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.

Go Marcy, Go Marcy!! Woohoo! I'm so happy for you!

I'm coming around the bend though. I was at 300 even this morning. I'm going away for the weekend and I hope to be 299 (or less) when I weigh again on Monday morning.

Talk to yall soon. Hey Marcy, do you get a present for reaching Twoterville? I need a new wallet and I'm going to spend more than I normally would, I think, and get something fancy.

Hit Twoterville sometime between July 6 and July 12 (went from 301.08 to 296.06, but I don't weigh everyday so I don't know exactly when I got there). Twoterville rocks! Especially after being SO close to 400 lbs...

I'm 10 lbs away from having lost 100 lbs. I have roughly 6 weeks before my 6 month bandiversary. Here's to hoping, and hoping, and hoping I can Celebrate 100 lbs lost by September 1!!!

Come on, Julie! I am waiting for you here! Frankly, it didn't occur to me to get a present. Maybe if I hit my September goal. It's a tough one, but I'll try.

Wheetsin, you ROCK!! I can only dream of doing so well.

I'm down 15 lbs since surgery . My current goal is 10 lbs which would bring me to 253 from 281 at surgery. I just got a fill on Monday and so far so good. I feel great and its nice to have a little restriction.

Rock on with your bad self.

I wish I had the self discipline to not weigh every day. Maybe after I am a few months in.

I got my third fill on Thursday and it seems to be just what I needed. I'm down to 307.4 and hope to be out of the 3's in another few weeks. My all time high was 440 and I LOVE the feeling of being able to see that scale leave high numbers. Keep up the great work everyone.

Ahhh, despite a not so perfect food weekend (I was traveling), I had a soft landing into Twoterville this morning, when my scale gave me the friendly number of 298.

I feel really good and not at all depressed that I've got a long time to get to know Twoterville. I was prepared for a little depression (I'd heard that it's common), but I feel good.

Come on, Elisabeth, LapBandit, BPM and the rest! The line on the left at the border moves faster, but the attendant isn't as cute.

Wink,

I am SLOWLY crawling towards Twoterville. I feel like a drunk trying to walk home. LOL I know I will make it. I got on the scale and I have lost another .5 a pound. that is a total of 2.5 pounds since my surgery on the 10th. slooooooow. but i know it will speed up. i am still nursing a cold i got from being intubated. i think that might be keeping me from losing. i start fish and eggs today, so i am sure with the added protein and the lowered carbs that my weight will start to drop some, and my drunken crawl will sober into a buzzed stagger towards the border.

I was 306.2 this AM so I'm approaching the border. LOL. The last fill really gave me proper restriction and I'm on vacation this week from work so I'm staying away from food and doing tons of projects in and outside of the house.

You guys are AWESOME!!!! Congrats Julie, you made it! I'm taking the scenic route to Twoterville. I've still got a little over 3 lbs to go. Come on body...work with me!!!! This post is really keeping me motivated, thanks everyone! What do you say we change this into a Twoterandahalfville post next???!!! (Is that a long enough name?)

Wonderful idea LapBandit! I love this thread. It was the first place I came to share the news.

Hi everyone :)

OK I think I have pretty decent restriction now, still need a little more to reach that sweet spot. But despite good restriction this last weekend knocked me on my heiny. We are in the middle of a major heat wave, I haven't wanted real food because of the heat so I turned to ice cream the last several days and the first solid food I had was fried chinese food, I had to go slow but I got it in. And the worst is I started drinking diet coke again. So here I sit with the scale totally stuck. And me stuck in a major bad habit of diet soda. Today I reslove to get back on track kick out the soda and no more pouch packing! oh and no more ice cream unless it's my birthday :jaw: As for another thread once we all get to twoterville, let's all stick together and have a "journey through twoterville" where we can hang out and encourage each other till we are ready for a onederland challenge :waytogo:

Molly, we all get off track once in awhile but I believe you'll get straightened around. When it's too hot to eat a hot dinner I'll have a bowl of Kashi Lean Cereal with skim milk. It's cold and healthy...do you like cereal? Kashi Lean is well balanced with a lot of Protein.

I'm getting close guys...I think I may be moving into the 'ville sometime this week!
