Should have thought about this before I started this challenge. My weight is 148 which is up 3 pounds. I had tummy tuck and breast lift last week ----so I should have sat this one out knowing I would gain weight from surgical fluid and swelling. Is there a plastic surgery forum- I am curious how long this will last?

Congrats there is but I don't know where to find it- under search?

I hope there is a memorial day challenge in the works.

Me too, Ree, 'cause I certainly didn't make this one. . Congrats to all you did!!!!! Happy Easter!

Please let me know if there is a Memorial Challenge!

May the joy and peace of new beginnings be with you during this challenge!

As always, my apologies if I missed anyone!

Okay...we might as well go another round with the Challenges! Especially since they are so darn FUN!

The new topic is called "Memorial Day Challenge" (no surprise there!) and can be found at:

http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/304846-memorial-day-challenge/

If you ever get lost, I tag all of these with the term "challenge" so you should be able to search the forums for it and find the link there as well.

Good luck tomorrow as we bring the Easter Challenge to a close! I figured we might as well jump right in to the Memorial Day challenge, so the weigh-ins will be on MONDAYS and will start the day after the Easter Challenge ends (April 21).

Final numbers. Goal 235. CW 236. Missed it by 1 pound but I'm happy none the less.

I'll post my final Easter challenge weight tomorrow, every day counts for me;) but I'm in on the Memorial Day challenge too. Thx Bea!

Back up to 227 this morning. My body just seems to want to stay there. Oy! Anyway, have a very happy Easter, Bea and everyone! May your weigh-ins all be lower!

Today is 152.4.

Weighing in..... 166 this morning, down 2.6 for the week & I reached my Easter goal of 10 pounds lost :-)
