Why is onederland so evasive?!



Recommended Posts

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?

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 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 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 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... :(
