No longer morbidly obese (just regular obese, for now)

I was checking my BMI today to see how much it has changed in a little over a year, and I noticed something interesting.
I started in December 2016 at 307 pounds. BMI-calculator.net says I'm Obese class III: morbidly obese at that BMI.
After a year of half-heartedly trying (about six months of actual dieting total) I am at 249 pounds. Putting me down almost ten BMI points and into A Obese class III, no longer morbidly obese.
I started at a size 30 and Tuesday I bought size 22 pants!
Here I am in January of 2017 after I just started dieting.
Here I am in December 2017 and Tuesday (up close):
Bit of a fat girl angle here. I still have a bit of a double chin.

I took this photo on my phone, but the experience is simikar on the website.
Look above the box to type your reply in. See those small icons? See the one on the far right? It looks like a picture of a mountain with a dot over it? Tap/click that and then follow the prompts. You'll probably want to upload a picture rather than link to one.
