100 day Challenge October 27.24 – February 03.25

About me and previous weeks under the spoiler!Hey new friends! 🎉 This is my very first 100-day challenge, just in time to conquer the holiday season and I’m excited! My goal is to lose 7 lbs by the end or roughly 0.5 lbs/week.
For me, it's all about healthy eating and getting my portions under control. I don’t have any strict workout plans 'cause I’ve learned that juggling too many goals just makes my brain melt 🧠💥. I try to stay active, but I’m totally a "go with the flow" kinda person—no step counting here.
About Me - Canadian, work full time remotely, been on MFP since 2010 so I’ve been trying to lose the same 10, 15, 20 lbs for almost 15 years! 🤣 HW 184.6 May ’24, I love puzzles, Netflix, puttering around the house and my cats!
Week 1 - Down 0 lb- Day 1 (10/27) 171.8 lb. Ran 10k, goal was 1800 cal. Garmin said I burned over 800 cal during my run but those are wildly inaccurate so I count that as 400 cal, then ate back about 200. Ended the day at 1850.
- Day 2 (10/28) 172.8 lb. I'm sure this gain is due to my big run yesterday and muscle soreness, I'm trying not to get bothered by fluctuations due to good things like exercise or strength training. Have a family birthday dinner tonight, have already looked at the menu and nutrition and pre-selected something. While I'd love to splurge, its not my own bday and I just don't think it's worth it today. I'll probably steal a fry or two off someone! 🍟
- Day 3 (10/29) 171.6 lb.🌮 I’m loving these daily reflections so far! Last night’s dinner out strategy: I pre-selected fish tacos and a small soup for about 800 calories, plus I had a protein snack before heading out (because prep is key, right?). Someone ordered appies for the table, and I did have a few, but I restrained myself. Ended up skipping the soup, and the fish tacos were awesome! I even ditched the tortilla on the second one. Still over my daily calories, but let’s be real—it feels unpossible to stick to a deficit when restaurant food is involved! This year, I've been working on changing my mindset around food, reminding myself that food is NOT entertainment. Last night was all about the family vibes—we laughed, shared stories, and celebrated a birthday. The people were the highlight, not the food!
- Day 4 (10/30) 171.6 lb. Hit the gym yesterday for a lower body strength session, feeling sore. Ate well, then bff called right before dinner to see if I wanted to go out to eat. We shared a main dish and appie. No idea on calories so prob another day not within deficit but I’m happy to have developed better restaurant habits so each visit isn’t a complete calorie blowout. Intentionally have not bought my halloween candy yet, will do that today to limit the damage! 🍫
- Day 5 (10/31) 172.0 lb. No willpower around Halloween candy, someone brought me a giant cookie I ate it, rode the bike for an hour, tomorrow will be a better day.🫡
- Day 6 (11/1) 171.8 lb. Hmm I’m back to Day 1 weight, I suppose that’s ok and it’s not an overall gain and I have to accept that with 2 restaurant meals, and Halloween candy. I’ll take it as a maintenance week. Time to buckle down again!
- Day 7 11/02 171.8 lb. First week in the bag! Yesterday rode bike on Zwift for an hour, today did ParkRun (edging closer to my 50 milestone! Ate well today.
Week 2 - Down 2.8 lb- Day 8 11/03 170.6 lb Oh, the scale drama…anyway! I’m reading The Hungry Brain, and it’s so interesting. Just learned about “delay discounting” — basically, how much we value future rewards vs. right-now ones. Like in that classic marshmallow experiment where kids could eat one marshmallow immediately or wait for two. The kids who waited? They tended to make healthier choices as adults (roughly speaking!).
Another study had adults picture a happy, successful future self to resist temptation. So next time you’re eyeing the Halloween candy bowl, maybe channel Future You with superhuman willpower—or just grab one and call it research! - Day 9 11/04 170.6 lb. Yahoo!🎉 Two days in the 170’s. Ran 13k yesterday, just felt like a nice long run. Ate back some calories but overall kept it around 2000. Ate well today.
- Day 10 11/05 169.8 lb. I haven’t seen the 160’s in two whole years! I had a good calorie day yesterday so tried to recreate all the same foods today. Got derailed because I left my peanut butter and jam toast on the coffee table and when I came back I had a suspicious feeling the cat licked it. Upon close examination I’m pretty sure I could see a strip of jam missing and the texture was different, exactly the width of a cat tongue. Compost. Anyways, as long as I don’t have a huge snack before bed I should be ok for today.
- Day 11 11/06 170.4 lb Lousy day at work, went for a run to accomplish something of value. Ordered a giant fish burrito for dinner, logged it as 1000 cal.
- Day 12 11/07 170.6 lb 10% thru this challenge! flu and covid vaccines today, I've had fever and chills with prior ones so planned this one over the long weekend.[/color]
- Day 13 11/08 170.8 lb down and out with vaccine side effects
- Day 14 11/09 169.0 lb wow where’d this number come from?? craving comfort junk food due to feeling sick, but good thing is that I don’t have any at home. 2 week loss is 2.8 but I don’t expect the 169 to stick around tomorrow, sometimes i think my scale is pretty glitchy!
Week 3 - Up 1.2 lb- Day 15 11/10 169.8 lb Sunday long run 12.5km, made a half recipe blueberry muffins with splenda
- Day 16 11/11 169.0 lb Remembrance Day today
- Day 17 11/12 170.2 lb Eating has been ok, I track daily but the accuracy of it has always stumped me as I cook a lot from scratch. i’ve often thought it would be easier from a tracking perspective to eat packaged foods, the barcode scanner in MFP is just so handy. went to the gym today for some lower body strength. anytime I want to eat or snack when bored i come to this discussion group and read the posts, this has been so helpful.
- Day 18 11/13 171.0 lb Hopefully just some water retention from sore muscles. Been eating well, did some easy biking 45 mins
- Day 19 11/14 170.8 lb 5k run with hill drills. Foodwise I’m doing terrible with protein, I wish I could consume premiere protein or other high protein milks but dairy gives me terrible cystic acne. i have pea protein powders but they are kinda ick.
- Day 20 11/15 171.0 lb Have really been on a rollercoaster with the scale this week. My eating has been more nibbly than before, there's quite a few things making it to my mouth but not the tracker! Going to focus on tracking well this weekend.
- Day 21 11/16 171.0 lb End of week 3 down 0.8 from Day 1, not really what I was hoping for. Well at least I’ve been consistent with logging in each day! I’m determined to make more progress.
- Day 22 11/17 171.2 lb
- Day 23 11/18 171.8 lb Not letting this get me down! Trust the process
- Day 24 11/19 171.2 lb

@DaffyGirl88 The TRX is what I initially found! But yeah, super expensive and not really a thing where I live. They didn't ship to the Netherlands either. So getting cheap knock offs was the only other option which I didn't want to do. I read some scary reviews about some of them. I didn't trust those things with my whole body weight. The gym rings feel a lot safer to me; the design isn't as complicated, the rings are pretty indestructible and the straps are designed to hold much much bigger weights than my 210 pound butt.4

@DaffyGirl88 joining in with your conversation with @Pupowl.Exercise bands are useful for at home or chair workouts.You can also put a loop in the end & put it on a door handle.My physio gave me some when I dislocated my shoulder.They are cheap & portable & build strength.3 -

I'm 36 years old, 5'3.SAHM to two beautiful toddlers, both with some special needs. Life is crazy, but I'm doing my best to make the most out of life for myself and my family.

Week 3 Goal: 149.8
Week 3 actual weight: 150.8
Day 22—11/17— 151.2. I'm also with pupowl on this, RUDE! I'm going in the opposite direction than I should be. But I have been a bit lax with my eating lately, plus bare minimum activity. I want to rest my hip a bit longer, but there's no excuse for the overeating!
Day 23—11/18—149.6. I'm very happy with this weight. I didn't have the healthiest food yesterday, but I still stayed under calorie goal. I just went for a 45 min walk with my boys in the wagon yesterday for exercise.
Day 24—11/19— 149.5. Food was good, only a 30 min walk for exercise.
Day 25—11/20— 148.8. I've been super motivated lately. Choosing the right food has been (mostly) pretty easy. My hip is starting to feel better. I'm cautiously optimistic I'll feel ready to start running again next week.

Previous and Future WeeksWeek 1
Day 01—10/27— 155.3. My weight is much higher today than it's been recently. It's the result of enjoying a few (too many) beers with friends and eating out yesterday. I'm sure a couple pounds will fall off in the next couple of days as I get back to making good choices.
Day 02—10/28— 154.9. I made much better choices yesterday. Hopefully my body will catch up soon, and I'll return to where I was before the weekend (152, roughly). I walked and ate within calories. I also did some meal planning and prep to prepare for the week.
Day 03—10/29— 153.7. Slowly coming back down. Lots of walking, some body weight exercises, and yoga. Eating was great, with no deviations from the plan. I just need to make this the norm.
Day 04—10/30—152.6. Another good day. My husband started nibbling on the Halloween candy, but I used all of my willpower to resist. More walking and yoga.
Day 05—10/31— 153.2. I've had a really good week so far, goal wise- much better than usual. Yesterday was a bad day for me emotionally. I think part of it had a legit reason, but that just spiraled into feeling all of the current stresses of life. However, I didn't turn to food and still did the exercise I had planned. So in that way, it was a win.
Day 06—11/01— 151.2. Happy to have a bit of a woosh. I've been doing good at resisting Halloween candy so far, but we still have some in the house. I'm going to try to be good. I didn't do well at meeting my exercise goals yesterday (steps, yoga), but my eating was good. I just have to maintain this loss until tomorrow to beat my week goal...
Day 07—11/02—151.6. It's close enough to my goal for the week that I am happy with it. I added in the exercise bike at the gym to my workout. Overall, I'm quite happy with how this week went. I'm proud of most of the decisions I made
Week 1 Goal: 151.5
Week 1 actual weight: 151.6
Day 08—11/03— 152.1 I had a few extra pieces of Halloween candy than I needed, but overall did pretty okay. I did most of my exercise (outdoor walking, treadmill and exercise bike) but didn't get around to yoga. I'm going to make a soup today for lunches this coming week. I also want to make healthyish zucchini muffins that my kids also like, but I'll see if I have time.
Day 09—11/04—151.7. Food quality wasn't great (husband had pizza waiting for me when I got home) but I fit it into my calories and ended the day just below target. I went swimming (first time swimming laps in a LONG time!). This weekend was a lot better than last week.
Day 10—11/05— 152.1. This number keeps popping up. It's time to push it down a bit. I was up all night with my kids, hopefully I'll be able to stick to my plan today.
Day 11—11/06—150.1. Woo-hoo!! I've been really diligent with my food and exercise recently, so it's nice to see it reflected on the scale. I really hope this isn't a fluke.
Day 12—11/07— 151.6. Yesterday was a rest day from the gym, and I treated myself to an alcoholic beverage. I'm not too surprised there was a little bounce up. The rest of the day was good. Food was good, and the rest of my activity was good (outside walk, yoga, body weight exercises).
Day 13—11/08— 150.8. Good day. Good food choices, a bit of intentional exercise. I'm happy some of my healthy choices are becoming more of a habit, and a bit less forced.
Day 14—11/09— 150.8. I'm happy with where I ended this week. I missed my goal, but still made good progress.
Week 2 Goal:150.5
Week 2 actual weight: 150.8
Day 15—11/10— 150.6. Bare minimum type of day. Went to the gym, but wasn't a remarkable workout. Ate within calories, but didn't focus on nutrition. It was good enough.
Day 16—11/11— 151.0. It was another lazy day. I did a couple of short walks, but that's all for exercise. Food was okay and within calories.
Day 17—11/12— 153.1. Constipation is my only guess. I took something for it last night, hopefully it'll do it's thing today and my weight will be better tomorrow.
Day 18—11/13— 150.0. So close to breaking into the 140's.
Day 19—11/14— 151.2. Not a bad day, but not a particularly good day, foodwise. I'm still not running because of my hip. I still go to the gym, but it's not the same intensity as running. I'm hoping next week I'll be able to run again.
Day 20—11/15— 149.9. Another bare minimum day.
Day 21—11/16— 150.8. I bounced around my week goal weight, but missed the mark. I'm purposely pulling back on the exercise, trying to let my hip heal completely. That may show up a little on the scale.

Week 4 actual weight:3 -
Hello, I'm Brian!!! 67 year, single, retired male living in rural, tiny town Canton, PA 'bout 45 minutes from the NYS border. Lived here for 4 years now, though originally from the Metro-NYC area. Diagnosed with MS in 2018, so now stuck using a rollator. (Thankful to the gods, that I've not been diagnosed with anything more serious so far.) Thrilled to have found MFP, its challenges, and supportive community.
Started on MFP on June 1st, 2024, weighing in at 286.2 lbs
Starting Weight - 10/26 - 229.8 lbsDay 01—10/27— 229.2 lbsDay 07—11/02— 228.8 lbs (Probably water weight gain, or having corn as my veggie, yesterday!)
Day 02—10/28— 229.4 lbs [Made a huge vat of hot and spicy cabbage soup yesterday which has been on simmer for at least 12 hours, then had two big bowls! How many of y'all did the "cabbage soup diet" craze of many years back???
Day 03—10/29— 229.2 lbs [Tuesdays are normally my 500-calorie "fast" day, but I dunno. We'll see what happens!]
Day 04—10/30— 229.0 lbs [I managed to lose .2 lbs even after eating 3 small croissants with pumpkin-butter? Just in case this was a fluke of the scale, TODAY is a total fast day, except for 0-calories beverages]
Day 05—10/31— 229.2 lbs (Well, it WAS a scale fluke, or Halloween prank! I did a total fast yesterday, drank lots of water, but the scale shows I'm UP .2 lbs! LOL)
Day 06—11/01— 228.6 lbs (Yeah! Goes to show you that you either have a 'flukey' scale, and/or that after a fast day your weight can go up/down/stay the same! LOL)
Week 1 Goal: Lose at least .2 to 2 lbs, or stay the same weight; no weight gain!
Week 1 actual weight: 228.8 lbs (Down 1 lb)
Day 08—11/03— 229.0 lbs (I think I'm seeing my first weight plateau since starting this health journey on June 1st, 2024.)
Day 09—11/04— 229.2 lbs
Day 10—11/05— DNW
Day 11—11/06— 228.4 lbs
Day 12—11/07— 228.4 lbs (Monday I made a bad choice of getting both my covid and shingles vaccines on the same day. By Monday evening I'd started having sore arms and blah feeling. Woke up early Tuesday with no strength in legs, sore arms, sweating, fever, headache/throbbing and felt like (near) death. Have only been able to drink juice and chicken soup, so far! [/b]
Day 13—11/08— 229.2 lbs
Day 14—11/09— 227.6 lbs
Week 2 Goal: Lose at least .2 to 2 lbs, or stay the same weight; no weight gain!
Week 2 actual weight: 227.6 lbs (Down 1.2 lbs)
Day 15—11/10— 228.4 lbs
Day 16—11/11— 227.2 lbs (Finally recovered from my two vaccinations and back to exercising!)
Day 17—11/12— 226.2 lbs (Got rid of a lot of water throughout the night. Yesterday, in addition to 2 hours peddling, I packed away Fall decorations, and pulling Christmas boxes out!)
Day 18—11/13— 224.6 lbs (I think my scale is acting wacky... I lost 1.6 lbs in 24 hours? <rolling eyes>. I mean, I did exercise for 2 hours yesterday and started putting up my Christmas decorations... and I basically ate just low-calorie cabbage soup.)
Day 19—11/14— 224.2 lbs (More eye rolling!!!)
Day 20—11/15— 223.8 lbs (Was moving around boxes yesterday, putting up Christmas decorations. Been turning my bedroom into more of work area for reading/study/writing/crafts. Being busy does help in losing weight... and you don't think about food, just hydration.)
Day 21—11/16— 224.4 lbs (Woke up at 4am, and didn't feel like sleeping anymore, so it's coffee, reading emails and an early morning weigh-in. Figured my (water) weight would be back up!)
Week 3 Goal: Lose at least .2 to 2 lbs, or stay the same weight; no weight gain!
Week 3 actual weight:224.4 (Down 3.2 lbs)
Day 22—11/17— 223.6 lbs
Day 23—11/18— 224.4 lbs (Water weight back, there was salt in yesterday's breaded chicken patties, and those pickles!)
Day 24—11/19— 226.2 lbs (Haven't eaten much of anything in the past 24 hours, but also haven't drunk any water or herbal tea, either. Feel bloated. Fortunately, Tuesday is my fast day!)
Day 25—11/20— 227.2 lbs (Fasted all yesterday... then ate 1/3 package of spice cookies with my tea in the evening. It was SO GOOD in my mouth, but then afterwards I felt SO GUILTY !!!. Back to just cabbage soup today and tomorrow to get back on track!!!)

Good Morning!
Day 22—11/17— 178 - Keeping my goal of 177 for this week. Gotta cut back on the salt...not good. MORE WATER!....I already started that today. Working around the apartment today....no sitting around.
Day 23—11/18— 178.2. - Another trip to the grocery store is the plan today. I will get in some steps there.
Day 24—11/19— 178 - Had a busy day, which is why this is a late entry. Got a good walk in and went to 2 grocery stores...I think I have enough food for a couple weeks! Supposed to rain and get colder after tomorrow. I'll try to get another walk in. But despite the scale not moving yet, I feel good!
Day 25—11/20— 176.6 - Nice to see the scale move a little. Working on more protein in my diet. Will have a nice salad for lunch with leftover chicken.

Previous Rounds Tally & Thoughts:
I am Sick and Tired of being Sick and Tired. I mean, I am LITERALLY both Sick with many ailments and Tired of putting myself through this back & forth! I weighed 181.6 on January 1st, 2024. This has not been a good year for me. How much progress I can make in November, December and January is very very questionable, at the very least. Those months are riddled with holidays, baking pies and cakes, making cookies and fudge. Lots of decadent dishes high in calories and carbs. And lots of shopping excursions away from home which always include restaurants and long car rides. So many celebrations including multiple family birthdays as well! These are the hardest months of the year for most of us. But I’m not throwing in the towel just yet!. I will do ALL I can, As I can, When I can. Life is going to happen and I will definitely live it, but there are lots of days where progress can still be made and/or damages can be mitigated. I must stay steadfast and strong in my resolve. This is about my health journey, not just my weight journey. I will not give up based on what month the calendar page is on!

Day 23-11/18-DNW-(Trend weight DNW)
Day 24-11/19-192.2-(Trend weight 191.6) Very early weigh-in about 3 hours earlier than usual. I hope that's part of this scale shock. I'm sure though that travel and weekend guests have caught up to me. I'm sure that's a big part of it. I've GOT TO have a good day today even though I am already starving. Choosing the right foods will be key today. Need nutrition and volume without added calories or carbs.
Day 25-11/20-192.6-(Trend weight 191.7) For the past couple of weeks I have been focusing on adding fiber to my diet for a number of reasons. As someone who finds most veggies horrid (part of my eating disorder) this task has been difficult. Right now I am using a high fiber low carb bread. 10g of carbs per slice and 10g of fiber per slice making it zero net carbs, 35 calories per slice and 20 grams total of fiber. I am hoping this will help fill me up better and offer me the health protections that fiber has to offer without pushing up the scale. I am also trying to hit my protein goals as best as I can. It will be hard to judge how much this is helping with so many distracted days in the mix. I need a good stretch of days that I either can’t find, or I sabotage when I do come across them. However, I am going to give this a chance for a few months and see how I feel about it. Yesterday should have been good, but it wasn’t. I was so proud of myself all day until the monsters came out last night. I’d had enough protein and fiber to choke a chicken and while it may have helped the hunger a bit, it didn’t put a dent in the cravings. If only I had answers for that!

@Pupowl
Well our friend from the Nederlands, you are almost down 10 pounds!!! Way to go!!
@deepwoodslady
Sorry to hear about your experience at the restaurant.
Sorry, but not sorry kind of. It feels like it was a little bit of a lightbulb moment for you. A bunch of wasted calories after all of your hard work.2 -
Hi : - )
I am Dawn.
5'2"
64 years old
Cranbrook, BC, Canada
The most that I have ever lost on one of these 100s is 7lbs.
I am not sure what it is going to take, but I would like to get back to 130 and below.
I started my weight loss journey because my doc threatened to put me on blood pressure medication for the rest of my life. I joined MFP at 198 pounds although I had been heavier than that.
I lost enough weight to chase away high blood pressure, but now the doc is saying that my arthritis in knees, feet, and ankles would benefit greatly by me dropping another 30 pounds. That number used to be 15 pounds, but I have been gaining and gaining these last couple of years.
I am an active person, and eat nutritious food.
Week 1 Goal: 145.6
Week 1 actual weight: 143.6- Started the week at 146.6
Week 2 Goal: 143.0
Week 2 actual weight: 144.8 - Started the week at 145.0
Week 3 Goal: 144.9
Week 3 actual weight:144.4 - Started the week at 147.8
Day 22—11/17— 146.0 - I barely got any activity in yesterday. Jump up in weight. Today will be different since I am off of work. Having a bit of a weird morning. I am a coffee girl, love the stuff, but I just wasn't feeling it this morning, so I have been having English Breakfast teas. I have been pecking away at cleaning stuff, normally I will do anything outside to avoid this lol. I have a carrot patch to harvest still, but I haven't any space in any of my freezers at this point. Now that I am back to having dinners after work I will be eating the pre-portioned containers of stuff that I have made and frozen throughout the work week, this will slowly make freezer space. Tonight though my plan is nachos. I will get a good dance workout in before ice skating so that I am stretched out with my joints lubricated in case I get tripped by little kids darting all over the place lol.
Day 23—11/18— 147.0 - Of course not happy with this jump up. Yes, I had nachos for dinner, but had zero otherwise to mitigate that. Maybe tomorrow it will drop after my output of ice skating, dance workouts and stuff kicks in. My homemade Jambalaya portion is out of the freezer for dinner tonight to be accompanied by a salad. Just one job today, so it should be a nice early dinner and then I am off tomorrow : - )
Day 24—11/19—
Day 25—11/20— 147.2 - Awesome day off yesterday. Went for a nice walk down to the place where the water freezes faster than the other lakes. Just to check it out in anticpation of skating on it soon. This morning we are getting a skiff of snow, which doesn't bode well for lakes freezing smoothly. It is not every year where we can skate the entire lakes, just have to skate where someone has shoveled, or skate behind a shovel lol.
Geese are leaving....
There are a couple of flowers on my porch still trying to hold on, but likely not for much longer..
My last carrot bed, last of all of the beds to be harvested and covered until April. Everything is finally put to bed for the season

No weightloss for 3 days now. Time to change up something. The last time I got rid of my snacks. Then I started losing. I guess I can replace a meal with protein shake/coffee.
Good news! I got my leg brace off. I'm doing physical therapy now. Still have to take it easy for a little while longer.

Week 3 Goal: 149.8
Week 3 actual weight: 150.8
Day 22—11/17— 151.2. I'm also with pupowl on this, RUDE! I'm going in the opposite direction than I should be. But I have been a bit lax with my eating lately, plus bare minimum activity. I want to rest my hip a bit longer, but there's no excuse for the overeating!
Day 23—11/18—149.6. I'm very happy with this weight. I didn't have the healthiest food yesterday, but I still stayed under calorie goal. I just went for a 45 min walk with my boys in the wagon yesterday for exercise.
Day 24—11/19— 149.5. Food was good, only a 30 min walk for exercise.
Day 25—11/20— 148.8. I've been super motivated lately. Choosing the right food has been (mostly) pretty easy. My hip is starting to feel better. I'm cautiously optimistic I'll feel ready to start running again next week.
Day 26—11/21— 149.4. Happy to be consistently under 150 for the last few days.

Week 4 actual weight:
Previous and Future WeeksWeek 1
Day 01—10/27— 155.3. My weight is much higher today than it's been recently. It's the result of enjoying a few (too many) beers with friends and eating out yesterday. I'm sure a couple pounds will fall off in the next couple of days as I get back to making good choices.
Day 02—10/28— 154.9. I made much better choices yesterday. Hopefully my body will catch up soon, and I'll return to where I was before the weekend (152, roughly). I walked and ate within calories. I also did some meal planning and prep to prepare for the week.
Day 03—10/29— 153.7. Slowly coming back down. Lots of walking, some body weight exercises, and yoga. Eating was great, with no deviations from the plan. I just need to make this the norm.
Day 04—10/30—152.6. Another good day. My husband started nibbling on the Halloween candy, but I used all of my willpower to resist. More walking and yoga.
Day 05—10/31— 153.2. I've had a really good week so far, goal wise- much better than usual. Yesterday was a bad day for me emotionally. I think part of it had a legit reason, but that just spiraled into feeling all of the current stresses of life. However, I didn't turn to food and still did the exercise I had planned. So in that way, it was a win.
Day 06—11/01— 151.2. Happy to have a bit of a woosh. I've been doing good at resisting Halloween candy so far, but we still have some in the house. I'm going to try to be good. I didn't do well at meeting my exercise goals yesterday (steps, yoga), but my eating was good. I just have to maintain this loss until tomorrow to beat my week goal...
Day 07—11/02—151.6. It's close enough to my goal for the week that I am happy with it. I added in the exercise bike at the gym to my workout. Overall, I'm quite happy with how this week went. I'm proud of most of the decisions I made
Week 1 Goal: 151.5
Week 1 actual weight: 151.6
Day 08—11/03— 152.1 I had a few extra pieces of Halloween candy than I needed, but overall did pretty okay. I did most of my exercise (outdoor walking, treadmill and exercise bike) but didn't get around to yoga. I'm going to make a soup today for lunches this coming week. I also want to make healthyish zucchini muffins that my kids also like, but I'll see if I have time.
Day 09—11/04—151.7. Food quality wasn't great (husband had pizza waiting for me when I got home) but I fit it into my calories and ended the day just below target. I went swimming (first time swimming laps in a LONG time!). This weekend was a lot better than last week.
Day 10—11/05— 152.1. This number keeps popping up. It's time to push it down a bit. I was up all night with my kids, hopefully I'll be able to stick to my plan today.
Day 11—11/06—150.1. Woo-hoo!! I've been really diligent with my food and exercise recently, so it's nice to see it reflected on the scale. I really hope this isn't a fluke.
Day 12—11/07— 151.6. Yesterday was a rest day from the gym, and I treated myself to an alcoholic beverage. I'm not too surprised there was a little bounce up. The rest of the day was good. Food was good, and the rest of my activity was good (outside walk, yoga, body weight exercises).
Day 13—11/08— 150.8. Good day. Good food choices, a bit of intentional exercise. I'm happy some of my healthy choices are becoming more of a habit, and a bit less forced.
Day 14—11/09— 150.8. I'm happy with where I ended this week. I missed my goal, but still made good progress.
Week 2 Goal:150.5
Week 2 actual weight: 150.8
Day 15—11/10— 150.6. Bare minimum type of day. Went to the gym, but wasn't a remarkable workout. Ate within calories, but didn't focus on nutrition. It was good enough.
Day 16—11/11— 151.0. It was another lazy day. I did a couple of short walks, but that's all for exercise. Food was okay and within calories.
Day 17—11/12— 153.1. Constipation is my only guess. I took something for it last night, hopefully it'll do it's thing today and my weight will be better tomorrow.
Day 18—11/13— 150.0. So close to breaking into the 140's.
Day 19—11/14— 151.2. Not a bad day, but not a particularly good day, foodwise. I'm still not running because of my hip. I still go to the gym, but it's not the same intensity as running. I'm hoping next week I'll be able to run again.
Day 20—11/15— 149.9. Another bare minimum day.
Day 21—11/16— 150.8. I bounced around my week goal weight, but missed the mark. I'm purposely pulling back on the exercise, trying to let my hip heal completely. That may show up a little on the scale.

Accidentally melted my aeropress in the dishwasher. Got an OXO pour over to replace it. Sooo much easier than manhandling that aeropress pump!
Started an arthritis med a couple days ago to help with inflammation, which in turn is supposed to reduce joint swelling. Felt it kick in, in the middle of a challenging yoga class yesterday to the point I went from “Can I even finish the class?” to “Oh, yeah, give me more!!!”
Can also feel the fatigue lifting a little. Hurray!!!!!
Eye doc checked me for floaters and flashes yesterday and told me (very) slight chance of retina detaching, and not to do bouncy stuff like jogging, and no headstands til my follow up visit.
Man, I tell ya, if your Travelers Tummy morphs into this mess, it’s no play joke. Literally messing with me from eyeballs to bottoms of feet. I feel like such a whiner. It’s just stupidly minor stuff, but a dogpile of them.5 -
WOOT WOOT!! So protein shake/coffee it is then! If the numbers are not moving in your favor, than make some changes. That is what I had to do. First got rid of my two snacks a day. The numbers started to drop. Then for three days nothing. So I am now doing either my protein coffee in the morning or a protein shake for lunch. It worked!

10/18-10/26: DNW - Vacation Northeast coast & Canada
10/27: 222.9 - Up 5.4 lbs in one week of vacation indulgence. I really hope that some of this is water retention from travel and will shed quickly in the next 2 days. The trip with my sister was great but I drank cocktails that had way more calories than my normal glass of wine. Think that was probably my biggest mistake. Starting this round in the RED!
🎂 Not the way I wanted to kick off my birthday … 64 years. Will I get to Onederland before I’m 65??? Bike 30 min
10/28: 220.1 / 221.8 - Not under 220 but I’ll take it. Today taking care of my granddaughter since she has fever and can’t go to daycare. My daughter is flying to North Carolina for work and her husband has 4 meetings at work today so they need Nana’s help with the little one. The other is going to daycare.

Actual Weight: 220.1

Challenge Weight Loss: 0
🎯 Still in the red so I’m going to work this coming week to get back down to pre vacation weight.
10/29: 218.8 / 221.1 - Gradually shedding the travel water retention and vacation weight gain. Wondering if this is my real weight which would mean I gained a real pound on this trip ... much like all my other 4 vacations in the past 2 years. Now will be the real challenge to get rid of this pound!
10/30: 217.9 / 220.1 - My knees are bothering me again after all the walking on vacation. Today I’m going to focus on the bike exercise and go back to my PT exercises to help stretch out and strengthen the muscles around the knees.
10/31: 216.5 / 219.0 - 🎃 Yeah! A new low and my trend is under 220. All the grandkids are getting together at my daughter’s home for chili and to trick-o-treat together tonight. I’m looking forward to it! This year we have Elsa and Ana from Frozen and a beautiful pink princess.
11/1: 217.7 / 218.4 - Indulged a little too much plus didn’t get on the bike but did walk with the grandkids trick-or-treating.
11/2: 216.8 / 217.8 - Great lunch out yesterday with an old friend. I chose a fun harvest salad with grilled chicken, spring mix lettuce, pumpkin seeds, roasted beets & butternut squash, goat cheese, quinoa with Fig Balsamic dressing. It was yummy! Never tried these veggies before roasted and never liked beets before but this I loved! Only ate half and stopped when I was full.
Today the families are going to the zoo. Lots of chasing grandkids in my future morning adventures.
11/3: 218.7 / 217.9 - Too much yesterday! Daughter brought both Kolaches and donuts which I had 1 of each. Then DIL brought key lime cup cakes she made for my birthday celebration which were yummy and I had 1 after a salad lunch and another after pasta dinner. The results of the indulgence showed up on the scale this morning.

Gain / Loss this week: 1.8
Challenge Weight Loss: .8
🎯 Lost most of the vacation gain but I’m still in the red for this challenge as I’ve not gotten back to my starting 217.5 pre-vacation reading. Lots of things I could have and should have done this week … bike, not eat so many cupcakes, etc.
11/5: 215.8 / 217.2 - I had a “spell” last night where my heart raced for over an hour (180 bpm). Drank water, lied down, breathing … tried everything I knew to get it to slow down. I have vascular syncope and almost blacked out at dinner when it kicked in. Of course this had to be the time when my DIL and granddaughter were staying over and my sister was here for dinner. Better this morning. Wondering if I burned off the calories LOL
11/6: 218.3 / 217.4 - Taking it easy today … bike 30, min walk 1 mil, paint, plan for potential move since remodeling as much as we want is out of the question cost wise.
11/7: 217.2 / 217.2 - Up at 3am … WHY!?!?
11/8: 217 / 217.1 - Biked 20 min
11/9: 217 / 217.0 - Biked 20 min, weed & mulch front bed, played with grandkids

Good Morning!
@Lilylady3k - I have had times like that....I slip. But you will get up like I did. Hang in there!
@alleykat69 - glad you found what works for you! Great job!
@Zaxa2021 - breaking that plain and getting under is a great feeling, isn't it? Good luck reaching that next plain!
Day 22—11/17— 178 - Keeping my goal of 177 for this week. Gotta cut back on the salt...not good. MORE WATER!....I already started that today. Working around the apartment today....no sitting around.
Day 23—11/18— 178.2. - Another trip to the grocery store is the plan today. I will get in some steps there.
Day 24—11/19— 178 - Had a busy day, which is why this is a late entry. Got a good walk in and went to 2 grocery stores...I think I have enough food for a couple weeks! Supposed to rain and get colder after tomorrow. I'll try to get another walk in. But despite the scale not moving yet, I feel good!
Day 25—11/20— 176.6 - Nice to see the scale move a little. Working on more protein in my diet. Will have a nice salad for lunch with leftover chicken.
