"Shrinko De Mayo" Weight Loss Challenge

Hello everyone,

I decided to start a new weight loss challenge for May 5th since the current "April Fools" weight loss challenge is less than 2 weeks away (seriously, where did March go? Anyone? :tt2:)

Please post here what weight loss you would like to achieve by May 5, 2009 (approx. 6 weeks from the date of this post). On average, Bandsters lose 1-2 lbs per week, but base your goal personally.

I love being motivated, so let's start the Summer off with a bang and a heckuva lot less fat!!

I am down 5 pounds and 5 pounds away from my goal.

I am down a total of 7 pounds this is a lot harder than I thought it would be.

I was down 3 on Friday. 2 from my Shrinko De Mayo goal! Hoping to hit 60lbs lost by the 6th of April (4mo banniversary!)

one week to go and I am 2.8 lbs under my goal of 13 pounds:thumbup:

YAY! I surpassed my Cinco De Mayo goal of fifteen pounds! :(

I lost 16 pounds in three weeks. Of course I did this because I had waaaay too much restriction, and could barely eat. :)

Yes, I am a very bad girl!

Hugs,

I am down a total of 12 lbs. I am only 3 lbs away from my Cinco de Mayo goal!

Congratulations everyone!!!

As unbelievable as it sounds even to me I am down 23 lbs for "Cinco De Mayo" when I thought 15 was going to be hard to do. I am so happy. Of course I also just had a fill on Tuesday so my restriction is great.:ohmy:

I hope this momentum stays with me :thumbup:

Passed my Shrinko Goal of 5lbs (only been doing it 2 weeks!) Down 4 this week for a grand total of 61lbs gone!! and down 6 for Shrinko!!

You all are shrinking away so fast and keeping me busy :thumbup:

I've updated the list as of Friday May first. We are doing GREAT and you should all be SUPER proud of your accomplishments! I've finally lost another pound, but am going to fall short of my goal. But it's OK because I feel and look GREAT!! Keep up the good work-4 days to go! We have lost a combined total of 253.9 pounds!!! Amazing!!

I'm still 7 pounds from my goal, 15 pounds maybe was too much, but I've been at a STALL the past 3 weeks, and when I went for a fill only got .5 cc (will go again next week, but it's after Cinco de mayo.
