I MADE IT! Woohoo! I thought I was there on Friday but, well, you know... After a few days though, I finally believe it! Hope to never see TWOterville again. 10 fills and those pesky ups and downs but I'm on the track and finally losing. Hooray! (Can you tell I'm excited???)

I am at 201. The bodybugg has ended my plateau. I am in love with this gadget. So hopefully I should be seeing onderland sometime next week.

Hello Onederland Warriors! I am so sorry that I haven't been on here more often to cheer you guys on!

A BIG HUGE CONGRATS TO ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE REACHED ONEDERLAND!!!! YOU SHOULD BE SOOOO PROUD!!!

I want to say to those of you who are on the verge... COME ON YOU CAN DO IT!!!! DRINK THAT Water, EAT THAT Protein AND GET MOVING!!!

Update on me - well, my weight loss has slowed some (4 lbs amonth or so), but I am now around 20 lbs from my goal. I have always said that I wanted to weigh 155 because that puts me in the normal BMI category, but my current goal is to reach 159 lbs! I started this journey at 318, so at 159 I will be officially half of the body I once was! How awesome is that?! It would be Onederful if I could achieve this by the new year! I feel great, I have gone from a size 26 to a size 10/12 in pants and large tops! This band is awesome!

For those of you just starting out, you can and will meet your weight loss goals! Just work that band people!

Have a Onederful week everyone!

I am 7.5 pounds away from One-derland. My original goal was to get there by Christmas. I had my surgery on Aug 9. I am going to see my family for the first time since I had the surgery next week. I was hoping to be down to one-derland by then, but I don't think I am going to make 7.5 pouns in 9 days. But who knows, I have been steadily dropping 3-4 a week. Congrats to all of you that have made it already. I remember seeing it when I was on Atkins several years back. I didn't stay there very long. At least now I know once I am there, I am there for good. Oh I just love this little band!

Thanks Tracy! I have been avoiding the candy like the plague. I have not bought any, nor do i plan to. I know I would eat it all. You are going to get threre too!

I always said that I would be perfectly happy if I just got down to a normal size. Like a 14 or whatever. Well folks I am in a very comfortable 14 and it definitely is not small enough lol. I always thought I just had big bones....yeah not so much. I guess I just always had a big ass and a big fat belly.

LOL Babygrl! I can totally relate. I too thought if I could just be a 16 or a 14 I would be thrilled. Nope...I am happy to be in a comfortable 16, but no where near at my goal! I think maybe I just didn't believe I could be a 16 or a 14 again. After all my previous diet attempts! But now I know we can do it!!!

And the big bones thing too...very true.

10.5 pounds to onederland. I want it NOW. I just get to a certain weight and seem to fluctuate there for a month or so. I was at 220 for about 3 months, now I have been around 210 for about 3 weeks. I am afraid I will be stuck here for a while. I am hoping something kicks in. That being said, this time of year in the past I would have gained from now until New Years so at least I am going in the right direction!!!!

I finally made it to One-derland!

I can't remember the last time my weight ever started there. Very nice feeling. My next goal is 196 - then I will be considered Overweight - and not obese by BMI standards. Almost there!!

      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.
