Labor Day Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

Next Monday, Labor Day will only be 10 weeks away!

Anyone wanna go for -10 in 10 weeks? I sure need this boost!

Im guessing that Jonathan is in transition right now, and will put our info into his site as soon as he checks in. He wanted before/after pics on this challenge. But Ill wait till he gets back and let him persue that avenue!

We can start on Monday - and weigh in every Monday afterwards.

And you are welcome to set your own "goal".

-10 in 10 weeks is a fairly decent weightloss goal for most of us to aim for.

Anyone???

I'm in for 10 in 10! I'm gonna kick ya'lls butts cuz I'm getting my first fill on July 6th! wahoo!! So we are posting start weights on Monday? I'll be here!

DeLarla, I think you make a perfectly lovely head-cheerleader. I'll need it because I have all this gumption today and will likely peter out in a few weeks. Keep us driven! Get your whip! (and I know you have one).

Jonathan, we'll be here when you get back...

Hi Phyllis!

On Monday's, just post your current weight.

LaMadam actually strated the original one. Everyone was complaining about not losing any weight. So the challenge was started to show us that we ARE losing, we just cant see it on a daily weigh in, but we CAN see it on a weekly or bi-monthly weigh in.

Oh, and Jonathan has a web site that he adds our names, starting weight, current weight and goal weight. Seems easier to keep track of!

Ya'll don't forget to take a quick "before" pic this weekend. We can post them later, but at least get it taken. It will be nice to se the difference at the end!

I am going to try as well... I have been lurking (only) lately, but I need to get it together. I had to have all of my fill removed due to heartburn & reflux and I cannot get a re-fill until July 6. I have already gained 3 lbs and feel like I am craving things I haven't craved in many, many months. I cannot stop myself from eating!!! I need serious help and support, so count me in.

Thanks everyone, I LOVE THIS BOARD!

okay, Let's add a twist to the pix part. I say we wear the same outfit in the before and after so that we can get a realistic portate of the weight loss.

      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.
