164 today STILL. This is the longest stall I've had since my journey started. My face is looking thinner though and I have had to tighten my belt a notch so I'm hoping it's just because I have really stepped up the exercise. Hopefully I will have some better news next week!

Congrats back2barb - so close to your first goal!! My weight loss has been a grand total of 0lb in the last ten days! I have really kicked up my exercise recently though so I'm hoping it is something to do with that. Otherwise I am just plodding along and hoping the scale starts moving again soon - I am down 76lb and hoping to lose another 40 or so

164 today.i have about 30lb to go to get to a healthy BMI and I think it's going to go sloooooowly!

Couldn't imagine life without one of your challenges now Bea, so I am definitely in! Start weight: 165lb (75lb pound lost so far - that feels like a pretty good milestone!) Goal weight: 155lb.

After stalling a lot in this challenge, I weighed in today at 166 - 3lb lighter than my goal weight. Thanks again for doing these challenges, Bea! X

Thanks! Never thought anyone would use that word to describe me!!

Sleeved October 5th - 72lb down! Will try and find a before picture but here is me as of today

Friday morning check in! 167 today. I was 166 yesterday morning but that pound has come back. Regardless, it has taken me under my challenge goal and I am now only 1 bmi point off the 'overweight' category!! Yay!

I have noticed through this actually that we almost seem to be weight loss twins! Congratulations!! X

Broken my stall with a 4lb loss this week! Takes me to 170lb which is a loss of 70lb since the start of my pre-op. yaaaaay. Again, thanks for doing this Bea

Weight today - 174. Going reaaaaaally slowly at the moment! Argh!

I'm still at 175 this week! If I hadn't been tracking my weight here, I would have been miserable about not losing this week, but I lost 4lb last week so I was ready for a pause! Definitely lost inches this week though, bought a dress a couple of weeks ago in a UK size 14 (US size 10) and it was too tight to wear out. Wore it to the pub last night and it fit comfortably. Need some new work uniform trousers too as the ones I got 2 weeks ago are now too big! Hope everyone else has a good weigh in day!

My skin looked amazing for a few days after surgery! I just assumed that because I had been on a saline drip, I was just really well hydrated. 3 months post-op and it's awful now !

65lb down as of this morning - from 240 to 175. Sleeved 10/5/13. Joined the gym this week and am planning on starting swimming 3 times a week so we'll see what effect that has on my weight loss. I'm expecting that it will slow down my loss but hopefully make me a little less flabby!

Morning everybody! Hope your weeks have all gone well and we get some good losses today! My stats: Start of challenge - 179lb Week 1 weigh in - 175lb!! 4lb loss which I wasn't expecting at all! I think this will probably mean I don't lose anything next week, though! Finally joined a gym yesterday (3 months post op - oops) and went before work yesterday. I don't know what effect the exercise will have on my weight, but I am going to try and concentrate on body composition now I think.

That's amazing! Well done - I bet you feel incredible?!

Current weight - 179lb Goal weight - 169lb

Happy New Year everybody!! Just weighed in at 179lb - 3 pound under goal! Very happy, especially with all the rubbish I've eaten over Christmas! Fingers crossed for everyone else weighing today!

Bea, you look fab!!

Just weighed myself (as my surgery was on a Saturday so this is my normal weigh in day) and I am now 180lb!! Can't believe it - my target for New Year was 182 so I have surpassed that! Thank you Bea and everyone else on this thread for keeping me going - not sure I would have been so successful without this thread keeping me focused!

Count me in please!!

Merry Christmas everybody! As of today I am 57 pounds down! Started my journey at a uk size 20/22 (US 16/18), today my brother bought me some clothes in a uk size 14 (US 10) and they fit!! Here is a picture of me in my Christmas outfit! I almost look good! Can't wait to see how I look by next Christmas

After my stall last week, I am checking in today at 183lb. 1 more to go for my New Year goal! I'm so glad I'm part of this challenge, it's definitely going to keep me focused over the next week! Thank you so much for doing this, Bea!

So after my 4lb loss last week, this week I am still stuck at 186 - nothing lost! I am 12 weeks post op this week and hope this is just another stall like I suffered with and got through at 3 weeka! Trying not to panic!!
