Easter Challenge Anyone?

Hello all!

My weight loss has been stalled for awhile now and I am highly motivated by challenges. I wanted to see if anyone wanted to join me in losing weight by Easter. My goal is to lose 30 lbs. :thumbup: I'm currently at 221-223 depending on the day. It would be awesome to be in "Onederland." Easter is on 4/4/10 and I am eager to meet my goal.

I'd love to have you all join in. Anyone with me? :)

Im in for sure! Im also new (a week post-op) and would love to start with a challenge! Just let me know what I need to do because I am also new to this site!

just finnished the V day challenge with great success so I guess I'm in. I'm 228 now and lookin for 215 by then. Only 13lbs, but my loss is starting to slow a little so we will try to be realistic.

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.

Hey everyone!!

I just finished the Valentine's challenge and not only did i meet my 10lb goal i lost 4lbs extra totaling 14lbs YEAAAAA!! So i am gonna join the Easter Challenge... I am gonna lose 19lbs which will put me at 265...I have been dropping about 4-5lbs a week so hopefully it will keep on happening and i will exceed that amount for the challenge..

Here I go!!!:)

Joining in the challenge as well. I want to loose 17lbs by Easter but will be happy with 10.

What's "Onederland"???

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!! :(

What's "Onederland"???

When you reach a weight in the 100's

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!

Ok...I've been MIA on this Easter Challenge...but I am down...Check Out My Ticker... I have lost a total of 7 for this..still got 24 before Easter...I KNOW that is shooting High...but still gonna try...
