Valentine's Challenge



Recommended Posts

Bea, you do so much already and are giving so much of your personal time to do these challenges you shouldn't have to spend even more time reminding us to report in. Each of us should have enough personal responsibility to weigh in and report without you having to remind us. If that is too much for us then thats on us. Thanks again Bea for all you do.

I totally agree.. I know your heart is in the right place and I totally appreciate that but it is a challenge after all and the only way to be successful at any challenge is to at least show up. If people can't remember to show up, then, I'm sorry but it's just not that important to them. :)

Bea,

You are awesome! For me, I am good with NO reminder. That really is a lot of work, and like I said in the beginning, we can each put a reminder on our calendars :), that is what I did.

Take care and hopefully the scale works for us all tomorrow!

Current weight - 179lb

Goal weight - 169lb

Morning everybody! Hope your weeks have all gone well and we get some good losses today!

My stats:

Start of challenge - 179lb

Week 1 weigh in - 175lb!!

4lb loss which I wasn't expecting at all! I think this will probably mean I don't lose anything next week, though!

Finally joined a gym yesterday (3 months post op - oops) and went before work yesterday. I don't know what effect the exercise will have on my weight, but I am going to try and concentrate on body composition now I think.

Valentine's Challenge

1/3/14-257 lbs

1/10/14- 255lbs

Bea I agree with everyone else about reminders. You're instructions on the 1st post are very, VERY clear as to what to do and it's enough work to take care of all this data for everyone. You shouldn't need to remind us too! I absolutely appreciate you :)

OMG, OMG, OMG! Can't believe it, but weighed 202.8 this AM! -7.2 from last week. Worked out like a maniac and kept my eating perfect. It really does work LOL!

My heart is racing at the thought that I could potentially be below 200 at next week's weigh in!

Have a great day everyone!

      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.

      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! 😞
