August All-Stars' Easter Sunday Challenge! Start.



Recommended Posts

Okay y'all!

A few of us want to keep going but Gilta needs a break so I offered to take this one.

Challenge ends on Easter Sunday, April 12.

I'll post every weekend for the end of the week. Keep track of what your doing and post your results! Best wishes!

For me:

Start: 184.4

End: 174.4

Goal -10lbs

Pretty ambitious since it seems I'm a slow loser so we'll see!

Best wishes everyone!!

Good luck everyone!

Okay I'm a little torn about how to set my challenge for this. In part because I can't aim for the 12th as I have my torso lift on the 2nd of April, and the other is that I'm actually officially only 4.4lbs from goal at the moment.

So I'm setting myself a modified challenge if that's okay with everyone? I want to have lost 8.4lbs from now to the 2nd of April - which will take me to 150lbs, 4lbs UNDER goal.

Start: 158.4lbs

Goal: 150lbs

I'm going for (at least) 15 this time. I go for a fill on Tuesday.

Start: 199.8

Goal: 184.8

(But if somehow I could make it to 180, I'd be soooo happy!)

Good luck everyone...off to exercise!

I'm in! I've been coasting for the past few months - losing, but not at the rate I could be. I'm going to be ambitious and set my goal at 20 pounds.

Starting Weight: 243

Goal Weight: 223

Wow, the 220s. I haven't seen those numbers since 1990. And from there, ONEDERLAND is within reach! Woo hoo!!!!

Thanks, Heartfire, for taking up the Challenge torch. And thanks Gilta for the last one. :rolleyes:

I'm new to the challenges but I need one. I'm stuck and I need the motivation. Only 1 small fill so far. Doc wouldn't fill me b/c I had lost 50 pounds in the first 3 months but haven't lost too much since. So, here goes....

currently: 255

goal: 240

I go in for a fill on the 25th. Re-hired my personal trainer today!

Best wishes to all!

Lellow, that's perfectly fine. These are individual challenges just in support group mode to help us all get through this.

And you're welcome, everyone!

Have a great week and best wishes on our goals!!!

      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.
