Star1221 270 Posted July 5, 2012 Woo! Hoo! My body held on to the 200 lb mark for a few weeks so don't get discouraged if it happens to you too. You will get there' date=' just keep at it.[/quote'] It's time for my next stall anyways lol. Almost at 3 months. Went through a 3 1/2 week stall during the fourth challenge. Thanks for the encouragement. We got this :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenisaMartim4 369 Posted July 5, 2012 My 35th birthday is on Labor Day. So I guess mine will be a birthday challenge too. I would love, love, love to make it to onederland, but my weight loss has greatly slowed down. I guess I will say 20# and if I can get more than that, it will be great.

Forensikchic 528 Posted July 5, 2012 I hope this is my last challenge of the losing phase of my sleeve. I am 10 pounds away from my goal weight. I only lost 2.5 pounds the last challenge but it was only 5 weeks long and I stalled for 4 of it. Since I have 8 weeks+ in this one, I will go for my goal weight 135. I want to be there by my surgiversary but sadly, I have stalled too much to make that goal a reality. I want to get there by Labor day and if I do, it will be the first challenge I will achieve. I have been in each one, starting with Halloween last year and have yet to actually achieve one!!! I will make this last one! I will!!!!!! SW-145 GW-135 Lets do this!!!

jhansen71 257 Posted July 5, 2012 I've been at 202 for a few Weeks and it is so frustrating. I can't wait to hit the 100s. I thought it was just me! I have been hovering around this 209/208 for a while now and am getting really irritated! I would get to 202, then back up to 204, then down to 201, back up to 203, then down and up. It's the only time my weight has done this so far was the 200 mark. My body was just fighting to stay around there. I guess it was used to being over 200 for so long that it didn't want to let go, but eventually it did. Thank goodness! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
