I'll be weighing myself tomorrow...haven't weighed in about a week. DH's kids were here and then we went out to visit his son and I had one day where I was not good. I'm back on track, but I guess I have to hop on the scale tomorrow and see how much damage one day can do.

So...from whatever my starting weight is, I'd love to lose 15. :confused: I'll add my stats tomorrow. I think this challenge is exactly what I need for a kick in the butt right now. It is HARD getting back into my regular gear today. But I HAVE to. Thank goodness I have a fill coming up a week from Wednesday. I swear the hunger monster wants a piece. :paranoid

To all you Valentine's Day Challenge Nymphs!

I had an idea. I am going to start a thread every week that you can post your weekly weigh in until we get to Valentine's Day. I will have the thread read "November Nymph Valentine's Day Challenge Week 1 Update". This way the updates won't get lost in this thread and I want everyone to read it through to see all the successes. If anyone has a better idea let me know because I want to make it easier for everyone.

I love small challenges because it easier to look at than 118lbs. Do you agree?

Good luck and the weight begin melting.

I managed to not lose a single ounce this past week. *sigh* So I'm buckling down on my exercise (walked 1.8 miles last night, half of it uphill and then I walked most of the stairs for my patrols) and going back to one regular meal, two Slim-Fast shakes. I don't seem to lose when I have 3 regular meals EVEN if I'm under 900 calories for the day. Absurd. Whatever. I guess I'll do what I have to do to get this stuff off. I wanna be in Onederland, already! I have a weigh-in with the doc on the 23rd for my fill. I'd like to be at least 5.5 lbs lighter by then.

Sounds good to me, Cindy! I really like the idea of this challenge. It really gives me something to look forward to. And I LOVE the thought that I'll be in the 180's for my anniversary (Valentine's Day)! I'll be 18.5 lbs over the weight I was when we met. I'm so excited! :clap2:

That is such a great goal to look forward too! Have you anything planned for your Anniversary? This would be a good time to plan something special. Maybe a quiet get-a-way.

Once I reach 275, this will be a milestone for me because it was the weight I was when I was beginning to have my children. I remember not wanting to tell my weight to the hospital in front of my husband because I did not want him to know how overweight I was. Now, my oldest child is 14; so that is a long time.

Also, the 60lb milestone was big for me because I have never gone beyond 60lbs and maintained it and with my Band I know that I am going to pass 60lbs and keep it off. I am looking forward the 3/4 quarter century mark with a aggressive passion.

Mini goals are great for motivation aren't they. Good luck!

Cindy

Ok, I'm in, but no way can i keep up with your impressive double digt expectations. I'm on the slow losers thread, have no restriction and after six weeks ready to eat a house!

so if I make the six pound loss, I'll be thrilled!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
