    You've done excellent job!

    I started this weight-loss journey as severely obese. I was so happy when I finally got into the overweight category a few weeks ago.

    hahahaha

    When I first saw the thread title my thought was "Here, have my fat" :laugh: :laugh:

    But after reading your post I totally get it and you are on your way!!

    I remember when I got from the Obese category to the Overweight category! I was SOOOO excited!! hahaha
    Right now I am 10 lbs away from the Healthy Weight Range category. Been 10-15 lbs from it for the past 1.5 years.... Hopefully I will make it!!!

    Kudos to you for getting this far! You will be in the Overweight category soon enough!! :bigsmile:

    I know exactly what you mean! I started in the obese category and am now just "overweight." Can't wait to burst through that one too!

    I started at 'morbidly obese' and now am merely obese!!!!(HOW I HATE that word) still a way to go to just be overweight but I now have a goal, to loose 32lbs by December of this year so I can have surgery on my back. By then I'll be top end of 'normal' weight. I'm the same height and weight as you right now and I think YOU look awesome. Keep up the good work.

    I've got 40 more lbs to go 'til I'm only fat. That will be a good day when it eventually arrives.

    I feel you! I am currently 14 lbs from being overweight. I weigh in tomorrow so hopefully a smidge closer. But I can not weight. It is weird I remember feeling HUGE at 170 and now I would kill to see the 170s again.

    I also think about the fact that I am probably a lot more fit at 188 than I ever was at 170. I have built up my endurance and been doing a lot of strength training - so I have a feeling that this time I will be a much more lean 170 than I was before.

    BTW - you look great!

    Me too. I've been bopping around at 185-187 for the past few months now (between a boyfriend and stress from major life decisions, I haven't been as strict with myself). At 5'5", 180 puts me into overweight.

    URGH.

    you look amazing. dont worry about the charts like people have said. I weigh 152 and Im 5 ft 4 in and I'm considered overweight. I'm also a size 4 so definitely don't do the charts. keep up the great work.

    I know how you feel! I was so excited to be out of obese. Because I'm so short (5'1''), obesity starts at 160 lbs! I had to get below that just to be overweight.
