Onederland by September - whose with me?



Recommended Posts

Okay, so as hard to believe as it is, September is just a couple of months away. Personally, I have all sorts of things going on in September, my 29th birthday, the awaited arrival of my first niece/nephew, and all sorts of other things, including my next appointment with my doc on Sept. 7th.<O:p</O:p

SO, I'm challenging myself to get below 200lbs by Sept. 7th, which is 8 weeks away. <O:p></O:p>

Anyone else around the same weight want to join me in a little personal challenge to get to onderland??<O:p></O:p>

I'm in! I need to loose 10 pounds to get to onederland, and it is coming off really slow! Great idea! Maybe this will give me some incentive to try a little harder. :(

Not sure I can get to onederland by September, but I want to be closer for sure. I am having my 60th birthday on the 26th and going to Hilton Head with a group of others to Celebrate. Count me in for however much I can lose by then.

I have 18 pounds until onederland. But I have 19 until I am under 200. So that will be my goal. I have not been under 200 since I was about 15. I know if I try really hard I can do it. So I need to lose a little over 2 pounds a week. Im with you on this. I neede this to get me going. Thanks. Jennifer

I have 15 lbs to lose to be in wonderland. I'm a turtle, so it's probably silly of me to try and join, but I am going to anyway!

Hi everyone,

I'm so glad to have some other people involved in this, It always helps to have some inspiration/challenge from others. How is everyone doing so far? I had a doc appointment last week, and they decided NOT to give me a second fill as I was still steadily loosing. I am currently 10lbs away from being in onederland and I can almost taste it.

Let me know how you are all doing!

24 more lbs...

I'll give it a go. May not get all the way there, but extra incentive is always a plus, so any steps towards it are a bonus!

I dont know how everyone else is doing. But this no snacking thing sucks. It usualy takes me a couple of days to get used to it again. I cant even imagine weighing under 200. I know when I get there I will want to tell ever body how much I weigh. Cant wait!!

I have 9 lbs. to get to 200 and I am so excited but it seems as if I'm stuck but I am trying. So I'll join you in reaching the goal by September. We all need some kind of incentive.

      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.
