I can't weigh in on Thanksgiving morning because we have decided to fly to Minnesota to be with my husband's family (I only count weight on my scale). But...I didn't think I was going to make my goal of 145 because I was in a two and a half week stall. Surprise' date=' I went down a pound yesterday and today....SEVEN pounds (I apparently exercise or have liposuction in my sleep LMAO). So, my final weigh in will be on Tuesday morning before we leave for the airport. But if I stay on track I just might make it!

Starting weight 185

Challenge weight start 155.6

Today's weight 146.6

Challenge weight goal 145.nothing :P

Seven pounds in a day. Wow, congrats on that

I know I already weighed in this week but just wanted to report today because I'm so so close to my Thanksgiving goal, losing 100 pounds and hitting onederland. If I can accomplish all 3 that would be awesome. I'm also excited because some 16's are too big on me now. It's strange because I remember wearing a 16 when I weighed 170 pounds years ago?? What's up with that?

I set a fairly ambitious goal of 11 lbs. To meet my challenge I need to lose 6 lbs from now till Thanksgiving, which is 9 days. I may pull off 3, but 9 is not looking possible. A stall didn't help things.

But no matter what, I've lost, which is a win.

So I posted this last week pretty much knowing that there was probably no way that I could make it to my challenge goal. But my stall broke and I've lost 4 lbs since the comment above.

That means that between today (Monday) and this Thursday, IF I drop 2 lbs I will make it! It IS possible!

No, I won't be upset if I don't. I'm very grateful and appreciative of my progress so far. Setting these goals along the way do add some interest, though.

As of today, I have met my goal of losing 10 lbs by Thanksgiving!

Challenge start weight: 213

Todays weight: 203

This was my first challenge & I'm still in mega loss time - @ 3 1/2 months from surgery.

Congratulations to everyone who tried & lost, that was really the goal from the beginning.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
