I would like to lose 16 lbs too. So that would put me at 48 pounds total lost. I'd love to just go for 50.. but that might be pushing it.. thats an average of 3 lbs/week. I haven't managed to get into a consistent losing pattern yet. YET! I am upping my exercise.. so we shall see.

I will say 34 # which will put me at 288 one hundrend pounds gone

surgery day 4/29/08- 388

current-12.24.08- 322.4

goal- 188:thumbup:

I'd like to get in on this challenge. Sounds like fun. Put me down for 10lbs. I know it is not too much, but it will be a challenge for me. I haven't been able to lose too much lately. I don't think it is so much that I need a fill, but a diet and exercise adjustment.

Best wishes to all,

Stephanie

I would like to be down to 270. I am going to work very hard to reach my goal!

best of luck to everyone --YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU SET YOUR MIND TO!

I'd like to say 10#. I've just hit Onederland and have a fill scheduled for next week. I've been losing at approx. 1.5# a week so that should be just right.

Merry Christmas !!

I'm in. Just had surgery and my 1st fill is Jan 7. I'll shoot for 15#:tongue2:- Have no idea how much i'll be able to lose. even with a bum knee (fell on it with all this ice!!) should be able to meet it or come close:embaressed_smile:

My goal is 20lbs. I am trying to lose the first 10lbsprior to surgery, Jan. 15th and hopefully after surgery, another 10lbs by sweeties day.:tongue2:

I just got my band and I think I need my first mini goal.

Its my first goal so I'm gonna say 25 pounds!

That should take me down to 276... lets get it

I didn't make my christmas goal, But nearly did. I'm hoping to be at 200 by v-day. Not that I much Celebrate it. Depending on the day it's either a 22 or a 24 pound weight loss.

I haven't been doing so great. Maybe this will motivate my butt into gear. I am at 283 now, so I will try to get down to 265. That will be 18 lbs from now and v-day and a total of 50lbs. I wanted to have lost 50lbs b4 the end of the year but it didn't happen. I am feeling a little down about my weightloss. I had my surgery on Oct 8th and I have still only lost 32 lbs. I want this to happen faster. I am going to start trying much harder from this moment. I just ordered a bender ball and I will start exercizing. Good luck everyone!

I would love to be 200 pounds by V-day! Of course that might be shooting for a bit too much... about 20 pounds in les than 2 months. But, after the holidays I need a huge kick in the ass. :tongue2:

Wow,.... This sounds like a nice motivation... 51 days left? hmm... I would like to lose 15 pounds and be down under 240 by Valentine's Day. So, I'll need to lose slightly over 2 pounds per week.... which also means that my 6'3" husband needs to hide all of the chocolates somewhere that I and my handy stepping stool can't reach them.
