Thank you dorrie and everyone else for the encouraging words through this challenge. I feel so blessed to have all of you in my life and on this journey with me.

It is Saturday the day before Easter I have been working my butt off getting things ready for the family bbq tomorrow (20 people) I love gatherings and seeing the family all together.

I stepped on the scale this morning and almost fell of it when it read 260.4lbs, so thrilled it finally moved. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Easter to all and my your day be filled with love, joy and happiness.

Happy Easter, everyone! I missed my goal by 1.8 pounds. Not too far off goal. I'm still happy. I have appreciated having this challenge and all of you to report in with each week. Thanks for being with me on this journey. Hope you all have a wonderful Easter today.

I surpassed my goal by one pound. I hate that the weight loss has slowed down so drastically but at least I'm still going down. Besides, my skin seems to be keeping up with me for the most part and I don't have a ton of loose skin everywhere, just a little here and there. I'll take the slow pace if it means not needing plastic surgery once I reach goal. I just hope it stays that way and I don't wake up one day with droopy skin all over!

Well girls, we have reached the end of this challenge. My goal was to lose 12.8 pounds and I weighed in today at 155.3. I am so close! I lost 11.5 pounds in this challenge and so I am happy about it. I have yet to make a challenge but I get closer each time. I had fun with it and it kept me motivated so I am glad we did it. Congratulations to everyone who reached or surpassed their goals or came close! Close does count in horseshoes, handgranades and weight loss challenges.

I am making another challenge starting tomorrow. It will end Memorial Day. That gives us about 7 weeks (like last time). I am going to set my goal to losing 10 pounds this time and maybee I will hit it. That will be 145 and I will be considered a normal weight. Who's with me??? I will be starting that thread today. We did a great job!

I am happy with my 13 lb loss! :)

I'm with Dorrie - "Bring it on!" I'm just 2 pounds from my final goal, but I want to lose a little more than that because I'd like to have a little buffer while working out the maintenance phase of things. I'll probably try to lose 5 pounds between now and Memorial Day. Not much, I know, but it's really slow going these days... These challenges help keep me motivated.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
