I AM GOING TO FLY TO CALIF TO SEE MY DAUGHTER AND FRIENDS. ONLY MY DAUGHTER KNOWS THAT I HAVE LOST ANY WEIGHT. I WOULD LOVE TO BE VERY CLOSE TO 200 OR MAYBE IN ONEDERLAND!

Okay, I am ready to start posting here. I feel as if I was out there in between ville...not close to 300 anymore, and not close to 200, but here I am 228 and I am sooooo ready to have a home. I do have a great home over on the exercise bicycling thread, but I have sooo wanted to post here too. I am looking at getting to 200 by Christmas. That is my goal and if I get there sooner, then great. If I don't get there by Christmas, I guess I will have to change up some things. My name is Deanna and I ride my road bike A LOT!!! I also am doing the couch to 5 K program and am starting week 4 this week. I roller blade as well. I have a lot of muscle and am thinking that maybe my tummy will be fine after all of this weight is off. I have never had a flat tummy due to surgery when I was about three. I have a scar right across my tummy about where the plastic surgery pictures of tummy tucks I have seen are. That is where my pouch starts and it has always been there, as long as I can remember. I hope to get to know some of you as we get down to the greatest of all places that we as "fatties" can get. ONDERLAND!!!!

I saw 220.8 on my scale Sunday morning but it bounced after a day of graizing.. so I'm not claiming it til I see it again! So close to the Teens!

I'm like so many of you........... getting to that 199 is such a major HEAD game goal........... I can't wait!

The original goal was onederland by Thanksgiving, but now I think it may be in a couple of weeks! OMG...I think my husband will have to call 911 the morning I see 199 :confused:

I've been 204 for the last 8 weeks. Okay, that's not true. I've been 204, then 205, then 206, then 204 again - you get the picture. FIVE STINKIN' POUNDS! I get so frustrated because the ones are right there in front of me but I can't get it. I'm taking the Halloween challenge - I'm breaking this stupid plateau if it kills me!

I hear ya, Cyndilou! That's EXACTLY what I do. I joined Curves last month and I weighed Monday on their scale and it balanced on 200 so I was thrilled but it just wouldn't let me go to 199. Of course, that was with my gym shoes on so MAYBE I'm in ONE-derful ONE-derland but I'll make sure I'm there before I really Celebrate. It's exciting!

After I hit 199 a couple of weeks ago....I thought I would be back to visit two-terville. That kind of stuff always happen to me. So far I am 193 and moving down a little every couple days. I cant believe this is for real....that the weight is coming off. I am soooooo happy!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
