    Hmmmm.... What is realistic and yet motivating?
    Today 148.8 pounds (ate a lot today, so probably higher tomorrow)
    Goal 140
    Swim 5 miles/week (5 hours)
    Drink more -- my kidney function is not happy with me right now -- hot lemon water here I come!
    Reasoning -- people are starting to tell me that I don't need to lose more weight.
    Ridiculous! I look good now in my size 12's but I need to get rid of the last of the tummy fat under my skin.
    145 will be a BMI of (barely) under 25 -- so that is the first goal. 140 will be a BMI of 24. Sounds good to me!


    7/10: 238lbs,size 3x; 8/11: 221lbs size 22/2x; 6/12 B4 2 day liquid fast: 210 lbs; 6/13/12: 202.6 lbs
    1 month: 185.4 lbs; 2 months: 170 lbs, size 16; 3 months: 162.6 lbs, size 14; 4 months: 151.8 lbs; 5 months: 143.2 lbs, size 10; 6 months: 142.4 lbs stalls suck ; 7 months: 131.2 lbs, size 6 - 8; 9 months 130.2, size 6 - no real loss in 2 months -- Think I am done!

    Ok. So I said I'd join the next one so here we go.
    1. Get down to 275 current weight 292.
    2. Start to work out (asides from just walking).
    3. Continue to take at last two protein shakes a day plus vitamins. ( not on solids yet)
    4. Try to eat more. Still not quite hitting 350 calories a day.
    5. Do at least one special thing for just me this month and not talking myself out of it.
    6. Start "30" healthier than "29".

    Okay, late to the party but here's where I'd like to be on Dec 1:

    1) Doing PT floor stretching/stregthening exercises 2x a day, every day. Yep. That's how they're rx'd.
    2) Meditating. Daily. I've been kicking it around and need to get back to it, so-just DO it, period, end of discussion.
    3) Exercise every other day, gently as to avoid reinjury
    5) Lose 4-5 lbs.
    Starting weight: 255
    Pre-op weight: 228
    Surgery date: 3/14/2012

    Weight Nov 1st: 237.6 hoping to hit 225 by controlling portions, hitting the gym six days a week. Limiting carbs and sweets and measure rather than guessing. I'm off to a good start as I am already down to 234.5 so hopefully I can hit or surpass my goal. Good luck everyone!



    Highest weight: 296
    Weight as of first appointment: 294
    Weight day of surgery 8/8/12: 279

    Hmmm....for November I would like to lose down to 160. At the moment I am at 166. I also want to finish Push circuit and be two weeks in to the lean circuit (Chalean Extreme) before the end of the month. My other goal is to drink more water, that has always been a weak point for me.

    I don't want to sound blasé about this but my November goal is to NOT lose anymore weight. I've increased calories but I'm still dropping. I have had some health issues that I know is related but I'm now at 152, 17lbs below my goal. My BMI is now 22.5.
