Onederland is great but I can't wait til 2sday



Recommended Posts

Hi all -

I've read several posts about people who finally make it to "Onederland" (occurs when your weight drops below 200 lbs.)

Me personally, I will be just as excited to make it to TWOsday (occurs when you make it to below 300 lbs.)

Anybody else feel like me or felt like me when they finally made it to TWOsday?

I personally haven't seen 299 lbs or lower since 1997!

10/24/08 Surgery date

378/325/220

I have to tell you I am looking forward to hitting below 300.. Currently I am at 350 and it has been a joy to get that low.. I take it 10 lbs at a time and look ward to hitting 349 and then will look forward to 339 and so on ha ha Every step is a journey and I love starting out everyday on this journey.. I am proud of myself and everyone on her.. I hit loosing 80 lbs this week since my surgery and it is amazing.. It is funny how this helps to change who you are so much. I used to hate working out.. Probably a good reason I am over weight, but now I love it.. I was walking so much recently that I had ended up getting a blister on 5 of my toes.. I had to stop walking and I was so sad because I missed it, but I have been doing some weight training since I stopped walking however, my blisters are almost healed and I have big plans to get back on the walking wagon and continue my weight training.. It amazes me though how much more I enjoy things I used to think were a chore..

Just enjoy every poud use loose. Every amount is like wonderland to me :) not just ONEderland..

Take care and best wishes

Oh, I can hardly wait for 299.... I'm stuck at 307 and go back and forth on the same two pounds for what seems like forever.... I've had a few bad days and am trying to just do liquids today to get myself back on track.... One thing I have learned is that this band is fickle and it does as it pleases.... Or so it seems anyway!!!! So, yes, "twosday" will be so awesome, and for me then it will only be 13 more pounds until I reach the 100 pounds gone goal.... They are both something I really want, but I have to put in the time and energy to achieve them..... Good luck to us all...... 299 here we come... Julie

Anyway for someone that hasn't seen 2sday in MANY years I can say I am looking forward to it I have 15lbs to go and I can't tell you how excited I am to get this far from where I was..its been a long haul but as I look back I feel good that I have come this far and actually give myself a pat on the back to to say! GOOD luck to all!!!

Every milestone is a celebration! I have to say, I'm so proud of all of us, for the weight loss but mostly for the determination to get ourselves healthy. Go us!

Each little milestone is a blessing :0). Nothing feels better than when you hit a good one. I think I have heard it called twoterville before as well but 2sday is more interesting, lol.

Happy melting to the 2sday goal!!!

      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.
