Onederland Finally!

Well, I finally did it.  I'll take that 199 on my scales this morning, any day.

I consider myself a slow loser - a person who just looks at sf jello and gains a pound - s person who has to fight with the pounds coming off since month 6 - but hey, I made it finally.

Persistence pays off or maybe in my case, a gallbladder surgery this past Thursday?

I noticed that after i had the gallbladder surgery, my rings were really loose on my fingers.  Not like the day before surgery.  I'm thinking my body was swelled from a bad gallbladder and now that it's gone, so isn't maybe some of the water retention problems.  Though I really never noticed any swelling, it seems funny how my rings are now falling off my fingers even after 1 day after surgery.

My stomach is swelled right now, but it seems like the weight is starting to fall off once again.  Hm-mm, started having gallbladder problems (stones and it was enlarged) in Dec. and that is when the weight slowed way down to about 3-5 lbs a month and now since surgery I have lost 5 lbs?  Let me see, that was in 4 days.  Yeah sure, maybe it was jus****er weight - who cares!!!



Anyway, had to share.

Congrats on making it to onederland!!

Hopefully, by the end of this week, I'll be doing the onederland dance with you! I've been hovering around the 199 mark for a few days, now. I'm at 200, then 201, then 202, back to 200. I did see it on my scale the other day, but I had to cheat by leaning way far over to the left, so it didn't count.

WTG, I hope that is me in a week or so as I am currently at 208. I want to feel the high of onederland after seeing all of you talk about it so much. I am very happy for you that you have reached this milestone. Good luck.
