Hi there! I have reached my half way mark to my main goal. I would love to have some added support as the last half seems to be worse than the first! I had many close supportive friends on here but it seems as they reach their goal they disappear :( I am 9 pounds away from seeing the 1 at the beginning of the scale! It is sure to be an emotional day for me and I would love some support an extra help getting there! I've lost 30 pounds and really want to lose another 30 by the time I go to Vegas for my 21st birthday on New Years! :)

ADD ME. :)
With a message, please!

    I'm 4 lbs away from being under, and I guess this is the first time that I thought of it like that.....I don't EVER want to see a 2 as the first number in my weight again!!!

    Well, I am a bit older than you- 46, but I can sympathize with being sooo close to Onederland- I have 4lbs to go before seeing that 1 in the beginning of the numbers on my scale. It's crazy!! I still have 60+ pounds that I want to lose, but have already lost 66- ticker is off by a few lbs.

    Thank you for all the responses! I believe I have added all of you. :)

    Mkandell-onederland is a term for finally being out of the 200's...as in you weigh 100 and something...and it is a mystical feeling for all those who haven't seen a 1 for a long time! :P

    I'm going away for a family reunion this weekend, let's hope I don't gain! hahah!! I'm usually pretty good about staying on track. Just hard when you don't know what will be served at the function.

    Onederland is where the fist digit on the scale is 1 and not 2

    199 versus 201
