I also would like to join and this will be my first challenge. Although I'm still getting real foods back gradually after 12/16/15 surgery, so I really am at loss on what the realistic goal might be.

I'm 322 now, let's just throw out there 305 as the goal.

I know that's a lot, (especially as I'm seeing the 3 week lull in loses right now, which is expected) but with my BMI I'd like to give it a shot. I may need to revise the goal come February 1st, and I'm ok with that. Honestly any lose is the true goal, but setting the bar high for myself will help push fluids and Protein, and yep starting that thing called exercise.

Thank you VSGSarah3 for taking this hosting on!

I'm in. I am still in the beginning stages of pre-op and will not have my surgery until after tax season is over. However, I have been pushing myself as hard as I can since I started my weight loss journey last April. I will post my starting weight on Monday. My goal weight will be 389, that's 100 lbs down since I started.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
