Post-Op Halloween Weight loss Challenge

[Ima Loser 197]

I am in too… I am not one to pass up on a good challenge…

I have been going back and forth with a definite goal weight for myself, especially since I am only 3.8lbs to my initial goal/goal dr set for me… So I am going to shoot for a couple more than that.

I am gonna TRY for 8lbs before Halloween!!

Starting Weight: 167.8lbs

Halloween Goal Weight: 160 lbs

Lbs lost: ---

Lbs to go: 7.8lbs

[smallbird 168]

Current 159

Goal for Halloween -5 154

Ultimate goal 140

I have a question. When you join these challenges, what do you do differently? I feel like I am doing everything I am supposed to, and I will either lose something by Halloween or not, but it's not in my control.

Sorry if I sound stupid, but I very much want to join a challenge of some sort. I recently hurt my back and am hobbling even to walk so I can't join a mini fitness challenge, and these seem to be the only other ones...but I don't know what to do to be successful at it?

I don't think you have to do anything differently... it's just something that many of us use to try to get closer to our goal weight (motivation). It makes it a little fun and knowing we are all supporting each other can't hurt either.

Good Luck!

As to gamer girls question of what we do differently... When we have accountability and commoradery in a goal setting, we excel because someone else is watching and caring. It's much easier to cheat, delay, procrastinate and dismiss when it's just us looking. A challenge like this makes it fun and we have the accountability factor! Should we check in weekly, every Friday?! Great post I like it.
