I would like a challenge to lose at least 10 pounds by valentines day. I have been stalled on weight lost, so I think 10 #s is reasonable. I'm in:thumbup:.

I have been banded for 2 weeks as of yesterday and I can all ready say that it is the best thing I have ever done in my life! I weighed in at surgery at 290 and as of this morning i weighed 276. I have a goal of 250 by Valentines Day. I have not weighed 250 since I was in 9th grade!

I'm in! I am currently at 220. I would like to be under 200 by Valentine's day, but I have been stalling a bit lately so I'll go with 12lbs which would put me at 208.

I'd like to do the challange as well. I just got banded about 2 weeks ago and as of my follow-up appointment yesterday, I've lost 20 lbs. Though I know the rate of my weightloss will slow, I'd like to get out the 300's by then. So for me, another 31 lbs would be great. 299lbs by the 2/14 is my goal.

I too would like to join the Valentine's Day challenge. I would like to lose 20 lb by then but it is probably more realistic to say I will lose 15 1b.

I am up for the challenge even though I was just banded on Monday. I want to stay focused and enjoy the encouragement and support of the group. Ten pounds sounds good to me.

OK I'm in! :)

Never done a challenge before, so let's see.....6 weeks till Valentines Day, so I'll say 12 pounds. I was banded 12/14 and am regular food now, so my loss is really slowing down. So that would put me at 209 on Valentines Day.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
