Hey all!! I am on the quest to onederland as well

My goal is to be there & stay 1 plus pound away by the end of May. I am excited to join and get support of others with the same goal


lets gooooooooooooooo

I am hoping to be solidly back in the 50's this week. I know it is only Wednesday, but I am going strong and am only having mild sugar cravings. So far I am able to beat them.

I was wondering if there is a group set up, or only this thread? If there is a group, please let me know and I don't want to miss anything.

Chathi888 there are various groups in the support group... Things like, getting out of the 250s, 100+club! etc. this is Judy a thread for those who feel the same about that number 200.

Down a bit more! My goal for May was 226 (losing 7 pounds in May), but I would be extra happy to get to 225. That would mean 50 pounds to go.

Lost half a pound this week, putting me at an even 205. I'll totally take it.

What's more exciting though is that I managed to run my very first 5k this week!

Way to go Elladorine!

The last time I had a toe even slightly in onederland (198) was at the end of 2012. Since then I've had a hard time keeping focused on making good food choices and keeping active! The end of this winter/early spring was probably my worst, not caring at all about what I was doing to myself or telling myself I'll get back on track "tomorrow". Tomorrow never came and here I am. Getting my eating back on track and trying to squeeze in exercise when I can! Shooting for onederland before the end of this year.

Yay! I met my monthly goal today and just in time as I'm about to hit my two week (plus) stall out once my period arrives. (Boo!)

So.. that leaves 26 pounds to go. Much better than the 42.6 pounds I had to lose when I started on April 1st!

I have had such a great week, I am dreading the weekend. What is worse, is I am dreading Memorial weekend more. We are going camping. Yikes four days of junk food avoidance. I will have to be very diligent.

berryblondeboys You're doing awesome!

cathi888 I know that feeling of worry before a camping trip :/ Are you planning the food or is someone else? The last few camping trips we went on, I've still brought some junky snacks to appease the bf, but I also bring along more fruit and veggies and healthier snacks (apples w/PB, kiwis, carrot sticks with individual packs of hummus). It helped me make some better choices than I usually do. Have fun and don't stress too much!

I am still so close yet feel so far from Onederland. I keep saying "maybe next week." My weigh-in this week was the same as last. After a completely abnormal week for eating and some time off from the gym, I am looking forward to getting back to my normal routine.

Hi everyone! I'm on a mission to get to onderland. Well, I've been on this mission for 10+ years, since I left onederland. The last few years I've been saying that I'll get there by the time I turn 30, but that being in a few weeks, it won't happen.

However, I'm down 30+ pounds from a few years ago. I lost even more on Ideal Protein, but it's not sustainable in the long term for me. I need to keep it low carb and keep up the exercise (I'm doing c25k... killer) and trying to eat reasonably.

So, hi!

edit: I remember you, Melissa! Welcome back!

Hello fellow Onderland pilgrims!!

Glad to hear you're having such a great week berryblondeboys, cathi888, and Elladorine!

I'm happy with this week myself. I've lost 2.5 lbs., putting me at 237 with 37.5 to go to Onderland.

So many people doing great and inching closer!

I'm in. I have been in a funk the last couple weeks because of some lack of support (just flat out criticism from family). I haven't gained any weight for a couple months which is great, but I'm still dying to get to onederland. Until then I need to focus on loving myself and taking care of my body, and not becoming upset because of the 2 at the beginning of my weight and just throwing in the towel. We can do it!

I did it! You guys have been so awesomely supportive. It felt like I would never get here with how slow the loss has been lately. I'll be seeing some of you on the other side very soon it seems!
