Road to Onederland Challenge!



Recommended Posts

Wow, Congrats Tricia!!! That's gotta feel soooooo good!

I was at 219 as of early last week and have lost nothing this week unfortunately. It's definitely due to going away for the weekend and drinking a bunch of booze! :D:):D Oh well, at least I haven't gained I suppose. Everyone is starting to notice that I've lost some weight although the scale doesn't show it really. I wonder if I've lost a few inches as they say?

Anyway, it may not be possible for me to reach Onederland with you guys, but I'm sticking with ya nonetheless!!

Okay, I went from 209.8 to 209.4, hA!! I will count it! I have to get serious there are only 18 days until the end of the month...I can do this. How hard is it to lose 10 pounds?? I could drop that in a week back when I was being serious. I need to start working out again to get this weight off!

That's major a vacation with no gain is a complete success!!! Between Easter, my birthday, my daughters birthday, and going on vacation to Florida next week, I'm not sure I'll make the onederland deadline.....................

Well, how did y'all do on Easter break? I gained about 3 pounds unfortunately... Went out to dinner 3 TIMES with my BF's family and they don't know I'm banded, sooooo.... instead of ordering solids and worrying aobut PB'ing at dinner, I ate Pasta, eggplant parm and veal parm!!! Aghh!! Plus, lots and lots of booze and several Cookies and sweets! And here I am getting soooooo discouraged, but what do I honestly expect to happen right?? I guess 3 pounds isn't actually all that bad in a way. I just get sad because I look at the calender and realize it's been almost 3 months since surgery and I haven't lost much at all :confused::(:D

Ok, enough whining! I am back on track this week ladies!!!

I was able to keep it together for the easter holiday, no gain but no loss either. I am going to get serious! I really need to enter "onederland" for my sanity.

Ok, I weighed in yesterday but "aunt flo" came to visit yesterday morning and I always gain with that. It was only a pound so no real gain there. Next tuesday will be a real weight for me. I am going for a walk today if I can stand to be on my feet any longer, LOL. I am in such pain. I need new feet, LOL.

      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.
