Valentines challenge/Goal



Recommended Posts

I thought that I would start a thread for us MERRY LOSERS. I like to set mini goals for myself (quicker gratification) keeps me going. So I would like to lose 20lbs and commit to myself to excersise for at least 40 min 4 times a week by Valentines Day .So if anyone else would like to join me with there own goals I thought that we could encourage each other through this new journey!!!!:clap2:

My goal at the moment is to get up to swimming 1km per night. While I'm up at work (mine site), that means 50 laps of the little 20m pool. So far, I did 14 laps the first night, 20 the second and 32 last night (640m). I'm going to go for the lot tonight!! I think it will be a little easier when I get home and can use the 50m pool at the local fitness centre.

Okay, I'm in. I want to be up to 45 minutes on the treadmill walk/running by February 14th and hope to be down 15 pounds by then. Really wanted to write 20 pounds, but my scale is fluctuating to much right now and want to be realistic.

My goal is to lose 100 pounds by September.

DH and I are going on a trip to China in September and I want to be able to climb the Great Wall etc. I figure 100 pounds in 34 weeks isn't too big an ask, it's just under 3 pounds per week and on Monday I have my first appointment with my PT so will be exercising as well. I have little goals along the way, like new shoes etc but this is my main motivation.

Hello everyone how are we all doing less then a month away to meet our mini goals well I have been going to the gym and doing the treadmill but it's been about 8 days and the scale s not going down actually I believe it went up a 1lb. Maybe because I started to eat (mushie stage) and was on liquids before? Hope everyone is doing well!!!!!:tt1:

      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.
