Today I finally crossed over from being obese to just overweight!! I'm so excited. I hate the word obese and I never want to have it attached to me as a title for my weight again. MP, andZumba have changed my life. I'll never be the same fat girl again. So THANK YOU MYFITNESSPAL!!!!! :drinker: :heart:

    That is fantastic! I know I felt the same way when I bought my first XL shirt. I mean, when I was in gain mode I was horrified to buy an XL. But now that I am in losing mode I'm just thrilled to buy a regular size instead of a plus size, even if the reg size is XL, lol.

    Congratulations! I am also looking forward to that. I stopped doing the Wii fit test because it told me I am obese. (a feature I absolutely HATE).
    Good job!

    That is a wonderful accomplishment!! Being healthy is so, so important! I felt the same once I reached the healthy BMI range for my height. Keep it up! MFP is a great tool to aid you in reaching your weight loss and healthy lifestyle goals.

    That is awesome news! Congrats! I was just checking mine last night & as of last week's weigh-in I am sitting on the border between the two (I am at 30.0). Hoping this week's weigh in will get me to your side of the fence!

    Keep up the great work!

    I crossed that line myself this week!!! I feel the same way about the word obese. It felt so good not to be in that category anymore. Congratulations and Keep up the good work! :bigsmile:

    Congratulations! I recently reached the "Overweight" BMI category myself, and it feels great to lose that "Obese" label. Fantastic job!

    Soooooo proud of you! I will think of you when I achieve that, too ... I actually have an XL shirt hanging in my closet waiting for me to fit into it! It is a cute collared button down in light blue with my children's high school logo on it. I loved it when I saw it and knew that one day I would just have to fit into it.

    Funny that I should read your post. I never read these, but yours just jumped out at me.

    You must be the same height as me, because I was at the same weight as you last week with the same bmi.
