    I have finally beat the obese stage! I have been considered obese for probably about 6 years and didn't really ever think I would have the willpower and motivation to do anything about it. I tried many things- weight watchers, joining a gym, atkins- you name it. I finally decided in October that I didn't want to go on another diet- I wanted to have a heathier lifestyle. Since October (when I signed up on this site) I have lost 27 pounds- which leaves me with alot still to do but I finally got my BMI down below 30! Goodbye to obeseity!! Thank you everyone for your help and encouragement!!

      Awesome!! Me too. I'm just fat as well. just got out of the obese stage. I never thought i was obese until I looked at my BMI and now have a lower goal than I originally did because I want to be in the "Normal" range. Congrats to you and keep it up.

      That's wonderful, just joined this site a few days ago, got 3 friends to join with me. We are all working to lose weight. I guess I should do my BMI, I sure I will be more then just "fat", goody another goal. I quit smoking 3 weeks ago, and thought I better get on track with my weight because I certainly didn't need to put on more weight while I'm trying to get over the hump of no smoking. So thought what a way to keep me busy, work out and lose weight while I get over the cig's cravings.

      Good job on your side - hope I follow you soon.
