I'm game. I'm 301 right now. I'll shoot for 30 pounds by April 13th. 10 pounds a month is totally realistic and I'm starting my exercise routine as well. I can't wait to be in the 200s!!

Okay, okay... I'll bite!! LOL.. well, not really... but... LOL... I accept the challenge...

Starting weight 338

I'm in! Starting weight 245. I'm going for 225 by April 13th! 20 pounds. Wish me luck, and good luck to all!!!!

I'm in!

Starting weight: 235 lbs.

Goal weight: 190 lbs!

Sounds great!

My weight is 214.4 - I'm a new sleever so I'm not sure what is a realistic goal.

April 13th goal would be...50lbs? That would be amazing though.

I'll think on it but I'm definitely up for a challenge!

Starting weight (as of Jan 13th): 278

Goal weight: 228

Okay, joining in...I would LOVE to lose 15 of the 21lbs I have left. I *know* it doesn't seem like much, but I'm 15 months out and the loss has been reeeeeally slow since about 8 months post-op. But I'm up for the challenge...thanks for starting the thread BD!

Just updating, I'm down -2 of the 15, so it's going slow but it's going... :)

Made it plus (or minus rather) 2 lbs! I love my sleeve!!!

Done 10 lbs. :( Was hoping to be at goal but I can say I am really happy where I am.

Yay I was looking for this! I was thinking I wouldn't reach this goal but I've passed it :) I started the challenge at 245 and am down to 225 today :)

2 more days to go...
