ONEDERLAND????



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am a fairly new bandster and it is taking me a while to catch on to all of the lingo. But I can't figure out "Onederland" I see it alot on this site, but...???

Then there is "sweetspot" I think I got that one figured out, but how do you know when your there. My surgeon told me I would feel like I felt the first week after surgery, no appetite or desire to eat. I am not there yet. Is that how the sweet spot feels?

Hi Devin, I'm a new bandster too. Banded on 2/17/11. Onederland is when your weight is in the 100's. I'm not sure what the sweetspot is? :) Please do tell. lol Hope all is well!

Banded on Feb 17th. WOW...you are brand new. Hows it going? I was banded on Nov 9th 2010, and I remember how painful those first two weeks were. Especially at the port site. I am 4 months in now and although its been a struggle to learn how to manage my band and eat properly with it, it is still the best decision I ever made. Started at 304 pounds, scale said 240 this morning :D . I wish you the best as you start this wonderful new life as a bandster!!!

Onederland is when you're under 200lbs; ie 199. 1 instead of 2 :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
