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 hope that this happens for me. I havent been under 200lbs since 1995! I pray that I am able to do it!!! If not I do know that I will be there soon, but I was able to lose 40 pounds in 3 months before my surgery. Now that I have this tool, mabye I will be able to lose 47 pounds in 2 months!

I believe this is realistic LOL, lets rock and roll people!

If I hit goal that will put me down 54 pounds! Woohoo!

That will be 3 months and 11 days out from surgery July 20th.

I am in this challange....I missed the Labor day goal by about 3 lbs.....I need to decide what I am going to do for my Halloween goal.....

I'm in! I'm "assuming" that I'll make my Labor Day goal (only have 0.5 pound to go--whoop!) and am going to set this up to start from there.

An additional incentive is that one of my big goals has been to weigh less than my husband, which I never have in our entire time together. He was sleeved a year ahead of me and now bounces between 220 and 225--so hitting this Halloween challenge goal means that I will definitely be smaller than him. I've been waiting a LONG time for this, and I think these next two months are going to be GREAT!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

I missed my Labor Day Challenge by 9 pounds, primarily due to being in a cast and not being able to exercise for a month. I still will be in a cast for another week, but I accept the challenge anyway!

I met and surpassed my 4th of July and Labor day goals. This one has me worried tho! I am so close to goal and the closer I get the slower I lose!!

I am going to set my weight as my goal weight and HOPE that it happens!!

WISH ME LUCK!

I had one of those OMG weigh-ins this morning that put me at 229 (SUPER YAY!), so I decided to go big with the Halloween challenge and aim for losing 19 pounds between now and then. I think the trick is going to be exercise--I honestly haven't been exercising much at all, so getting that piece of the puzzle going is important.

So YAY--GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

I have missed my goals the past 3 challenges but this time I am going to MAKE this goal!!!! Excited to think in a couple of months I can be in the 140s and getting within 20 lbs. of my ultimate goal of 132 lbs!
