I am not far over 200, but I'm just so excited to really work at getting under 200. It's only a number, but its also a doorway.
And once I'm through that door, I wan't to close it and throw away the key, and never go back there.

good for you. that's how i feel about seeing the scale under 150! :-)0

Amen to that. I haven't been able to break it yet. I got within ten pounds last year and then I don't know what happened... But yeah, I feel ya. Once I get below that I am never, ever going back!0
-
Me to!!! 10.5lbs to get under 200!0
-
ONEderland is a huge accomplishment and I agree can not wait to see it0
-
I am ready to see the scale under 200 as well, I get within a lb or 2 and then I don't know why but I sabbatoge it, :explode: I am determined to get under this time, no sabbatage, nothing is gonna stop me. :bigsmile:0

You can do it!!! I know!0

Me too. I weighed in at 199.8 this morning but then subsequent scale readings all had me at 200.6. What a tease! It may be just a number but we all know what goes into losing weight so milestones are a nice reward.
I wasn't that overweight, but enough to feel a whole lot better with less midsection. Seems simple but I didn't realize how much extra weight slows you down, even 10 lbs.
Good luck all.0 -
same here that is a huge goal for me! I am about 30 more lbs to go but i cant wait!!0
-
mm I'm just over 15lbs from that goal. Every week a new adult lowest weight but I just can't wait for onedeland0
-
Me too. I think if I can make it under 200 I'll be able to keep going. I have 11 pounds to loose and I'll be there. Wish me luck:)0
-
closest I got was 222... then got sick and ballooned up to 280, back to 250... hoping 220 by the wedding in October, then 199 by Dec? LOL
So excited for you!! HOPING to follow in your footsteps soon!0 -
I want all of these people who replied to friend request you! You are so sweet and they could all be here to encourage you!0
-
I started and 240 and when I hit 200 it was a great feeling. Good luck to you!0
-
i am also looking forward to getting under the 200 mark. I did achieve a few years ago but the weight gradually went back on. This ttime I am not dieting but eating healthy and treats are in moderation. good luck.0

I am part of that gang, too! I haven't been to ONEderland in almost 10 years. I've gotten to 202 twice, got discouraged and slid back to my old bad habits. I truly believe this time I will make it. I have a great deal of family support (we are all going to the gym together) and the amazing support and guidance I get from MFP! This is the first time I'm truly able to track my caloric intake, as well as my caloric expenditure, and to monitor it throughout the day. Rather than good luck, I wish a strong heart, determination, resolve, will-power, and perseverance to us all!0
-
I'm the exact same, started this a couple of weeks ago just over that and now can't wait to see myself go under it again, first five down yay0
-
Good Luck to everyone!! I have 5 to go to get to ONEderland!! We CAN DO THIS!!0
-
50lb's is amazing, go you!!!!
Yes onederland will be awesome0 -
I too cannot wait! I am less than 1 lb away from it!! 200.4 this morning!0
-
Can't for that day. I remember not to long ago want to see it below 300. Not I am only 36 pounds away from the big 200. The scale will be my new profile pic when I get there.0
-
I have 9 pounds to go!!! I want to be there soon as well....haven't been there in 3 years. I do NOT want to go back this time once I leave. I am loving how I feel right now and can't wait to wear cute clothes again! I'm getting addicted to my clothes getting looser!!! We can all do it!0
-
I hear ya! I am currently at 201.6 so my fingers and toes are all crossed for next week's weigh-in. Good luck to you!!0
-
It's only a few pounds difference between where you are now and being under 200lbs but YES it's a HUGE feeling of satisfaction. I love every 10 lbs on the 10, but breaking out of the 200lb range was awesome!!! Keep going! You'll be there soon!!!0
-
I'm waiting to hit that mark, as well....A ways to go, but it's in reach!!
Looking for support and motivation!0 -
What a terrific thread, I could be friends with all of you. Anyone interested and I'll friend you back.
Today, for the second time, I got on the scale, it read 199.8 and then when I weighed myself again it was over 200. No matter how many times I'd get back on - no one in the number. But I'm not frustrated, I'm doing great, I'll believe I'll get there.0 -
Me too!!! That is my first goal, still have 20 to go to get there!!
Good luck, keep truckin!!
If anyone needs a new friend, I would love to have some, new to mfp, just working it all out )0 -

I'm in the same boat! To see 199 would be a dream come true. And from there I can turn that dream into reality by keeping the number down.0

For me it seems so darn far away but I will continue to kick *kitten* in cardio, and keep track of what I am putting in my mouth. by the end of march, I need to see 199 or less(giggle) Good job to all of you that have made it to the under 200 mark, and good luck on your journey to all of you who are trying to reach it.0
