Onderland?

[SpaceyCasey 97]

Ok so many people talk about their Onderland and with some people it's when they lose 100 pounds and others is when they get under 200. Which do you think should be the Onderland meaning

I always assumed it was when your weight began with 1. I've heard losing 100 pounds as "the century club." There's even a group that I've seen on TV called the "Joy Fit Club" for people who've lost 100 pounds naturally.

Onederland is when you hit under 200 and hit 199, the 100's

I am 11 pounds away from being in the Onderland..I can't wait! I haven't seen 100 since 2000.

That is what I've always thought it meant!

It's been since the late 80's for me! And I have no doubt, you'll get there!

I think it's so interesting the question of losing 100+ pounds naturally or -- I presume -- "unnaturally" like all the folks who get sleeves like me.

I tried and tried and tried as many of us have to lose weight. And I succeeded and failed and succeeded and failed, etc. etc. Heck, it's just a darn large mountain.

I'm a little offended about people who postulate that sleevers lost weight "unnaturally," like we've bought our way to losing weight. It's not like it's not hard work for that period of time and forever after.

I don't care if it's 100 pounds to lose or 200 or 300. Once you get past a certain amount, it looks like a darn mountain from any perspective. I'm not going to apologize for only having to still lose 104 pounds, for goodness sake.

Onderland or whatever, we should all persevere ... We're going to come out on the other side and it's going to be darn wonderful.

Cheers and looking onward !!!

I totally agree.

I've even heard that we've cheated! Well this isn't a game! I worked my ass off to lose weight before surgery and continue to work my ass off to lose weight after surgery! And I will continue to work my ass off to maintain my weight loss.
