Waiting to get in to onederland



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 2nd June this year and I am waiting patiently to drop into onederland I have 5 lbs to go!!! I am so excited I cannot even remember when I saw that kind of weight it was so long ago.

My journey since June has been amazing, the weight hasn't dropped off me quickly it has been slow and steady.

I was anxious at first when I would read about how much people would lose, I would compare myself to everybody on the boards.

Now I am chilled I just listen to my own body, I weigh myself once a week and if I am the same I don't stress I know it will come off.

I have lost 58 lbs since surgery and 75lbs since April! How awesome is this

I have about 60lbs left to lose and I expect it could take another year-will I get to 145 who knows

Postive things about weight loss surgery

I am more agile and less clumsy

I can fit into airplane seats and the belt is loose

My clothes look so much better on me

I can feel bones

I fit into normal clothes

I have gone from a size 22 to a size 14!

Congratulations! I recently rode in an airplane and was also shocked at the room to spare. Isn't that fascinating?

I've also had slow, but steady weight loss since my surgery June 12th. For the longest time, I didn't really believe I would see onederland, but this morning the scale read 210- and I can see it coming! I'll be so happy when that number on the scale starts with a 1- and just think we go to the doctor and they no longer have to slide that bar over to the 200 mark!

I had surgery May 15th this year. I was 305 day of surgery and 328 when I started the liquid diet 3 weeks before surgery. Today I am 215! Onederland is so close! I haven't been there since sometime in the 1990's. I am beyond thrilled and know that this is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself! I have gone from a size 26 to a size 16. I look and feel so much better. And out in the world people actually treat me better (which is a reflection on society and not me) but whatever - I will take it! I move easier, can wear heels again, things don't ache like they used to, and I can actually run again. I couldn't be happier!!!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
