Count me in. I have been on my journey for a year now, and the pounds are coming off slower. So, my goal is 10 pounds by Valentines day.. stretch would be 15 lbs...

good luck and follow those band rules....

I weighed in Wednesday. I lost 4 pounds last week! I'm so excited. It has been coming off so slow...1 pound a week so I'm thrilled for a 4 pound week!

Last week I did exactly what my surgeon says I'm suppose to do....3 meals a day with a fork, no snacking. Oh, also I didn't have any sweets! Amazing!

15 pounds is my V-Day goal.....4 gone, 11 to go!!:confused:

Happy New Year everyone! I hope that this is a wonderful year for everyone.

I am going to be joining a new ladies gym that reopened in the next town, tomorrow. Access to a gym close enough that it was feasible to drive to has been a problem. Best of luck all.

I want to do this challenge too! I am going to shoot for 3 pounds a week, so that would be at least 21 lbs putting me a beautiful new weight of--221 lbs! That would be amazing.

So here goes, this challenge will be amazing!

Karebare714 - 6 pounds that's awesome!!

I'm checking in after being away for a few days because of the holidays. I'm down 2.5 pounds and only 13.5 to goal. I'm only 4 pounds from 350 and that may still be a lot of weight but from where I started I'm feeling great. It's been a really long time since I can say I was below that and 340 is just around the corner from there.

I got my clearance today to get into some more intense exercising which I'm stoked about. I've been limited to walking and a few minutes on the eliptical. But now I'm cleared to start swing the golf clubs, throwing the heavy bowling ball again and more importantly being able to do some lifting and a more intense cardio routine. Can down begin to do sit ups crunchs and push ups as well. :tongue2:

Keep all the good efforts up and let's see how much weight we can all lose together.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
