Valentine's Day Weight Loss Challenge

Hey all.. well there is only a few weeks left on the New Year's Day Challenge so I'm starting a new one. I've missed the last few and need to get started RIGHT NOW! Sorry for jumping the gun, but hey - it is what it is... :ohmy:

I will be banded on December 27th. Is 15lbs a reasonable goal for Valentine's Day? I'm truly hoping it's more but don't want to set myself up for disappointment.

OHM, you know I lost 11 Lbs. in my first week of banding so I don't think its too far off. I just put myself at losing the minimum one pound per week. If its more then great! But I should really work to lose at least that much.

Congrats on your upcoming banding decision and Best of Luck!

Hi LMD!

I'm in! I was banded on 10/28 and figure I'm gonna need some motivation after the first of the year.

I'll post my weight and goal tomorrow. I forget to get on the scale this am.

OHM - 15lbs is totally reasonable for 2/15. I bet you beat that goal!

I don't playing by myself. ;o)

I'm going to change my goal every week to make sure I'm losing a pound per week. I did pretty good last week, keeping up with the workouts. Am I finally out of my rut? I think so!!

I'll take that challenge as well. I figure by Febraury 14th, @ 1 lb per week I should be able to loose another 7 lbs to put me down to 185.

We can do this:thumbup:

I'm really going to try hard to lose 2 pounds a week and go for losing 14 by Valentines day. That would put me at 193...a number I haven't seen in a very long time!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
