Onederland!!

Thank you, I really appreciate all the kind words. You have made such a big accomplishment with your weight loss, wow!                                   Bonnie

Congrats, Bonnie, that's great progress! It took me  two years to get to onederland. I started out a little higher than you, at 347, and it took three years to get to goal, 170 (which was half my weight). You will get there too. Those of us who are older lose slower. This is a known fact. And that's not all so bad, because slower losers give their skin a chance to catch up (my mother says my face doesn't look saggy, although there are other parts of me that do!).  Welcome to Onederland, pull up a chair and get comfortable 'cause you're never leaving.

Thank you, Eileen, and I know you worked really hard to get to your goal.  I'm almost scared about getting to my goal(160) because I'm so afraid I won't be able to maintain my weight.  But I'm going to keep trying!                            Bonnie

Oh Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.... IT"S ONEDERLAND!    WHOO HOO!  CONGRATULATIONS!

Ha Ha Ha!  It is like being in a whole new place, Donna.  I'm always feeling bones in places I never knew had bones.  Like my tailbone, for instance, ouch!                          Bonnie

Bonnie, Congratulations. It is a HUGE event and something to share, screaming from the roof tops!!                                             Annette

Thanks, Annette, I appreciate it!  I do feel like jumping for joy, and I could probably actually jump for real if I really tried.  You are an inspiration to us all.  I don't post much, but I always read what you post, it's very helpful, and funny!                                           Bonnie

Congratulations! That is fantastic! I know what you mean about onderland. I entered it almost a month ago. Now I am at another stall. I was in one for 3 weeks before and now another one. I have more stalls than a public bathroom! Geez!         

Sitting here chuckling... more stalls than a public bathroom... that's funny.... Millie

Brenda, congrats to you too!  These stalls are terrible.  Even though I try not to, I get in such a funk about them. It seemed like once I hit 6 months post op, my weight loss really slowed down. I guess we just have to keep hanging in there.                             Bonnie
