Today is my 11 month surgiversary. I am at a place I never dreamed I would be but still have a ways to go. The last 3 months have been a wash for me. No gain but very little loss. I am trying to be focused, logging my food, cutting out the carbs and getting in my Proteins. I have set a modest goal for this challenge but would like to experience a success as the Halloween and Christmas challenges weren't a success in terms of getting to goal but as a social worker being strength based, were a success in terms of not gaining during this time either.

Hi all, I will update my full post later, the cut and paste isn't working for me tonight. Just a quick check in to let you know I'm at 142.8 this week. Just 7.8 lbs. to goal. So I'm down 1.4 lbs this week.

Start: 144.2--Current: 142.8--Goal: 135

I fell short of my Christmas goal but still lost over 6 lbs. for the month of December, which I am very happy with considering how slow my weight loss has been the last several months. In 2012 I will definitely hit my final goal weight, and by Valentine's Day I should be within striking distance of that goal! I have to admit how amazed I am by these numbers that y'all have been putting up -- by comparison I am a slow loser (though I try not to focus on that and instead focus on how far I've come).

Surgery weight: 224.5 (1/7/11)

Current weight: 146.4

Valentines goal weight: 139

Final goal weight: 132

My one week check in. I did quite well this week, but have been on all liquids to kick start my stall. I moved from the Obese BMI category to the Overweight category.

10# to get to goal as of this week.

Surgery weight: 271

Starting V-Day Challenge weight: 179

Current weight: 170

Valentines goal weight: 160

Final goal weight: 135

I'm in!!! I have a habit of setting the bar a little too high as well, but like you Forensikchick it tends to make me work harder. Plus, I bought my ticket to go see my friend in Germany at the end of March and I really want to rock this sleeve!

I'm making an aggressive goal of having lost almost another 20 pounds by February 14th. I was losing about 4-5 pounds a week prior to Christmas, so I think I can do this if I get back on track (I've enjoyed the holidays a little too much).

ME TOO!!!! I'm in. . . during the holidays I, of course, gained a bunch of weight and now it's time to behave and get into the groove of things again!

Surgery Weight: 350 lbs

Current Weight: 225 lbs

Goal Weight: 212 lbs reached once

I may not get to 170 lbs in 7 weeks but at least the attempt will be there right? Thanks and good luck to all of y'all

      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! 😞
