One-on-one holiday exercise challenge, anyone?



Recommended Posts

Lets work on this one as a free-be no money involved. (just my suggestion but will go with majority rules) Lots of folks here are cash pay customers for the surgery and they need the $50.00. One thing I am comfotable with is knowing how you here are all fantastic people I know the winner would have won the honest way. But you have to understand some of us (probably only me really) will go to any means (leagally) to win money. LOL Was thinking like just before the end when everyone is down 30-40 pounds and there are just a few pounds seperating us I would post a picture of me in a pair of thong speedo's. LOL by the time you all recouperate and get out of hospital from the heart trama or pyscialogical damage I will have passed you all up. lol

I'll pass on the $50.00 bet, I just had surgery and I still have to pay for it! If y'all want to do the money thing, count me out, I'll sit back and be a cheer leader too!

Greg - You can still post that picture though! :laugh

Okay...no money and no porn. I just can't wait to get started! Oh yeah, I'm supposed to be exercising anyway. :guess I see my doctor Friday and will be able to tell him I have started a regular program now. ;)

Oh, Greg, how's the legs?

I agree, no money required -- but, Greg, go ahead and post that Speedo picture!

OK, everyone, get ready for Monday.

I would love to join in. I will be travelling around a bit and moving on top of that over the silly season so I may not be able to sign in EVERY week, would anyone mind?

And as far as challenges go, here is a site that I am also involved in where challenges are set much like this, but the moderator makes a separate area for challenge discussions so the threads don't get out of hand. You guys can check it out for ideas...http://www.slimmingforlife.com.au/

Look out, Penni's headed our way. . . and Jodie, please join in. We're not sticklers for form here, so just let us know how you're doing with the challenge whenever you get a chance. You have an advantage over us Yanks: no Thanksgiving food orgies next week! I'll check your suggested web site to try to keep the thread manageable. Thanks.

(Just came back from a 1.5-hr. walk in the park on my day off. I only planned to walk 45 minutes, but the dog went nuts chasing squirrels and wouldn't come back when I was ready to leave. She's had an exercise energy boost too!)

Here's a summary, as far as I understand it. Greg and Becky, you may have different ideas. Anyone interested will weigh in on Monday, Nov. 22, & send a PM to Greg. Then we just start exercising like fiends. Check in on the thread on Mondays if you can & report your exercise for the last week. The challenge runs through Monday, Jan. 3, when we'll report our final weights, and also tell how we're feeling and any NSVs (inches lost, muscle gained, blood pressure down, construction workers whistling, etc.). I don't know if the winner should be chosen based on most exercise, most weight lost, or best description of Greg in his thong Speedo; I leave that up to wiser heads.

That's too much work for me, but I'll exercise for the sake of the challenge since we all get to see Greg in a Speedo. That's how I interprested this thread. When will he be posting it? (Funny how quiet he got.)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
