July 4th Challenge - 120 days



Recommended Posts

For all those that enjoyed the VD goal challenge, here is a longer 120 day challenge. Set a goal for yourself to lose by July 1, 2009. I weigh 340.1 today and my goal will be 30 to 40 pounds for anything for my between 300 and 310.00.

Post your goal, post your progress and stay on thread with your ups (successes) and downs (fallen off point). I will be here for you and you need to be here for me.

Set a goal that is a bit unrealistic yet attainable. Something that will push you to exercise, stay on the food regiment and something that will get you going and stay going.

For me, I haven't been below 300 pounds in over a century so this challenge is huge for me. When I achieve this goal, my first 100 pounds plus will be gone forever and half of my total weight goal done....finished..

Join me as we strive to reach our goals and lose this weight forever!!

peace.................

Well guys, I will be banded on 3/16/09. I just started my pre-op diet today. Since this is a longer challenge, would it be okay if I joined in?

I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs on the pre-op and a total of 30 by the end of the challenge.

Ok, I'm in. I also am training to do a triathalon. No, not an ironman, but a begginer sprint. 1/4 mile swim/13mile bike/3 mile run. I'm just looking to finish.

      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... :(
