ONEDERLAND! - Never thought I'd see the day!



Recommended Posts

This is the BEST decision of my life.

This morning, I woke up, weighed myself as always and I FINALLY have a 1 in front of my weight rather than a 2!

I was banded about 4.5 months ago (7/29/2010) and have lost 75 pounds now.

I can no longer wear (or no longer have to wear) the W clothes :D and can actually buy clothes in the normal sections of the stores.

YAY ME!!!

You go girl! I cannot imagine seeing the 100's I cant remember the last time i saw that, probably middle school and Im 36 now..lol. I think too that I will never get there! I started at 300lbs and am down almost 50lbs so half way there but I still can't imagine seeing that on a scale!! Congrats to you and great job !!

Yay congrats! It's definitely hard to imagine when we're starting this process that we'll actually be able to reach onederland.

I hope to get there soon...just 30 more lbs and I'll be joining you!!!

You're an inspiration...keep going!

CONGRATS TO YOU! A great feeling too, is to just throw away the "Woman Within" catalogs, because everything in them is too big for you! Good post. Karen(kll724)

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
