple days in a row … so here we got trying to hold on to 219 through the weekend! Biked 30 min. Snacking go to me for the first time in a while during the afternoon.
    9/1: 220.1 / 220.0 - Bounced back into the 220s. Darn! Today we are having family over for fajitas. No exercise except chasing a toddler. Too much food!
    9/2: 220.8 / 220.1 - I need the brownies my sister brought yesterday out of the house! I ate 3 yesterday. Today my goal is not even a nibble. Ate them anyway and they are still not gone! 30 min on bike. Still not journaling.

    Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
    Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Journal every bite! ✔️ Notice that I didn’t even attempt this habit once this past week. Really becoming a problem.
    Actual Weight: 220.8
    Challenge Weight Loss: 5.8
    🎯 Wasn’t able to hold on to the 219.x after all. I need more discipline in my life.

    9/3: 220.6 / 220.2 - No art class today. DH started auditing graduate level Math Economics classes at Rice Univ on Tues & Thurs (w/ labs Tues night & Friday day). So I have plenty of time to myself today for exercise, weeding, reading and painting. Bike 30 min. ✔️
    9/4: 221.7 / 220.6 - Wrong direction! ✔️Drive to babysit granddaughter and birthday celebration dinner for my sister. No exercise.
    9/5: 221.0 / 220.7 - Wrong direction! ✔️ Plans to bike today! Biked 30 min.
    9/6: DNW - Girls weekend with old college friends ... need to wrap my head around food and drink before diving into the situation.
    9/7: DNW -
    9/8: DNW -
    9/9: 222.7 / 221.9 - Fun weekend but obviously went overboard on the food front. Bike 30 min. Journaled for the first time in a month!

    Weekly Goal: < 220 - Break through the 220s into the teens … 220's
    Weekly Positive Habit Focus: Water before coffee ✔️
    Actual Weight: 221.7
    Gained this week: .9
    Challenge Weight Loss: 4.9
    🎯 I really need to get serious if I want to hit 215 before my birthday at the end of October. I need to get back to journaling every bite. If I don’t get one other thing right this week it needs to be that.

    9/10: 220.5 / 221.6 - Busy day ahead … Learn English Ministry volunteer teaching for adults in the community starts back up for today. I teach level 2 out of 4 levels. Then art class after lunch and a sorority alumni craft party this evening in town. Journaled yesterday for the first time in forever! Plans to do that again today :) No exercise. Avoided journaling. Snacked in the afternoon when I was not really hungry, then dinner out with DH and couldn’t finish my real meal, skipped the food at my evening meeting.
    9/11: 220.7 / 221.3 - No excuses today. Need to both exercise and journal.

    Hi : - )
    I am Dawn.
    5'2"
    63 and will turn 64 during this 100
    Cranbrook, BC

    The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
    I have gained in each of the last 6 of them!
    I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.


    Week 1 Goal: 146.2 - Start weight of the previous 100
    Week 1 actual weight: 148.0 - Started the week at 147.2

    Week 2 Goal: 147s
    Week 2 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 148.2

    Week 3 Goal: 146s
    Week 3 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 147.6

    Week 4 Goal: back to 147.2 and lower
    Week 4 actual weight: 146.4 -Started the week at 147.2

    Week 5 Goal: 145.6 - Start weight of the 2 ago 100 days challenge
    Week 5 actual weight: 146.6 - Started the week at 145.6

    Week 6 Goal: 145.6
    Week 6 actual weight: 145.2 - Started the week at 146.0



    Week 7 Goal: Didn't make a specific goal this week
    Week 7 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 145.6

    Halfway point Day 50 - 146.0

    Day 50—09/06 – 146.0 - I was at 130 on my 61st birthday. By now I should be at my healthy weight of 110-118 for a 5'2" person, the trajectory looked promising. My highest weight btw was 207, I had high blood pressure and the doc told me to lose weight, so I did. It is a struggle. I did eat some of those wonderful green beans for dinner last night with a small potato salad made out of my garden and an egg.
    Day 51—09/07— 146.2 - Saturday night after work is usually where I indulge a little in something that don't eat during the week. Not sure what that will be yet today. Beautiful and sunny here. I am going to get out into the yard for most of the day because I don't get ready for work until 3pm. Work on that tan : - )
    Day 52—09/08— 146.6 - Went out in the garden and made myself some Nachos with a couple of cocktails last night after work. Not sure yet what I will eat today, but coffee is tasting great. I was offered a shift, but didn't take it at the LTC place. Sacrificing the extra $$ for well being. Lots and lots to do in the yard. I will be out there today with my bathing suit on getting a tan as I sweat. Fitness Marshall soon to grease me up so that I don't pull anything.
    Day 53—09/09— 146.4 - Running late today (couldn't get out of bed) I have to prep lunch and something to take for my long shift tonight, and of course put it all into my tracker. Apples will be my breakfast/continuous snack for my day job. I may have gotten a bit overheated working in the yard in the sun yesterday.
    Day 54—09/10 – 146.6 - I was home from my second job late, but still had dinner and 2 cocktails. I haven't been eating a dinner at night on work nights, shows on the scale that I did even though calories in and out were pretty good. Off today, so I plan on having dinner again, I am just not sure what yet.
    Day 55—09/11 – 148.0 - Whoa! Hoping that this is just a blip. Calories were low. I have to get all made up this morning, early appointment for my driver's license renewal and photo. Those pictures stay with us for a long time lol.
    Day 56—09/12 –

    Week 8 Goal: Honestly, I would like to return to my 60tth birthday weight before my 64th birthday, 141.1 - but running out of time for that.
    Week 8 actual weight: Started the week at 146.0

    Started the 100 at 147.2

    @dawnbgethealthy They actually have BLT Bite, Lick, Taste listed in the MFP food choices for your diary lol. Someone at some point must have entered it. It wasn't me!

    Round #19---188.6
    Round #20---


    Thoughts at the beginning of this challenge:

    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, uphill, both ways. However, each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I CAN make, no matter how big or small. Sadly, I gained a little over 6 pounds last round. I hope to turn all that back around this round. After all, here in Northern Michigan I wait a very long time each year to finally get to good weather and more outside activity. I really want to capitalize on the good weather in the summer months and increase activity and drop pounds. I’m failing miserably with this so far in 2024. Time to maximize the rest of summer and early fall with challenge #20 and make the magic happen! I am so very 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.



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

    Day 55-09/11-DNW-(Trend weight DNW) I am definitely bloated from the trip and I can physically see the built up fluid in my legs/ankles and tummy area. Now that I’m home I will be able to take my prescribed water pill and rid myself of the excess. That will feel so much better. It will also help with my breathing. Hopefully I can weigh tomorrow for the end of the week tally. Mammogram and oncology went well. Cancer side is still clear. “Scare side” is showing that the new scattered calcifications are stable and so far appear benign. No more 6 month checks. I get to wait the full year this time so that is a good sign for sure! They did 3-D testing on me for the first time ever due to new regulations regarding dense tissue.

    Hi : - )
    I am Dawn.
    5'2"
    63 and will turn 64 during this 100
    Cranbrook, BC

    The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
    I have gained in each of the last 6 of them!
    I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.


    Week 1 Goal: 146.2 - Start weight of the previous 100
    Week 1 actual weight: 148.0 - Started the week at 147.2

    Week 2 Goal: 147s
    Week 2 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 148.2

    Week 3 Goal: 146s
    Week 3 actual weight: 147.8 - Started the week at 147.6

    Week 4 Goal: back to 147.2 and lower
    Week 4 actual weight: 146.4 -Started the week at 147.2

    Week 5 Goal: 145.6 - Start weight of the 2 ago 100 days challenge
    Week 5 actual weight: 146.6 - Started the week at 145.6

    Week 6 Goal: 145.6
    Week 6 actual weight: 145.2 - Started the week at 146.0

    Week 7 Goal: Didn't make a specific goal this week
    Week 7 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 145.6

    Halfway point Day 50 - 146.0

    Day 50—09/06 – 146.0 - I was at 130 on my 61st birthday. By now I should be at my healthy weight of 110-118 for a 5'2" person, the trajectory looked promising.

I am going to get out into the yard for most of the day because I don't get ready for work until 3pm. Work on that tan : - )
    Day 52—09/08— 146.6 - Went out in the garden and made myself some Nachos with a couple of cocktails last night after work. Not sure yet what I will eat today, but coffee is tasting great. I was offered a shift, but didn't take it at the LTC place. Sacrificing the extra $$ for well being. Lots and lots to do in the yard. I will be out there today with my bathing suit on getting a tan as I sweat. Fitness Marshall soon to grease me up so that I don't pull anything.
    Day 53—09/09— 146.4 - Running late today (couldn't get out of bed) I have to prep lunch and something to take for my long shift tonight, and of course put it all into my tracker. Apples will be my breakfast/continuous snack for my day job. I may have gotten a bit overheated working in the yard in the sun yesterday.
    Day 54—09/10 – 146.6 - I was home from my second job late, but still had dinner and 2 cocktails. I haven't been eating a dinner at night on work nights, shows on the scale that I did even though calories in and out were pretty good. Off today, so I plan on having dinner again, I am just not sure what yet.
    Day 55—09/11 – 148.0 - Whoa! Hoping that this is just a blip. Calories were low. I have to get all made up this morning, early appointment for my driver's license renewal and photo. Those pictures stay with us for a long time lol.
    Day 56—09/12 – 146.2 - So yeah, looks like yesterday was just a blip. Ended up working until 10:30, I was only scheduled until 8:00, so made a bit of extra $$s

    Week 8 Goal: Honestly, I would like to return to my 60tth birthday weight before my 64th birthday, 141.1 - but running out of time for that.
