In Onederland For The First Time In 30 Years!



Recommended Posts

I wanted to say it here. Over 30 years ago I graduated from High School. I weighed 199lbs. That was the last time I saw the 100's.

Until today. I stepped on the scale and there it was....199 lbs.

I cried....tears of happiness, and relief, because that damn scale messed with me for days at 200lbs. and some odd ounces. LOL

I just really wanted to share this with everyone. Even if nobody responds. I'm so amazed at what I have done, so far.

My progress pictures are in my gallery.

146 lbs gone.

49 to go!

That's awesome, I can't wait to get there myself. I haven't been under 200 since about 7th grade so I can totally relate.

Thanks everyone! That was so nice you took a moment to congratulate me! Feels so good!!

I don't even remember being at what I set my goal weight. (150) The smallest I remember is 179 in 7th grade.

I'm probably looking at my 5th grade weight! lol I actually want to lose more, as I'm really short. My surgeon wasn't having it. He said he never wants to see me below 125.

The BMI chart he referred to, to show me how big I was, is the same one I am looking at that is telling me that I should weigh between 113-120 lbs. *shrugs*

I know this, ...something I never ever realized before, I was meant to be tiny. You should see my wrists! I had no idea.

So inspirational...I hope to get there soon. I'm stuck in the 220s and can't seem to get out. I can't wait to be able to post that I made it to onederland as well

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
