I find this an amusing thing to celebrate
As of today, I'm overweight! Which is better than super obese, where I started. My BMI is now 29.8. When I started here, it was 57.6. Eek!
I don't have many folks cheering me on, so I thought I'd come here to say yay!
Woohoo! Next stop, um... Less overweight!
Eventually, healthy weight! It's still a ways off, but a girl can dream

Yippee!!! Hurrah! Woot woot wooty woot WOOT!!!
I started out super obese (BMI = 46.2), and recently celebrated becoming merely morbidly obese. It's great to hear a success story from someone who used to be in my increasingly-less-overloaded shoes.
Congratulations!9 -
siobhanaoife Hi. May I ask what weight you were and what your current weight is? Just to put the BMI into perspective. Thanks and well done :-)0

High Five for you! Great News! And I can relate, in May I was at 44.9%. And I am close to reaching regular obese, and then to get to overweight. I am excited for you.3
