I know that this goal was one of my main goals. I had been hovering on 203-202 for about two weeks. And when I crawled on the scales this morning, cause I had a feeling, I was 198! I was so excited. I made my mom come upstairs and see it. Now I have to find myself another goal. It might be to get under 190. I set reasonable goals for a long time off so that I am sure that I can obtain them. It usually works for me. Well I just wanted to Celebrate my ONDERLAND! Go me!!!

Great accomplishment. Keep your goals reachable and not set them too high. With each one accomplished set the next. 190 is a great goal for June.

congratulations !!!!!!! It feels amazing to be in the land of the ones......................yipppeee............ I too made it to the ones.

I have an old fashioned doctors scale and It feels so good putting that scale weight on 150 instead of the 200 mark, ok, it goes all the way to the end of the 150's but I don't care at this point....... again congrats

Yay you! Very well done!

For those of us that think in metric, we tend to pass into onederland and not even realise it, lol. I was 180 something before I figured it out.

I have been hoovering on the borderline into Onderland for ages it seems. I lost over 20 lbs in the first 2 weeks after surgery, then got down to 202, and shot back up to 205, then 206, this last fill finnally helped and this moring I weighed in at 200.4, so .6 lbs to go! lol

Congrats to you! Green w/ envy, but I'm sure I'll be there soon!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
