"Shrinko De Mayo" Weight Loss Challenge

[coloradobanding 5]

Hello everyone,

I decided to start a new weight loss challenge for May 5th since the current "April Fools" weight loss challenge is less than 2 weeks away (seriously, where did March go? Anyone? :tt2:)

Please post here what weight loss you would like to achieve by May 5, 2009 (approx. 6 weeks from the date of this post). On average, Bandsters lose 1-2 lbs per week, but base your goal personally.

I love being motivated, so let's start the Summer off with a bang and a heckuva lot less fat!!

I would like to lose 15lbs by May. That way, hopefully at my daughters 5 birthday party on the 2nd, people will be able to tell that I have lost some weight.

I would like to lose 15 lbs by May. We have a reunion for my mother's birthday on the 16th and I'd really like to see a loss by then. I was banded Feb 20th and the weight loss is really so slow for me. This would be a motivation (I hope).

:tt2: Sounds fun, Im in..

[catho72 0]

I'm in. The timing for this works out perfectly since my son makes his First Holy Communion on May 2 and I would love to lose 12 lbs before then.

I would love to complete the Shrinko de mayo challenge. My goal is to lose 15 lbs. by May 5th. Currently, I weigh approximately 195 lbs., so that would put me in the 180's.

Thanks for starting this challenge.

I want to be 180 on my birthday which is June 12th. So I am 193 right now and my goal is 185 by May 5th. That would leave me a month to get that final 5 pounds by my birthday.

[A Buddy 0]

Count me in! I was banded March 10th and no fill until April 22nd. Currently at 257 would love to hit 245 by May 5th. 12 lbs goal.

You can also count me in! I am definently aiming for a 15lbs loss! I was banded on 02/16.09 by Dr. Smith at the Fort Worth Lapband. My current weight is 222 which will bring me down to 207 leaving me 7lbs to onederland!! :w00t:I'm really excited about this and as soon as I get my taxes I'm getting an eliptical!!:ohmy:
