2009 Weight loss Challenge



Recommended Posts

This is a continuation of the last of 2008 challenge. I have pretty much just copied our format over here and hopefully it will work. Everyone needs to put their weight as it is when joining the challenge, then put your current weight, and then your goal and how much you have to go. Do the quote from the last person who posted add yourself in alphabetical order and update your stats. Good luck everyone, and here it is! Keep in mind that this is for the whole year.

A couple of questions... if I may. How long is this challenge running? Like to march? Or A holiday? Because I have short term goals and long term. I'm in the valentine one, that someone is running here, but it's really not working for me, in the set up. But if this is like the "last of 2008 challenge" I'd like it.

This is kindda exciting. I have lost 90 lbs so far and should reach my ulitmate goal this year. I am hoping by June which is my surgery anniversary and then maintain it. Last year at this time, I never could've imagined I'd be reaching my goal this year! I put my start weight at what it was on Jan. 1st.

I will say I will lose 30 pounds for ALL of 2009. I have become a slow loser. Right now I am ok with that since my workouts are next to nothing. I even may consider getting pregant this year with my DH.. So I will set of a Bar of 30 pounds that will take me to 166. I hope to blow it out of the Water but I want an attainable goal... I have already lost 75lbs.

After a bit of thought and wallowing over last year's disappointing challenge results...I am in!

I am letting go of last year and how much I didn't lose and now I will focus on this year and the road to goal. The fact is that I lost 100lbs by my first Bandiversary and I know I can make it to goal.

That's it! I am setting the goal of 175 that is -69lbs by my Bandiversary. That would put me at goal.

      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.
