Fall Weight Loss Challenge



Recommended Posts

I'm in - my first challenge, I am sooo excited. Ok, starting weight 314 would like to lose 25 lbs in 10 weeks, ending weight 289 - wow that is less than I weighed when I got married 11 years ago! I will post a current pic as soon as I figure out how to do that.

It's Sunday evening, in Australia, but I'm not going to be around tomorrow to post, as I'm going to Sea World for a couple of days (haven't decided if I'll take the laptop or not), so thought I'd do it now.

Weight this morning - 93kgs/205lbs

So down 1kg/2lbs since last Monday. I'm sure I'll pile on a few during the next few days away though LOL.

FIRST WEIGH IN SINCE JOINING CHALLENGE

Starting weight 225

Todays weight 223

Lost ```````````2 pounds!

Total to meet goal set for this challenge 18 pounds~

Oh my gosh, I think I hit another goal today~ That goal was to weigh the same or less than my father which hasn't happened in a very very very long time!!!! Today however is the day where I think I matched his weight!!! I will call him in a little while to confirm that, but EHA I think I did it~ Is this what is called an NSV?? YEEEAAAAAAAHH ~~

I guess my friend chasing me with that snake did have some benefits..ehehehehe

This will be my first weight loss challenge since being banded. I am going to aim for twenty pounds, and will be happy with 15 (I've not had a first fill yet). I will try to post a picture once I figure out how to. Good luck to all.

This morning I'm 253. Yep, that is a 2 lb GAIN for me. :) Wish I could say it was all muscle, but I'm nearly positive it has something to do with ice cream, chocolate, oh yeah..and Mexican food!!! Thankfully I'm headed to the doc's office today for a fill which should help with my restriction, and always gives me a psychological boost as well. I was scheduled for one Aug. 19th, but rescheduled because I had good restriction and had lost about 13lbs in the 3 wks since my last fill. I am a bit nervous that I have a leak, as my fills seem to last only 3-4 weeks, then nothing! Of all 6 cc's I should have in my band, my doc was only able to get 2.5 cc's out at my last visit.

Great job Keri, Kim, Loulou, Porclndoll, and Parvathi! Keep up the good work!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
