Valentines Day Challenge!

Hello Everyone!! I looked and didn't see a Valentines Day Challenge yet and since I have a goal I want to achieve by then I figured I'd start one (sorry if there is one already!!)

I love spreadsheets!! I did this with some friends last year and we had a blast!!! It's easier to see your progress and update and those of your friends with out scrolling through dozens and dozens of posts.

Just click the link and put in your VST Username, your weight in day of the week and what your goal is for this challenge. (6 weeks)

My info is in and I will update tomorrow!!!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjyfO8-OrcmCdGYzMXlsVnc4ZTVJYzQ1dFZLelpqcFE

IF the spreadsheet isn't for you please feel free to join in below the more participants the better!!

My stats:

WI- Thursdays

Goal- 11lbs

Progress TBD 1/3/12

I look forward to seeing who plays along with this challenge!!!

Here's me with all my new best'ies <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' /> Kathryn Ireland and Martyn Lawrence Bullard (and some other folks LOL)

Back from Hollywood I lost .6 while I was gone' date=' which isn't terrible. Just 4.3 to go to goal...though to be honest, that's a stretch goal given how slowly I lose. We'll see how it goes! Maybe no wine for a week.....Ehhh let's not get drastic LOL

Oh I'm the little one in black on the end. Fun to be "the little one" again <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> It's been a few years![/quote']

Awww you're so sweet :) I'm a shocking 4' 12" :) and my high was 172 but I gained 40lbs in hospital after that so my profile is a bit miffed up :) MFP does not like temporary weight gains LOL

I bet you've got an itty bitty in you too :) You just have to flush her out :P

Practicing my positive attitude!

HW: 273

SW: 250

LW: 233.6

CW: 233.8 (+.2 My cycle cometh)

That was last week. Today I weighed in at 230.6! Huzzah! Moms Nature packed her bags and took some lbs with her, so yay!

Challenge goal 227

Lbs go to goal 3.6

Stalled for last weeks weigh in after coming off a 4lb loss the week before. Lost 3.6 lbs this week. Those are big numbers for me. The closer I get to goal, 23lbs to go, the slower it's coming off.

Valentines day is my 7.5 month anniversary from surgery. It has been an incredible journey. I do not really weigh myself much any more, maybe once every couple weeks. I am at 185 lb now and would like to hit 175 lb. Probably will take until St Patricks day, but we shall see.

I'm now losing 1.5 to 2.5 pounds a week, and I am just shy of two months post-surgery. I have to say I really like the rate of loss, it's subtle but steady!

Same goes for me! I'm 7 weeks post and I'm only losing about 2lbs a week. And I was stalled for about half of them. It's slow, and frustrating, but I'm upping my gym workouts to 4x a week instead of 3.

Weighed in at 150.5 this morning! ! My first goal is 150 so only a half a pound to go! !! As far as my Valentines Day goal I'm only 5.5lbs away from that! !
