I didn't make my goal weight but I'm still happy with the progress that I have made even when I went on a cruise for a week. I hope everyone is happy with their results...When is the next challenge?

Mine wasn't messed with either.

Merry Christmas to me! I plateaued for 2.5 weeks. I journal EVERYTHING I eat and went just over 900 calories once, but all other days stayed under 800! I was getting frustrated to say the least. Got on the scale today for the first time in 3 days (I was out of town) and I dropped 3 lbs! YaY!

I am still one pound away from my goal ... 2 days to go so hopefully I will lose one more ... but after a frustrating 2.5 weeks, I'll take this weight with a smile!

Yeah. I have gained and lost the same pound for two weeks. So I need to get vigilant on jornalling my food as well. Been hunkered down for two days following our first snow on Christmas since 1947. I was able to make it home from work Sat night without too many problems and woke to 8 inches on Sunday. I am so glad I did not get stuck at work. Not sure about where you live, but everything closes here on Christmas, even McDonalds.

Well I liked 3 pounds making my goal, but that's okay because I really enjoyed the challenge. Thanks Amanda for coming up with it and hopefully you will come up with another one soon. If you do I'm certainly in. I was really surprised that I actually lost weight over the Christmas holidays, but I was determined to get back on track and that last fill really made a difference. Again thanks all, enjoyed doing this with all of you.

Congratulations to everybody who made their Christmas goal. I missed mine by one pound, but feel good about the loss that I have. Funny how these new weights that I reach are such a thrill and then as soon as I hit them I can't wait to move the scale again. I hope that everybody participating in the New Years challenge is on target and doing well too.

Hi everyone..congrats to everyone who hit their goal. I hit a bit of a blip in the last couple of weeks. I found the challenge motivating tho and loved entering my week each week. It would be great if someone with the necessary skills could create a valentine's day challenge spreadsheet....any takers please?

I would love to do a valentines day challenge to get back on track. Please keep me posted if someone creates one. I have no idea how to start one.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
