Road to onderland challenge May 21-June 21



Recommended Posts

Stayed the same again. I guess I should be happy, no fill and not gaining. This week I am going to try to exercise more, maybe that will jump start me.

Tricia, thanks! Thats my goal for this month, but that will have me at a 17 lb loss, and that is great, but you know what is going to be a great victory for me... when I finaly hit the 20 lb mark. I might see if I can get a fill soon.

Keep up the great work everyone!

I have an unfair advantage.....should I drop out?

I was just banded on the 8th so I have had benefit of the pre/post-op fast.

Well TOM is over and yesterday I was pysched to drop 2 lbs and be at 197. :cool: So I figured I would cut back on my calories yesterday and run an extra mile just to make sure it stays there. Nope!!! Didn't work--this morning I weighed in at 198.2!!! Oh well, at least I am still in Onderland and I am hoping it is just Water weight. Maybe I should try upping my calories a bit since I am working out. I am taking in around 600-800. I don't want to go into starvation mode but I gain weight or stay the same at 1000. WTH??? Any suggestions??

Carol, it isn't a contest. Just something to push yourself to hit the onderland mark. If you haven't hit it yet then please don't drop out. Its great to have you here :biggrin1: .

Liz, I feel your pain. Aunt Flo is on her way, but I have been lucky this time, so far anyway. I hope you find the right amount of calories for you. I am sorry that I can't be of more help. I am just plugging along myself as it is.

On a happy note for me! I have hit my goal for this month :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Here is the picture to prove it :biggrin1:

On 6-21-06 our finish date I was 189. I did reach one of my goals, but I did not hit my other mini goal which was to hit the 20 lb loss mark. Next moths goal will be to hit the 20 lb mark. That will put me at 186. Everyone did such a great job. You are all an inspiration to me. When ever I feel like I am not doing well I come on here and I read the great posts and I feel a little better. Thanks everyone for the awesome support!

I didn't make it but i did go down .25. I will be there by next week. I started the Sacred Heart diet and have finally gotten in touch with the doctor about a fill. I wanted the band so I would have a tool to help me. The nurse is going to make sure it is OK. I really need one because this "flying solo" is for the birds!

Well, I didn't get to post on Wednesday so I am making my announcement now.

198lbs I HIT ONEDERLAND:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

I don't know if I should rejoice or wait until tomorrow to see if I stay there. I have been at 200 for almost 3 weeks. I just hope that this weight stays for at least a week then I'll know it's for real.

Thanks Mia,

I actually got on the scale today and I am at 195 pounds!!!!Well, maybe I am out of the 200's for good now. I don't know what I was expecting to feel but I do feel better knowing I will not see 2 something again.

My goal looks attainable at this point.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
