ONEDERLAND!!

totorovic

Been obese/overweight probably since age 8 and am now 34.
Following my husband who I’d been with since 16 cheating on me last year and our split, I decided to put some focus into me and my happiness rather than just work and being a wife and mum.
I started at 261 (probably not my heaviest of all time) last December and have finally seen 199 on the scale this morning. I am so proud of myself and am determined to continue. Losing the weight and exercising has made me look slightly better yes, but it has benefitted my mental health so much more. People comment on how confident and strong I am a lot now.
I never thought I would be able to do this but if I can, so can you. Consistency and patience are the key.
Keep pushing in your own journeys 💪🏻
We’ve got this!

Please explain Onderland - some people spell it Onederland? Is there a word for under 399 pounds and 299 pounds ? Thank you.

Welcome to onederland! How exciting! 😀

@neugebauer52 I haven't heard of a comparable word for under 399 and 299 but that doesn't mean you can't make one up!

Onederland as a homophone for Wonderland is how I’ve always seen it. The reason there’s no specific word for any of the other sub-hundreds is because there’s not a homophone or other existing language comparison that works!

I've heard Threedom and Twoterville, but those are by no means official.

Congratulations!!! Speaking as someone who has been fat since my earliest memories, can I say that I am so so proud of you??

I feel like it's a little harder for people who have lived with childhood obesity, because we don't even know what healthy eating habits are or what a healthy adult body feels like. We have to train ourselves from scratch and what we're fighting towards often feels like some abstract dream.

You're forging a brand new you and it's so amazing and inspiring!
