I weighed 145.4 this morning, and for a 5'4" woman like me, that's just within the healthy BMI range! I haven't been at this weight for 8 years and even then it was only for a few months until I got pregnant with my third child. This time I'm keeping it up and heading down to the 130s for the first time since college.

Woohoo!

    Yeah!!! Good for you! I have about the same goal as you. I'm 5'4" and had 20 or so to lose.

    Pregnancy just messes up a body. I had 5 kids in 7 years and am still trying to get back in shape.

    I'm from Utah, too!:flowerforyou:

    That's fantastic! Losing weight after children is very difficult and you are doing it.
    130's are headed your way!

    Ok, I just have to say that when I first read the title of this post the "I" in BMI looked like one of the exclamation points and I thought you were celbrating a heathly BM!

    Thought to myself, "boy, we sure do talk about bowels on this site a lot" :laugh:

    Okay, I must need my eye sight checked because I thought the same thing as jessneill. Furthermore, I was amazed that we were so excited by this. :laugh:

    BTW, way to go on the BMI :smile:
