@Lilylady3k I find it pastes without the extra spaces if I use "Paste as plain text". I use mobile, so for me it's a long press in the type box, and then I get the option. I haven't used an actual computer in a long time, but maybe if you right click you may get that option if using computer?

I'll try it thanks!

My strategy:
- exercise minimum of 5 days per week
- walk every day
- log my water — I drink it, I just don’t log it, so I need to better understand how much I’m actually drinking
- be at a weekly average caloric deficit of at least 3500. Tracking this with goal of 500 caloric deficit each day. Rounding calories out down to the next 100 and calories in up to the next 100 —> this is to account for inaccuracies on both and to achieve a conservative result.

I did some playing around with the new Paragraph icon and all its submenus. These work the same on the computer and on my phone. The only difference is click versus tap.
click the paragraph symbol to reveal the menu
four options are presented
H2 reveals the Heading submenu
The three dots and lines reveals the list options - bullets or numbers, it also includes indent and outdent, but these two options are greyed out and I couldn't figure out how to un-grey them
The quotation marks reveals the quote, code block and spoiler options
Sample headings
Heading 2
Heading 3
Heading 4
Heading 5
Sample bulleted list
- item in bulleted list
- second item in bulleted list
- third item in bulleted list
Sample ordered list
- item in numbered list
- second item in numbered list
- third item in list numbered
Sample quote using the menus. I'm not sure about this one. I went to a previous post, copied a section, then returned to the Comment box and pasted, then highlighted what I pasted and used the paragraph menu to select the quote icon. I then added the @ with the user name. I tried it and it works the other way around too (i.e., click the quote icon on the menu, then copy and paste into it). Even if the formatting on the paste was retained, it is lost once the quote icon is clicked.
My strategy:
exercise minimum of 5 days per week
walk every day
log my water — I drink it, I just don’t log it, so I need to better understand how much I’m actually drinking
Sample code block
not sure what code block is. After I clicked it it formed a grey box around the text and made the text smaller. It also removed the auto-scrolling. I'm not sure what this would be useful for.
Sample Spoiler
Everything typed in the grey spoiler box is collapsed once the comment is posted.
I think that's it from the paragraph submenus.

I also played around with other formatting options available when you highlight text. These all seem pretty standard except for the inline.
B is bold - Ctrl+B also works
I is italics - Ctrl+I also works
S is Strikethrough{..} changes the text to 'inline'.
I'm not sure what this would be useful for. It seems similar to the code block in the paragraph menu.
The link icon is for adding a hyperlink over text rather than just having the whole URL pasted.
1 -
One more playing around. The four icons in the bottom left hand corner of the Comments box.
Emojis 😁 - pretty standard
Insert a picture - pretty standard
Insert media - provides an image and overview of the video rather than just the URL
Paper clip - attaching a document - pretty standard

Mini challenge
Get outside each day for at least 5 minutes in whatever weather.
Anybody else willing to give it a try? Lol, with this new format I am not even sure how to do that! They don't even consult with users before implementing a Rich Text Editor from the 1990s?
Some days I have to run from one job to another, but I have 2 days of split shifts at the same place, so this should be easy for me the next 2.
Friday March 7 👍️
More than 5 minutes. I could have accepted a second job for the day, just didn't.
Saturday March 08 - 15 minutes on that same path as the day before. Planning it again during my break today, it is the only place where it isn't spring muddy, it is paved.

Hi everyone.
I am Dawn, 64 years old, I live in SE BC Canada
I'm not sure how many rounds of this 100 that I have done, but quite a few. I first joined this thread at 198 pounds.
I was sitting at 130 pounds in 2021, working very hard to get into the 120s (ugw 110-118)
The weight that I am currently at is very hard on the joints in my knees, ankle, and feet.Week 1 Start Weight: 149.6
Week 1 Goal: 146.6 - The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
Week 1 Actual Weight: 151.2 - Superbowl backlashWeek 2 Start Weight: 150.6
Week 2 Goal: The start weight of the previous 100. Putting that it each week until I hit it
Week 2 Actual Weight: 150.0Week 3 Start Weight: 150.2
Week 3 Goal: Anything below 149
Week 3 Actual Weight: 149.0Week 4 Start Weight: 147.4
Week 4 Goal: 146.4
Week 4 Actual Weight: 150.6 : - (Day 29—03/04— 150.4 -
I am bound and determined to keep up the clear inulin fibre with B vitamins until it has been a month (the 11th). It bloats me terribly, almost immediately, which tells me that it is working? Idk. Day off today, then working 6 straight between 2 jobs. I must get some stuff done around home today since I am not going to have much time.
Not happy to be hovering around 150. I could easily be back at 200 pounds if I keep climbing. I was at 150 once before after losing 50 pounds and stopped tracking thinking that I knew the measurements, amounts etc. that I was consuming. I went right back to 200. I was at 130-ish for a full year, and was upset that I couldn't break into the 120s at that time. Yikes, so far from that now. For sure I will be tracking for life, and actually like doing it.Day 30—03/05— 150.6 - Well, I was trying to make it a full month with the added fibre supplement. Yesterday as soon as I had the first one I bloated up terribly within minutes. Very uncomfortable. I decided that since I am working the next 6 days in a row that I couldn't go on feeling like that. I have quit the extra fibre supplement, I will look at adding some things into my daily instead. I already eat a great deal of vegetables and one serving of fruit, but my fibre numbers definitely need a boost. I am going to try to add some grains and beans/legumes. That won't happen this week since I am pretty much prepped for the next 6 days. From what I have read about inulin it may take weeks to get it out of my gut. Today is day one of that.
My close friend was taking a fibre supplement years ago and I jumped on that bandwagon since she felt higher energy, clearer skin and stuff. She moved away 3 years ago and I stopped taking it. When we were on the telephone she asked if I was still taking it (she is) and I said that I wasn't, but that I would begin again. I don't remember it affecting me so dramatically the first time, but I am officially done with that and will find extra fibre somehow.
Day 31—03/06— 151.0 - Expected my weight to be wayyyy less this morning. Maybe a woosh coming?
Day 32—03/07— 149.6 - Not exactly a woosh, but I may have stopped gaining. All of that experimental insoluble fibre that I took sitting in my gut hopefully will go away within the next couple of weeks. Haha, I am on a new bandwagon now: 1/4 cup granola, 1/2-3/4 cup of fibre plain yoghurt - breakfast. Choked it down in the morning for 2 days, it is made and in a bowl in the fridge, I somehow have to get myself to eat it this morning. 21 days to a new (healthy) habit right? Next week I am going to try to incorporate some sort of legumes/beans for dinner in an attempt to get more fibre. (This weeks dinners were already prepped). I still eat loads of vegetables each day and a serving of fruit, but I have to up my grains for sure.
Day 33—03/08— 149.8 - This was 4:30am, and I expected to go back to bed, but I didn't, so I think that my weight would have been lower today. Glad I took the 1.5 seconds to weigh just in case I didn't get back to bed and started drinking water, coffee, etc. Which happened.
Day 34—03/09— 149.0 - I have read the posts, ack..time change and I am going to be late for work!!

Thoughts at the start of this round:
Approximately this time last year (Challenge #15) I began to slowly gain weight throughout the rest of my winter and well into my Spring. I am still battling some of those pounds as we start this new challenge. This is a new opportunity to prove to myself and my family that I AM serious about getting healthier. I know I have bad eating disorders that bring about horrible eating habits. I also battle cravings because I haven’t gotten away from sugar or chocolate long enough to stop the cravings. I have such a long way to go and only a sketchy road to get there but I’ll never give up on myself or lose faith in my strength or my resolve. I’ll admit that I’m not super confident that I will ever be in the 140’s again (my ultimate goal), but I AM 100% confident that I will shed these 190’s like a bad dream and NEVER weigh this much again. I don’t know when this will happen exactly. But I do know that it will. Thanks for sharing my journey and letting me travel with you on yours.

We were discussing what he could do work-wise to help further my reno project along. I should not have had dessert with my dinner. It was a moment of weakness. Otherwise, my meals were not too bad but probably loaded with the typical restaurant sodium. Today is hair appointments with DS and DGS and myself. I will take them out to dinner but will probably not eat until I get home. Nephew will come today to work on a project. I know that I will not always be perfect but I will be persistent. Back at it today.

@dawnbgethealthy I get outside when I first wake up every morning for about 10 to 15 minutes. One of the first things I do is go out to fill the bird feeders and put out food for the ground feeding birds and squirrels. Lots of yard and lots of area so it's close to 15 minutes.
Now that I've had the small coffee deck built off my bedroom, I plan on having some morning coffee outside there each day when the weather permits. It is uncovered and will yield me more vitamin D. It faces the woods and I will be able to see the wildlife at play. I am quite the porch person too. While my side and back decks are uncovered, my front porch has a roof. I sit out there every single day and get in some reading in the evening. In fact, I don't tend to even read much in the winter because I can't go out on the porch due to the extreme cold!
Of course, it would be much better for me to be out taking a walk than getting my sun in by just sitting on a deck or porch. Hmmmmm…..

Good Evening!
Day 29—03/04— 173.2 - Got in a walk today, that's how nice the weather was. Looking forward to another walk tomorrow.
Day 30—03/05— 173 - Spent the day working in my crocheting. Did well with food. No walk today since the weather was a bit uncooperative. Hopefully tomorrow.
Day 31—03/06— 172.8 --Did more crocheting because it is bit of a blah day. Need spring....NOW!
Day 32—03/07— 172.6 - Still going down. Got in a little over a mile walk yesterday. The winds are terrible, but next week, temps are going up. Spring is almost here…and I can walk more. That will really jumpstart my loss.
Day 33—03/08— 173.2 - Today will not be an active day. I have to do an at home medical thing....won't go into details. And this is supposed to be the last day of colder weather...thank goodness!
Day 34—03/09— 174.6 - Ugh! I had a super low blood sugar incident yesterday and I was eating candy to bring things back up...that's probably the reason for the increase. But today I walked 3 miles, so I hope that helped.

I'm 36 years old, 5'3. SAHM to twin toddlers. I lost 8 lbs last round, and I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs this round.
Round 21 Ending Weight: 147.3
Round 22 Starting Weight: 148.3Week 1 Ending Weight: 148.9
Week 2 Ending Weight: 150.0
Week 3 Ending Weight: 145.0
Week 4 Ending Weight: 146.8Day 29—03/04— 145.3. Short walk and a 45 min treadmill run. Food was slightly high. Happy to shed some of the excess water weight. I have a theory that energy drinks are making me bloated. I'm going to try to give them up for a week and see if my weight stabilizes a little.
Day 30—03/05— 145.3. Walks, but skipped the gym. I was super tired so decided to listen to my body and get some extra rest.
Day 31—03/06— 146.2. A short walk and a 5k treadmill run. Food was pretty good, with minimal stray snacking. Not sure why weight is up, other than plain old fluctuations.
Day 32—03/07— 146.2. A walk, no gym. Food was good. I've been really dragging this week. I think it's because of TOM. I haven't done as much running as I would have liked due to just not having the energy, and wanting to sleep instead.
Day 33—03/08—145.8. No walk, 10k run at the gym. Food was on point. I felt much better and really enjoyed the run. I skipped the walks because we finally got a little bit of a winter storm. It rained and was quite chilly and windy. Too yucky to take my kids out in.
Day 34—03/09— 146.8. Long walk, no gym. Food was a touch high. Ended the day with a beer.
Day 35—03/10— 144.8. Walk, 10k treadmill run. Had fast food, but fit it in my calories. I'm happy to see a new low weight and to coming this close to meeting my goal for the week.

My strategy:
- exercise minimum of 5 days per week
- walk every day
- log my water — I drink it, I just don’t log it, so I need to better understand how much I’m actually drinking
- be at a weekly average caloric deficit of at least 3500. Tracking this with goal of 500 caloric deficit each day. Rounding calories out down to the next 100 and calories in up to the next 100 —> this is to account for inaccuracies on both and to achieve a conservative result.

Oh my, I grew up in Toronto!
How cool that you are in the GTA.
We had a cottage in Muskoka when I was growing up (Kashe Lake) so I am very familiar when you are talking about Gravenhurst etc.
I also lived in Haliburton for 8 years.
Most of my family is still in Toronto and surrounding areas.
This is a fun reference point for me when I see your posts here on in!

I love love love that you go out and feed the birds 365!!!
Yes girl, get that vitamin D and fresh air
I too have a covered porch, I have a little heater out there so that I can be out there in the winter sometimes too.
Are you back moved into your bedroom now??

Hi everyone.
I am Dawn, 64 years old, I live in SE BC Canada
I'm not sure how many rounds of this 100 that I have done, but quite a few. I first joined this thread at 198 pounds.
I was sitting at 130 pounds in 2021, working very hard to get into the 120s (ugw 110-118)
The weight that I am currently at is very hard on the joints in my knees, ankle, and feet.Week 1 Start Weight: 149.6

Week 4 Actual Weight: 150.6 : - (Day 29—03/04— 150.4 -
I am bound and determined to keep up the clear inulin fibre with B vitamins until it has been a month (the 11th). It bloats me terribly, almost immediately, which tells me that it is working? Idk. Day off today, then working 6 straight between 2 jobs. I must get some stuff done around home today since I am not going to have much time.
Not happy to be hovering around 150. I could easily be back at 200 pounds if I keep climbing. I was at 150 once before after losing 50 pounds and stopped tracking thinking that I knew the measurements, amounts etc. that I was consuming. I went right back to 200. I was at 130-ish for a full year, and was upset that I couldn't break into the 120s at that time. Yikes, so far from that now. For sure I will be tracking for life, and actually like doing it.Day 30—03/05— 150.6 - Well, I was trying to make it a full month with the added fibre supplement. Yesterday as soon as I had the first one I bloated up terribly within minutes. Very uncomfortable. I decided that since I am working the next 6 days in a row that I couldn't go on feeling like that. I have quit the extra fibre supplement, I will look at adding some things into my daily instead. I already eat a great deal of vegetables and one serving of fruit, but my fibre numbers definitely need a boost. I am going to try to add some grains and beans/legumes. That won't happen this week since I am pretty much prepped for the next 6 days. From what I have read about inulin it may take weeks to get it out of my gut. Today is day one of that.
My close friend was taking a fibre supplement years ago and I jumped on that bandwagon since she felt higher energy, clearer skin and stuff. She moved away 3 years ago and I stopped taking it. When we were on the telephone she asked if I was still taking it (she is) and I said that I wasn't, but that I would begin again. I don't remember it affecting me so dramatically the first time, but I am officially done with that and will find extra fibre somehow.
Day 31—03/06— 151.0 - Expected my weight to be wayyyy less this morning. Maybe a woosh coming?
Day 32—03/07— 149.6 - Not exactly a woosh, but I may have stopped gaining. All of that experimental insoluble fibre that I took sitting in my gut hopefully will go away within the next couple of weeks. Haha, I am on a new bandwagon now: 1/4 cup granola, 1/2-3/4 cup of fibre plain yoghurt - breakfast. Choked it down in the morning for 2 days, it is made and in a bowl in the fridge, I somehow have to get myself to eat it this morning. 21 days to a new (healthy) habit right? Next week I am going to try to incorporate some sort of legumes/beans for dinner in an attempt to get more fibre. (This weeks dinners were already prepped). I still eat loads of vegetables each day and a serving of fruit, but I have to up my grains for sure.
Day 33—03/08— 149.8 - This was 4:30am, and I expected to go back to bed, but I didn't, so I think that my weight would have been lower today. Glad I took the 1.5 seconds to weigh just in case I didn't get back to bed and started drinking water, coffee, etc. Which happened.
Day 34—03/09— 149.0 - I have read the posts, ack..time change and I am going to be late for work!!
Day 35—03/10— 149.6 - Completely missed breakfast yesterday, and didn't even get a chance to eat my apple that I took to work. Yes, I know that for some people IF works, but for me my metabolism is just sluggish all day until I fire it up.

Mini challenge
Get outside each day for at least 5 minutes in whatever weather.
Anybody else willing to give it a try? Lol, with this new format I am not even sure how to do that! They don't even consult with users before implementing a Rich Text Editor from the 1990s?
Some days I have to run from one job to another, but I have 2 days of split shifts at the same place, so this should be easy for me the next 2.
Friday March 7 👍️
More than 5 minutes, almost 30 twice around Idlewild park paved path. I could have accepted a second job for the day, just didn't.
Saturday March 08 - 15 minutes on that same path as the day before. Planning it again during my break today, it is the only place where it isn't spring muddy, it is paved.
Sunday March 09 - 15 minutes on the same path during my work break. Doubtful that Monday I will get any time outside, I suppose I could put up the "back in 5 minutes" sign and go into the back alley of the restaurant.

250’s💋-- 240’s🎵-- 230’s🐸-- 220's📘-- 210's🌸-- 200's🎨--190's🌈-- 180’s🤑-- 170's🐋-- 160's🙋♀️-- 150’s🌻Thoughts at the start of this round:
Approximately this time last year (Challenge #15) I began to slowly gain weight throughout the rest of my winter and well into my Spring. I am still battling some of those pounds as we start this new challenge. This is a new opportunity to prove to myself and my family that I AM serious about getting healthier. I know I have bad eating disorders that bring about horrible eating habits. I also battle cravings because I haven’t gotten away from sugar or chocolate long enough to stop the cravings. I have such a long way to go and only a sketchy road to get there but I’ll never give up on myself or lose faith in my strength or my resolve. I’ll admit that I’m not super confident that I will ever be in the 140’s again (my ultimate goal), but I AM 100% confident that I will shed these 190’s like a bad dream and NEVER weigh this much again. I don’t know when this will happen exactly. But I do know that it will. Thanks for sharing my journey and letting me travel with you on yours.

Day 30 ~ 03/05: 176.6 Sleep was seriously interrupted with calf muscle spasms at 4:30! Leg is still sore ☹ Hope to get in a walk and stretching today. Off to watch a live production of “Great Gatsby” tonite.

Wt. Change this challenge: Day 11 was 179.8 so nearly 3lbs off. Slow but steady and feeling somewhat optimistic.

Good Afternoon!
@dawnbgethealthy , I find that unless I get out of my apartment, I can't get started. Until evening....then for some reason I get a spurt of energy. Wish I could switch that around.
Day 29—03/04— 173.2 - Got in a walk today, that's how nice the weather was. Looking forward to another walk tomorrow.
Day 30—03/05— 173 - Spent the day working in my crocheting. Did well with food. No walk today since the weather was a bit uncooperative. Hopefully tomorrow.
Day 31—03/06— 172.8 --Did more crocheting because it is bit of a blah day. Need spring....NOW!
Day 32—03/07— 172.6 - Still going down. Got in a little over a mile walk yesterday. The winds are terrible, but next week, temps are going up. Spring is almost here…and I can walk more. That will really jumpstart my loss.
Day 33—03/08— 173.2 - Today will not be an active day. I have to do an at home medical thing....won't go into details. And this is supposed to be the last day of colder weather...thank goodness!
Day 34—03/09— 174.6 - Ugh! I had a super low blood sugar incident yesterday and I was eating candy to bring things back up...that's probably the reason for the increase. But today I walked 3 miles, so I hope that helped.
Day 35—03/10— 173.8 - Well, not goal, but I take it. Had a 3 mile walk yesterday....first good walk since the fall. Looking forward to more.

🎯 Not in the right frame of mind to lose weight. Reminder to self … last year for our April cruise I was wearing size 18 jeans. My go to clothing for cruises had to be updated! This year I took in my favorite pants at the waist and bought size 16 jeans/pants for our cruise! I also fit in a little black dress that has been sitting in my closet for years and bought a new purple dress for the dressier nights on the cruise.

3/4: 213.1 - DH asked what really helped me last year to lose weight … I told him salads for lunch at home and less bread/starches. He has a habit of wanting bread for breakfast, sandwiches or fast food for lunch and bread & pasta for dinner. So we are going to tackle this together … I said you can have all the bread you want but I’m going back to my habits last summer and try to lose another 15 lbs.
3/5: 212.9 - Lent goals should help! DH decided to give up alcohol for lent until our Japan trip. I told him we should also give up drive thru fast food since we have a bad habit of grabbing something quick. AF=Alcohol Free
3/6: DNW Bike 30 AF
3/7: 212.6 - 2 days of homemade salads for lunch … I’m headed in the right direction. Bike 20 AF
3/8: 212.9 - Yesterday fried shrimp, hushpuppies and fries for lunch and cheese pizza for dinner are not going to help me lose this weight! 20 min bike plus yard work. AF still! Much better food day.
3/9: 211.1 - Yesterday healthy snacking carrots & hummus before lunch then no snacks in the afternoon & evening paid off. Bike 20. AF
3/10: 212.1 - Today gardened and an evening walk. AF
Gain / Loss this week: -.2
Loss this challenge: -.6
🎯 Better frame of mind. Salads most days for lunch and no fast food has helped. Trying to be a little more active to prepare my knees for all the stairs and walks in Japan.
3/11: 212.4 - Planning at home PT today and the bike! Need to plant one more pot at the back door. I loved walking around the family owned rural garden center yesterday … it is heaven to me to see all the blooming plants and very hard to decide what to buy when I’m limiting myself in order to have less yard work. Planning 7th day of AF.
