July 4th Challenge - 120 days

For all those that enjoyed the VD goal challenge, here is a longer 120 day challenge. Set a goal for yourself to lose by July 1, 2009. I weigh 340.1 today and my goal will be 30 to 40 pounds for anything for my between 300 and 310.00.

Post your goal, post your progress and stay on thread with your ups (successes) and downs (fallen off point). I will be here for you and you need to be here for me.

Set a goal that is a bit unrealistic yet attainable. Something that will push you to exercise, stay on the food regiment and something that will get you going and stay going.

For me, I haven't been below 300 pounds in over a century so this challenge is huge for me. When I achieve this goal, my first 100 pounds plus will be gone forever and half of my total weight goal done....finished..

Join me as we strive to reach our goals and lose this weight forever!!

peace.................

Re: July 4th Challenge - 120 days

Well guys, I will be banded on 3/16/09. I just started my pre-op diet today. Since this is a longer challenge, would it be okay if I joined in?

I'm hoping to lose at least 10 lbs on the pre-op and a total of 30 by the end of the challenge.

loss of another 22 pounds putting me at my original goal. Dr. wants another 32-52# and I'm starting to think that is attainable.

Ok, I'm in. I also am training to do a triathalon. No, not an ironman, but a begginer sprint. 1/4 mile swim/13mile bike/3 mile run. I'm just looking to finish.
