Hi all,

Yeah me! I'm at a new low: 137.6: Just a little over 2.5 lbs. to goal. I'll be traveling again this week so I hope I stay down at this weight.

Hi, If it is not to late to join.... This will be my first challenge. My ticker does not reflect my current weight for I wanted to update it monthly. I am on bored to lose 20lbs. I am a little nervous for my mind can not even comprehend being under 200 it has been many many years. I can not even imagine.

02/24 CW 202 lbs.GOAL WEIGHT BY EASTER 182 lbs.

Yecats,

You are going to do great! I had a hard time saying my new lower weight correctly and writing it correctly when I was losing fast because it's so mind boggling. I still get a little confused sometimes. Can't wait to see your Onderland post in the success stories section!

Well, its been a tough week for me. I have a horse in severe kidney failure and been providing support care until his final days.

I did still manage a 3# loss.

Surgery Weight: 271

Current Weight: 145

Easter Goal Weight: 125 - also my final goal weight

Thank you Forensichick for starting this up. It really seems to help me feel accountable to have these challenges.

Ok, I exceeded my VDay goal by more than 10#, so I'm going to set the bar high again and hope for the best. I leave for Europe March 23 and returning ON Easter so it's hard to say where I will end up.

Surgery Weight: 271

Current Weight: 148

Easter Goal Weight: 125 - also my final goal weight

Woo hoo-- let's go guys and gals.... btw, how come I never see any guys in these challenges....?

Good morning! I have decided to join this challenge to help me focus! I am 13 months out from surgery - made goal in 10 but want to get back on track. My goal was 155 - got down to 144 but currently at 149 - I allow myself 5 pounds of "bounce back" and have seemed to stay within that 5 pounds for the past 3 months... but today at 149 I am at the top of those bounceback pounds and want to stay focused on doing the right things - So here I am. My goal will be to get back to 145.

Feb 27 - starting weight: 149.2 Goal 145

I am accountable for what goes in my mouth and how much I move my body! Good luck everyone!

Kim

I have lost about 2 pounds this week! Yay! Only about 10 and a half left to go before Easter. I really hope I can make it there without too many more stalls! I seem to stall more often and for longer the further i get out, just like my dr. said I would. I have ramped up my exercise some so I hope to be losing more in the next few weeks. good luck everyone!

I'm so close to goal... I need to do this! I've been cheating a little more than I should recently (I'll pass on the greasy junk foods... but chocolate is... my downfall...)

I must reach goal by Easter. Success is within reach!!!!

Okay peeps, we talked about it on the Valentines Day thread so I thought I would officially start the Easter challenge. Its approximately 7 weeks away so keep that in mind when you set your goals. The further I have gotten the smaller my goals so I dont get discouraged. The first 2 were 20 pounds each, the Valentines one was 15 so this one I am going to set at 13. I haven't made a goal yet but I only fall a few pounds short. Anyways, here are my stats for this one...

Everybody join in and lets motivate each other! We can do this!!!!

Hi everyone. I would love to join the Easter challenge. My sleeve is scheduled on 03/01. What would be a good goal for me? I like to push myself but also do not want to over do it. Thanks!

Welcome! Good luck on your upcoming surgery tomorrow! You will lose weight very quickly at first after surgery (I think I lost 20 lbs the first 20 days), so a higher goal won't be bad depending on your stats. I can't see signatures on the mobile app, so I can't really give you an estimate based on whatever weight you may be.

It all varies, but it's up to you. You will lose a lot of weight, regardless of what your Easter goal is :)

I probably made my goal weight too low. I'm just basing it on how I have been losing.

      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.
