I made it to Onederland

After 22 months, I've made it to onederland - my scale read 199.8 this morning.  It's been about 15 years since I weighed less than 200 pounds.  I continue to feel blessed for the opportunity to have had gastric bypass surgery.  It has changed my life and, most importantly, significantly improved my health. 

Thanks to everyone at OH for their continuing support and encouragement.  You've helped me learn and grow over the past few years, and my success is due, in no small part, to my OH family.

Kellie, It is truly great when someone on this board makes to onederland.  Congratulations, you deserve it.   Jeanne

Thanks, Jeanne!  I agree that making it to onederland when you start out with a BMI over 50 is pretty amazing.  For a while, I never thought it would happen to me.  But patience and persistence paid off.  Thanks again for your kind words -  Kellie

Oh my gosh!!!!   FANTASTIC!!!  Can you send some of those vibes down my way?????                                                                

Good vibes are on their way!!!!  I've been losing 3-4 pounds per month for the past 6-8 months, so it's slow going now.  But it can absolutely be done!!! So vibe, vibe, vibe to you!!!  Keep up your great work and you'll see onederland before you know it! Kellie

Congratulations!   There is something magical about breaking that 200 mark.  Keep up the good work. Sally 398/170/164

Thanks, Sally.  Magical is a good description!  I got on the scale five times this morning to make sure I wasn't seeing things.  It just kept reading 199.8.  Amazing -  Kellie
