A thread for those quickly approaching onederland



Recommended Posts

Last Monday I weighed in at 214 (down 80) and I won't weigh myself until next Monday...I've been doing the Insanity workouts so I'm itching to see how much progress I've made in these two weeks, I'm SO anxious to be in onederland...I haven't been there since............

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?

I'm there with you too. I have 6lbs to go until Onederland. I can not wait. It's been so many years.

I just broke through to onederland! It has been a long tough road so far I must admit. I too seemed to be stuck at that frustrating point where the needle on the scale just doesn't want to budge, almost like it hasn't ever used the numbers below 200 or something! One thing I did was to stay off the scales. I almost think I was sabotaging myself whenever the weight started to budge....like...okay....look at me, I have lost a couple of pounds so I guess I have earned that brownie....and let's put a scoop of ice cream on there too! Once I stopped weighing myself every 30 minutes, it seemed to help. It's still slow....I was banded a year ago and have lost about 35 pounds. I would like to lose about 35 more. It may take another year to do it at the pace I am going, but as long as it is going down...I can wait!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
