Countdown to Onederland!



Recommended Posts

Been on a plateau for at least a couple of monthes and could'nt quite break the 200 mark I kept boucing around 204-205-201 etc. Had a fill about six wks. ago and it seems like it's just now kicking in or something I know it seems like a long delay,but food just doesn't seem to have that hold on me the last 2or3 wks. like before. Any way the last wk. I dropped to 195.6 or 198 and have stayed there so I think it's safe to say I've made it to onederland even though my goal is 175or 180.:)

ditto! I have also been bouncing around those numbers! I had my first fill 2 weeks ago and still nothing has happened....i don't get as hungry in between meals now, so i'm loving that, but i am so ready to start losing again. this has been the first time since surgery that i've gone two months without steadily losing little by little. i'm not too down in the dumps though...i'm loving the new me:) i wanted to be in onederland by oct. 1st, but that didn't happen....i'm setting a new goal for dec. 1st. i love this forum!!!

I have read everything you all have written and am hoping that I can join you all in Onederland. I am still to be banded (hopefully in the next month) but have been losing weight and am down to about 229 from my heaviest of over 260. I love the attitude in here and how encouraging everyone is. It is awesome to see the journey you have all been on! I just know I will be able to do it with your support!!!

Good Job everyone!!

I finally made it. And after a rough week as well. I didn't chew my food well enough (I know slap my hand!) and was in terrible pain due to irritation of my esophogus. My doc completely unfilled me and I am going to have to keep it in onederland using pure will power. I can and will do it though, cause this is a GREAT FEELING. You all are doing so well and have been a big inspiration to me. Good luck on the continued weight loss.

I just found this thread, woo hoo! This morning my scale read 199.8!!!!! I haven't been below 200 in about 3 years. I am SO excited. Just hoping that the next time I weigh myself it doesn't say 203 because I've been hovering between 202 and 204 for about 2 weeks, argh!!!

I am getting closer! I am at 202.5 this morning, the day after turkey day, and I am thrilled. I have one of those medical type scales with the weights that you slide back and forth...anyway, when I get to 200 or below I will get to move the BIG weight to the 150 mark (then use the small weight for the rest) and I am so excited.

 

I had my first filll this week, so I hope to be in ONEDERLAND no later than DEC 1. Woo Hoo

I just found this thread and love it! I am at 212 and really want to get out of the 2's by January 1st- Christmas would be even better. I think posting on this thread will be a great motivator to push me to Onederland. Look forward to meeting you all! :(

      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.
