Elusive Onederland

For the past few weeks I have been hovering in the low 200's with the exception of a week where I got sick and ended up gaining weight. On Monday 12/21 I was 200.2 lbs....

I'm so close to Onederland - but my period is due on 12/26 and my weight is up to 201.8 today. I'm following the program, and I know this is temporary, but my goal was to be be under 200 by New Years.

It can still be done...it's just SOOOOO CLOSE. I haven't weighed this low since high school. In fact, I can't ever remember being this low as an adult. I remember being in the 220's and thinking how big I was....I never imagined getting up to 295.

I know it's strange, but seeing the "1" as the first number just holds a lot of meaning for me. Really, I don't think physically I will feel any differently at 199 than I did at 200.2 but MENTALLY it means everything.

Thanks for listening & Merry Christmas!

    Well you may not get there by the date you want, but rest assured you will get there. Onederland certainly is a magic milestone for most of us . Merry Christmas to you too!
