I am upping my exercise goal to 3.5 hours per week.Yes! Awesome! I'm going to join you. I'd like to get in 5 hours of exercise a week up from 3. So far this week I've done 3 and I'm down to 209.4!That is awesome!!! Congrats!! Today I walked 3 times for a total of over 15,000 steps and 7 miles.

I'm with you. I can't hardly stand the taste of my chewable multivitamin and calcium. So, to be honest...I only take them about once per week. I know that I need to take them every day, but it's difficult when you don't like the taste. And I have trouble buying a different brand since I spent a lot of money on these.

I did well the first 3 weeks after surgery and then stalled for the next 2 weeks.Did it pick up again after?Yes it has started to pick up again. I also started exercising more which helped as well.

My doc says to get 60g protein a day, which I find very difficult to reach without protein shakes.

My goal is 2.5 hours of exercise per week. Well, I shattered that goal and exercised over 4.5 hours this week. Yay!!

I'm in again as well. Really enjoyed the last one. Thanks for taking this over Sarah. Much appreciated!! I'll go ahead and post my weights... Starting Weight: 314.6 Goal Weight: 295.0

That is awesome news!! CONGRATS everyone!!!

Hope everyone has a Happy and Healthy New Year in 2016. May you each accomplish all of your weight loss goals!! Final weigh in: 314.6 (Wasn't as much as I wanted, but I'm happy to have lost weight through the holidays).

I actually will not be continuing running these. @@vsgSarah3 offered to step up and continue them though! I'll be in contact with her today and will make sure the link to the new thread is posted here =) Previously they ran back to back and for 6-8 weeks at a time. It's up to Sarah though! Thanks so much for all you have done!! It doesn't go unnoticed!!

That would be amazing to reach goal weight by next Christmas!!!

I am 5 weeks post-op and would love to take part in this exercise challenge as well. Thanks so much for doing this!!! Starting weight: 317.2 Goal Weight: 299.8 Exercise Goal: 2.5 hours per week

Thanks for sharing your experience and offering up a lot of helpful information. My wife and I love to go on cruises and look forward to hopefully going on a 10-year anniversary cruise next year. Overall I think you did good, especially when most people end up 10+ pounds heavier after a cruise.

My resolutions are: Lose 100 pounds by the end of 2016 Become more active (hiking, swimming, walking, jogging, etc.) Work on becoming closer to God Work to become the best ME I can be

Hey Steph, How often do you have these weight loss challenges? This is my first and it has been a tremendous help!!!

I'm so happy for this weight loss challenge as it has helped keep me even more accountable (since my normal weigh day is Friday). Having 2 weekly weigh days has been such a blessing. Thanks so much Steph!!! Weight today is 315.8.

I'm happy I've walked every day even in the rain and cold. Also happy with healthy food choices.

Thanks for the birthday wishes Alex, but especially for all of the great suggestions and advice!! I truly appreciate it!!

Great Christmas walk today!!! ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1451093540.316467.jpg Yes it was!!!
