Dropped 25lbs since January 20. About another 30lbs until I move out of "overweight".

Yeah, I know BMI isn't everyone's favorite metric, but it works for me..

    Way to go! Honestly, it doesn't really matter what measure you're using as long as you're making progress and getting healthier. Keep up the good work!!!

    Welcome to the boat. Can't wait till "overweight" isn't a term I no longer have to use to describe myself.

    Congrats!!!

    Kuddos. I have 10lbs 'til I move out of the "obese" BMI. I have a mini goal of pre-summer to lose the weight.

    Way to go!!! I, also, moved out of the "obese" catagory this week! 28 lbs to go before I'm out of the "overweight" one!! It's exciting stuff!

    Awesome! I just moved into Obese, I guess from Morbidly Obese. I can't wait to just be "Overweight"
    GREAT JOB!
