Late joiner here... I definitely want in! I'm a super slow loser, so I'm aiming lower - 10lbs by easter, which would put me at 255lbs.

Me too, me too!! I'm at 262, I failed the VD challenge...I shouldn't say fail, I didn't fail, I continued to lose, just slowly so I'm shooting for 10 pounds by Easter which will put me at 252, 2 pounds from the lowest I've been in 10 years (more like 13 years but close enough). Good luck everyone!

Hey All, hope you are all are going down : ) I have accepted that my goal for Easter may be slightly too much to ask for, but I am trying, lol. I am just so happy to be almost under 200!:(

I'd like to join the Easter Challenge as well. I didn't make my goal for the Valentine's Day challenge. My weight loss has pretty much stopped in the last month or two. I need to lose 12 lbs to get out of the 200's, so I'm hoping I can do it by Easter!

Surgery Date: Oct 26, 2009

Highest: 260

Pre Op: 236

Current: 211

Goal: 135

I'm also a freshly post-op'd gal, and would LOVE some motivation right now! My tummy growls constantly now. My mind is made up that I'm definitely losing the weight, but challenges make it even better for me! (I'm a tad bit competitive - even with myself - ha!)

I'm a bit reluctant to post a goal weight because I still don't know what's realistic for me to lose by then. I never would have thought I'd lose 30 lbs on the pre/post-op diets, but I did it.

The Ticker Facotory folks made me list a goal, so I put in 20 lbs that I want to lose. I don't want to discourage myself by setting a too-high goal for my first couple of months out of surgery. They told me to expect to gain a few, actually.

So I'm just going to join by saying I'll challenge myself to see just how much I CAN lose by Easter! And work my butt off to make sure that I defy the odds and NOT gain!! :(

Count me in the challenge! I am needing some motivation and this could be it!

My personal goal is 25lbs. If I lose... No, I take that back, WHEN I lose 25lbs, I'll officially be in ONEDERLAND!

So let me know what you guys are doing, and what you're successful with.

My main focus over the 6 weeks is going to be my snacking. I snack way too much after I get off work in the evening. I'm eating way too many calories in front of the T.V. I hope this challenge gets me off the couch, on the treadmill, and choosing healthier foods. I'll check back in on Monday!

Good luck everyone!

      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... :(
