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*

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

      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! 😞
