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



Recommended Posts

I'm changing my goal weight from 180 to 185, so my goal will be 15 lbs lost. I don't want to set myself up for disappointment. My weight loss has slowed (still lingering from that dreaded 3 week stall), but I of course will be thrilled to reach 180 lbs :). I haven't been in the 180's in 4 years, and I'd be sooo happy regardless.

So, here's my modified Halloween goal...

SN..............Starting Wt........Current.......Goal.......Lbs to Goal

Kala.................200.2.............196.8...........185.............11.8

Do you think this is possible? I never dreamed that I could be in onederland this early. I just had my sleeve this week but I rocked my pre-op diet and lost 40 lbs, so I'm thinking that 23 pounds in over a month is possible this early out, but at the same time it seems a bit much. Well, anyways. I'm going to leave it and if I don't make I'll stick to my original goal of being in onederland by my birthday in February :)

I think it's definitely possible. I lost over 20lbs my first month with the sleeve, and I started at the same weight you are now.

Another slow week. I had to travel for work and was in all day meetings where they catered food non-stop. I have to admit I ate some things I shouldn't have and the days were so long I wasn't able to get in any exercise. They had Cookies, donuts, pastries, oh my god!!! I kind of feel lucky I didn't gain any weight.

Love those nice round numbers. ;) huge NSV for me last night.....I fit into the "goal jeans" I bought more than a year ago! Size 8's!! Now I know all about vanity sizing and yes, I know it probably isn't an 8 from years ago.....but I can now fit into 3 things with an 8 on the tag so I'm counting it! Lol! Either way, these jeans always looked SO tiny to me and they fit my sister who has always been "tiny" to me. So vanity sizing or not, they are exactly where I have always wanted to be. :) :) :)

I had a good week. I am down 4.4 pounds from last weeks weigh in for halloween challenge! Woop! I stayed 205 for about 6 days and then it finally started creeping down. Hooray for me! I am wearing my 16 jeans daily now with no discomfort! They are snug but not too tight. Its an awesome feeling to be wearing them again! Now for the 14's....

The day I joined this challenge I was at three weeks post-op and worried I might be facing a stall... I was right. I spent two weeks at the same weight. Finally, the scale has started to move again and I'm down 3 lbs. I still feel like I can reach my Halloween goal of 165.

The best NSV yet was buying a size 12 pair of jeans yesterday. I wanted to announce it from the roof tops but I settled for just calling my honey ( who has no clue about woman's sizes) and then calling my daughter who could comprehend the gravity of this event. LOL

Having pretty standard losses--nothing for a week, then a pound a day for a few days. I lose in stair-steps. I really, really want to get to my Halloween goal, since at that point I will be 20 pounds from my overall goal AND I'll finally be smaller than my husband (he keeps losing just ahead of me--turkey!--only kidding, I love him dearly).

Good luck everyone!!

      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.
