Onederland Finally!



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

I am 4 months and 7 days out from surgery and have officially gone from 267 pounds to 199 pounds post op! I am finally in the 100's! I have not see. That have seen my weight begin with a 1 since 2005.

This has been an amazing journey and I feel amazing. I must admit it has been an easy journey because my sleeve works for me. Even when I nimble on something I shouldn't my sleeve stops me.

I'm so so excited! Hope everyone feels as good as I!

Congratulations, ualaw. You're ahead of me and I am so ready for Onederland. Surgery, Dec. 4th at 257.2 pounds. This morning I was 201.2. I was going to be happy in Onederland by June 4 (my 6 month mark), so I'm ahead of that. Any day now!

Enjoy your new weight category!! "Swag on, even when casual" [from 'Blurred Lines']

Hi. I have not exercised at all. I eat normally with exception of I juice to help mitigate Hair loss which I have not experienced so far. I do try to eat Protein first. However I will admit that most days I don't get enough protein in. I don't drink Protein Shakes or eat Protein Bars. Just regular foods. A couple of bites of meat then a couple of bites of veggies then done. No bread. No white carbs. No soda. So sugar except for natural sugar from fruits and veggies.

Hope that helps.

Perfect thanks! There is hope for me! I'm not an exercise fanatic either but I'm working on that. I'm getting my Protein, still working on getting all my Water in everyday but it's a struggle somedays. How old are you if you don't mind sharing? I'm 39

I could be each of your mothers--I'm 58.5 years old! So with slower metabolism, I guess all is well. :-)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
