    I started at 211 in June and am sitting at 202 in August. Sooooo close! Based on that, it's taking me (hopefully) 3 months to get into Onederland. About a pound per week, I guess. My daily calorie goal was based on 2 lbs per week but my weekends normally turn into 1 long cheat day.... working on that. LOL

    How wonderful!!! Congratulations everyone!! Such amazing accomplishments!! My mom has always said nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels!!! There are still days (when I have a craving) where I don't believe that LOL but all in all I have to agree with that saying lol

    I started at 243 on 6/21. I'm hoping to be under 200 by mid November--just in time to celebrate the big 4-0!

    I hit Onederland about 2 years ago. My starting weight was 262lbs. I've been hovering around 180-190 thanks to events in my life as I continue to fight emotional eating.

    Emotional eating is really hard! I have depression and anxiety and have struggled with emotional eating as well most of my life. Don't ever give up though! Food is just as much as an addiction as alcohol or drugs but it's even harder with food because you need it to live, you just have to be strong and find a balance. I think I've found my balance but some days are still a struggle

    I started toward the end of May and weighed 243.8, currently am 222.4. I am hoping to see onederland by Christmas or shortly after. If so it would be the first time in more than 25 years. My goal weight is actually less than I weighed in high school so this would be a great start.

    I visited Onederland yesterday but didn't stay overnight. I started at 272.4 on January 25. It took me 2 days less than 7 months.

    I started at 244 lbs on January 15. Last week on my weigh in day I was 199! Today I'm 198.4. It took me 7 months. Still have a lot to go but I haven't been in Onderland in about 15 years so I'm very excited.

    I know what it's called, I just prefer to call it wonder land because most people are feeling quite "wonderful" when they get there

    But calling it "wonderland" completely removes the pun aspect of it. I'd say i'm in wonderland at 230lbs as I'm the leanest I've ever been.
