HeatherGurl's Challenge



Recommended Posts

Free to all who would like to join...

I plan on doing a monthly thing. We will see how it goes.

1. Start date: March 1st

2. End date: March 31st

3. Post your beginning weight.

Any and all suggestions are welcome. This is a friendly little CHALLENGE and I am NOT going to calculate anything. If someone else wants to that will be fine.

The main reason I want to start this is to track my weight on a monthly basis to see how much I can really lose by pushing myself...

So, let me know if you want in.

We will post a beginning weight on the 1st!

Just a little clarifications here :

I want this to be a challenge for us all to lose weight. I don't want there to big one winner, because we will all be winning.

I don't plan on prizes or naming a certain winner. In some cases that will make us work harder, but for my own personal reasons I just want us all to PUSH each other to win this battle.

I recently dropped out of another challenge just because I wasn't getting what I needed there. EVERYONE is welcome in this challenge and I don't want to divide anyone on LBT!!! :)

Like I said, we are all in this together and I just want to try and do things a little different. I would LOVE all comments and suggestions on how we want to do this...

Actually might start a whole 'nother thread with a new cool name!!! *HINT* *HINT* to someone that already PM'd a GREAT name!!!

AND since I am getting really busy at work, I might get another person to do the main page or something (P'Nut) hehehe

I'll do this with ya. I enjoy tracking my weight with others.

Do we weigh in weekly? on a particular day?

If you need help keeping a main page, I'll be glad to do that since I'm not working, Heather.

I'll join your challenge. I never enter the other challenges for prizes or to be the big winner. I, like you, just enjoy seeing my progress. Best of luck to everyone. :)

This sounds lke just what I needed. I've been at the same weight for months now and have kept putting off trying again. But this is just what I need to get started for the weight I want off for the summer! I'll be here March 1st, thanks!

Me too, please. Right now I need to be accountable. May not be so much about loosing weight for me as making significant changes in diet & lifestyle & such... but I'd like to be included.

      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... :(
