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!!!

This post above was made on 9/7/12. Since then I have lost 20lbs exactly. Today I weighed in at 146.6. My marathon training has been stalled due to a torn calf muscle, but I did get up to 8 mile runs at 11 minute miles. My goal was revised by my Dr to 140 so I'm just 6.6 from goal. The weight is slowly coming off now that I'm so close to goal so I most likely won't make 140 by New Years Day. However, I'm officially in size 6 clothes so I made my goal of either the weight or the size by December 31st. I'm happy with this progress. I haven't been a size 6 in over 15 years (started in a size 20). Good luck everyone!!!

Had a couple and up and down days with the holiday grazing but this past week I have seen the scale go down consistently...My year end goal is a definitely a challenge at this point but I am going for hard so that I can get as close to it as possible. In fact, I have no Christmas plans so I should be able to avoid all the holiday grazing I did over the past month.

HW = 232 SW = 227

VSG = 08/17/12

Wk 1 (12/07) = 182

Wk 2 (12/14) = 179

Made it :) Goal was to be 200 or less - still hanging in at 198. Folks are not kidding when they talk about losses slowing down at 6+ months, that coupled with an out of town visit to family (aka the land of baked carbs) it can really put the tool to the test.

My husband made a good point - normally at this time of the year we would be at least 10 lbs or more up, and climbing - we have both stayed the course and maintained and lost a wee bit with the holiday challenges. I'll take it! here's to being more active and making healthy choices in 2013 - cant wait to see where we will be next New Year's eve ;)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
