I'venever, ever been this close! I'm so excited! So my ultimate June goal is to get from 208 to 202 (29.9 BMI lol). Anysuggestions on how to lose these 5 a little faster than 25 days? or is that a reasonable time frame?

I'm just so exited!

    Congrats! Just keep doing what you're doing and you'll get there. I recently went from overweight to normal (per BMI) and was elated. Keep up the good work!

    Hi! I'm in San Diego, too! Congrats on getting this far. The only suggestion I would make would be that some people lose a little faster when they lower their carbs a bit. I changed my settings to 40% carbs, 35% protein & 25% fats and it's working really well for me. It looks like you're already doing quite well, though!

    Cut out food after 7 or 8, I've heard that helps, i'm about 2 lbs away from overweight myself and trying to lose that last 2 before my birthday next week....so keep up the good work!

    I looked up my stats today and found I'm still "morbid". So sad - I thought I'd already made it to being just "obese". :sad: 3 more lbs...

    I've heard to reposition your carbs earlier in your day. Cut back after your lunch. Congrats!

    Great job! I still have 10lbs to go till I am just over weight and out of the Obese category! It's great that you are going through this milestone. =)
