Labor Day Challenge



Recommended Posts

There are officially 55 days left of summer... 7 weeks and 5 days until Labor Day... How much weight will "fall" off you before we fall into Autumn?

Pre Surgery Weight: 264lbs

DOS Weight (12.12.2012): 254lbs

Weight Today (07.09.2013): 181.8lbs

Goal Weight for Labor Day: 170lbs

By September 2nd I want to lose 11.8lbs.... I am hoping I am able to do this... Initially I wanted to challenge myself to be at 165lbs by my birthday which is Sept 5th... But I don't think I will make that and my birthday isn't really a national Holiday that everyone here can join me in the countdown till, so I figured we could do this Labor Day Challenge and cheer each other on!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
