4MRB4PHOTO 3,900 Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) Measure your weight after going to the bathroom, while fully undressed and wearing no jewelry. (This isn't a fetish of mine, I just want to see you reach 199.9 lbs or less today. ) Keep up the great work. Edited March 15, 2016 by 4MRB4PHOTO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted March 15, 2016 Avoid salt and sugar today, drink a ton of Water, and do as @@4MRB4PHOTO recommended. Weigh yourself first thing in the morning, after peeing, and completely naked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

needtorecover 574 Posted March 15, 2016 I'm very far from Onederland. But I'm looking forward to getting below 274 274 was my lowest weight in recent memory. Once I get below 274 that will be the lightest I've been in at least 4 years. 237 is my next magic number. That's when I'll have lost 50% of my excess fat. Then my next milestone is Onederland. I have 17 pounds until my first goal is met! Woo hoo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaitlynm 335 Posted March 15, 2016 I'm right there with you.....200.5 this morning. I'm just getting off of a three week stall which has made this really frustrating. I had 3 goals within 10 pounds. First 203 which put me at a 34 BMI, then 199.9 for Onderland, and finally 194 for the lowest I've weighed in over 20 years. Of course right when I was getting there I hit the stall. What was really cruel was I hit 203 and then gained 1.5 pounds to start the dreaded stall. I hope to join you either tomorrow or the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustWatchMe 7,117 Posted March 16, 2016 You'll get there. But if you're like me, then it will bounce back up over 200 briefly. Now that's frustrating. My advice is the very first day you see 199.9, don't weigh yourself again for another week. And the day that you do, make sure you have not had anything salty the night before and that you have had plenty of Water the day before. That 199-200-199 bounce was enough to drive me mad.
