I've finally gotten back to where I was at my lowest. I am 183 this morning. I want to be in the 160's... that's 14 pounds. I lost 8 since November 11th. I don't think I'm gonna make it, so I'll say I'll be happy if I get out of the 180's. And will work towards the 160 for my birthday (2/5).

Hey Terri...glad to see you've gotten back down after being sick.  My Christmas goal is 275....I'm at 291, so I've got 18 pounds to lose to get to that goal.  I'm not sure if I'm gonna make it (OK I need to accept that I'm not gonna make it).  So now my goal is to get as close as possible to that 275.  On a brighter note...I'm about 10 pounds away from losing 50% of my excess weight so if I lose that 10 pounds by Christmas I'll be happy,,,,nay ecstatic because that means I'll have lost 50% of my excess weight in about 4 months!!

Hi ladies! Just so you know...I am right there with you!!

I set a goal to get to my half way point by Christmas. I have 11.8 lbs to lose. I am a slow loser...so I will most likely NOT get there...but I'm sure gonna try!!

As long as we're working towards the goal...and NOT doing any damage...I think we could call this holiday season a success!! 

Take care and Merry Christmas!!

I'm now two pounds away from my Christmas goal. I think I'll make it. I too am a SLOW loser (I'm a revision from Lap Band to RNY) and today is six weeks post op. I'm still on a full liquid diet and am hoping to transition to soft foods after tomorrow's doctor's appointment.

My unrealistic goal was 220 I'm 280 now so if I could get to 269 or close to it I'd be happy. I am not melting like I had hoped I would but I'm still happy I see progress. Need to do some serious sweating!

My goal is also to be in the hundreds by Christmas and I am 9 lbs away, still hoping I can do it, if the flipping scale would just stop yo yoing! Well here's to everyone's success!

My Christmas goal is to get under 300 before my surgery the 14th. I only have 3.5 lbs to go.

2nd goal is to feel well enough by Christmas to start back to work (from home) at least part time by Tuesday 12/27.

I have 6 more pounds to reach my Christmas goal of 185.  I am a really slow looser and tend to go several weeks at a time without loosing and then lose 3 or 4 pounds in a week for several weeks.  It is very frustrating at times.  Hopefully I can reach my goal.

I have about 6 pounds before christmas to go. I am getting close to a year out so things are going slower but I still have hope I can do it.
