Alittle too over drastic with my fourth of July goal. I missed by 9 lbs. However. I still feel I can do this and set my goal within reach. This goal gives me 9 weeks at a rate of 2.44 lbs. a week.

Although I didn't make the last goal, I am determined to step up the exercise and make the Labor Day goal. I started tracking my food intake again so I hope it helps me keep a closer eye on my calories, carbs, and Proteins.

Well, I missed 4th of july by 2 lbs-but I lost 23 lbs for the last goal. So, I'm setting a similar goal this time.

SW- 272

CW- 206

Goal-185

lbs to goal- 21

I KNOW i can do this. Even when I slow down I generally lose about 10 lbs a month. Plus, I'm going to up my workouts for the next 2 months. I can't even imagine being under 200 lbs and to think that it could be me in the next 2-3 weeks.. INTENSE. So excited though.

Hi-

I do not know how to make a real guess to my weight in 60 days...

I lost 29 pounds the three weeks after surgery and 30 pounds the 13 weeks prior...

after surgery I had great weight loss daily and then after 20 pounds my body stalled for 5 days..

now it is 2# every three days, though one day I see nothing and the next nothing then bamm! down again...

I usually suggest folks taking in the last 4-6 weeks average weight loss per week and making that your goal, give or take a few pounds. Men typically lose MUCH faster than us ladies - so I think if you upped your goal a little bit you'd do just fine. :) Good luck!!

Hi all,

My goal for Labor Day is based on losing 2 lbs. per week, which is what I've been averaging since week 4 post-surgery.

The Labor Day Goal also includes reaching three mini-goals:

1. Getting down to the 180s. Haven't seen that weight since around 200.

2. Becoming Overweight, not Obese (185 lbs)

3. Weighing less than my husband: (<182)

Labor Day Goal:

SW-197...............CW-197...............Labor Day goal-179

Checking in early....

SN..............219........213.......199....... 14

I may have to revisit my goal. My 4th goal was actually a July 17th goal since I started late and that's the hubby's birthday. I'll see where I am (hopefully past my current goal) then I'll set another Labor Day goal.

I failed miserable for my 4th of July goal. My body stalled out like crazy and other health issues got in the way. I didn't gain, but I didn't lose anything in a month. So I'm back at it.

      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.
