Holy BMI Batman :)

Well, for the first time since I can't remember when, my BMI was officially below 25 today...in the "healthy range" :bigsmile:

I guess its time to wrap my head around the idea that I'm no longer "technically' overweight...wow! Now I'm aiming to get down to the middle of that range so I'm not hovering in the danger zone when the holidays come along....

    I wouldn't get too hung up about a mid-range BMI if I were you. I went for that, and found that only a percentage point below the top end of 'normal', I looked VERY skinny. It's a guide only, and now rely on the tape measure, the mirror and my missus!

    That's great! :)

    Now someone needs to see about getting some seat belts for these wagons so it stops being so easy to fall off! :laugh: I'm aiming to get away from the danger zone too, being so close to "overweight" make me a bit nervous.

    Thanks all..its going to take a while to accept that I'm getting close to my goal. I definitely want to put some distance between me and the 'overweight' zone, so I don't have to worry about 5 extra pounds putting me back over the line. Its that slippery slope that got me in trouble in the first place. Congrats to the others who are there, or are close! This site is SO awesome with all the supportive and nice people!
