Sorry it's taken me so long to start this challenge, I've been going through a lot.

This challenge will run from February 3, 2017 through March 24, 2017. This will give us a total of 8 weigh ins. I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 - 2 day of receiving your weight but I am working two jobs and taking 5 classes so if it takes me a few extra days I am sorry but I WILL have it updated as soon as possible!! Please note that I will recalculate the figures as soon as I can following the Friday weigh in - so your weight percentages may be a little off...

I have made these Friday weigh ins because that will allow us to start as soon as possible. You may post your weight at anytime during the week if Friday is not your weigh in day!

This challenge is for everyone. If you are pre op, post op, in maintenance or looking for some accountability; this challenge is for you! The rules and link to the spreadsheet are below!

Procedures:
Please Post Your Starting Weight (Weight on or around 11/14) and your Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the challenge) at the start of the challenge on February 3, 2017.

You can cut/paste this below and fill it in on your post -

Goal Weight:
Current Weight:
Today's Date:

Rules:
1. I will be awarding a prize to 2 lucky participants! The winners will be selected at random an the only thing you need to do to be eligible for the drawing is log your weight each week!
2.Post your weight on this thread every Friday. Specifically 2/3, 2/10, 2/17, 2/24, 3/3, 3/10, 3/17, 3/24
3. If you change your screen name please let me know.
4. If you miss 2 or more weigh ins, I will assume you no longer want to participate and your name will be removed from the spreadsheet.
5. If you miss a weigh in on Friday, no problem. Just post it asap.
6. We are all here to support each other, if you post a question anyone can answer.
7. You will know your weight is updated on the spreadsheet once I've liked your post!

The link to the spreadsheet is below! Have fun, and good luck with this challenge!!!

@klette0147 it's okay! Just get back on the wagon.

@rubis72 you are sooo close to onderland!!
@omieliz different scales always give different answers!

@emluv03 it's okay! Healing from surgery always makes your body go crazy. 3 weeks post op is always a hard time with stalls, you'll get through it!
@mandybb stalls are the worst!
@sxynana added!!
@jen-2+1 it can be a struggle! At least you are losing again!
@rockdaisy you are losing 3-4 pounds a week! That is not slow that's great!

My weigh in for 2/17 is 315

Week of 2/20. Up 155# boy am I depressed!

@one year post op Don't be depressed! That is ONE pound!! You will lose it in no time! I'm now up 2 pounds but I know why and I'm working on making sure I don't gain any more! We can get back on it!

I went up 3lbs my first week of challenge doing everything right. Usually it is water weight and at some point you body releases it. I try and remind myself long term success is not determined by the scale, but my actions. Stay strong and the scale will follow (eventually)
