Easter Challenge Anyone?



Recommended Posts

I want in!!! The challenges help me alot too!!! I just finished the Valentine's Day challenge and would like to join this one. I want to lose 17 lbs by Easter or at least by my 1st Bandiversary on 04/14/10!!!

It's gonna be hard! Those last 20'ish always are. If I don't make it it'll be ok because, I'm still VERY close to my goal and I feel great!!!

Okay, I'm in too now that the Valentine's Day Challenge is over. I'll add a new ticker tomorow.

My current weight as of today is 248.4. My goal weight loss is 18.4 pounds, which would put me at 230. I can't remember when I weighed that low. So that will put me at just over 2.5 pounds per week to lose as of today. Which means I best start busting my butt and getting my exercising in.

I did an experiment this week and didn't exercise and only lost 1.6 pounds. So I definitely have to add in the exercise if I want to meet my new goal.

I'd love in on this! I'm around 188 now, and would love to lose 20 pounds by Easter. That would put me in at 168. =)

I just added a mini-goal ticker to my siggy to lose 15 pounds in time for my friend's wedding on 4/2 so I may as well consider that my Easter goal as well since they are only two days apart. Count me in!

Now that my valentines challenge is over I am ready to set an easter goal. I think 20 is a good goal for me. That would put me at 212. I have been averaging 3 pounds a week. I have 2 fills between now and then so maybe I could actually be in onederland by then who knows. Good luck to you all.

My weightloss has been slow but I'm still seeing the difference and know I can do it. Not sure I'll make my challenge weight but I'll be close.

I am still at 160. Same as last Monday, however, I lost 6 lbs in the 1st 2 weeks so I am still on track. I am going to get a fill on Thursday and hopefully get back to losing.

Gaaacccckkkk! I am exactly the same as last week 189... I better ramp up my excercise this week and get back on track with my eating... I know what my downfall was... I made fudge for my man on Thursday for Valentines day and have been eating about two pieces a day since... Okay, So That was also the day I Started my Cycle so I WAS TOTALLY craving chocolate... I'm at the end of my cycle so I can get back on track from that now too... This was the first time I have craved chocolate during that (TOM) in about 4 months so I guess I can't complain too loudly.... This week I will try to make up and lose two weeks worth... So 3 pounds, so Buh Bye to my body!

I want to jump in! I am a tax accountant so my goal has been to get under 200 by April 15th. If I do the Easter Challange that will help me stay on track. This morning I was up 2 lbs from Friday, but I am hoping a lot of that will come off as quickly as it came on :biggrin: I didn't get to work out this weekend, so I wasn't able to offset the extra calories I ate :) Hopefully, a Monday weigh in will help me stay on track.

This morning I was 215, but I am going w/ a starting weight of 213 b/c that is what I weighed on Friday and I need to get those off plus an additional 1-2 lbs this week!

I just finished the Valentine challenge, so I would like to join the Easter. It helps me to keep on track, when I have to check in every week. I would like to lose 17lbs by then, that would put me at 180.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
