hey everyone sorry i have been absent from this thread for some time. things are going pretty good for me! I am so close to the 230s and I cant believe it.. if i get to the 220s it will be the first time since 2005/2006 ish..i honestly dont know when I was last at onderland, i really dont remember. I would imagine sometime in middle school, when I was still growing (taller and wider!!!). It feels good to know we are all in this together and no one is giving up..

OH WAY TO GO PHOENIX!!

Hi everybody! Sorry it has been so long since I checked in, I started summer school courses, the kids are out of school for the summer, and I have been sick, it has been a rough few weeks. I started Nutrisystem a last week, and so far the food has been pretty good, nothing I just can't stand, so I'm excited for that! I'm approaching my second trimester very soon, so I'm not sure how much weight I'll lose, but I'm going to just keep at the nutrisystem and walking, if nothing else, I'll be able to get lots more weight off once the baby is born, but so far, just eating the nutrisystem diet (the meal plus the added fruit and veggies) I am feeling better and more energized.

I promise not to stray for so long next time. It sounds like everyone is doing great here!!! Keep up all the hard work ladies, you are all doing fantastic!!!

My appetite is dead...

It's 3:30pm and I've had a graham cracker and 2 pieces of gum.
I guess that oatmeal in the fridge is some good....I hope, 'cause girl still needs to eat

I'm doing okay. Wonderslim has been a miracle for me. I've lost 8lbs this month and I'm actually looking forward to weigh-in on Sunday. =X

Mutable Paradox - That is wonderful!!! How is Wonderslim all together? How does it taste? Does it keep you feeling full? Wow! 8lbs is really great!! Keep up the good work!

For me, which is the key something that works for me it is great. I have liked 90% of everything I have tried and I am never been this NOT hungry in a long time. I feel great and it works for my schedule and cooking abilities. I just got back from a workout and I have never had this much energy. Lovin' it. Thanks for the encouragement!

Glad to hear Nutrisystem is working for you! If I weren't so picky with textures and odd things like that I would have kept up with that. Keep it up!

You ladies are rockin! All your progress makes me giddy! I start thinking I can do it tooo! I have lost a pound since joining earlier this week, but I keep messing up. Words of wisdom or shame please... I need both

Hola Ladies: So far so good...i peeked at the scale and whoop whoop...252..in the words of borat "so excite" (haha stupid quote..but my coworker got it stuck in my head)...ahhh...i couldn't not done it without your guys motivation....i know we can all do this...one little step at a time...together we march!!

Mutable Paradox - I'm sooo excited Wonderslim is working for you and that you are seeing great results!!! Keep up the good work! You are right about some of the textures of the nutrisystem, that is the one thing I've had to get use too, but so far I am adjusting just fine. You keep up your good work, I'm proud of you!

Sarah - YES YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Just take it slowly and one step at a time!!! We are all here for you!!

Danitz - 252lbs is great!! You are well on your way to onederland!! Keep it up, you will be there before you know it!! You are doing great!

Kim - I think it is wonderful that you have found a buddy for the summer, no doubt you will keep each other motivated! So far I really like all the Nutrisystem breakfasts, and the mac and cheese (yes it was a nutrisystem entree lol!), and I really haven't found anything I just can't stand to eat, so I'm excited about it! Your buffalo chicken lunch sounds absolutely fantastic! Keep up the great work sweety, you are doing wonderful!

Well, as for me, everything is going great! I go back to the Dr on the 28th to make sure baby is growing and healthy, I will be 11 weeks at that point. The thought that I'm pregnant again hasn't really set in yet, since I'm only at 9 weeks now, but soon enough I'll be feeling the hicups and movements of baby, and be hearing the heartbeat at the appointments, then it will sink in. I'm just glad I'm in the early stages of pregnancy this summer (it's already hit 105 a few times this week) and my first son was born in July 2007, I remember how it was to be pregnant in the summer My second son was born December of 2008 and it looks like this baby will make his debute sometime in late December, unless they change my due date again.

As for nutrisystem, everything is going great. I only started 3 days ago, and I sneaky peeked at the scale, and I'm already down 2lbs *happy dance*. There is a town festival here tonight, so around 7pm the DH and I are going to take the kids for some evening fun, and I am going to make sure DH knows I am to avoid all the carnival food lol! Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday, keep up the good work ladies!!!!!!!

Hey guys! I just found this thread. I used to be more active in the forums and I fell off the wagon for a while but I'm back! I'm not in the 280's, yet. I'm starting back up around 320 lbs. You guys are all doing awesome!

I need to find cardio that I like without a gym. I can only do so many fitness DVDs before I wanna shoot my television so I'm stuck.

Thank you for all the encouragement ladies! I really do love the goals and onerlands!

Oh wow way to go Kim!! 16 days w/no soda and 4 days w/no fried food is great!!! I remember when I kicked soda, for like 2 weeks I kept getting headaches, but they eventually quit and haven't went away yet. It took a while for my body to adjust to the water intake (so my scale stuck for a while) but after I rehydrated and kept my body hydrated the scale started to move, so hopefully yours will move soon. I am sure you will see 266 soon! Your goals this week are fantastic, keep up the good work!

As for me, the town dance was neat, the kids had a good time. They are 6, 5, 2, and 18 mos so they LOVE to dance, EVERYWHERE lol! We had a cookout for Father's Day today, but I ate my nutrisystem and ate the fruit that me and the kids had brought, and everything was fine. My husband's family (who live in the house next door) know I am on nutrisystem, so they, as well as my dear hubby, made sure there were things I could eat so I wouldn't feel left out. Then we ran and took a swim with the kids. It was great.

I hope everyone is doing great!!! Glad to see we have got a really good group of ppl here!!! Happy Father's Day to all you fathers (and mothers) who have worked hard and earned the right for a little one to call you dad!! Enjoy your special day!!!

Best wishes everyone!
