Here we go, this should be the official one!

(I hope that's ok, and the other one was originally just supposed to be a 'should we do another challenge?" thread?)

I would LOVE to make 8lbs this month.... so that's my goal. Making me 209.8lbs.

My goal is also to join a gym this month, hopefully VERY soon. As soon as I'm feeling 100% better from my bronchitis.

So, everyone, I hope you don't mind reposting your goals for the month ?

okay, i'm adding to my october goals...i'm gonna try to get back on the water wagon and drink 8 glasses a day.

So far I have only weighed myself once a day hurray for me!!! but i have not exercised

Okay, I have been sitting still all summer and I am getting a fill on October 16th so my goal for October is to break the 100 pound mark. It's only a couple of pounds, if you guys can keep a secret I actaully have put 5 pounds on in the last month so I really need to lose 7 pounds to break the 100 pound mark. Shh it's a secret.

Cheers

That means you've lost 93 lbs! holy crap! your my hero!

Hi Tommyo.How long have you been banded? Who did your surgery ?

I was banded last December in Mississauga by Dr L Tin at the credit valley hospital. 93 pounds is a lot but I have been between 98 and 90 pounds since the beggining of June. I have been very busy with work (New Job) so my stress level has been high. It's time to start losing again however so with my fill coming up I plan to start dropping lbs's.

I work out 5 days a week so I think it's all about intake, my big challenge is ice cream so I have stopped buying the stuff.

Onwards and Downwards as they say.

Cheers

TommyO

my goal is too hit 190 buy the end of the month...everyone cross your fingers for me..lol

awesome job, Tommy! How much more to you want to lose?

I'm a big ice cream fan, but luckily for me, it seems that after a few bites, my band shrinks closed and I can't do any more! LOL

Oh, all the wasted trips to Dairy Queen.... and the container of Cherry Garcia that's actually been in my freezer for WEEKS!

You guys know how long that USED to last me (never mind my midnight trips to the freezer, eating Dan's ice cream! No more!)

Anyways, good job Tommy. You really should come visit us here more often!

I would like to lose another 50 -60 lbs then see what happens, I started at 420 so a 150 pound loss puts me no lower than 270. It may seem high but I'm 6 foot 6 and look quit fit below 300. I played football in a past life and have a fairly muscular build so 270 would be a good weight.

I tell be people I have a washboard stomach it's just piled high with laundry.

Just gotta stay away from that old ice cream. Looks light Jello light pudding is going to have a sales boost

TommyO

Oh one more thing, good luck and I know you'll hit 190 IamCanadian

Canadian, my fingers are crossed, good luck.

Tommy!!! That's fantastic, 93 lbs, now that is encouraging for all of us. As for the ice cream, have you ever tried frozen yogurt. My husband is a big ice cream fan and now he eats frozen yogurt. Chapman makes several flavors, my husband's favorite is cappacino with chocolat expresso flakes and for 1/2 a cup it's about 100 calories.

lol about the laundry. What kind of football did you play? We are big Canadian football fans in this house and we have season tickets to the Montreal Alouettes. Go Als Go!

Hi Everyone!

I too am in for the challenge. I originally said I was going to do 6 lbs... but I had a killer week and was working so hard I didn't have time to eat (funny that used to never happen to me!!!

So... I am changing my goal to 10 lbs!!!

I tried to use the ticker to make one of those cute goal charts, but it didn't work? So... I won't use it.

October Goal 10 lbs.... so far this month I am down 4 lbs!

Banded April 4th 2006 (Montreal)

Fill June 9th 2006
