I got there!  I was a day late, hit the goal on November 1, but I'm still going to claim it.  My halloween goal was 185.  My Labor Day goal had been 199.

For New Year's my goal will be 170 lbs.  There's two months, but lots of temptation between here and there.  If I hit 170 early, I've already got another mini-goal in mind.  But first things first!

Hi Lea:
I didn't make my Halloween goal of 209, but I did make my 100lb goal.  I started at 322 two weeks before surgery, surgery weight was 309...so I am was hoping for 209, but I'll take 217.  Seems like I've flucuated this last week or so, I am attributing it to my period.

My New Year's Goal is 197.

Thanks for the challenges.

Topic: Factor V Leiden and Surgery - How'd it go?
Just curious to know if anyone has gone through gastric bypass surgery with Factor V Leiden (a genetic blood disorder)?  If so, how'd it go?  I'm pre-op, almost done with all pre-op testing and soon to schedule a surgery date.  I know the disorder will cause problems with surgery, so just wondering if others have gone through it.
Thanks, Sherry

You know, Gayle, I am in much the same boat...  I can't seem to lose further and I have really lost the notion that it even matters.  I know that if I am able to have some plastics at some point (a tummy tuck particularly), then I will lose more than 10 more pounds.  I know that this would put me firmly into onederland and as long as I am happy with where I am at, isn't that what counts??  LOL  I float between 202 and 207 most days.  That is awesome compared to where I started at back in July of 2006 (410 pounds!).  And, I am happy, healthy, and working almost full time again.  What more can a girl want???  I am also able to do whatever I want with that baby grandson of mine and that makes it all worth it!!
Hugs,
Lea

Started out at 247 in June, had surgery in August and am now 13 weeks out at 183. 63 pounds down. Feeling great. Started in 3x tops and 24 pants and can now wear 1x tops and 16/18 pants. WOW!

Halloween was ok for me. I had one tiny piece of licorice. Nothing else.

My new years goal is 165. My weight loss has slowed down a bit which is frustrating, but I was told that would happen.
