So happy when I got on the scale today. I weighed in at 220.9 pounds which puts my BMI at 34.6! Which means I am not Severely Obese anymore just Obese! 30 more pounds off and I will be Overweight!

I know it is not the biggest success story ever but it was my first goal and I have reached it!

    Congratulations!

    It's awesome to hit goals. And, as you get closer to your goal weight, you might find that fitness or performance related goals take over, like how fast you run, or how much you can lift.

    Keep achieving them! :drinker:

    Congratulations!! This made me smile because I weighed in on Friday and checked my weight against the BMI calculator and was happy to see that I'm not obese anymore, I'm over weight but only 3 pounds away from being normal! :-)

    Success is success! Enjoy it.

    I am now closer to normal, than to severely obese. This is also a nice feeling ;-)

    what a great feeling. I can't wait to get to the overweight status, hopefully soon, but I must learn to be patient!
