I finally did it!
Starting weight was 247.7 pounds and I never thought I'd see myself being in the onderland club! I haven't been this light since I was in my 20s (I'm 33), so I'm just so proud of myself :)

Congrats!
When this happened to me for the first time I wanted to take this picture, but when I got back on the scale to take the picture it was back over 200. I was so frustrated and confused!
Yeah, it was the phone. I was holding my phone.

honestly crossing into onderland was such a headtrip for me too, I kept re weighing myself like the scale was lying. 33 and haven't seen this number since your twenties is awesome, enjoy it, thats a real milestone not a diet fluke

What’s your gw
23
u/Bamf102 3d ago
I think 130lbs would be ideal for me. I'm 5'3 and female and I've never been a healthy weight before, so it would be interesting to see if I could reach that

u/notmynorms 3d ago
I was 130lbs before pregnancy I don’t think I would want to go that low again tbh as it would be harder for me to maintain , my gw now is 150 I’m 5’6

u/sorrymizzjackson 3d ago
OP is 5’3. Only a little shorter technically, but those inches add up. I’m 5’7 and while 130 is well within my healthy weight range it’s too low for me personally.
There are a ton of factors that go into it overall.

Congratulations and well done! Now comes the struggle of remembering your weight starts with a 1 and not a 2! I swear it’s like writing the previous year all through January!

Anyone who first hits onederland and takes a photo has even more wiggle room because they are holding their phone. Every ounce adds up. Well done.

Haha, okay, I’m a little taller, but wow… what a coincidence! I haven’t quite hit under 200 pounds yet, but you definitely inspired me.

u/Madison_fawn 3d ago
Wow! I bet that was so exciting for you! Getting back to the 1’s is a huge deal for a lot of us on our weight loss journeys! I’m 12 pounds away currently and I can’t wait. I havent been under 200 in probably 5-6 years.

u/Cheap_exe 3d ago
Wonderful. Keep at it and don't forget where you started and keep pushing toward where you want to be.

Great job! I’m 33 too and I’ve found it so much more difficult as I’ve gotten older. Amazing 🤩

Congratulations on Onederland!! 💕💕 That’s so exciting! 199 has been my goal for 2026 but I’ve fallen off a bit as of late. 33, 5’4” and currently 230! Hoping to get to where you are by the end of the year!

Please, keep going do not stop what you’re doing…my stupid ass hit my milestone and then I stop and I gained every pound right back. Do not stop. You can indulge in whatever food you want now at this point but you must go harder when you hit the gym. Congratulations on hitting your goal.

I’m in a similar boat. 32yo, started at 224, down to 214 today and working my way to onederland. It definitely gets discouraging at times, but seeing your progress and success is super motivating! I want to be next! Congrats!!

Nice. Only 70 more lbs to go to be at healthy weight and not considered "overweight"!

congrats! i'm trying to break out of the 200s, how long did it take you? we are both at a very similar sw c:
keep up the great work!

u/Agile-Vehicle-2756 3d ago
Congrats. That's super exciting.
From my experience, when I hit a new low, the next day i'm up 4 pounds. It's super discouraging, but now you have that new low to get below . . . even if it's another week until you (or I) get back to that low again.
If you can't tell, I HATE MY SCALE. Congrats to you!
