As of this morning, I have crossed the line (BMI wise) from "obese" to "overweight". It feels great. No new pics yet, I am waiting until I hit 100 lbs lost, which should be in 2-3 weeks.

Continuing onward to "normal" and maintenance. I have so got this.

    Thanks so much everyone! I started at a BMI of 45.5, Obese Class III, last July 20. I am hoping to hit 100 lbs before the anniversary, just for grins. I will be happy to post a more detailed story once I reach that goal. Yay!! :D
