Valentine Day Challenge?



Recommended Posts

Ugh. No loss again. That is two weeks with no movement. I feel like my body and I are in a war over shedding the fat and so far I am losing. I really, really, really, hate plateaus.

I've met and exceeded my goal! My goal was to lose 12 pounds to get down to 254. I'm 253.6 as of this morning! Tomorrow I get my first fill so it'll be very interesting to see how much I weigh by Valentine's Day!

Grrrr up 2 lbs this week to 184. Don't think I'm going to make my goal (173) :-( I've been playing with the same 2 lbs. Meanwhile I'm exercising my a$$ off and gaining? Boooo!

Down to 203. That elusive 199 is getting closer. It is just sitting there teasing me, but I am determined to get there by Valentine's Day. I have really been amping up the exercise. 35-45 minutes with the Wii Fit Plus in the morning and 30 minutes on the treadmill in the evening.

Hi gals. Checking in for Monday the 8th at 181! Down from last week, but my goal is 173, so don't think I'm going to make it. We'll see on Sunday.

I swear I have been in the 180's FOREVER!!!!!!

Woohoo! And the pounds keep dropping! One week to go until this challenge is over, and I'm 4 pounds below goal! Also, I met my new revised goal of being the weight that is on my driver's license. I'm 250! Can't wait to see what the scale says next week.

By the way, are we reporting our final weight as of 2/14 or on Monday 2/15?

Well...I finally saw a loss. 4 pounds! I'm not going to make 15 by next week, but I'm ok with that. I'm happy to see a budge in the scale!! Who knows, maybe I'll see another 4 by Valentines day! That would be ok with me....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
