Just for fun since I am having my surgery 9/29 and have been doing a lot of "mental reshaping" as I like to call it, and I am feeling on the precipe of an impending rapid reduction..

When people go from 200s to 100s they call it "wonderland".

When people go from 300s to 200s they call it "twoterville"

I have yet to come across a name for going from 400s to 300s, so I think it is our job of the BMI over 50 forum to give ourselves a name we can proudly proclaim at 399! As for me, starting at 491, I will shout to anyone and show off my baggy pants to anyone who cares to listen and I dont care what they think! I plan to celebrate every little pound and be happy at every weight I am as I slide on down!

So, anyone got any good ideas?

Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.

HW 491, BMI 70.4 *** SW 444, BMI 63.7 *** CW 364, BMI 52.5

What a wonderful thing to try and come up with. I'm gonna work on it. I don't have a very creative mind, but my partner does, so I'm gonna have her think about it too.

I think you should tell everyone that will listen about every pound you lose. It's a cause of celebration!!! Some people wont understand, but who cares...you will!!! When I fit into that theater seat..I literally had to stop myself from standing up and saying.."LOOK!!! I FIT!!!! LOL...

BTW, I love reading your posts. Always so positive and uplifting. Keep them up!! They help more than you know.

"Hit the trifecta" is all that comes to mind so far. Ugh.

I got nuthin, but it's a good idea. Love your posts too. Your surgery date is in my mind. I'll be channeling good vibes to you.

I called it Threedom! I was sooooo happy when I got there -- since I had to escape the Four-est to get there... And now I'm in Twoterville!

Threedom land! I love that. I'm there now. I was over in the Fourest, but have made my way down. (My highest was 427) I weighed at the surgeon as 399. We'll see my weight on Thursday when I go for my pre-op class. I'm weighing right under at home now.
