This has been a huge NSV for me! I started off in May at 228 lbs and weighed in at 180 lbs yesterday. Considering that I am 5'5", I am now in the "overweight" category by BMI, rather than obese. Feels good!!

Great Job! Since January I have gone from 341 to 230. No diet pills or surgery. Diet, exercise and support got me to where I am today. If you want motivation, support, advice, tips, or to hear about my journey feel free to add me and send a message.0

Congrats!! IMO I am not so sure about the BMI categories. I think 80% of adults are overweight or obese according their scale. I started at 255, Obese, and now I am BARELY in the normal category. Their scale says I can be 6 foot 3 and weigh 150 lbs and still be in the normal range. I would look sickly at 150 lbs.0
