HAHA, thanks Im glad someone found it humorous...lol

What do you think Jane you wanna start a Donut Day challenge when this one is over?

I dont know about everyone else but this has been my first challenge and it has really made me push a little harder and watch what I eat a little better so it would be great if we could keep these going...

I dont think I am going to be able to drop 4 pounds in a week and a half at this point. I feel pretty good about that though, I think i can get within 2 pounds of it. It is not like I am crying into my steel-cut oatmeal about it I am super pleased all in all!

Hi all: I've been stuck for a week and FINALLY got my TOM with a vengeance today so I have a change to make it. I get tighter at this time of month and usually drop a few with Water weight. Don't know if I will do 5 pounds in a week as that is almost unheard of for me on the band, but if I can do it any time it is in the spring exercising compared with a monster period. Just five more.

Others have looked for a new challenge as they have liked this one so much. There is a July 4th challenge, but I agree there might be an intermediate chanllenge that can keep us focused. I have really liked this one; love the chart. Nick

I may not make the 200 lbs I hoped for, but I am very happy with the progress, at 210! Clothes are fitting sooooo much better, all those pants that I bought at a size 16 and some 14's (so long ago), well, they fit pretty darn good, some loose! Happy with the April'Fools weight loss. I will try for 205 by the date!:frown: Good luck to us all, it's getting close to showdown:tt2:

pvtash, You have still lost weight- that's the important part. Any loss is a win!!.and the non scale victories( i.e looser clothes) are often more thrilling than the scale!! I had to be reminded the weight loss will eventually average 1# /week. So you are doing fine!!

I've lost 8lbs and I'm thrilled about it, but will not be able to make my goal. Oh well, I'm super happy with my loss to date and have started a May challenge as well. PS..I'm down for the donut challenge :rolleyes2:

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
