Valentine's Day Weight Loss Challenge

  • Popular Post

Welcome to the Valentines Day weight loss challenge! Im Sarah (vsgSarah3) I have taken over the weight loss challenges form Stephh so she can focus on her new coming addition!

Please be patient with me as I work full time and have 3 kids to care for. I will do my best to update every Monday, Tuesday at the latest. This is my first time hosting so please be kind!

I think its best to keep the same basic rules Stephh had going so he goes.

The challenge will run from Monday Jan. 4th through Feb. 15th. This will give a total of 7 weigh in's. Please add your starting and goal weight on Jan. 4th and your last weight on Feb. 15th. I will also update the spreadsheet on Mondays.

The link for the spreadsheet is:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZuOPpFyp_aGa6UQwcWiFzo-JTQVBrmFIot417Vq10qA/edit?usp=docslist_api

Rules and Reminders:

1. You will know the spreadsheet is updated once I have liked your post

2. Post weigh ins here, in this post only.

3. We are all here to support each other, so if you have questions posted here they will be answered by anyone else willing to help.

4. If you want to adjust your goal weight please add it to your reply in this post.

5. If you miss a weigh in, no problem! Just post it with your next weeks weigh in.

6. If your screen name changes please let me know your old and new name.

7. If you miss 3 or more weigh ins I will assume you no longer want to continue the challenge and your name will be removed from the spreadsheet.

This challenge is for anyone! If you have not had your surgery yet, if you just had surgery, or if you are just in maintenance and need to have some accountability, this challenge is for you!!!

Spreadsheet link: (please let me know if you have trouble with this link. First timer

I'm in! Thank you!!

Thank you very much!!

Thanks for taking over! I'm in. Goal is 199.8 -- Onederland. :)

I'm going to participate. I will post on Monday! Thank you!

I'm in!!

Starting weight is 163lbs. Goal is 155lbs. Thank you!!!

I am 10 days post-op and this is my first challenge! I know I will likely stall/plateau in a week or so, so I don't know what is reasonable. I don't want to set myself up for failure! Any suggestions? I think I am still having a hard time wrapping my head around this whole thing!

I will go with starting: 244, Goal: 230.
