So I began this journey at 5'0" and 187 lbs.
Through MFP and beginning C25k, I'm down to 152.4 lbs!
My ultimate goal is 125, but I am happy to say that I am no longer obese!!!
As of today, I'm just overweight!!
I know it's cheesy, but YAY!!

    Congrats :)

    It's not cheesy at all. It's a great victory. I had the same feeling when I was Obese II now Obese I.

    Congrats :) See, it's not always just about the scale :)

    Excellent!!! You have accomplished amazing results thus far!
    Nothing about loosing weight, or getting fitter is 'cheesy' and you should celebrate this victory!!!!

    I also have just started the C25K and myfitnesspal with the intent of getting fitter and hopefully leaner.

    GREAT JOB!!!!

    Always awesome to have mini-goals. I have a long way to go before I am overweight - but that is something I am striving for! Congratulations!

    Cheesy or not, it's a huge milestone. I know I was ecstatic when I hit it! Now I'm looking forward to being 'within normal limits'! I'm quite certain it'll be a while though!

    Fabulous! This is a great achievement, one I am sure many of us strive for. While I do not put a whole lot of faith in the BMI calculations, I still look to move down from the "red zone". I am currently sitting just above "over weight" at 30.1. I have 5 pounds left to lose to move down. However, I a have quite a bit of muscle so it's likely off a bit but I'll be happy when I get below 30.1.

    I can relate! I was more excited to hit "overweight" than to get under 200!!! Congrats!!!
