Valentine's Day Challenge



Recommended Posts

Well I would have to lose 6 lbs. by Feb. 14th. It's only two weeks, so I don't think I will make it. But I will sure try.

So far losing now 1-2 lbs. per week, getting my 4th fill Feb. 5th. That should help.

Everyone is doing so well congratulations. I sometimes think the last half..of the weight you want to lose is the hardest to lose. Like those dreaded "last 10 pounds" they are stubborn little suckers.

Happy Valentines Day people!

Made it to my V-Day goal and even beat it by a couple of pounds.

V-Day Goal: 187

Actual: 185

So I wonder what goal is next? St. Patricks day? Memorial Day? Hmmm...

Hope everyone has a great weekend - and stay away from the chocolate!

I only lost 10 lbs, I missed my goal by 32. Not too bad since I spent the whole time in bandster hell with absolutely no restriction plus we have had little leauge candy in the house.

Start: 249.4

End: 243

I didn't make it to my goal of 239.4, but I DID lose 6.4 pounds. I didn't work very hard during the last half of the challenge, so my new personal challenge is to get back on track and not have so many "off" days.

I posted on the final WI thread but I'll post here too.

Start: 191.2

Goal: 181.2

End: 184.4

Loss: 6.8

Happy with that.

Lellow and Gilta want to do another challenge but Gilta wants a break. I've offered to do an Easter Sunday Challenge.

Start would be tomorrow the 15th and end would be Easter Sunday, April 12th. It's about 8 weeks (if I counted right!). If you're interested, let me know. I can start a new thread for it tonight and post every Sat PM for the end of the week.

Okay. Looks like a few of us are interested.

I'll post it after I'm done here.

August All-Stars Easter Sunday Challenge.

Sound okay? I'll post every weekend for the end of the week. I know most of us WI on or near Friday, so should work out okay.

I'm going to keep it simple by just posting the thread. Y'all keep track of what you're doing! :rolleyes:

I've never done this before so bear with me!

Night all!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
