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:

      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.

    Ok so it looks like I might make my goal. I have to bust a move in the next week though. It'll be hard! 7 pounds in a week. Can that be done? I finally got weighed today. My scale died on me a while back (over use! haha) so I haven't weighed in probably 6 weeks now. I got another fill. The last two lapband appts I've lost 11 pounds and this appt I only lost 7 so I got a 0.2 fill. See how I do.

    You guys are doing great!

    Josette,

    Try low carbing it for a week, bet you'll hit your goal!!

    low carbing it really works for me. i am down almost 20 pounds in 2 weeks.... of course i TOTALLY blew it tonight (i wanted Italian and ate Italian) and tomorrow is the Police concert, so low carb will be hard then too. So i will go back to low carb on Thursday.

    i refuse to go on a 'diet' so i can't "go off"...

    Tammy,

    just the thought of losing 200 pounds baffles me. :confused: you are such an incredible inspiration to me (and others, i am sure).

    you are doing a 'fantabulous' job!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

    Well my least favorite time of the month is here and has me pinned down today at home. I swear I'd gladly donate my parts if anyone needs them...lol I'll take my 1 pound though I'm sure I won't make my goal. Do we want to start the next monthly challenge at the beginning of August or should we have it from the 15th to 15th so we don't lose motivation?

    Congrats ladies on all your victories!!

    Okay, I stopped at my PCP's office today to get some lab slips and I jumped on the scale while I was there (after all, it's Wednesday), and I have to keep reminding myself this will all change soon enough and the scale will go back up for a while...but...W O O H O O !!!
