SAIL INTO SUMMER CHALLENGE

  • Popular Post

Here we go again!I actually feel fine after my surgery, at least well enough to host one of these challenges.

This challenge will run from June 16, 2017 through August 11, 2017. This will give us a total of 9 weigh ins. I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 - 2 day of receiving your weight but I will be recovering from surgery, then working three jobs and taking 3 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 June 16th) Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the challenge) at the start of the challenge on June, 16, 2017. Remember this goal weight is only for the end of the challenge, not your ending goal weight!!

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 6/16, 6/23, 6/30, 7/7, 7/14, 7/21, 7/28, 8/4, 8/11
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!!!

Remember we are all here to support each other! I look forward to running another challenge with you!

so it looks like my week long camping trip did not break my stall as of yet. That's ok though because I am still losing inches and I feel great. I had so much energy and was able to keep up with the kids!!

@naturallyzee I'm glad the scale is working with you again!

@thisisthenewme That's such a great feeling! Congrats!

@Torriluv87 I have updated your goal!

@Apple1 That is the important part! you can't focus on the number on the scale!

@Mandi4417 you are sooo close to ONEDERLAND!! I'll be hoping for you next week!

@dreamingsmall You don't need to have surgery already to join but there is only one weigh in left in the challenge. I will be doing another one though shortly after so you are welcome to join then!!

Thanks@Dashofpixiedust8! I haven't been eating the best. Still sticking to protein first and stuff but haven't been eating much or getting much fluids in. I need a real kick in the pants. Im so close to my nutritionists goal of 150. And less than 20lbs from my goal of 135. I feel like i could have been there if i hadn't have been slacking. Part of me has real FOMO over this past year and how poorly I've done diet wise. I feel like i did the bare minimum. But im taking it all in stride. Trying to get to 100lbs lost from surgery before my 1 year post op! [emoji16][emoji3]

@Torriluv87I can relate so much. I keep kicking myself that if I never went off plan I would be so much closer to goal now, maybe even at goal! I can't change what I've done just what I do in the future. You are so close to your nutritionist's goal! I have ALWAYS since the beginning had trouble getting in enough fluid. It's something I'm continuously trying to work on...

Last weigh in.

8/11/17- 176

I didn't meet my goal, but I am happy with this number. My 2.5 week stall had me thinking I wouldn't see the 170's so I am just thrilled to see the scale moving down again. This is the most I have lost in a week since the first month post-op.
