  • ONEDERLAND

    *Clearing Throat* Ahem.... And now time for a story...

    Once upon a time there was a girl named Bree. Now Bree struggled with her weight for many years. One day... in September of 2003, Bree decided to do something about all of the extra pounds she had acquired over the years. She lost 10 pounds on SlimFast - down to 260 lbs. Then one day... one of her friends (Sandra B.) said the most absurd thing, "Let's go on Atkins!" Bree scoffed at this idea but nevertheless, agreed w/ Sandra B. Funny that Bree was SO against Atkins (no bread, pasta, or potatoes...you're kidding right?) and she managed to stick to it. Sandra B. didn't last a day.

    Fast forward to April 4, 2005. Bree awoke to a most glorious spring day. The birds were singing. The sun was shining. Today was Monday and time for Bree's weekly weigh-in. With sleep in her eyes and without her contact lenses, Bree stepped on the scale. When the number popped up on the scale, Bree rubbed her eyes to make sure what she saw was true. Then all of a sudden, trumpets blew, a chorus sang, and the gates to ONEDERLAND opened. Bree had been working SO diligentely to move to Onederland, had already purchased a condo there a month or so back, and couldn't wait until the scale confirmed her move. Well today, on April 4, 2005, I am proud to say that Bree is an official resident of ONEDERLAND, weighing in at 198.5!!!!!!!!!!

    Her condo has been officially cleaned by Onederland Maids, the Onederland gardener has freshly cut her grass, and her furniture has been placed around her condo in perfect "Bree-fashion". Before entering her new world, Bree took one last look at "The Land of the Two's" and waved good-bye, never to see The Land of Two's again. There is too much goodness, self-confidence, self-love, and sexy clothes to go back to her past.

                  I love a story with a happy ending! :hug
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                      welcome to 100erland. Since you already sounded the trumpets and bought your condo in 170 township We can all get ready for your housewarming party.

                      I think that is hillarious that you were doing slimfast meal in a can and bars and didn't want to do Atkins with real foods cause you couldn't have bread or potoaotes which you can't have with that meal in a can either.
                      I hope you have given your friend a great big hug for saving your life and geting you to 100erland!

                      HAppy low carbing.

                              Thank you everyone for taking time to congratulate me. I love this board... so much love here. You guys are SO encouraging!

                              LOL @ 2Big - You're right! But I managed to eat bread and potatoes during my one "sensible" meal ... and it was never all that sensible!

                              TTDriver - I still work w/ Sandra B. I told her this morning and she said in her beautiful Jamaican accent "I'm so proud of you!" and gave me a Super Big :hug
