I made it.. I am finally in Onderland.....
Thank you Teresa..
I was not sure I was ever going to get here.. even my therapist said the other day the even if I didn't loose another lb that I should be proud.. made me wonder if I was at the end of things already.. but now with the scale moving again I am more determined then ever to keep it moving.. I have been fighting the same 2-3 lbs for weeks up and down.. so I was not as confident as you that I would get here this week..
I appreciate all your support.. You have always been there for me.. you were so encouraging when I would get so down on what the scale was doing.. and have been so supportive right along with all the insurance hassles too... Do you know Des Peres sent me a bill telling me I owe them another 369.00... I had to call and get that straighted out.. they owe me 182.00 from the $5000.00 I paid up front.. Finally got them straightened out.. I think they are just stalling on returning my money to me.. I will be so glad to not have to worry about the insurance and hospital bills anymore..
I am very proud of you too.. you have done so well.. You look so good.. like a new person.. You were so great looking before and now you really shine.. I cant wait to get to your size.. It may be awhile..I am sure you will be at goal before I get there...Patience.. that's what I need.. but I can have a lot more now just because I am finally in Onderland.. I fought so hard to get here...
Well off to the gym for me..
huggs..

Teresa congratulations and I know how you feel coming from 350 myself and currently 163.
I am so happy for you and that you thanked God. Every time I do an activity that I could not do before the weight loss I thank God. We.......have been so blessed and now celebrate your onderland, life. I hope you have continued success in your weight loss and even when you start your maintenance journey.
God bless you girl!

WOW! Incredibly monumental, Teresa! I'm so very happy for you as this is such a milestone...I cannot wait until I'm there, like 20 lbs. to go or so...It's hard to fathom reaching this goal, coming from a very high BMI, but you have proven it can be done. I'm so proud of your accomplishment, as I'm sure you are. Way to go, and keep on goin!

Thank you Linda.. you have made a great accomplishment too.. 169lbs lost is nothing to sneeze at.. I am in the 100's but I have lost about 104lbs total so I have a long way to go to get where you are.. my BMI is still around 42.. and you are around 34 now.. I am 4'10 and I should weight about 120lbs to be normal.anything over that I will still be overweight.. so I have a lot to do to catch up to your amount of loss and get anywhere near a normal weight.. Kudos to you for your great job of making your tool work.. I am sure you will get to Onederland soon too.. 20 lbs is nothing compared to the 169 that you already lost.. I am so proud to see people do so well on here.. It make me proud to see it and it is so encouraging..
I am proud of you too for your great accomplishments.. Keep at it and you will be in Onederland before you know it.. so get ready to call the moving van.. .. you can move into the house nest door to me.. making the move to Onederland is great and moving out of Twoterville forever was a great feeling.. it feels good to have a new address.. lol
