So this morning the scale said 200.0... That is torturous!



Recommended Posts

How is the scale going to tease me like that. I got back on 2 other times hoping the number would go down, but it didn't :(. Ughh I've been pushing hard lately to make it to wonderland. Now today I'm going to eat all Protein and workout twice. Tomorrow that scale better say 1 something! Lol. *Vent over*

You will get there! I remember wanting to get past that point so badly and for two weeks I would be there one day then my weight would fluctuate back up and down and up again.

Now I cannot weigh daily anymore, it actually began to make me mad. I lose a pound and get stuck for two weeks on that darned fluctuation roller coaster.

This morning was my weigh in and whoop, down a pound. Thank goodness!

Thanks everyone! I worked out for 30 minutes this morning, and have been eating nothing but Protein and Water. I weighed myself an hour ago for curiosity and I hit wonderland! Finally lol after 7 years. Now I'm not looking back and I have to keep maintaining progress :)

YEA!!!! I'm on the edge too, but I still have 3 lbs to go. Hopefully, I'll arrive in Onederland by next weekend. Keep up the good work. I'm really happy for you.

You'll get there! I remember eagerly waiting to get to 199. Lol. I haven't been under 200 lbs since I was 16. So I couldn't wait. It's been a little over six months and my weight loss is slowing up. But I noticed that I HAVE to do the right thing (like eating Protein and staying hydrated) for things to go my way. Which is hard because I don't like to eat (I am more of a grab a snack person).

But stay with it, try not to obsess with the scale (it is really hard to do). We're rooting for you!

The same thing happened to me and it will pass.... It's like the scale knows and there's a speed bump on 200 - in fact, I've found that every 10lb interval is a hurdle with that imaginary bump at 90, 80 , 70 and so on . Stick to the plan and you'll get there! Good luck and enjoy ONEderland :)

I completely understand, I had gastric bypass on Sept 1 and I'm at 208 right now and can't wait to be in onederland. It's been over 20 years since my weight was in the hundreds. I had to take my scale out of my bathroom because I was weighing daily and numerous times throughout the day. Just can't wait to not see 200 on the scale but learning to be patient.

I've been there stuck for a week but when I continue to eat healthy, exercise and drink plenty of Water the scale show me love Sometimes up to 5 pounds lost and lots of inches. Slow weight lost is great for not having excess fat hanging because exercise will tone the muscle.

I am 3 months out and I just hit onederland!!!! I went to see my nutritionist and it said 198.5 I was so excited I took a picture!!! It's been 7 years since I've seen anything under 200 pounds. Every day is getting easier to eat less and eat better and the more I know I did the right thing even when I have cravings and get mad cause I can't eat what everyone else is eating. In the end it is worth it. I'm happier and healthier now. I've lost 60 pounds and my second goal is to lose 23 more pounds. Good luck everyone!!! Keep up the good work.

      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!!
