Found out the pain in my hip is advanced arthritis and pool exercise is the best thing for it so my doing the challenge turned out to be the right thing. I am averaging an hour a day (a little over my goal) and lost 4 lbs so far. I think I will definitely hit my goal. Good luck to everyone.

This was my first week out of the hospital for issues with my colon and I only got in one 75 minute yoga class. I was so exhausted. But I'm down to 213 which was beyond my goal. Going to try to make a comeback this week with the exercise...Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

Merry X-Mas to everyone! This is supposed to be the end to our challenge. I exercised 3 hours this week and surpassed my weight loss goal starting at 225.6 and am now at 212.6. I'd like to keep the challenge going to keep us all motivate so whoever is still checking in let's continue to do so to give each other support. This goes along great with Stephh's weight loss challenges.

@@Rebeccaabrooks86 Hi just wanted to know where the new posting is at as I would like to start this challenge.

I don't know how many days are considered for the week and when will postings take place, ie; every Monday or Sunday?

I would like to try this to stay accountable along with the Valentine's challenge.

Thank you

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
