Hey All, I hope everyone had a great week! My weight as of 1/16/17 is 178.8 lbs! Yayyy! I'm so excited. And my goal weight for this challenge is 165 lbs!

Hey all! I totally needed this. Everyone has me super pumped. I had the gastric bypass in October 2015 with my starting wt of 278 lbs. It took me a little over a year and I got down to 166 lbs which is my lowest wt thus far. I felt amazing at 166 lbs then life happened and all my bad habits crept back into my life and I gained 20 lbs in one year. When I went to my PCP she said "wow you've gained 20 lbs in a year, I don't want you to be like all my other patients that had the gastric bypass and gained all their weight back". That statement kind of killed me and made me fill so ashamed but I'm happy she said it because something has to change. So I got back on track on 1/2/17!!! I'm planning on eating low carb, working out 3-4 times per week with a personal trainer and make this forum a daily must read to keep me motivated!!! Good luck to everyone! 1/2/17: Wt 186.3 1/8/17: Wt 181.3

Congrats!!!

Congrats! You're looking amazing!!! Keep going sister.

Holy Toledo! That's awesome!!!!!! Great job! Hey steph! Can I change my goal weight to 159. I'm going to try to get to the 150's. We'll see how it goes! ???? And thanks so much for doing this! I've been out of control for the past two months and now I'm getting back on track because of this challenge. Thanks again!

166.7 so excited!!! ???????????????????????? Sorry actually 166.3

No sadly when I first posted last week I weighed 176.8 but I thought I would weigh myself again Monday morning for an accurate starting weight and I gained 1.2. So my official starting weight is 178. Thanks for checking!!!

Sorry to be a pain but can I change my CW to 178. Thank you!

Count me in! I'm going to really try and get to goal this time. CW: 176.6 GW: 163

I would have been sooo mad! You're def not being a baby

I eat a salad almost everyday. I haven't heard of anyone having problems with eating a salad but everyone is different.

Hey this is my first weigh in since the challenge started. Sorry I was dodging the scale the entire month of July. I'm back on track now and ready to get these 10 lbs off!!!

CW: 174.3

CW: 175.9 Goal Weight: 160

I'm in. When's the first weigh-in?

I understand completely. I'm 8.5 months post-op and the more foods I introduce into my diet, the more I'm tempted to eat bad things. They order out ALL the time at my work and sometimes I can resist and sometimes I can't. If I don't resist then I just make myself pay for it later at the gym.

I drink a cup of coffee every day and drink alcohol probably twice a week. I'm 8 months post-op and I've 92 lbs. I've lost 92 lbs and feel great

Congrats!

Congratulations !

I'm 7 months out and I usually keep my carbs under 50g, my protein between 70-100 a day and my calories between 650-800. These parameters have helped me lose the weight but after doing this for months sometimes my weight slows down. When this happen, I usually eat whatever I want for a day or two then get back to my normal routine. I usually lose 5lbs the next week. The cheat days seem to shock my body and helps the scale to start moving again. Don't know if this will work for you but Good Luck!

Girl this is just what I needed. Thanks for sharing!!!

You look amazing! Keep werkin' it girl!!!

Congrats and you look amazing!

Wow you look amazing!

Thanks for the info. Can't wait until I hit goal so I can start to sculpt my body.
