ONEderland in sight?
Hi my fellow sleevers,
well I am 3 months and 10 days post op and 2 oz short of the BIG 50 lbs. lost. Yeah, I am a slow loser, but the weight is coming off. Another 12 pounds and I can see ONEderland on the horizon.
So happy to see that it is all worth while even with the frustration that we all go through on and off and the doubts that we go though sometimes.
Hope all of you are doing great and have a wonderful Sunday. Stay strong and positive my friends.
Group Hug,
Rita
Congratulations!!! I do NOT think 50 pounds in 3 months, 10 days is slow at all! think of before surgery. What woud you have given to lose 50 lbs? How long would it have taken? Be proud of yourself, you are doing great!
Feels great doesn't it?? Don't look at the correlation between time + wt loss... look at the actual achievement you accomplished and congratulate yourself.....I have been fighting a 2 lbs battle to take me to onederland, then I remind myself, " so what? 1 day or 1 week...it WILL happen"
After all it took 25 years for me to grow to 245lbs, reaching my goal of 140lbs in one year sounds good to me.....
goal!!! August 20, 2013 age: 59 High weight: 345 (June, 2011) Consult weight: 293 (June, 2012) Pre-Op: 253 (Nov., 2012) Surgery weight: 235 (Dec. 12, 2012) Current weight: 145
TOTAL POUNDS LOST- 200 (110 pounds lost before surgery, 90 pounds lost Post Op.diabetes in remission-blood pressure normal-cholesterol and triglyceride levels normal! BMI from 55.6 supermorbidly obese to 23.6 normal!!!!
I'm hovering on the brink of Onederland myself. There WILL be fireworks.

Hey there, fellow Nov. sleever!
I'm sneaking up on Onederland too, I haven't set any timeframe for it, because I'm sure that I'll get to 201 or so, and just hover there until I lose the extra weight by pulling out all my hair in frustration!
Hang in there, and we'll get to Onederland in our own time (which is never quick enough, is it?).
See ya there!
