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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
