How long it took to get to onederland?



Recommended Posts

Hey sleevers, I was just wondering if any of you were in your 250s and now in ONEDERLAND & how long it you take to get there? I had my sleeve on 4/18/11 about 18 weeks post op and I started @ 264Ibs on pre-op; 250Ibs on surgery date, and currently 206Ibs. Seems kinda slow. Total from pre op: 58Ibs and from surgery: 44Ibs. Trying to get an idea of how everyone else is doing. Thanks for any suggestions and comments!!!

I had surgery on April 11th at 244lbs. I just reached onederland about a week and a half ago. I am also a slow loser. Today is my 4 months anniversary of surgery and I have lost 51 lbs since then. The rest of my weight loss is pre op as well. Looks to me like you are right on par with me! Maybe we are normal after all?? lol Congrats on the weight you have loss thus far and good luck in continuing to lose!!!!

I also had surgery on april 11, 2011

Shout out to my surgery sister, katmagmom!!! 4 month is today

I am currently hovering at 216 and my surgery weight was 265. So you are doing better than me unsure.gif

Since surgery I have lost 49 lbs. My total loss for the year is over 72 lbs...I was in denial and didn't really acknowledge my weight. I use the start weight of 288. Maybe if I hypnotize myself I would be able to recall that horrific number that I seem to have blocked from my memory wink.gif

Heather is right and hope your feeling good after your surgery. It took me 8 months to get to onderland, yes slow but still feels just as amazing as if it would have taking me 4 months.

You all think those numbers make you a slow loser? It seems good to me. What am I missing?

      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.
