Okay so I love the idea of a goal board, but will have to create in May. Just zero time this week to make that happen.
However, speaking of goals, my goal for this April challenge was to come in at under 200 pounds, and today I barely squeaked in.

Honestly I didn’t think I would make it, but between Friday and this morning, 2 pounds magically fell off.

I have a few boards related to goals on Pinterest, one particularly for things I want to accomplish, new hobbies I want to try, etc. I also keep a "goal journal" where I can write in more depth about things that motivate me and what new actions I want to take. Now my next goal is to actually start DOING stuff and not just writing about what I want to do! :P

Amazing Team:


Goal boards can be digital or analogue!!!


As long as you are comfortable with the medium and it feels relatively low stress to make

AKA Pinterest for me 😍

I set a goal of 10lbs and lost 9. Close enough that I’m not bummed out.

Thank you to our wonderful hostess @GreenTealael for another wonderful month!! Bring on May 🥳🥳🥳

Surgery: VSG (just a little over 5 months post op, still losing...)

Starting weight: 146.4

Goals: Get to 135 lbs (which would mean a 100 lbs loss for me since October!) && increase strength training time/amount. Right now I do maybe 20-30 mins twice a week, I want to do more.

I almost made it. Almost.

Wanted to reach 135 lbs, but got down to 136.5 instead. Still, I lost 10.4 lbs for the calendar month of April, and I am totally fine with that 😎.

I didn't increase my strength training regularly this month either. There were a handful of times I went longer than 30 mins, but that was it. I really hate strength training 😒.

Thanks again @GreenTealael for doing these ♥️♥️♥️♥️

P.S. I reached my 6 month milestone on the 24th of this month! Still amazed at how fast it all went by. My post about it here:

I'm sorry. Squeaking in here. I feel like a failure. I never posted. I started at 296 and my goal was 280.

I'm 9 weeks out and have lost 48 pounds, but only 6 the last month.

I'm sorry, I'm not able to do the exercises like the ones posted. Not yet, at least.

In suffering from gout right now and waiting for dispatch health to come look at it this afternoon. For now I can't even walk without pain.

Congrats to everyone losing this month!

Do what you can, exercise components are additional not necessary to join. The challenges are to stay invested in your journey and self. You are absolutely NOT a failure. Don't forget it.

I guess 6 pounds is not a failure. I just expected more and was seriously scared I may not lose one more pound.

But I have never in my life lost 48 pounds. I would be happy with 6 pounds a month, because that's 72 pounds in one year and could get me closer to 180.

Thanks for the positive encouragement!

      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!!

      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
