Come One Come All! - I received a message from a non- sleever wondering if they could join when this was posted on VSG- the answer is YES! bypass, balloon, sleeve, band, pre- and post surgery! Everyone is welcome to join..

Please remember to post BOTH a STARTING weight (5/30ish) and a GOAL weight (7/11). If I do not receive a goal weight by June 2, I will put in a goal weight -15 from your starting weight so that the calculations work and will update once I receive the actual value.

Also, as an incentive, I will be donating 2 (to be determined) prizes:

  • Actively Losing Weight Phase: 1 for the person who loses the highest percentage of weight at the end of the challenge - This category is for those actively in weight loss mode (like me) that are working towards their end goal weight
  • Maintenance Phase:1 for the person who is in maintenance phase who's goal is to lose a few pounds or to maintain their current weight at the end of the challenge (which in my opinion is also very difficult)

In the event of ties, I will randomly select a winner from those meeting the criteria. The prizes are just for fun and to hopefully motivate everyone to post their numbers..

When posting your weight either for 5/30 or the following week - just let me know which category you fall into :D

Good luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
