I just read about the meaning of Onederland and I have been in this place for a while, so HAPPY. I'm,186 this morning so I have lost 29 pounds since surgery December 17. I think that is slow compared to some of the post I've read on here but I'm happy to be losing. I didn't measure myself before this journey started but I know I have last tons of inches because none of my clothes fit...YAY!!! Thank God for this surgery.

Congrats on reaching Onederland - even if it was a while back!

lost 29 pounds- surgery December 17. slow compared to others?????

lady

WooHoo on becoming one of the latest and greatest new members of "onederland"

never, ever, never compare your weight loss/time period to anyone elses in sleeveland

people have been shot for less

the expression on the board is..............

"the one thing we have in common is that we're all different"

the "average"/good amount of weight loss in a month (per Nielson's poll)

is 10lbs

dropping 29 lbs in 6 weeks in NOT slow

terrific, terrific

trust me!!!!!

would i lie to you

its great to see that you are losing inches by the way your clothes feel/fit

but....you might want to measure yourself today, and again in 2-3 weeks etc

keep records of those inches all over

these #s are especially nice to see when you might not have lost any weight in a while/stalled - but your inches are dropping

you are doing great

keep up the good work for the rest of your healthier, happier, longer life

kathy

congrats

Congrats, stay focus,walk, walk, walk and sip your Water. GasX strips worked good for me, ice pops were good too and a heating pad for my stomach was great.

That first week was so hard for me, but everyone is different so I hope this will be a breeze for you.

Wish you so much success with your new life.

Congrats. Big accomplishment! It took me awhile also to figure onederland but kudos to whoever came up with it. I can not wait to be a member of that special group.
