    Mother of God, you are AMAZING! Also, off topic, but you're a really great writer, too, haha. I was really into your story because of its content and the way you wrote it.

    I'm seriously just stunned. You overcame medical hurdles and are journeying towards health. That is incredible. You're awesome!!!!!!!!!! :D

    Forget Wonder Woman you should have a superhero based on you! You are certainly an inspiration to me and I'm super jealous of your rappelling! You rock!

    Great job, and thank you for posting this! I just realized that I'm also close to being plain obese! Started out, according to height/weight calculators, at just barely super morbidly obese (50.6). Currently at morbidly obese (40.6) and once I lose 5 more pounds, I'll be at 270 pounds and officially plain, regular obese. It's great to realize that!

    I love seeing stories like yours! They are the most inspirational of all. I was never morbidly obese so I can't relate in that way or to your pain that you must over come to get out there and to rappel, that's totally amazing!

    I can't wait to see you when you get to the overweight category, please post another update.

    Great work, great attitude. I have recently graduated from obese to overweight. I went from 34.2 BMI to 29.1. BP is now normal to pre-hypertenisive. The BP is what finally drove me to get rid of some of the excess. Doc said I was going to die (215/180 BP). I was taking 3 drugs and now none. Guess that is a real wake up call. Keeping with the less food , more move. Going to get to NORMAL weight at some time, and I mean MEAN it.

    I love this post!

    While I've been enjoying my relative success over the last 4 months in losing weight and getting more fit, the one accomplishment I never shared was the success in getting my BMI down from morbidly obese (class 3 obese) to obese class 1.

    I love the way you put it.....

    Yes, I'm obese!!!!!!:drinker:

    What a wonderful success story and very inspiring. I've lost 50lbs and I'm still morbidly obese. I too will be celebrating when I get down to obese.

    You give hope to those of us behind you on this journey.

    You are an inspiration. :-)

    Weight loss is hard, no matter if it's 200 pounds or 20. It's challenge no matter where you are comming from, but I do have to say I'm especially impressed with individuals such as yourself because I just have to imagine those things we start to notice as we loose weight (a more pronounced collar bone for example) take a lot longer to show. I'm sure there are other big wins you feel with larger weighloss goals...but I imagine you really must have such tremendous dedication to push through till you start seeing changes big changes. I imagine it's a long road for a while that requires a lot of faith in what you are doing. You are fabulous. Also, I love the haircut. :-)
