A thread for those quickly approaching onederland



Recommended Posts

I weighed 210.8 this morning and I'm DYING to kiss that 200 goodbye on the scale. Once the kids are in camp I'll be able to pick up my exercise and then, hopefully, onederland here I come! It makes me want to come up with a fake illness so that I can step on a scale at the doctor's office and take that big clunker on the bottom from the 200 to the 150 mark.

Who else is anxiously awaiting and close to this milestone?

Hey, I am right there with you. I weighed in 208 this morning. My half-way point is 198, which is also in onederland. I can't wait to get there!

I weighed in at 215 this morning and have begun to think about how it will feel to be under 200. It's been 10 years since I was. It is almost unimaginable. I find myself dropping sizes faster now. I am more than half way to goal and very pleased with the results of this surgery. We will get under the O, and soon. Onederland is nearer everyday.

I weighed 211 this morning. I have not been in the one's in like 5-6 years so I will be glad when I get there again. My goal in Feb. when I had surgery was to be under 200 lbs. by the time my cousin's wedding roles around. Her wedding is in October so I should accomplish my goal!

I am at 201... so close I can taste it!!! 199 is also a major milestone for me because it marks 50 pounds lost and halfway to goal. I'm really hoping to hit it by the end of this month. :->

Oh, I also have a little tip for all of you coming up on onederland. I changed my screensaver to '199' (3D text that just spins around). I think it helps keep me focused on my goal.

I'm hovering between 208-209lbs. I've been exercising like a crazy woman and the scale is going down again. I was stuck at 211-213lbs for a little bit.

I'm floating at 210-209 this morning. I've lost 50lbs. I NEED to be 199, so I understand the anxiousness. This is for me. Though my goal is maybe a size 10 or 12(I figure that might be 160ish(I'm 5'6)

Monday morning I stepped on the scale & it said 199.5. I'll admit- I cried! More than changing sizes this was a huge moment for me. I have been in the 200's almost half of my life & all of my adult years. I never thought I would make it but I have & I'm 20 lbs. (well 19.5) away from my first goal.

Keep working hard & join me in onederland- it is amazing!!!

I felt compelled to jump on board! I know I still have 20 lbs. to go but can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have joined other threads too and it's nice to get to know a group of people. And congrats on doing so well...to all of us!!! Best wishes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
