Countdown to Onederland!



Recommended Posts

Finally, I'm sitting in the tunnel seeing the light of ONDERLAND!!! I'm so excited, I've not seen Onderland in 15 yrs. I'm so excited, I'm 2 sizes smaller than this time last year, and I'm wearing clothes I last fit into 15 yrs. ago. SWEET!!! Onward and DOWNWARD!

:whoo:

One-derland has been wonderful!

Was on a bit of a plateau for awhile but all of the sudden, 191!

Now my goal is to be in the 180's by end of August never again to see the 190's....

Keep up the good work, fellow bandsters!

The band works if you work with it....

Now if I could only get motivated to exercise every day! ;)

Depending on what scale I step on Im either 206.8 or 205. My goal was to hit onederland by September 1, at this rate I dont know if it is going to happen. I brought a new digital scale thinking that it would give me a better reading but the thing seems to not be able to make up its mind. One day it has me lower than 205 and than the next Im back up. My old scale the one that has me at 205 (and has been staying the same) is a dial scale but it is right on the money with the drs scale. I go for my 2nd fill tommorrow so if it proves that the new scale is off (Im hoping it is) its going back to the store. I paid 50 bucks for that thing.

I'm finally forever in onederland..never going back to twoterville or the 2hundred club-- I've been @ 194.5 for 3 days now... It ROCKS.. can't wait until 180's.... I'm really wanting to lose 34 lbs by my 1yr anniversary (nov. 28th) I hope that I can do it. I've upped my work out to 3 days of cardio and 3 days of weights... I'll be satisfied with 25 more lbs. Wish me luck!

LOL! Nah, we don't mind, it's good to see someone inching their way closer to the elusive Onderland! The closer you get, the more excited I get! :whoo::clap2::whoo:

Thank you for the encouragement, it does help! This is my first "real" plateau and I swear my body stopped here just to torture me, lol! You'll know when I finally get into Onderland cuz I'll be on here posting my weight hourly, lol! I'll be the crazy lady carrying the scale with me everywhere and hopping on and off it all day! :heh:

This morning the scales moved ( I have 2 that I weigh on one digital the other dial.) The digital scale has me at 203.2 the dial about 203. Im so happy but a little unsure. Here is the thing. I got my second fill on Monday so I had to do a day of clear and than a day on full liquids. So Im thinking that I may have lost Water due to 2 days of not eating. But the twist is that I also started TOM this morning so I was expecting to have been up a little instead of down. Not sure what to think now. Im going to have my boyfriend hide both scales until Monday and than try again. But for right now Im claiming my 203.2:clap2:

Hey guys! Sorry I've been gone from here! Been to the beach and work has been crazy. I'm STILL sitting at 187 and have been for a few weeks. I'm getting my band adjusted on September 4th. Hopefully that will help me to lose the last 30 or so pounds.

A BIG Congrats to you all on doing such a great job with the weight loss! Congrats to those of you who have reached Onederland and so MANY of you guys are soooo close! Keep up the great work!

Come on guys!!! WE ARE DOING IT!!!! 187 is SOOOO MUCH BETTER THAN 318 was!!!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
