Hello! I am a post-bariatric patient. On June 25th 2013, I had the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy procedure done. My starting weight was 340 lbs. In the 4 years since, I have lost a total of 158 lbs overall but recently, 30 lbs have found me again due to chronic pain and other medical stuff going on with me, not related to that particular surgery. I need to restart my journey and get it off of me so that I can get back down to my lowest weight of 182 lbs. This is quite a check for me and I know I can do it with lots of support & I will be happy to support ya'll too! :-) (Thank you in advance)

TOTAL LOSS SO FAR: -21

2 weeks ago I bought a treadmill (I was doing 21 day fix before and I started running 3x a week in addition) and began drinking coconut oil blended into my coffee - I think the combination of the two has spiked my weight loss as I have lost 5.2 lbs since!!

Starting weight: 210 6/2015
Goal weight: 165 lbs by 6/15/2017
4/1 weight: 180
4/17 weight 176
4/29 weight 174
weight loss to date: 36
Weight loss methods:
Diet: NONE. Just eating healthy and hoping I slim naturally from that. Cals = 1700-1800. I just found out i am pregnant so my weight loss goals are 165 instead of 145!
Exercise: hooping, weight lifting, Zumba, 3 mile walks

Challenge SW: 12/29/16: 216.0
CGW 6/15/17: 186.0
GW: approx. 157.0 (based on initial goal body fat of 23%)
UGW: 18-19.5% body fat (18% is 148.0 at 5'9")

Weight loss method: Weighing, measuring and logging all food. Ensuring I have enough protein and good fats for satiety. Kettlebell and lifting workouts. My goal is 122g of protein each day and 25g of fiber. Workouts consisting of kettlebells and lifting. I also try to incorporate HIIT and Tabata as well.

4/20/17: 189.2, -2.2
4/27/17: 189.6. +.4

Challenge Loss: -26.4, 88% of the way there and 3.6 to go!. I did have a set back this week, but I know it's because I'm female and all this extra water weight I'm carrying should go away this week. I have continued logging and eating at a deficit, so I would be really shocked if the gain stuck. My goal is still to be around 180 by the end of the challenge and hopefully meet the challenge goal by the next weigh in (this Thursday).

This past week's challenge: I've been very busy with my kids and getting accustomed to working more regularly (substitute teaching). I love the challenge and the children, but it definitely takes some planning to stay the course for eating. I only fit in one workout this past week.

This past week's successes: Very consistent logging. Still weighing everything.

This week I plan on fitting in those workouts again!
