Why is onederland so evasive?!

When you guys got to the lower 200's, did it seem like it took FOR-EV-ER for the scale to drop below 200?

    Made it!!! 198.9 this morning. It's surreal to see that '1' after so long. And it sure beats the hell out of seeing a '3' for so many years. I'm less than 3lbs from no longer being obese per B

Yes for me it took almost a month for me to make it to onederland. But the feeling you get when you do make it will be worth it. You'll get there.

I'm fighting the "wanna get below 200" battle too. ????

I only recently made it to onederland. My weight lost had slowed in the last few months so compared to the 20 lbs a month I lost at the beginning, it is much slower. You'll get there. Keep up the hard work!

It does seem as I approach 200 things have really been slow. I hit 208 back on July 9th, and I seem to be just holding there. I haven't weighed myself in a few days as I've been out of town, so I am hopeful when I return I will have started moving again.

As always though, while I sit at the same weight, my body fat % goes down and my clothes start getting too loose. Like clockwork.

Ah yes, I do remember that feeling well. Forever to onederland in reality only took a week , that 200 mark just lingered for what seemed a lifetime. But then it happens and what a wonderful feeling !!

Now I'm patiently waiting to get to goal , and waiting and waiting and waiting

I hit onderland at week 22 after my surgery. It seemed like a long 22 weeks, but now I realize that it was pretty fast. It's funny how time seems to move so slowly after surgery. It's only after you reach your goals that the time seems short.

I know what you mean the closest I got was 209. Now I am back at 250. I am not happy where I am and onederland is my goal. Good luck on reaching onederland!

I felt like it took forever to get below the 200 mark but then it did and now has jumped on down into the 180s really fast. You will all get there! [emoji4][emoji106]????

I absolutely hear you. I have been under 210 since 4 months post-op, and in the 2 months that have passed in the meantime, I just this morning got below 205.

This.

Is.

Taking.

FORRRRREEEEEVERRRRR!!!!

I am 7 months out and finally broke the 200 mark- actually down to 191. !!! But the scale has not move at all this month...very FRUSTRATING ! I know the weight loss slows down but this can't be it ☹️ I work out with a trainer two days a week and try to walk a mile two other days, I am getting my protein, taking my vitamins and calcium . I do admit I stopped counting how much water I drink. But how do I kick thus back into gear and start dropping again? I will take any advise, criticism and help... I am just at a loss as to what to do.
