    Me too, it's great isn't it. I have only lost 10lbs but am now 24.8, it's great reading that I am normal !!!! My BMI has been overweight for the last 6 years. Would like it to read nearer to 24 than 25. Well done to you. x

    Seems to me Body Mass Index is MORE important than weight. Congratulations to you for losing so much weight when you are in the food industry -- not an easy accomplishment.

    That is great! That is still my favorite accomplishment so far! That felt better than reaching goal.

    Realised same for me a few days ago! Great feeling, irrelevant for body builders, but as I'm not one I'm happy!
