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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
