Down the rabbit hole - or thru the looking glass (can't remember which)- and on into Onederland for the second day, so I guess it's real. I never would have thought it would take this much time or effort to get here, but as they say, it is what it is. 20 weeks and 2 days to drop 36 pounds. When you do the math, that's still a pretty good clip. Not the Biggest Loser type weight loss, but then again, I feel this WOE is sustainable long-term. Still, I won't even project how long until goal, but I know I can handle trying to make the Christmas Challenge to drop 30 (already down 4).
The walk this AM was as drippy as usual. I know this sounds like a broken record, but it's like working out in a sauna. The dogs and I didn't go yesterday as it was stormy, so today was a "must" no matter the weather, as far as I was concerned. Took them on their heat-shortened walk, dropped them off at home, and then I continued on by myself for the full 3.1 mile mega-walk. Lost nearly a pound of weight during the walk! Hope some of that loss shows up on tomorrow's scale reading.
I know there were a fair number of us on the verge of Onederland and a few have made it in in the last week. Good luck to all the rest - you can do this! It's great on the other side! Good bye and good riddance to the 200's - for good, this time!

Congratulations on making it to onederland. And yes, it is a good weight loss for the time you have been here. Don't compare that to the unrealistic losses they show on Biggest Loser. You would have to work out for hours on hours upon hours a day and eat unhealthy portions of food. Like they say, slow and steady wins the race. Quick weight loss does not instill the respect of hard work that slower losses take.

Thanks Squiggly. I've said good bye to the 200's once or twice before, thinking that certainly I'd NEVER be up there again, but, of course, I was, going solidly up into the 200's, blindly eating whatever I wanted and giving no thought to any consequences. Gosh, isn't that the kind of thinking silly adolescents do??? I'm going to do everything I can to make sure I don't cross that threshhold again. Been there, done that, don't need to do it again.

My thoughts exactly Sandy! I am hopefully going to follow you down there soonish - when this old body of mine sorts itself out and decides to lose again LOL
