Fresh off the Labor Day Challenge (lost 9 1/2 pounds) and ready for more... Good luck y'all!

My Halloween goal is 170

Weight before surgery: 234

Date of surgery: 8/11/2011

Current Weight: 139

Goal weight for oct 31st: 134

My goal is to be under 135 for this challenge. It is my personal goal. I met my surgeons goal at one year post op visit. I am having plastics done in November and I want to be under 135 for that and stable there. I hope to lose this last 5 pounds before Halloween and maintain it until surgery. Its very hard when you get to the end to lose any more weight. I am going to do the bootcamp and get rid of the carb monster once again. I did this a few months ago and it worked and I lost another 7 pounds but then starting eating carbs and stalled again. At least I know how much I can eat and maintain now. I just need to dig my heals in and shed the last 5 pounds before I go into maintenance.

This challenge is cool to me because it was the first one I participated in last year and I have never made a single one of them but tried them all! I want this last one to be the one I actually achieve! I can do this!

U can definitely do it

French sexy maid costume all mine! Here I come skinny b*****s!

Ok I'm joining in but will likely weigh in on Monday mornings.

Joined the Labor Day Challenge a couple weeks late so I'm very excited about this one. This is a stretch for me but that's how I like it

Giselle, my surgery date is the same as yours. My starting weight was 262 and I've lost 30 lbs more or less. I am impressed with how you doing!!! Would you mind sharing your diet/workout regimen? I have 600 cals a day, work out 3 times a week. Thanks in advance for sharing.

We have a huge Halloween party. (I just bought six new dead people for the windows and I remove all curtains and hang up shredded ones). This is my second favorite holiday to Christmas when I set up a tree in every room. I've just been told I'll be healthy enough for the party so I'm so excited! We have about 20 kids and a hundred adults.

My day after weight should be ten pounds lighter lol.

Here's the house I get to haunt....doesn't it just cry out for Halloween decor.

Hi Kiki!

I had an unusual start. After a 14 day pre op diet that I followed without fail, my surgery was postponed for 4 weeks! I was then on a modified high-protein diet and lost a few more pounds. Post op I ate 400 to 500 calories but now that I'm exercising more I eat 800 to 1000 calories. I work out 6 times a week for at least one hour, with the weekend being long distance walks. Last Saturday was 14 miles and Sunday was 10 miles. I only do exercises I enjoy and look forward to. I'm trying to keep my carbs down except for the long walks because my body needs fuel. Still working on getting the Protein up and many people on this forum have helped with great suggestions and receipes. For example, I put yogurt in my unjury shake, I use fresh fruit in plain yogurt for less carbs, and veggie sausage for more protein and less fat. Also, once I discovered lemon or lemon juice made my Water delicious and much easier to digest, I get almost all my water in every day. But I still have much room for improvement on all fronts.

I hope that helps but if you want to talk more, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to chat and share strategies! :ph34r:
