I lost 2.5 pounds during this challenge instead of the 5 I was hoping for. Its okay, a loss is a loss. I am so close to goal it is going to take a while to get there because the closer you get the harder it is. Im okay with that as long as I am losing. See ya the next challenge.

OK, I'm in too. I think I need a little inspiration.

I will put myself in for 10 lbs. and upping my exercise to 5 days a week from 3.

Starting at 285.9 (hey those decimals are important! ;) )

July 4th Challenge weight goal: 275

So, that would be 10.9 pounds

Well, I lost 9 of the 10.9 I wanted to lose by today, and I DID achieve the 5 day/week workout schedule, so all in all I think this was a success! Sure, i missed the mark a little, but I really did all I humanly could to get there. Good job everyone.

Brandymarie, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. :( Praying for your comfort.

Well didn't do as well as I'd like currently 643.

But okay I guess since I'm 18 hours pre sleeve.

Well since being sleeved monday morning I've lost about 20 pounds, I think it was from the saline solution iv plus having catheter, lost a lot of Water weight. But have been walking some and only eating 100 or 200 calories a day. Plus how ever much half a stomach weighs lol.

I was 645 monday, now scale says 619.

Ha! So I saw your post and decided to weigh this morning and I weighed in at 189.8. My goal was 190 and yesterday I weighed in at 190.4 and missed it by 4 lousy ounces. Maybe we'll kick butt in the labor day challenge and actually make goal by labor day and not the day after. Lol! Good luck to us!!!!!

      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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
