Read what we wrote last month!!

I found last month post when we posted our goals. Check it out and see if you made it this was my answer "Deb my goal is to be 178lbs by Feb 1st thats like 6lbs away. But I am losing so slow, I might not make it. But I'll try my best... I also want to go at least 4 times a week to the gym, no less than that... I also want to stop eating things I shouldn't. We should save this post and come back to it on February 1st and see if we made it...that would be fun...and we can do this every month..!!" I met all the goals except the not eat things I shouldn't LINK TO LAST MONTHS POST http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/10-2005/postdetail/6739.html?vc=0

Yaaaay! I made all my goals! (Just barely on the weight though!) I wanted to lose 13 lbs and that was exactly what I lost, I wanted to make a BMI of 39 (I'm at 39.6 now) so that I could finally be JUST OBESE and not MORBIDLY OBESE anymore! And I wanted to keep going to gym 5-6 times a week which I've done all month (except the days after I fell on my knee on ice). My reply last month was: "Hmmmm... I guess I'll make my goal to lose 13 lbs and be at 272... this way I'll have a BMI of 39 which means I will be under 40 finally....yaaaay! My other goal is to keep working out 5-6 times a week like I did this week and to look forward to the gym like I used to a couple of years ago when I never liked to miss a day! Vi "

YOU ARE DOING SO WONDERFULLY, MS VIOLET! ALL YOU WENT THROUGH IN THE BEGINNING IS WORTH IT NOW, ISN'T IT?!!!!!!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT EFFORTS ... YOU'RE SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO US ALL! GOD BLESS DAWN & NICK

Thank you Lady D, you are always so sweet.

I must have missed the original goal posting, but I'll just jump in now with my goal for March 1. I am now 28 pounds from my surgeon's goal. In the next month, I want to go down to 160 pounds. That's 8 pounds away from today. It will also put me at -80 pounds total loss since surgery. I want to keep up with my daily exercise on the Wellness Program at work and make better food choices. I want to stop eating at night. I have a real problem with that. I have started taking 2 protein supplements a day and my protein counts are getting better now. Thanks for doing this, it's a great idea! Cheryl

OK, OK, YOU SHAMED ME INTO PUTTING DOWN MY GOALS ... I HATE THIS PART (MAYBE, IF I MAKE SOME OF THESE GOALS, I'LL LIKE THEM BETTER)! I'M GOING TO PRINT THIS OUT & TAPE IT TO MY MONITOR. FEBRUARY 2006 GOALS 1 ... I AM 222.80; BY MARCH 1, I WILL BE 212.80 OR LESS - A 10 # LOSS 2 ... I'M ON A 15-DAY STALL, SO I WILL DO THE FOLLOWING TO BREAK IT ... CONSISTENTLY EAT/DRINK 60 - 80 GRAMS OF PROTEIN DAILY ... CONSISTENTLY DRINK 64 OZ OF FLUIDS DAILY ... REMOVE THE WHITE CARBS IN MY DIET & REPLACE THEM WITH GREEN CARBS 3 ... RIDE MY RECLINE BIKE AT LEAST 15 MINUTES A DAY, NO LESS THAN 4 DAYS A WEEK, INCREASING TO 30 MINUTES BY THE END OF THE MONTH 4 ... RECORD ALL THE ABOVE ON MY SPREADSHEETS SO I CAN'T SLACK OFF SO HELP ME, WLS DAWN & NICK

Well my goal was to be at 199 buy Feb 1st and when I weighed today I weighed 197.5 so woohoo I made my goal. My next is to be at 190 by March 1st. Marcey 255/197.5/150

My goat was to be at 220 and I didn't make it. I am at 224.9. But I feel great. I would love to be at 210 by March 1. It's almost camping time people and I so want to be in sharp. Our first camping will probably be in April. I can already do so much more than last year, like walk in the camper instead of slide in sideways because I was to wide for the door. Life is great!!!

thanks........i am at 189lbs right now.........maybe feb goal i will be 180 by march lol.....................your pics look great girl!!!!!! vickie r.

I wanted to be down to 290. If you go by my scale, I am lol. I use my surgeon's scale for my official number, and his puts me 3 pounds higher than mine. So that puts me at 293, I can live with that for now Carol
