Linda, funny you should post that. I have signed up to run a 5k and I just finished my 3.2 miles on the treadmill. I am fixing to eat some edamame, and my scales said 198.0 this morning. I am celebrating a little differently this time!! BTW, this may be TMI, but I feel so attractive today...maybe even sexy. LOL DH is giving me "the look" again. Our 13th anniversary is Monday. I dare say it will be the best one in several years.

Stuck!!

Congrats to all of you for making it to Onederland! I am currently stuck just a few pounds away...it was my TOM last week so I was up 1-2 lbs; I'm very consistent with sticking to my diet, so I know it's not my eating. I've been out walking in this beautiful weather and did some raking over the weekend too. I'm hopeful that this week I'll get back to some progress! I really can't wait to see that number on the scale!

Is it too early to join you?

I was banded in July of last year and I would like to try and be in onederland by my bandiversary. So, that is 2.5 months away...

I'm currently at 237lbs....what do you think? Probably not possible, but I am going to give it everything I have. What an amazing accomplishment that would be...so...38lbs to get there...divided by 2.5 months...approx 10 weeks...means a loss of 3 lbs per week (plus two)...that way sounds like it is doable.

I started at 338 and and just reached 100lbs down after 9.5 months....

I love this band!!!

So...can I join you?

Rain

I feel like I'm getting out of the barely in onederland stage. You know, where each morning you hope that you haven't added water weight or TOM comes and you're back over 200. Now that I'm at 193 I think I have finally kissed the 200's goodby. What a onederful feeling!!

renewed hope:

I got so excited when I hit Onederland and since then I've been see-sawing back and forth 199, 200, 199, 200. I'm hoping that I can push it down to 197 so that I don't kick back up to 200 ever again.

Congratulations on 193. I'm jealous.

Sue
