Sleeveless n Seattle

Last weigh in....274#! Didn't meet my goal of 270 cuz I dealt with a nasty stall

So strange! Had my surgery 2 weeks ago and I have GAINED WEIGHT! 280# - up 5 since last week. So frustrating

Sorry for your loss

Today's weight: 275!

How you doing, Yodasplash?

I had surgery Friday which was my last weigh in: 283#!

CW: 290.8 GW: 270 My surgery is this Friday!

Hi Nona! Yes the true countdown has begun! I'm so glad it's happening I've waited to long to make this happen!!!!

Count me in!!!

I am traveling with a passport

Final weigh in: 296. 11 pounds shy of my goal but I admit it was a far fetching goal. I have 11 more days until surgery and will have dropped that weight before then. Thanks again, Bea!

Thank you for doing this, Bea! I will for sure be in for the Easter Challenge!

Debbie - how did you do during your pre-op? I need to lose 16 pounds before the 28th so I don't have to pay the extra $1k fee. Did you do the 3-4 Protein shakes a day plus a salad or do your own thing? I'm having 3 Protein Shakes a day but also throw in a V-8 and some chicken broth, sf Jello for variety. I just started liquid diet Monday so am doing more than 2 weeks but want to be absolutely sure to get my BMI under 49.

Kori! I am flying out on the 27th from Seattle on Alaska Airlines - my email is euglove@gmail.com

303 today. Only down a pound but I start my pre-op liquid diet today.

Kori! My surgery is 3.28 w/ Dr Cabrera!!!! See you there!

Oh I think we have a return flight late afternoon. Maybe we should no it it up I'm just so afraid of not getting to airport on time... I did by travelers insurance though...

It's like this whole thing your going through now is just great practice for the even larger event if surgery to come after. Woot

So proud of all of you who have already had your surgery and were only a few days in to March! Thanks for sharing your stories - they are a big help!

You rock! Love the positivity, Josh! Rooting for you buddy!

You too, Nona! xo

Thank you, Judy! This is sooooo reassuring!!!!

Way to go, MissCK!!! Nona-my surgery is 3.28 with Dr. Cabrera. I'll be at Mi Hospital - is that where you'll be also?

How's it going, Josh?

304 today - down 4 pounds!
