Great news!!! I haven't been in onederland since 2004, I can't wait to join you!!!

I celebrated when I dropped under 200 lbs, too! I had despaired of ever being able to lose that weight before the surgery! Congratulations! I know how good it feels.

That is fabulous news! I am sure you are feeling so good, congratulations!

ONEDERFUL!!! I can't wait to join you...For me, there has always been something particularly humiliating about being over 200 pounds. I know that fat is fat...and there isn't a lot of difference between 199 and 201--but in our hearts and minds, there is a huge difference. Congratulations that you won't ever have to see those numbers again!

Isn't that the truth! I can still remember the sinking sadness and shame I felt when I first saw a scale show me a number over 200. It has been so long since I was south of 200 I genuinely cannot recall if it has been 11 or 13 years. It has been 15 years since I wasn't fat though.

Congratulations to you!!!!! Great job! How exciting that must feel . . . I can't wait to hit 199! that seems like a really far away place for me, I'm losing really slowly, but heck look how much i've already lost in 8 months! Can't beat that so i'm happy. . . it'll eventually get there, like i preach all over this forum, "Rome wasn't built in a day either"!

Yes Congrats! I have not seen below 200 since I graduated college....10 years ago!

Congrats! I'm so glad you made it to Onderland: the land of merely overweight, not obese, and -gasp! even normal BMIs! The land of normal size clothing and shopping in any store- not just the ones with Plus-size departments. The land of theme park rides, airplane seats, and restaurant booths. The land of happy knee joints, normal blood pressure, and feet that can walk for miles without screaming for mercy. Onderland - it was the land of my dreams for more than 10 years. I'm happy to say I'm with you and looking forward to the 180s!!
