Hi everyone!!

Few reminders...it's NEVER too late to join in. Just post your current weight and then your goal weight. When I like your post, it has been added to the spreadsheet. Please post in this thread as well...It is too difficult to look in a third place for PM weigh ins. A lot of the time, entering the numbers takes forever because the site it's hosted from is up and down. So it continually freezes up on me. Although today it was a breeze..knock on wood!!

Also, I'm no excel wiz. I know the very basic functions. If anyone else wants to take the time to do what Bea used to with the border crossings, I say go for it! I have little kids, so my time is pretty monopolized right now. Once school is back in session, I should have some more time to do that.

Also, we've had amazing progress you guys!! Saw some pretty big losses, same numbers as previous week, and small losses. Remember....any progress is better than no progress or going backwards.

I'm 10 months post up on this upcoming Tuesday and let me tell you...the losses are hard fought now. I work pretty hard to get each pound off. But...it's also about balance too. Learning how to balance life, food, fluids, exercise, family, job, and other responsibilities is always tough for any of us...but the key is balance.

As long as you are not going back to pre surgery bad habits..., all of your efforts, actions, mindfulness, and choices ARE progress!!! So many of us find ourselves striving for perfection....but we are human. And what we really need is just some balance.

Ok...that's my weekly message. You can find me on Instagram at gomekast. Search user and I will come up.

Have a great rest of the week, make it a good one!!

Well I want to say that I will be getting my scale this weekend so I can keep a better count of my weight loss. The digital scale is sending me off. I just wanted to post to say I am still in the game. Lol

Happy Monday morning! I didn't make the best food choices this week nor did I exercise, so I was a little apprehensive this morning but....

146.8!

I just might make my goal for Labor Day! Thanks again for taking over. These challenges actually help me get out of bed on Mondays! :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
