Valentine's Day Wt loss Challenge 2010

HI ALL,

The short term wt loss challenges have had great success so I want to keep them going.

This next challenge will end on Valentines Day, I know the next big holiday is Christmas but thats only a month after Thanksgiving plus I know this time of year is hard for wt loss.

SO the official start day will be 11-27-09 and the end date will be 2-14-10

I will get someone to make another spreadsheet and when that is complete please go ahead and add your info and we'll get the party started!!!!!! GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY TURKEY DAY!

Lisa, I understand your problem.:blush: Ive been up/down every few days but at 220 # for a few days. Stomach is queasy, so cannot get a fill until February. At least I am not gaining...:)

Checking in!

Reached my goal today! I'm in Goal Limbo and the weight loss has really slowed down. That last 1/2 pound took forever!!! But today...ta da...I'm finally NORMAL!!! Time to update the ticker!!!;)

Well, I lost 4.2 lbs this week. (I really lost 6.2 but I had gained 2 lbs before I got my fill)

I have 9.2 lbs to go for my goal. Not sure if I will make it but I am going to try!

Oh my! Only 3 pounds in 10 days. I was "ahead" on making my goal, now there is no room for error. It's been a hectic and stressful period of time and now it's time to get back on track with the exercise.

I am joining in! I have had 2 really BAD weeks. I have that 10 lbs. Thinking of getting a fill - I am going to try to get in on Mon or Tues. Until then.....NO CARBS....exercise...goal here we come!

Good job on your weight loss everyone!

Band_Groupie..good job on your weight loss and congrats on being NORMAL :-)

I have 2 lbs to go; however, I have to fight my head hunger first. Before band, I normally don't like sweets or chips; however, after band that is all I want. It does not help when you not at your sweet spot yet too. I am going to call in and see if I can get a fill because the last time I got only 0.1 cc due to tightness why on my cycle.

Sorry I have not been posting but life has been crazy we have decided to move to NC, in 9 weeks so I am running around trying to find people to move our stuff and tell everyone we are moving.

I got my first fill this week and I am so glad, I really needed it. I have about 12 more pnds to loose to reach my V-day goal. I am hoping I make it but if I don't then I don't.:unsure:

I don't know if I can make it. I still have 12 lb to go and I've been stalled. I am going to stick with my plan and maybe kick the working out up another notch so I will give it my all!

4.8 lbs to go, I have two weeks! I hope I can do it!

Hi'All, I am stillin it. Have waffled at 220 # but get a fill this week. I won't make my goal, but am doing better.
