Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

My weight was 202 today. My original starting weight day of surgery was 217 (not 212 like the waisting away site says, can i get that fixed??). So I have lost a total of 15 lbs thus far.

Well I'm 2 weeks post op and still down 10 pounds! I started mushy's and the pounds are holding on for dear life. Oh well I know when I get a fill I will start losing again and besides I lost 13 poounds before I got my band for a total of 23 lost in all. I'd say I'm off to a great start!!! Only that last 10 counts towards the challenge though! Hoping to get to a total of 25 by the end of the challenge!!! Thats just 15 more pounds to go!!!

I've been using the starting weight on the day that people joined the challenge. I thought that was the way to be the most fair to those who joined the challenge when it started.

(If Paula wants to change that "rule", I certainly will -- it's her challenge =) )

Awesome weight loss though! Congratulations =)

Actually, I joined 3 days before I went to surgery, which weight was 217. But it took me awhile to get listed and didn't get listed till after I had gotten back and lost a bit already! But it is ok, if it must stay that is ok. I am going to ROCK this lap band once I can start exercising again! Thanks Crystal for the wooots!

Ah, right you are. I found your post, and you did indeed ask to join before your banding. I've changed your starting weight to 217. Congrats again. =)

195... -2 fom last week.

OK, Im getting excited about this. I might actually make it to a 12 pound loss by June 1st!

I think we are almost 1/2 way there... 5 weeks down already.

If anyone else wants to join, feel free. At this point, your goal is to lose 7 pounds in 7 weeks.

And to the winner *the one that has lost the MOST* I will donate a small sum of money to their favorite charity!!!

Where's Big T & Ladiebird?

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
