Default How close are you to ONDERLAND??!

I started my weightloss journey at a weight of 263, and joined 3fc at 258 as of this morning I am at 204.0! I can't believe I've gone from a size 24/22 to a 18/16 since January 3rd! It's so exciting knowing that in just 5pounds I will be in the 100's!!! I will allow myself to wear/try on the new corsets I bought! I've wanted one for a long time but knew they where so sexy and that I would look horrible in them so I'm excited to be able to get one and feel confident enough to wear them!

Is anyone else super close to onederland?? What was ur starting weight? What are you going to do to celebrate? Is thier something you will finally "allow" yourself to do when you hit it??

ID love to hear from some others!!

Hey! congrats on your weight loss! I started my journey April 4th at 260 and today i sit here at 212.6! I never thought i'd be so close to the 100's again-i just didn't think it was in the cards for me...but like justin bieber says-NEVER SAY NEVER! haha. I don't know what i'll do when i hit it-probably the ugly cry! Maybe allow myself to go shopping for some shorts? we will see!

Bri-thanks! And congradulations to you as well! I can't believe how much better I feel knowing I CAN do this! I can't wait to be under 200 and able to say to my sister I did! She has weighed at her highest 197 and constantly brags that she's never been over 200...it's so annoying especailly considering she is currently 8 months pregnant and @ 187. She has only gained 5 pounds her whole pregnancy and starves herself and her baby....she's stupid when t comes to her pregnancy and body. Sorry for that rant don't know where it came from... I've just been really stressed worrying about the two of them.

If my thighs ever shrink down I might buy some shorts, they would be wonderful in this Florida summer!lol

Congratulations!!!!

Onderland was my first mini-goal and it felt awesome to hit it.

I started at 240lbs (after giving birth to my daughter) and I was 225lbs when I joined 3FC. It took me about half a year to reach Onderland but oh man was it worth it!

ETA: I also wanted to mention (I just mentioned this on another thread with someone who is the same height as us) that after hitting Onderland I noticed that any loss that I had was significantly more visible. I couldn't see the difference nearly as much before but now after getting into the 100's everything shows up more!

I'm at 204 also. ONEderland is going to be a huge moral victory for me. In college, my weight fluctuated between 175-195 pounds. It NEVER went over 200. Once I would hit 196-197 I would FLIP out and start watching what I ate. It also seemed like no matter what I did, my weight just wouldn't go over 200. I'd be in the 190s have a few days of binge eating and I'd only be up a pound or two.

I'm now 24 and I've been over 200 for the past 2 years. It hasn't been a great 2 years personally, but I'm getting back on track. During this time, I've made some half-hearted weight loss attempts but the lowest I've been is 202. For some reason I couldn't get over the hump of 200. Then the holidays and a spring break vacation put a huge dent in my efforts. This year I was as high as 225 (the absolute highest number I've ever seen). About a month ago I got really serious and have been doing the 12 weeks to take off challenge. I started 4 weeks ago at 216 and am now down to 204. I absolutely can't wait to hit the 100s.

I think it's going to take me about 2 more weeks. Tomorrow I'm running a 5K and have been trying to eat a little more so that I have energy. The extra carbs will probably result in the scale not moving much. But next week WATCH OUT!!

Running- Thank you so much for sharing that last bit! I've been having my doubts because i personally don't think I've seen much of diffirence. My bf and other fmily members say they've seen a change but I doubt them sometimes. When I look in the mirrior I swear by thighs have gotten BIGGER then they were before(which is sad cuz they were already huge..). I'm looking forwardto the day that I'm happy with what I see in the mirrior.

Scarlett-congrats on all the weight loss! I gave myself the same two week time table. I really hoping to be in the 100s on the 25th. One of my very old friends(middle school.lol) is getting married and just about everyone I went to school with will be there so it's kinda like a middle school class reunion. Lol. Good luck with the marathon! I'm still not a runner...so I deft admirer those that do!

Congrats - that's awesome progress!

I'm as close as you are but I'm closer than I ever thought I'd be a year and a half ago and am currently at 224.

I don't know if I'll celebrate but I am definitely going horseback riding. I used to love going but then I got too big and I know I probably COULD go now but I'd just feel better knowing I'm under 200 before I got on a horse again.

I'm hovering around 203... I'm having a really difficult time breaking through to ONEderland. I keep getting down to around 204.2 and then the next day it's back up to 204.5. Grr!

I was at my highest weight (226) last August... started just eating right and going to the gym and was down to 205 around November, and then the holidays happened. Not sure what happened after that - I was able to maintain around there 210, luckily not gaining everything back.

I joined 3FC around 207lbs, and even though it feels like it's slow going at this point - I know I'll be able to break into ONEderland soon. I CANNOT wait for that day. I haven't seen much change in myself yet, but I can definitely feel a difference (more energy already) - so I can't wait to see how much better things get!

As of today, I made it!

We'll see if it lasts - and I'll not really celebrate until I can stay under for a handful of days in a row for sure, since my weight bounces up and down like crazy...

But seeing 199.4 on the scale today made me dance!

Congrats MidnightRaven!!!

I've been hovering around 204-205 for the last two weeks and I'm starting to get really fed up with myself. In the past I've kind of stopped at this number. I'm now determined to have a GREAT week and be in the 100s by 4th of July. Time to lace up the running shoes....
