My morning weigh in puts me less than 10 pounds away from simply being "overweight" instead of "obese"! I cannot wait to just be in the overweight category--I have been in the obese category my entire adult life. I am motivated as ever to lose the next 9.2 pounds! Just wanted to share.

YOu must have been singin' this am. Good work paying off and that much closer to your goal. Congrats! Nice profile pic btw0

Sounds funny, but being overweight (on the BMI chart) is my goal, TOO! Only I have another 25 lbs. to go. At 5'9" I'd need to get to 169 pounds to be normal, and I haven't been there since I was 14 years old...0

Congratulations! That's an awesome goal to be so close to. Good luck!0

I got myself measured and weighed this morning. I'm not obese anymore, just Overweight. I was so happy! (Turns out I am actually an inch taller than I thought aswell)
Congratulations! It is an amazing feeling passing the threshold! Keep at it x0 -
Congrats! I'm close I have exactly 10 pounds to get to the overweight category. Good luck!0

Congratulations! I look forward to joining you one day: currently obese from morbidly obese.
Kimbyfly: I am one inch shorter than I was some years ago. Seems you shrink as you age. Shame that isn't the case with my waistline :>(0 -
Congrats!
Currently I'm Super-Morbidly-Obese. And I too look forward to the day I can say with pride, "I'm overweight!" I'm sure most people won't understand, but the peeps here certainly will!0 -

I've got a long way to go to just being overweight, so I love reading about successes like yours. Thanks for posting about this today

One of my happiest days was weighing in and realizing I was now just plain old ordinary overweight. I started this at morbidly obese.
Now I'm 20 pounds from HEALTHY!0 -
Congratulations! I recently went from morbidly obese to severely obese and laughed because I was happy about it. Hard to explain that to people not on this site.0

Great work! It's funny to think about, but I also "can't wait to be overweight"!0
