I run my first 10k this upcoming Saturday. I have two more sessions on couch to 10k. I'm looking forward to achieving that goal.

Good luck everyone on making headway to their goal and congrats to those that have met their goal early. See ya next week!

Hi all! I'm a day early because tomorrow is the first day of school! I'm looking forward to meeting my students.

So, I dropped one pound this week. I was hoping for the magic three again- no such luck. BUT- I ran my first official 10k in one hour and twelve minutes! The course had hills and I RAN the WHOLE time!! I'm extremely proud of myself. (see pic below) I finished couch to 10K this week as well. :) just three pounds to go...

Good luck everyone! I hope u have a fantastic week!

I gained another pound this week! I am very bloated and just fat feeling... I have not ate my best the past two weeks so I am going to start tracking again and lowering my carbs, one more time. I am only 5 pounds from goal, where I was 3 pounds from goal... I am going backward but I am hoping its just temporary.. I have not eaten super bad or anything. I just let my carbs come back up to normal and I realize now that having those carbs up there around 60-80 makes me gain or maintain.. I have to have them super low to lose any weight now that I am this thin. Wish me luck! I have two weeks and I am going for Gold!

Today I made my goal goal of 123.8 normal BMI. My next goal is 121 which is half of me. I am in no hurry, actually upping my calories a bit. So not sure I will make that during this challenge but this challenge has been a success!!

Challenge goal - I would like to be at 129 (lose 5 lbs) and be consistently working out 4x a week.

I reached my goal of 129 on 7/24 and have worked out at least 4x a week for 2 weeks now. I am revising my goal weight (for the challenge) to be 123.8 which is at this point my final goal.

Didn't check in last week because I was on vacation. I lost one pound on vacation which I consider to be a victory! While I was really good with my food choices, I did indulge in some wine drinking. But I also had plenty of exercise with hiking and kayaking. I doubt that I'll make my goal of 180, but I'm okay with that as long as I keep losing. I feel great!

Happy day happy day! I guess I should make a new goal but I am not sure what to even hope for. When I started the challenge I thought it was incredibly unlikely I would reach the goal I set. I'm just going to keep doing what I've been doing and see what can happen. Woohoo!

      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.
