@@BelleCurves - congrats on meeting your goal - I also did c25k - I just ran my first 5k last thursday - i feel sooo sporty! I just downloaded the 10k app to try and keep going!

This is awesome and thank you! It's such an incredible feeling to know that we're capable of running - haha!

I'm on my last week and feel empowered. Awesome that you're going to shoot for a 10K! You'll rock it I'm sure and congrats on your first (of man, I'm sure) 5K!

Stats for the Week of September 12

Hi everyone – We have 1 week left and we have seen some real progress this week towards meeting goals! Please log your final values by Friday this week if possible.

As a reminder, this will be my last challenge to run for a while. I am looking for someone to take over. If you would like to take over and run the next one (probably for Halloween) please let me know and I will send you the spreadsheet all set up and explain how to update it – It is fairly straight forward.

On with the stats!

We have 56 participating –

5 have been removed for not logging weight since the start of the challenge

We have only 1missing weight for the week so the weight is carried over

A huge congrats to the following participants who met their goal 1 week early:

      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. 🤞
