Valentine's Day Challenge



Recommended Posts

I loved the New Year Challenge, so I thought I would do another one!

There are 44 days until Valentine's day (6.3 weeks to help you figure out how much you want to lose)

I would like to lose 10 lbs by then.

Start: 172

Finish: 162

What do you say? Interested?

Count me in! The small goals really help to keep me on track.

My birthday is March 3 and I'm shooting for my 100 pound loss by then. I have 17.5 pounds until then. So, I will set my Valentine's Day goal for 13 down. I am 231 so that will put me at 218.

For those of you that didn't make goal and don't feel like doing another challenge, that is all the more reason to do it. Come on people, we've gone through a lot to get this far, so get those bodies movin'.

I need something to get me going!

I'm in for 1.5lbs per week which is about 10lbs. This is a stretch as I've gained recently and plateaued before that. When I do lose, its been an average of 1 lb per week.

Good luck everyone!!:tongue2:

Ok, since you said it like that :)

I'm in for 10#.

I get my FIFTH fill in a week so, hopefully, something will start moving. At least I didn't gain over the holidays!

      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!!

      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...
