While I know that I should not rely solely on BMI numbers, I'm still TICKLED PINK that I reached this huge milestone this morning of finally being only overweight instead of obese!! Woot woot!!

I updated my blog too, talking about the skewed BMI numbers and the such! http://princesslmc2.tumblr.com/

    congrats on that! I dont go by that stupid chart... i am always OVERWEIGHT... i am only 5'2 and i weigh 146... one wrong (or right :wink:) curve and we are considered overweight...

    i agree it MUST feel good to be moving DOWN the chart!

    i celebrated big time (well, ok, i grinned alot *LOL*) when i finally became overweight too! .... as opposed to obese as i have been most of my life... working on reaching top end of 'healthy' weight now! i truly can say i don't recall ever, in my life, being in a healthy/normal weight range. can't wait!
