Road to "TWOterville"

Well it seems there are several of us who are currently trying to get to twoterville. So if you are one of us trying for it please tell us your goals and we can support each other as we try to get our tricksy scales to be nice and cooperative.

NOTE: So many of the people who participate in this thread have made it in to twoterville that we have really morphed to include passing thru twoterville as well as into it. This has happened over time, we keep growing, lol, but in a good way :eek:

  • Oh my goodness! Lapbandit, you look AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Geeze, I mean AWESOME! Way to go.

  • Thanks for the welcome ladies. You are all doing so well! I've currently hit a plateau, but my measurements are dropping again! I was able to put on a pair of jeans I haven't worn in over 3 years.

Grats Lorraine, welcome to twoterville :clap2:

And Wahoo!!!

Two great things

1. Had a major crisis yesterday with dh's ex, I wanted to eat like there's no tomorrow but I DIDN'T!!! In fanct I had to have a protien shake after dinner cause I was still too low on calories and protien.

2. OK this one isn't all good but... I've been constipated this last week since cutting down on calories and intake I also have not had as much fat and Fiber... So I had to take milk of mag last night, YUK! on the bright side I dropped a lot of weight! I won't belive the scale till tomorrow because after all it's not natural to have completely empty intestines so it as to be a false low, but hopefully not by much :car: Tomorrow is my official weigh day so we'll see :D

Grats 2B :P Welcome to the land of the 2's

Well my official weigh in for the week down a total of 12lbs for the week. Now if only I can keep from getting discouraged as the loss slows down to a normal pace. The initial loss when you first start being good again is so fast and exhilirating that the slow 1-2lbs a week can seem daunting. sigh here we go into a new week :)

WOW -- have I had a tough few weeks. I gained about 3 pounds during vacation, and have been battling to lose those same 3 pounds. I finally did and now down another .6 pounds from my lowest. So I hope I am on the right track again. I went to my doctor last week and he wouldn't do my 1st fill. He said it was because i was right on track of losing 1 - 2 pounds per week (barely 1 pound) -- I think it was because he was running 1 hour late and didn't want to bother with it. So i am almost 2 months from surgery with no fill, but I am still losing. So I am grateful for that. Just think if I would get off my butt and exercise too. HEHEHE

Thanks!!

I want to be in twoterville so bad. Why am I hovering around 305? It's just not fair. I hate it that I lose slowly.

I am so proud of the rest of you. One day soon, you'll get to say you are proud of me too.

Ciao Bellas!

congrats to the two entering twoterville!

nicole, that loss is great! Congrats on a fab week!!

katie, keep your chin up, you will get there. maybe try to do 1 thing a little different this week to see if that knocks it off!

i have been losing/gaining the same 3 - 4 pounds for about a week. i need to start 100% back to low carb. i know that's what works for me...

Katie, chin up girl! Passing the border into twoterville is difficult I think for a lot of people because mentally it's such a milestone. I think many of us sabotage ourselves and float around 300-305 sometimes for weeks or even months because in our heads we aren't ready. Look at what you are doing and honest look at what you are eating and what you are doing for activity and see if there is something you might be doing to stall yourself unconsciously.

Well thanks for all the grats everyone and today was my first day at this new job. I spent the whole day in horrible gas pain and nausea to boot. Not sure why but was extremely tight all day. No PB's recently at all and today no sliming even just felt nauseated every time I even drank something. Maybe I'm tight or maybe I have a bit of a bug, not sure but either way it was miserable :think. All in all it was a good day, just minus food, so I'm drinking my protien tonight.

I know <sigh> I can't keep looking at it as a negative! 30 lbs is good. Its been a little over 4 months since my surgery and I should be happy about 30 lbs. I will get there. I will get there. <continuing the mantra>

Thanks girls, you're the best!

KT

I only weigh when I go to the doctor's. Went yesterday and am still 304, so have lost nothing this week, despite a good fill and exercising. It could be women's fluctuation weight or it could be I weighed in the afternoon rather than the morning or maybe I'm just plateauing. My only problem is that I put an unrealistic (for me) goal for the month. I'll pick my goal a bit more carefully next month to avoid disappointment.
