    Being able to stand up from the floor under your own power without making a bunch of horrible noises is such a satisfying accomplishment.

      My relatives called it ONE-derland, because all the weights start with 1.

      Congrats to the OP! I hope every new resident of ONE-derland got here through healthy means and is here to stay.

    Way to go! I have, uh, a long history with inability to control my weight in exciting new ways and I am always excited to see purple achieve what I cannot.

    Mate; good fuckin’ work. You’re a champion. Looking after yourself is the first step towards looking an after others. Keep it up!

    Now if you eat a person that weighs 100 pounds you’ll still be under 300 pounds.

    I’m assuming you won’t eat the bones, so I’m not sure how much under 300 pounds you’d be, but that’s a pretty big accomplishment.

    Assuming you want to and will eat a person. I don’t know why you would. I wouldn’t. But that’s the lag of the land for you right now.

    Hell, if you ate Ariana grande you probably wouldn’t even hit your pre weight loss weight.

    Really makes you think, you know?

    Congrats on the weight loss. And for not eating people.

    great work!

    I’ve got good news and bad news for you :

    Bad news : You missed out on celebrating going below 100kg
    Good news : You are probably going to be overweight soon (if not already)

      you know what? funny you mention that - i likely just got below 100kg around this time last year :)

      i’ve lost about 39 pounds since may 2024 i believe? 21 pounds since january 2025 i think, and 15 pounds since august after i lost my shit finding out i had gained some lost weight back and my a1c hadn’t budged at all even though i’ve been working my ass off to lose this weight

      still have about 18 more pounds or so until i’m in overweight territory and as you can tell it has been sloooooooowwwww. i have a lot of major health issues and for most of this past decade no matter how hard ive tried ive only gotten sicker and sicker and sicker. this is the first year in years where i’ve finally seen more progress in my health rather than regress.

      i also have an upcoming appointment to check for endometrial cancer as i have bled almost every single day this year since january 6th and my endometrial lining looks huge but doing a biopsy was pushed off all year because of my age, until the most recent ultrasound where it looked way worse and my doctor was like “haha fuck”. which i know with the weight loss it’s like “did i do this or am i just dying of cancer lmao”. but there have been certain very recent positive changes that, in my very unprofessional opinion, i wouldn’t expect to see if i had cancer / the cancer was getting worse. i hope it’s not cancer, but if it is, my mind and body are in a much better position now to handle potential cancer treatment than they were one year ago. it’s been a very significant year for me. i haven’t felt like i’ve had so many reasons to feel good about myself in a very, very long time.
