karinm 14 Posted November 16, 2014 I am so excited. I have hit onderland I have not seen that on the scale in about 10 years. I am four and 1/2 months post op and have lost 84 pounds. I have about 50 more to go to get to goal. So happy about making this decision to have the sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4LgrLife_53 82 Posted November 16, 2014 I hope to get into onederland soon. I am already pleased with my decision to have this surgery. I am down 32 lbs since I started dropping weight just prior to my pre-op diet (Oct 23rd) and now into the 11th day post-op. I have already dropped from a 22 Womens Pant size (22W) to a size 18. I haven't seen my weight under 220 since before my youngest son was born in 1988 (almost 27 years ago). This is a major accomplishment!!! I have been wearing 2X mens shirts for years and finally getting into women's clothing again. I love it!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flab2fabulous 18 Posted November 21, 2014 Congrats! I can't imagine how you feel. I have never weighed under 300lbs in my adult life. So, getting under 300lbs and then under 200lbs will be amazing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wynnie 186 Posted November 29, 2014 As of this morning I am in ONEDERLAND! I never thought I'd be back here, and I feel lucky to see it again. It's funny how the small part of my family who know I had VSG are not as enthusiastic as you'd think as they may feel that it's been easy, and even my husband realized the huge effort that goes Into this, but said to me a few days ago that he didn't realize all the hard work and dedication that is involved, nor did he know you can easily gain weight. He has been very supportive every step of the way along with our sons, they've celebrated every milestone and are my cheerleaders. January of this year I started at 303 and now am 199, 104 pounds gone, of which 71 pounds is post sleeve on June 12, 2014. Goal is clearly in my sights!
