My First NSV!

I have a long, long, LONG way to go. But today, just now, I had my first NSV. I was asked what my BMI was. I said "Oh, 41". Did I check? Nope! Then I got curious.
For the first time in 3 years, I am below 40! My BMI is 39.9. Yes, it's still ridiculously high. But it's the lowest it's been in quite awhile. GO ME!

Great job! My BMI was 41.3 when I started MFP, and now its 35.4. Still not good, but headed in the right direction.0

Thank you everyone! And congratulations to those of you who have lowered your BMI with MFP. It is DEFINITELY a step in the right direction.0

I know some poeple diss the BMI, but lets face it I'm not a body builder or an extreme athlete so it's a pretty good benchmark for me. I remember being a 46.6 BMI (morbidly obese) and now am a 28.3 and those numbers mean something to me, sometimes more than the actual scale losses. Keep up the great work!!!0

They mean something to me too! I doubt I wiill ever be super toned, and I have no desire to be buff. BMI is a great way for me to say, "hey, Im healthy".0
