Have you ever closed your eyes and fantasized about the day you’d step on the scale and see a weight starting with the number one?
Then you, my friend, have had the same dream that many of us bariatric patients have had. The dream of the ever pursued ONEderland.
And I am here to tell you that it is real, and you CAN get there.
ONEderland Is A Monumental Milestone
In the bariatric community, reaching ONEderland is a rite of passage. It says to people, “Look at me! I’m out here doing this!” It symbolizes the entryway to your body’s healthy weight. Therefore, it is hugely celebrated. And it should be!
I often think of it like this: You’ve headed off on a cross country trip and have just entered the last state. Finally, your destination is visible, and you are overcome with a satisfactory relief. Trust me, I know this weight loss journey is hard.
Expectedly, there have been days that you’ve felt like a failure. Or maybe you faced times it seemed like that goal weight was just too far out of reach. But reaching ONEderland does something beyond letting you know that you’re physically capable. It gives your mind relief as well.
ONEderland is an enormous game-changer, and here’s why:
You’re entering territory you haven’t been in for a long time, maybe even since childhood.
If you’ve been experiencing any doubt, Onederland is in-your-face proving to you that you’ve got this.
ONEderland Gifts You With A Huge Sense Of Accomplishment
Let’s go back to that road trip. Picture this: you’ve been driving for days. You’ve changed a few flat tires, had to pull over for gas, and pushed through exhaustion. Then, boom! You roll on into that last town.
At that moment, every step along the way becomes worth it. That is what ONEderland is – a payoff for all of your hard work and dedication.

I had Roux and Y back in 2005. I lost around 100 lbs in the beginning, but now 15 years later I struggle to keep myself under 200. I would like to take 50 pounds off and would love some help. I usually lose about 25, get satisified and eventually gain it back. Thanks so much for your interest and consideration.
