Road to Onederland Challenge!

[Tricia K. 0]

You guys are kicking a@@!! I'm so proud of everybody. I have to apologize - I started this challenge and then disappeared. I'm doing so badly that I've gone into denial. Needless to say, Onederland is a bit far off for me now. But enough of my pity party - I get a fill next week and all will be right with the world. Great job everyone!

I'm happy to see that you have returned! Best of luck to you. *hugs*

OK, just so I can get my ticker out there-- I made it with 2 days to spare! 199.8 this AM.....Ok so it's barely onederland, but it IS onederland!

Way to go Bandayed! Congrats!!!

I unfortunately don't think that I will make it to my goal of 190 unless I receive a miracle. My daughter's communion was saturday and I think I retained a lot of Water from salty things. Although I couldn't eat very much at one time. I didn't eat a ton but I am thinking that maybe I chose the wrong things. I weighed at night and I know better, but when I weighed sunday I was back to 196 and I was at 191.8. So we will see if I have dropped the water or if I gained for real. I think I am going to have to go for another fill because I can still eat too much at 1 sitting and I am not feeling a lot of restriction. I know what I said earlier about not being able to eat much at my daughter's communion, but I munched here and there. I am so bummed out! Pray for me please, even if I don't make my goal at least maybe I can be back to 191.8 or even 192. Good luck to all of those who are so close, great try to those who just missed it,and congrats to those who reached their goal.

Well I didn't make it to onderland, but close 1 more pound would have done the trick. I am going in the right direction, had a little Detour this past week (gallbladder removal) but am going to try to stay on track. Congrats to all that made their goals.

I don't know what has happened to me since the onederland challenge -- not that I'm complaining -- but I tried so hard to go from 203 to 199 for months....now all of a sudden, I've gone from 203 to 196 in a week and a half! I guess your body just has to be ready to lose. I think it's all a game of catch up. Sometimes you can diet/exercise all you want, but your body has to be good & ready to let go of the poundage. It's always ready to GAIN poundage though! Not fair! So much easier to gain than lose.......

well, I didn't make it and I went backword. I am so bummed out it isn't funny. I am just too lazy to change my ticker.

I'd like to join the challenge....I'm 213 and REALLY looking forward to being under 200. My goal has been to reach 203 by June 4th, that will be my two year band anniversary and I want to be down 100. I'm hoping in the next few weeks I'll be under 200!

Are we going to start a new one month challange? Lets say Get to onderland or 190 by June 21st. Is anyone in? I am close to 190 but I am struggling so bad and it is driving me nuts. I am going for another fill this coming week. I hope by tuesday. Good luck!

[Tricia K. 0]

That sounds like a great idea to me. I'm still teetering between 199 and 201 even with my last fill so I need a good kick in the butt. I would love to be at 190 by June 21st. Of course, it's probably not going to happen but I'm certainly going to try.

On another note, I wonder if the fact that I no longer display my signature has something (subconsciously) to do with my stall in weight loss. Hmmm...

Yes!!! Another challange. I really think that the last one helped me stay on track. Should we start another thread or just keep this one going?

[MiaHalliwell 4]

I'll start a new one.
