Halloween Weight loss Challenge



Recommended Posts

I expect that just as everyone is posting their start weights now they will post an updated weight every Thursday until Halloween as well. It's relatively simple for me to take these weights and enter them into the spreadsheet (which updates the online version automatically). As I enter new data, I simply "LIKE" each of the posts I've already entered, a technique which helps me make sure we don't miss anyone. The spreadsheet will do all the real work tracking progress, calculating % success (SW-CW/SW-GOAL), and tracking lbs lost. This should be a fun way for us to see what big changes we are making both individually and as a group!

The is fantastic! Thank you for being so kind to take this on for all of us! :)

Ok, I'm in... Starting weight 259. Goal is 245. I tend to be a slow loser so I set the goal for 14 lbs. I hope to do much better!!!

I weigh in at 255 and I would like to be down to 245 lbs as well...... Lets do it. I look at this is just having fun even if I don't get there by then I know I will someday. Lets just have fun with this and stay supportive and active. Awesome idea....

I hope I'm not to late to join. I tried the Labor Day challenge and only lost a few pounds. I'm in quite a stall. So here I am again.

Start weight 177

Halloween goal 165

Hoping to break my stall! .

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
