  • Bea's having a GOOD DAY today! For the first time in 28 years my BMI says I'm "overweight" instead of "obese"! I hit 200.0 today and could not be MORE THRILLED! I showed increases or the same weigh

  • I know it's not weigh in day yet, but I am so excited about what I saw on the scale this morning! I reached my goal of ONEderland!! So excited to finally break 200lbs. Just hope it keeps going in this

Stayed the same 173.

I was up this morning, but still made my goal. It is to be expected that having surgery would give me a bump this week. Oh well!

Goal 195

Today's weight: 194.6

Thanks Bea! These are super motivating :-D

I missed my goal by .4 lbs.

I am at 193.4

Goal was 193

I'm okay with it... On to the next one!

SW 168, GW 160, CW 163. Total loss 5 lbs. Missed goal by 3 lbs.

Current weight 295.8 lbs. Starting weight 305 lbs Goal for St. Patty's Day 293 lbs. Missed my goal by 2.8 lbs. Not bad considering I hit a stall for most of this last week. Not what I hoped for, but I'll take it.

I have lost 11.2 lbs on the challenge. Now down to 213.8 from 225 when we started. I was shooting for 209 I think...So I got close. And 11 lbs in a month or so I think is pretty good...the walking is helping a lot!!

Final weigh in: 152lbs.

Didn't reach my goal but I'm still quite happy with my progress.

Is it too late? I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to report back to this thread.

I reached my challenge goal on Sunday of 215! :)

Forgot to post final weight yesterday

03/17 214.6

Didn't hit my goal but not going to let it get me down

Ready for next challenge ;)

Ended at 227

Where did I miss the Easter challenge? I know Bea is doing one lol

I couldn't find the link either- usually she posts it here do I'm sure she is prob busy

I am assuming the next challenge will begin on Sunday! That is if Bea's final decision is to have challenges end on the actual holiday! Thanks, Bea, for making this weight loss business a bit more fun!

I'm running a bit behind, it seems, but finally have the introduction to the Easter Challenge posted (http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/301321-easter-challenge/).

Weigh-ins will be on SUNDAYs for this one, or whatever day of the week works best for you, individually (smile). Yes...we're flexible. :-)
