Halloween (Oct. 31) - What will you Weigh?



Recommended Posts

Congrats on being in Onederland! I am 1 pound away from reaching my Halloween goal of 199 and ONEDERLAND!!!!! So hard to believe.

Congrats again.

Sheila

What a great week! Had a stall last week. This week I dropped 7#- yeah!! AND.... I'm in onderland to boot!! 10# by Halloween is still pretty aggressive, but I have a hunch I will get close- gonna have a bunch of things going on next week that will have me doing a TON of walking. So we will see how it goes.

Thank you so much for the kind words. The stalls do get frustrating but having lost 76# in basically 3 1/2 months would never have been a possibility before. I know the sleeve will help me once I get to goal, but I have yo-yo'd so many times in life I worry I will become complacent and begin the yo-yo again. Since I told so few people, most just assume I'm on another downward spin of the yo-yo and while they are happy to see me loose weight, it does help I don't have to explain too much "how" I'm doing it. :-)

You are doing great also. It feels so good to see the scale start with a "1" - you are so close!

Congrats on being in Onederland! I am 1 pound away from reaching my Halloween goal of 199 and ONEDERLAND!!!!! So hard to believe.

Congrats again.

Update:

Current weight 245! Surpassed my Halloween goal! Still 29 days to go. I'll make a New goal to 230. Wish me luck!

SW-----CW-----GW-----Pounds to goal

229---215-----210-----------5

Still on the way--I was seriously hoping to exceed my goal, but it looks like I'm going to be pushing just to make it! That's okay--I've been at 215 for three days, and if my pattern holds, in a day or two I'll start dropping and will drop around a pound a day for a couple, then plateau again. I lose in this strange stair-step pattern, but as long as my weight is going the right direction, I'm all okay with that!!

Good luck, eveyone! We're in the home stretch now!!

:rolleyes: Woot Woot!!!!!

Goal Reached: 199lbs!!!!!!

Never thought I would see a 1 in front of the other two numbers again.

From my heaviest weight ever, I have lost 103 pounds.

When I reach 191lbs I will have lost 100 pounds from the start of this journey on November 30, 2010.

Doing the happy dance here in my office chair!!!!!!!!!!

Close to goal. Some how being in the 180's is a bigger deal to me than making Onederland. I guess because the last diet where I lost more than 10lbs was 10 yeas ago and I only got down to 197.

Yeah Yeah This morning I finally broke 190!!! Guess I should set a new goal for halloween Maybe 186.5 sounds good.

I have about 5 pounds to make my goal! I am thrilled but scared since my weight loss is slowing now. I hope I make it! I only lost 1.5 pounds since last wednesday but I didnt think I was going to do that. I just kept staying the same everyday. Finally this morning, I was down some. I just hope it stays down and I keep losing. Good luck guys! We are going to make 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.
