Sounds odd to be happy about, but considering I had to lose just over 63 lbs to be considered to have a BMI in the overweight range instead of obese I count it as a success! :happy:

    Yea! That's a great goal to have reached, and your health is already improving! Keep up the great work! We look forward to you next post when you hit the "under25" band on the BMI scale!

    That's wonderful! I hate thinking of myself as obese! Size 16 pants are not that horrible, but the Tania scale still says I'm obese.

    That is so great for you! Hope all of us "morbidly obese/obese" people will be able to achieve the same thing!

    Great job! I have a spreadsheet and have the weights marked for Overweight and Normal BMI. I still have quite a ways to go, but I keep on keeping on!

    great job... I however will never have a normal BMI... as my frame is quite large and my doctor determined the healthy range for me runs about 50 pounds more than the average person...

    Not odd at all, I remember it well and I was jumping for joy. Well done and keep at it, next stop 'normal' (for want of a better word) xxx
