I hit 2 major milestones today...I lost 20 lbs (weight loss now starts with a 2!!!) and my BMI classification is OVERWEIGHT (not OBESE). I am so happy!!!!!!!!!!

One step closer to a healthy pregnancy (fingers crossed), meeting my husband's extended family and feeling like I am making a good first impression AND almost to the 100s (as oppsed to 200s).

Yayyyy meeeeee!!!

    Overweight sounds so much better than obese. I'm so happy for you.

    Yay! What a great accomplishment!!! I got all pumped last week when I realized I was 1 lb away from leaving "obese"... a pound that has not budged all week, of course. Lol! So close! Congrats though, that is awesome, great work!

    That is so great! After having baby #2 I finally went from an obese BMI to an overweight one. Means so much more to me than the #s on the scale! Go you!!!
