Hi Everyone!

I stepped on the scale this morning and my BMI finally read 29.8! I don't believe BMI is the only way to judge a person's health, but it sure was nice to see that number come down from "Obese" to "Overweight." I'm still having a hard time seeing a big difference for myself, but I have noticed my clothes fitting looser, so yay for that!

Here are some progress pictures...

Left side - 238.6, right side - 202

I still have 32 pounds until goal, but here's to celebrating the journey!

    Fantastic! I know it's just a typo but reading "scare" instead of "scale" cracked me up. Some days it is! :)

    What a fabulous transformation! Even though I think BMI is dumb, I admit that I was excited to move into the overweight category.

    How do you not see the difference? We're always hardest on ourselves. I can tell you that I definitely see a HUGE difference, especially in your abdomen. I was having a hard time noticing my weight loss too despite the scale telling me I was losing, so I started tracking my measurements to get a solid idea of where my weight was coming off from. Maybe that would work for you, also. Great job! You look wonderful.

    Congratulations! Your hard work is paying off.

    I was thrilled when I dropped down from the obese range to overweight.
