Countdown to Onederland!

Kim I am sorry I was in such a hurry to get back to school I was skimming post and didnt realize you made it!!!!! I only had a few minutes and the other post cracked me up and got me sidetracked, I am so proud , CONGRATS!!!!! Marimaru way to go girl!!! Y'all have a great Memorial weekend!!

Hey guys! I hope everyone had a safe and happy Memorial Day!

Thanks for all the kind congrats! I'm still hovering on 199 today! I have to admit that I didn't make the best food choices this weekend... bbq, 1/2 hotdog (no bun), potato salad, baked beans, chips, brownies, strawberry pretzel salad, reeses pb cups, and I topped it all off last night with a scoop of Rocky Road ice cream(after I walked 2 miles w/some friends)!!! EEEK! Well, today is a new day! I think I deserved a weekend of eating bad, and heck, I didn't gain any weight! I ate whatever I wanted, but not a lot! I love my band!

Okay.... so far today I've had a low-carb carnation instant breakfast and looks like tuna for lunch. I'll be good this week and get my weight-loss kick started again. I had my one year bandaversary on Saturday and was at my goal of 199, so life is pretty good right now.

How is it going everyone? Hope you are all losers this week!

HAPPY TUESDAY to all of the GREAT ONEDERLANDERS!>>.. I'm now down to 204.... only 5more lbs to onderland!!!!!!!!!!!!YIPPPEEEEEE can't wait.. I hope that everyone has a great week!!!

Congratulations!

Everyone here seems on the move, and it ain't up!

Way to go!

I am sooooooo depressed right now.

Remember how I was puking really bad and raced down to TJ??? Well, they completely unfilled me. And Dr. Martinez showed me that my stomach had actually pushed up through my band. He said that my band had not slipped. Yet, from all of the puking, my stomach pushed it's way up through my band.

And now, I am eating like a maniac. I was 210 last week at my WW meeting. Now, one week later, I weigh in at 216. Just shoot me now please.

Flutternutter - What does that mean? You said your stomach came up through your band, can they fix it? Does it mean another surgery? I am so upset for you. Don't abandon your efforts, you deserve a healthy life. Did your doc stitch it into your stomach muscles? Inquiring minds want to know...... hugs sweetie!

getting close to "onederland"....can't wait to see that 199! seems like i am stalling though....keep wavering around 38-40 lbs lost since january...i think i will recommit until i see that magical number....just the thought of not having to scoot that thing on the scale in the drs. office over to 200 notch will be "onederful"!!! keep up the good work everyone!

travelbug - the 200 pound barrier is really artifical ( meaning the difference between 199 and 201 is only two pounds) - we can break through it! I think the recommitment to writing food down and exercise will get us right over. I agree that not moving the 50 pound weight will be a delight.

Best wishes and have a great tomorrow!

Fluffer, keep your chin up.. when will you be able to get another fill?

201

And today i am going to the gym, I am giving up on the ice cream for a week, I am focusing on fruit and veggies and lean proteins.

I AM GONNA GET THERE NEXT WEEK.:cheer2:

<p>Hey guys!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Fluffer - I'm confused. It sounds like your band has slipped... I thought that any movement from where it should be was a slip? What is your doc gonna do now? I'm sooo sorry that you are going through this. Best of luck sister! I know it is difficult without a fill, but try to make good food choices.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Paulax - you are almost here! You can do it! Come on in the water is warm here in Onederland!</p>

On a side note - what is up with LBT ? I can't edit a post without it putting all that extra junk in it! Sorry guys! I guess I need to proof read my posts better before hitting the post reply button.

I don't know, but I couldn't even get in here for a week or so. It seems to me as though as some kinks are ironed out, new kinks form.

With regard to the editing posts, hit the "Go Advanced" button and you can edit properly.

AND THANKS KIM, I CAN JUST ABOUT TASTE IT.....

This site has been weird! There are hesitations, blank pages and I don't even try to edit anymore.

Flutternut - how are you doing? Are you ok? Let us know.

Best wishes to all of you on Hump Day!

I'm seriously struggling. I ate 2 servings of chicken enchiladas for dinner. They tasted sooooo damn good and I couldn't stop. The only thing that I have any control of is my walking. I finally got my pedometer set and I have walked 10,000 steps yesterday and today. It really didn't seem that hard at all. I am working at a Pizza Parlor in the morning doing food prep, and then in the afternoon I work at a middle school as a campus supervisor. I get to walk a lot at the school.
