Late to the challenge, but I am here. I lost 65 pounds. Then I slowly put back on 15. This is my effort to stop the gain and get back into the game. Onward and downward.

Some days, you just gotta wag your finger at the scale and yell “You’re not the boss of me!!!”
For those of us frustrated, just trust the process and be patient. I have worked out consistently and been below my goal every day since I joined this challenge, with the exception of Thanksgiving and a Milka Bar Challenge (ie, can I eat this 300gr bar by myself? Yep. I still got it.) Even during those weeks I still had a 7-day average well below goal, so those two days were a blip.
It’ll happen. You’ve just got to hang in there.
Hugs to all Try’ers trying out there suffering from the “Will It Ever?”s.3 -

Halfway Progress Report:
Pounds Lost so Far: 7.6. Averages out to be just over a pound a week, which I'm happy with.
Day 51—12/16— 150.4. My food choices were horrible this weekend so this is not much of a surprise. I'm back at it today though.

Week 8 actual weight:
Previous and Future WeeksPrevious days' notes were lost when I got a new phone and my notes didn't get carried over. Copying and pasting from an old post proved to be too troublesome, especially for something that no one really needs or wants to re-read.
Day 36—12/01— 148.7. I was expecting my weight to be up from my sick weight yesterday, but wasn't expecting this much. I ate yesterday, but still well under my calories as I wasn't feeling great. Oh well.
Day 37—12/02— 149.1
Day 38—12/03— 148.3. I'm happy it came down a little.
Day 39—12/04— 147.9.
Day 40—12/05— 146.7. Woo-hoo! I'm super excited for this new low. Hopefully it'll stick for the end of the week goal
Day 41—12/06— 147.0. I feel like I'm in the zone right now. I'm motivated, my healthy habits are taking hold and becoming routine, and I just feel like I'm doing things "right". I know this feeling won't last forever, but I'm going to try to hold on to it for a few more pounds at least.
Day 42—12/07— 146.4. My boys are spending the weekend with Gramma, so I'll have some more time to myself today. Have some errands, chores and things to do, but hoping to also have some down time for Me Time and maybe a little extra at the gym.
Week 6 Goal: 147.0
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4
Day 43—12/08— 145.5. Hmmm... I'm dropping weight a bit too fast. Almost 2 pounds in 2 days? A bit of a woosh may have been building up, but I also think I'm a bit dehydrated. I haven't been focusing on water the last few days. So I'm going to try drinking more today, and see if my weight evens out a bit.
Day 44—12/09— 147.2. I drank more water yesterday, putting me around where I think I should be. I gotta stay hydrated.
Day 45—12/10—147.7. Took the day off from the gym, but went for a walk. Calories were just a smidge higher than I would like them to be. Going to pre-track my food today.
Day 46—12/11— 147.7. Anxiety was pretty bad. Exercise was pretty scarce yesterday. Eating was okay.
Day 47—12/12— 148.0. I was really tired yesterday so took it easy, again. Food wasn't the best. I'm going to do better today.
Day 48—12/13— 146.4.
Day 49—12/14— 148.0. My weight was everywhere this week. I'm just going to take this week's gain with a grain of salt.

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 5 Goal: 146.6
Week 5 actual weight: 147.2 - Started the week at 146.8
Week 6 Goal: 144.8 - a bit ambitious but maybe do-able since I shouldn't be exhausted all week and eating dinners at 1am
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4 - Started the week at 146.8
Week 7 Goal: Anything under 145.0 until I hit it.
Week 7 actual weight: 147.4 - Started the week at 146.6
Day 50—12/15— 149.0 - Uh-oh! I guess all that party food just took a couple of days to show up on the scale. I had company yesterday, Mulled wine and snacks, then after they left, more of the leftovers from the party. Eek.
Halfway Progress Report: …..Gained almost 3 pounds, I guess 2.4
Day 51—12/16— 147.4 - Starting a new work schedule at my day job today, 3 longer days per week for the next 2 months. I will take extra food with me (rice cakes and nut butter, apples, oranges, cheerios with almond milk) because of the longer than usual shifts. Yes, it is a restaurant lol, but I don't really eat restaurant food anymore or I would quickly be back up to 200.

@Crochetluvr We have a new law in Michigan that all eggs must be cage free that begins Jan 1st but most stores have already converted. I checked my local grocery store in this very rural area and the plain white store brand eggs are now $7.00 per dozen for size Large. What????? Hopefully when I travel I will find that big box stores will carry them cheaper. I need lots of eggs for my baking!3 -

Beginning of Round 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 50-12/15-191.4-(Trend weight 193.1) Yay! The whoosh yesterday was real. Checked and double-checked. T-Minus 2.2 lbs. 2.8 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs in no set time frame. I’m in a wrapping frenzy and hope to get a lot more done today. A new contractor is coming in the morning for some tile work. A female which is unusual around this very small town. She will work in conjunction with my current contractor who doesn’t have a tile guy at the moment. I anticipate jealousy by my 1st contractor as she will be working around and behind his work (plumbing, drywall etc.). He has a lot of pride but is not as picky as she is. Pride goeth before a fall. I hope he will mind his manners!
Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 0.2 lbs Lost Time to kick it into high gear and do as much As I Can, When I Can, Where I Can, even through December!
Day 51-12/16-190.8-(Trend weight 192.8) Wow what a busy week this is going to be. New female contractor here today which upset the old contractor so he won’t come until she’s done with the tile work in the bathroom! Insecure baby! Tuesday is the Christmas concert for the DGS I babysit which is local. Wed is general diabetes doctor appt for son & I just one town over so that won’t be more than a couple of hours. We have completely different clocks here in these small rural towns and the hands move much slower than regular clocks lol. Friday is an 8 hour round trip down to Ann Arbor Michigan for my oldest daughter’s Mammogram. We’ll be leaving at about 6 am. Saturday is DGS #3’s birthday. He is the one that is autistic like my son, and very hard to buy for but I happen to have a little experience in that department. In-between, the new contractor “Rachel” will come as often as I can let her. I continue to wrap presents everyday trying to catch up. I also am wrapping all the new stuff as UPS or FedEx arrives. I was happy with the scale today. A little more progress. I ate a little less than I’d planned as I started gagging on my dinner. It was food within plan that I love but sometimes that happens with me for an unknown reason. I’ve always considered it part of my eating disorders. I ended up eating something else later that felt “safe” and didn’t find I needed any snacks after that. T-Minus 2.8 lbs. 2.2 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs loss within no particular time frame.

@deepwoodslady, I am lucky. My egg lady charges me $4 a dozen for her eggs....and they are beautiful eggs. All different colors. Sometimes I hate to break them. $7 is outrageous!2 -

Day 50—12/15—147.9 . I had a few drinks last night. I'm surprised my weight isn't up more.
Halfway Progress Report:
Pounds Lost so Far: 7.6. Averages out to be just over a pound a week, which I'm happy with.
Day 51—12/16— 150.4. I ate horribly yesterday so this is not much of a surprise. I'm back at it today though.
Day 52—12/17— 150.8. Well this isn't good. I'll do better today than what I've been doing the last few days.

Week 8 actual weight:
Previous and Future WeeksPrevious days' notes were lost when I got a new phone and my notes didn't get carried over. Copying and pasting from an old post proved to be too troublesome, especially for something that no one really needs or wants to re-read.
Day 36—12/01— 148.7. I was expecting my weight to be up from my sick weight yesterday, but wasn't expecting this much. I ate yesterday, but still well under my calories as I wasn't feeling great. Oh well.
Day 37—12/02— 149.1
Day 38—12/03— 148.3. I'm happy it came down a little.
Day 39—12/04— 147.9.
Day 40—12/05— 146.7. Woo-hoo! I'm super excited for this new low. Hopefully it'll stick for the end of the week goal
Day 41—12/06— 147.0. I feel like I'm in the zone right now. I'm motivated, my healthy habits are taking hold and becoming routine, and I just feel like I'm doing things "right". I know this feeling won't last forever, but I'm going to try to hold on to it for a few more pounds at least.
Day 42—12/07— 146.4. My boys are spending the weekend with Gramma, so I'll have some more time to myself today. Have some errands, chores and things to do, but hoping to also have some down time for Me Time and maybe a little extra at the gym.
Week 6 Goal: 147.0
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4
Day 43—12/08— 145.5. Hmmm... I'm dropping weight a bit too fast. Almost 2 pounds in 2 days? A bit of a woosh may have been building up, but I also think I'm a bit dehydrated. I haven't been focusing on water the last few days. So I'm going to try drinking more today, and see if my weight evens out a bit.
Day 44—12/09— 147.2. I drank more water yesterday, putting me around where I think I should be. I gotta stay hydrated.
Day 45—12/10—147.7. Took the day off from the gym, but went for a walk. Calories were just a smidge higher than I would like them to be. Going to pre-track my food today.
Day 46—12/11— 147.7. Anxiety was pretty bad. Exercise was pretty scarce yesterday. Eating was okay.
Day 47—12/12— 148.0. I was really tired yesterday so took it easy, again. Food wasn't the best. I'm going to do better today.
Day 48—12/13— 146.4.
Day 49—12/14— 148.0. My weight was everywhere this week. I'm just going to take this week's gain with a grain of salt.

10/17: 217.5 - Ending weight last round on 10/17/2024 before vacation.
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.

🎯 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.

🎯 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
11/10: 215.6 / 216.5 - Saw 215 during last round before vacation but didn’t hold on to it. Wondering if I’ll be able to this week. Biked 20 min
11/11: 215.5 / 216.1 - Took a 1.5 hr nap both Sat and Sun … I guess my body really needed sleep this weekend.

11/22: 215.4
11/23: 214.9
11/24: 214.8 / 214.9 - Finally got the moving average as well as the scale below 215. Can I hope that it goes below 210 before the end to he year with all the holiday celebrations I have ahead of me over the next 5 weeks? I’ve not been on the bike in a while … Think I’ll ad that to my must do today list. Bike 20 min.
11/25: 214.3 / 214.7 - Today’s focus … Bike plus PLANNING health insurance, flights for vacation next year and begin decorating for the holidays since we don’t have anyone here for Thanksgiving.

🎯 Minor progress. Seems like I’ve been at 215 forever but in reality that vacation at the end of October pushed me up to almost 223 temporarily. I’m glad to feel like I’m making a little progress again even if it is very very slow.
11/26: 214.1 / 214.4 - Hit yesterday with a terrible cold that makes me feel awful.
11/27: 213.6 / 214.0 - Slept most of yesterday … wasted day but I think the fever broke last night.
11/28: 213.4 / 213.7 - Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 Just DH & I today. Tomorrow we join our son & wife in Austin for Thanksgiving meal with our DIL’s parents, one of her brothers and some of their friends.
11/29: 214.3 / 213.9
11/30: 214.5 / 213.9 - 6 hrs in the car and Thanksgiving feast on Friday shows on the scale. Not unexpected.

Foot, ankle hands and wrists swollen. My foot has put its own self down and told me “get off me! Give me a break!” So today will be pool and as few steps as possible, although dog falls entirely on me as husband begins colonoscopy prep this morning. 😱
@deepwoodslady My daughter apprenticed and qualified as an electrician in Europe, after deciding to live there permanently- and deciding that she utterly hated her desk job.
The stories she tells me. Yikes. There seems to be even fewer females in construction in (especially small-town) Europe than here.
Tell Rachel, it sucks everywhere. Especially if you’re cute and have a nice figure. Mine is a tiger and won’t take *kitten* off them, though. She’s working hard to establish a reputation as knowledgeable and reliable electrician, period, not as “that girl electrician”.
Give her a giant hug and “You go, Girl!” from the both of us.

Beginning of Round 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 51-12/16-190.8-(Trend weight 192.8) Wow what a busy week this is going to be. New female contractor here today which upset the old contractor so he won’t come until she’s done with the tile work in the bathroom! Insecure baby! Tuesday is the Christmas concert for the DGS I babysit which is local. Wed is general diabetes doctor appt for son & I just one town over so that won’t be more than a couple of hours. We have completely different clocks here in these small rural towns and the hands move much slower than regular clocks lol. Friday is an 8 hour round trip down to Ann Arbor Michigan for my oldest daughter’s Mammogram. We’ll be leaving at about 6 am. Saturday is DGS #3’s birthday. He is the one that is autistic like my son, and very hard to buy for but I happen to have a little experience in that department. In-between, the new contractor “Rachel” will come as often as I can let her. I continue to wrap presents everyday trying to catch up. I also am wrapping all the new stuff as UPS or FedEx arrives. I was happy with the scale today. A little more progress. I ate a little less than I’d planned as I started gagging on my dinner. It was food within plan that I love but sometimes that happens with me for an unknown reason. I’ve always considered it part of my eating disorders. I ended up eating something else later that felt “safe” and didn’t find I needed any snacks after that. T-Minus 2.8 lbs. 2.2 lbs to go on my mini goal of 5 lbs loss within no particular time frame.
Day 52-12/17-190.0-(Trend weight 192.6) I weighed in my normal spot and the weight was much lower than I trusted so I moved the scale over a bit and it was a little higher. With it differing the 1st spot I just didn’t trust it. I finally shook the lazies and went downstairs to the basement, on the cement, where I do feel the floor is more level and stable. I got the highest number of the three twice. It's not a direct comparison from yesterday but one that seems accurate so this is the one I’m posting today. I’ve put my scale on the charger even though it wasn’t dead yet. We’ll see what happens tomorrow in my normal (and usually reliable) spot. Otherwise, I’ll be starting each day with a flight of stairs which probably isn’t a bad idea anyway! Christmas concert tonight at the school. Doctor appointment tomorrow for diabetes check and general care at my PCP's. I’m not sure if my weight is up or down since my last appointment. I’ll have to research. T-Minus 3.6 lbs today. 1.4 lbs to go on my micro-mini goal.

@dawnbgethealthy I really enjoyed looking over the menu. Such wonderful dishes. My how I am CRAVING red curry with chicken right now with nowhere in northern Michigan to get it. The one restaurant that served it moved to another state about 2 years back. It was only about an hour away. Sure do miss it! How you can work there and not be eating and rotating your meals is beyond me! I'm not that strong. Wishing you much success in this new job. It is good to hear that you will have a couple of days for yourself. Hopefully the tips will pour in for you, especially this time of year!
@Lilylady3k I, too, have been waking up stiff and even having some back pain these past few weeks. I never tied it to the fact that I haven't been on my bike for probably about two months, nor kept up with any walking or general exercise. I guess it's time for me to get off my bum and get moving. With all the holiday activities like shopping, bent over wrapping, etc it seems like I'm doing enough but obviously I am not. I can't replace regular exercise with general activity. Time for us to hop on and ride I guess!1 -
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
Week 4 Goal: Didn't put one
Week 4 actual weight: 146.2 - Started the week at 146.0
Week 5 Goal: 146.6
Week 5 actual weight: 147.2 - Started the week at 146.8
Week 6 Goal: 144.8 - a bit ambitious but maybe do-able since I shouldn't be exhausted all week and eating dinners at 1am
Week 6 actual weight: 146.4 - Started the week at 146.8
Week 7 Goal: Anything under 145.0 until I hit it.
Week 7 actual weight: 147.4 - Started the week at 146.6
Day 50—12/15— 149.0 - Uh-oh! I guess all that party food just took a couple of days to show up on the scale. I had company yesterday, Mulled wine and snacks, then after they left, more of the leftovers from the party. Eek.
Halfway Progress Report: …..Gained almost 3 pounds, I guess 2.4
Day 51—12/16— 147.4 - Starting a new work schedule at my day job today, 3 longer days per week for the next 2 months. I will take extra food with me (rice cakes and nut butter, apples, oranges, cheerios with almond milk) because of the longer than usual shifts. Yes, it is a restaurant lol, but I don't really eat restaurant food anymore or I would quickly be back up to 200.
Day 52—12/17— 148.2 - No idea why the jump up in weight. Very busy day at work, only time for lots of lemon water, one orange and my cheerios during 8 hours, ate a bit when I got home exhausted, but not much. I was already into my jammies when had some homemade Adobo chicken from one of the Filipino girls at work, possibly loaded with salt? Hopefully the weight gain is just a blip.

Chris2 -
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.
Week 4 - Down 0.8 lb from Day 1- 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
- Day 25 11/20 171.8 lb
- Day 26 11/21 170.8 lb Food tracking going well, keeping the exercise up too. Scale doesn’t reflect it but feeling good and clothes fitting better
- Day 27 11/22 170.6 lb
- Day 28 11/23 171.0 lb Was feeling blah yesterday after a long day at work, just wanted to curl up on the couch and netflix. was scrolling this group and saw someone post how they rode their stationary bike. that instantly motivated me to hop on mine for a 45 min ride. that’s what i love about this challenge! i hope someone sees this today and decides to make a better food choice or get some movement.
Week 5 - Up 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 29 11/24 173.4 lb Staying positive despite the scale, went out for dinner last night, had wine and split a dessert 3 ways. Brought half my entree home for lunch today. Did ParkRun yesterday and got my fastest time this year! I was still beaten by someone “power walking” and looked 20 years beyond my age LOL! Its a grey and rainy day here, going to finish my coffee and head to the gym for some strength.
- Day 30 11/25 173.2 lb Super sore from the gym, I’m telling myself I’m gaining muscle 💪
- Day 31 11/26 172.2 lb Busy week, not much time for exercise so trying to focus on healthy eating. I’ve also stopped drinking diet soda, not sure why because I love it but I think it was making me snacky and hungry. Switched to flavoured bubble water which is growing on me, esp the pineapple coconut flavour!
- Day 32 11/27 171.0 lb
- Day 33 11/28 170.6 lb
- Day 34 11/29 171.4 lb
- Day 35 11/30 174.0 lb
Week 6 - Down 2.2 lb from Day 1- Day 36 12/01 171.0 lb Gosh it’s been a busy several days and I have not had a moment to myself. I’ve been weighing each morning but haven’t had the time to update my posts. Well I’m a third of the way through this challenge and nowhere near where I thought I'd be. I’m not getting down about it and will just look back on the last few weeks as a learning experience. I’ve done a quite a bit of exercise, and this just reinforces what I already knew which is that exercise has no effect on weight loss (for me). Other benefits yes - but does not change the scale one bit. So, more focus on calorie deficit is needed! I ran 5k yesterday and 8k today, and tracked all my food so far. Going to have an apple as my after dinner snack. Congrats to everyone who is crushing it!
- Day 37 12/02 170.8 lb
- Day 38 12/03 170.0 lb
- Day 39 12/04 169.2 lb
- Day 40 12/05 170.6 lb In my mind I only missed posting a day or two, but obvs much longer than that. Work has been busy, trying to cram everything in before holidays…who says Dec is a slow month. Was ecstatic to see my weight drop into the 160’s again, albeit not for long. Its all good tho, still continuing to track my food. I really need to eat some protein, been snacking on too many carbs.
- Day 41 12/06 169.6 lb Yay another day in the 160’s!
- Day 42 12/07 169.6 lb
Week 7 - Down 2.8 lb from Day 1- Day 43 12/08 169.0 lb
- Day 44 12/09 170.0 lb
- Day 45 12/10 169.4 lb
- Day 46 12/11 DNW
- Day 47 12/12 169.0 lb Work is very stressful, and I constantly feel like I’m fighting a cold with a sore throat that comes and goes. Managed to get out for a run yesterday but otherwise have barely been going to the gym or stationary biking. I don’t beat myself up about it too much as long as I have my food under control. Sometimes by dinner I’m down to very few calories left but i try to reflect on where i went astray during the day and try to do better the next day.
- Day 48 12/13 168.2 lb Wow where did this come from!
- Day 49 12/14 169.0 lb Yep didn’t last long
- Day 50 12/15 169.2 lb Ran a total of 20km this week over 3 sessions, plus one stationary bike workout. Happy with my activity level. I have a gingerbread house kit that I put together on Friday. Ate a few of the candies plus one of the christmas tree cutouts hee hee! All in all I’ve been pretty good with treats the last few weeks.
- Day 51 12/16 169.4 lb I think I got like 38 grams of protein today, I don’t know why it’s so hard for me.
- Day 52 12/17 170.0 lb Haven’t had dinner yet and I’m only at 48 grams of protein. If anyone has tips to eat more protein (and don’t involve cottage cheese barf), I’m all ears.
