Is this something to celebrate?? TODAY it is! I've officially bumped my BMI out of the "obese" range and into the "overweight" range! MAN that feels good. And I'm feeling confident that I've broken my plateau. Only 2 or 3 more lbs before I hit my first BIG goal - breaking the 200lb mark. Hopefully within the next 2 weeks I can celebrate that!! Thanks for all the support MFPers!! :flowerforyou:

    Thanks everyone :happy: :happy: :happy:

    Carrie, it's all about height! I'm 5'10" and (underneath it all) have a very athletic build. Broad shoulders and muscles that are happy to pump up... so likely my true BMI is even slightly lower than the charts but the charts are a decent guideline anyway. I'm SO hoping I can pull off a 2lb weight loss this week to check in at 199. That will be SWEET!
