Halloween (Oct. 31) - What will you Weigh?



Recommended Posts

For those who have met their goal for Labor Day already, CONGRATULATIONS!!!! If you'd like a head start, I'm starting the new Challenge NOW. :) Good luck!!!

I will wait to begin on Labor Day though, in hopes to get a few pounds down by then. Today I weigh 186.2 - a combination of surgery weight and PMS... :( but I'll just have to work hard at getting this off. I'll have to do it without the help of working out too! I can't start to do anything seriously calorie burning until six weeks out... or really until my surgeon gives me the go ahead. So, I'll have to really watch what I'm eating!!! Not that I didn't already, but still.

All I can do physically right now is walking, and not even anything fast... just... walking... ugghhh!!! I feel a little lost right now, but I digress...

I'm confused, is our starting weight our overall starting weight before surgery or starting weight for the challenge? I'm assuming for the challenge and going with that. :)

My weigh-in date is Monday so I think I'll wait for that date too but will do my "place-holder."

SW ~ TBD

CW ~ TBD

GW ~ 200 lbs by Halloween! BOO!!!

Wow, this is a lofty goal but let's see if I can do it!!

Hi-

I am in!

not only does this end on my Birthday :) but last several years I have made great strides in weightloss by my day-

we celebrated with a 50 mile bike ride that morning- I have had up to 24 people join me... 5 years running now...

open invite to anyone that wants to join me this year!!!

50 miles through the wine country, during the best time- harvest. the colors and smells are incredible!

this year I would like to be at goal- will I ? I don't know... on my cycling forum, we have a 52 day challenge- eat clean, exercise and loose weight- it ends 10/31 too. :) I will work on exercising daily and drinking more liquids.... the eating is a given....

It doesn't matter what I weigh in at... this year, no matter what- I am at my lowest in 35 years.

Hi all,

My goal for Halloween is based on losing another 10% of my body weight and averaging about 2 lbs. per week. I lost a little faster than than over the Labor Day Challenge, but I expect my weight loss to slow in the next two months. I will update my weight every Friday. I weight every day but I only log my weight on Fridays (except for the final challenge date) to keep myself sane.

My Halloween Goal also includes reaching the following goals:

174 lbs.: I've lost 80 lbs. (32 pre-op and 48 post op)

172: I've lost 50 lbs. post op

169.9: My number starts with 16. I haven't weighed this since the mid-90s.

164: I've lost 90 lbs. (32 pre-op and 58 post op)

162: My Halloween goal and I've lost another 10% of my body weight (from 180 to 162) and I've lost 60 lbs. post op!!! The next 10% will take me to 11 lbs. from goal: 146!!!!!!

Halloween Goal:

SW-177.............CW-177...............Halloween Goal-162

Oh wow!! I would have loved to join, but I won't be able to do anything so strenuous as I'm still recovering from my surgery, even then. Maybe next years! :) YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Lynda, GREAT JOB!!!! Keep it up!!! I can tell you, always having some kind of goal is great... for me, I know it will keep me from ever gaining my weight back. :) *hugs*

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
