I achieved a great victory today. I am overweight. I am no longer obese. Yes I am sure to some gaining overweight status may not sound all that victorious but it was for me today.:drinker:

    You know I myself kind of had the same thing this morning when I logged in my weight lost... I went from Super Obese to Extremely Obese... I was so happy and then I thought wow how weird am I? :laugh: But I can see I'm not so weird in thinking that :happy:

    congrats I just barely made it into the upper overweight area too... finding out your not just over weight but Obese can be kind of a devastating reality, so I can see how being over weight is something to be excited about..
    good job
