Valentine's Day Weight Loss Challenge



Recommended Posts

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:

BEST WISHES to all!

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!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
