I want to revise my goal for Jan.

Previously I said I wanted to be 185 by then (was 208 then) but I am now 192.So I think I will drop it with 10 pounds and try for 175 by 1 January 2013.Will revise again if needed.

How was ur surgery ?? Hopefully things went well. I just had mine on 10-22-12 in Kennedy hospital, Stratford, NJ. Look up my posts on utube, search for 39 hours before my gastric sleeve surgery. Good luck.

Ok' date=' I'm in. I'm also in the Halloween contest. I would like to be 135 (goal) or a size 6 by December 31st, whichever comes 1st. I'm 166.6 so 31.6 lbs to go in 3 1/2 months. I think I can do it. I'm also training for a half marathon so my fitness goal is also to run 10 miles without stopping and at least a 12 minute mile. I'm only up to 4 1/2 miles at 13 minutes. I have a ways to go. If i keep running tge weight should hopefully come off.

Good luck everyone!!!

I haven't jumped on here in a while because I've been so focused on the Halloween challenge. I've already made some great progress to my original quote above. I am now 154.2 lbs so just 14.2 to go by the new year. I'm running 10 minute miles already, but have not made 10 miles without stopping (but I have done 5). I'll most likely weigh in on Friday mornings starting next Friday.

Good luck to everyone in the losing and/or maintaining phase!! Lets keep the turkey and treats to a minimum.

I think I should also point out that I revised my original goal from 135 to 140. I think 135 will be way too small for my frame. I had some fuzzy math going and wanted to correct my post before someone called me on it. Ha!!!

I was the same way but look at your self look where you came from & look where you are now keep it moving & stop being hard on you. It's a process & it's all about you. As long as you keep going down, that's all that matters . :-)
