I weigh in weekly and plan on posting here to keep me focused. If anybody else wants to post their losses on fridays with me feel free. I figure the more the merrier and we can cheer each other on as we start climbing back down the scale! Personally I find Fridays help keep me focused over the weekends.

Today I am down 1.2lbs from last Friday. Still not on my preop diet yet but am making better choices. I am currently 313 even and hoping to get down to 299.9 (lol) before surgery 4/21. *fingers crossed*

Great idea!!

I dont know what I weigh as I have scales. As of 10 days ago I was 137.4kg on surgeons scales. I am day 10 of pre-op diet, and I bought some electronic scales today and I am 5.8kg down 131.6kg!!! YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!

I'd love to join the friday weigh ins, it will definiately help to keep me accountable. My weight yesterday was 260.5!

My last recorded weight was 130.4 at the surgeon's office on Wednesday. I will weigh again on Friday for you (its Friday night here now but I am full of liquid and bloated from surgery!)

Weighed in this morning and am down .6lbs. It makes me so frustrated because it's not more but then I remember what my week included. An emergency trip out of town, about 10 hours in the car driving, 3 dinners out at restaurants, medieval times w/friends, and going to the movies. I also only exercised 1 day. SOOOO when I factor in all that I had going on I am happy to see that it moved in the right direction but still .6 seems like a token not a "real" loss if that makes any sense.

How was your week?

math error lost .2 more than i thought!! woohoo

Day three of my pre-op and I'm down 9 pounds! Today's weigh in was 248

This will be fun to do I can't weigh today because I don't have a scale at home but last week I was 226 and I know on Tuesday this week I was 222. So next week I will give you an accurate reading.

231 this morning. 3 more pounds until I lose my second 10# head! No pre-op diet for me, but I'm going to start something on my own next week...I can't get behind all you fast losers...and I've only started dieting last month!

OK count me in.

I was 328 (ouch:w00t:) at my surgical consult, didn't do to well dropping until recently lost about 10 during the fall and then we started the 50 Million Pound Challenge a couple months ago. Now due to trying to keep off carbs presurgery I'm not following that but am following a little bit of a couple things and trying to keep the white carbs out.

Today I was 295 I wanted to be below 300 before surgery now lets see if I can get down to 290 by next Friday (surgery day). I think the 2 day Clear liquids before surgery and the stuff I have to drink the night before could make that goal a reality.:confused:

Hey guys

Well it's friday here in little old NZ, and weighing in today at 128.7kg or 283lb is Lingling. That's total loss of 8.7kg or 19lb.

I thought it would be cool to work out how much weight we have lost as a group and cheer each other on - so have made a little spreadsheet, anyone can join - this is just the people who have contributed so far, and I will do a new one after everyone has posted each week. You just have to all tell me your pre-pre-op diet weight and of course this weeks weight so that we can work out total weight lost!! yayay!!xx

I leave early in the morning for surgery so I'm posting tonight. I've been on 2 protien shakes and one meal a day since Sunday and for the last 2 days (Wed and Thur) I've been on clear liquids and had to drink stuff to help clean things out but I'm at 288 so far tonight. I see LingLing's spread sheet has a high weight column at my surgical consult in October I was 328.

well i was 315 back last week Wednesday now i am 302... so im happy liq_diet is working

226.5 this morning. Down 4.5, not bad for no pre-op diet. I'm officially below the 35 BMI now and have lost another 10# head...but I'm waiting until after this Easter weekend to make it official. Leaving for our trip soon...wish me luck with being with my foodie family and all that candy!

down 1.6lbs this week so i'm at 310.8 (i think i might have to edit once i go and look lol i forget...it's early!)

Yay!!

Everyone is doing so awesomely!!

The following people please tell me their "pre-preopdiet" weight/highest (so long as highest wasn't a year ago or anything! since we're documenting this part of the weight loss journey!)

- BandGroupie

- Sissy

- Celtic Angel

- Hannah

That way I can calculate how much we have all lost so far as a group!!!!

Sissy, Celtic and Mrs Mitch we are still waiting on this friday's weight too!!!!!
