VD is just is 45 days from 1/1/09. How much weight would you like to push yourself to lose by sweeties day. My goal will be 340 or 16 pounds. What about you? What do you want to weigh when cupid arrives?:thumbup:

20 lbs for me. I need a push myself. That will put me at 155 lbs. I need to make goal by March, 2009 so the mini goal in February is just what I need. Thanks.

I want to join! I would like to lose 15lbs. That will put me at 176....inconceivable. I need a push and this will give me a reason to not put off exercise!

:party:Happy New Year!!

I want to get in on this challenge too! I really need it.

I was banded on 10/08.....have lost 24 pounds to date and need something to motivate me. This is just the thing.

Lots of fellow banders to keep me accountable!

My goal is 12 pounds. I plan to reach this goal by exercising and staying away from those sweets that go down so easy!

Much success to everyone. Together we can do it! :tongue_smilie:

OK, first post and I'm in.

I was banded on June 9, 2008 at 362lbs maximum. Last time I weighed in was December 23 at 280lbs.

I'll go for 250lbs - or 30 lbs by Valentines day. It's aggressive, but I think I could pull it off if I add exercise to my day from now on.

Looking forward to reporting back.

Oh, BTW, the picture is at 60lbs down. I'll update on Valentines day.

WOW! 30 pounds by valentines day?? i will be pullin' for you!! i am just hoping to do my 15 by then!! Maybe on valentines we should all set a new goal for st. patrick's day and i will do another 15 for that goal.

Well, I have been doing 15-20lbs a month, so a challenge is to hit 30 in about 6 weeks.

Excercise, no alcohol (the holidays) and no treats - I should be able to achieve it or close to it.

I also have a fill on Feb 5

Good luck

my weightloss has seriously slowed down... so I would like to lose 8 pounds that's reasonable. I also will me in Hawaii on valentines so would be nice to hit 190 then

I would like to join in as well. I would like to lose 15lbs which would put me at 150.

Count me in for a goal of 15 lbs!

I think I can do this!

Thanks for the motovation!

Please count me in I need this so bad! This came at a perfect time. I am setting a goal of 15# by Valentines Day. That would put me at 175#, which is lower than I remember ever being.

Good to hear from everyone. It sounds like this is hitting home at a good time for everyone. I'm pulling for each and everyone to achieve their goal. Whether it's 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 pounds that Soon to be thin to targeting, all will be for our health. Fat will be a thing of our past.

I had a bad weekend because for some reason, I ate what seemed like to be more than my 3 oz. each meal. I didn't get full. I have my first fill on 1/25 so hopefully that will take care of not feeling full. It will also be good to get back to a exercise routine tomorrow. Since christmas I haven't walked at all and I irritated at myself for letting me get lazy.

So for me this will get me back into the routine of losing.

ok I'm in! Im going to shoot for the stars and say 20lbs by VD. I have been struggling for the last 18 months. But after much soul searching I have figured it out.

Look out Gold's here I come.

ok how is everone doing.. i did the tread mill and went to a strenght training cLASS today...kicked my ass i am trying...

Update: Over last 3 days walked total of 2 hours(a miracle,it is), headed to WWatchers tomarrow at noon. Thats my best shot of getting 10lbs off by Vday!

Count me in too, please. Going for 14# to get to 250 (tears of joy when that happens). Got to get my water in, keep up the exercise, and keep packing lunch. We can do it folks! Yes we can
