    Finally, my BMI says I am no longer Obese, I am overweight! So weird how happy I am to be considered overweight, but I was 90 lbs away when I started about a year ago so this is a BIG accomplishment for me. I've been looking forward to getting to this milestone for quite some time now and I am so glad that I finally jumped that mark, never to return to Obese-land again :happy:

    The next marker I am looking forward to is being under the weight I lied about on my driver’s license (only 5 more lbs) and then hitting my initial goal of being 175 (still over weight, but whatever), and the big 1-0-0 lbs lost!

    I was so happy to see 185 on the scale this morning, it made my whole day!


    OMG- I cant wait to get to the weight I put on my drivers license! HAHAHAHAH!! Every few weeks I monkey around with BMI calc to see what weight I need to be in to be overweight- and I cant wait!! I totally relate to where youre coming from here girl.


    CONGRATS on your sucess!!

    Congrats! I had to giggle at this post because when I weighed in this morning I was less than a pound away from being "overweight." So by this time next week, hopefully I can jump off the obese train too!

    Well done!! An amazing milestone!

    I hit that target in April last year, and continued to go down to a BMI of 27.8
    ... then after Christmas my BMI was was 29.8...

    Not ever wanting to be obese again I started dieting again last week. I think crossing the 'Overweight mark' is a real special one. You don't feel half as 'fat' as before.

    Make sure you never cross the line again. Lets both go for that next step: a BMI of 24.9.

    Well done!!!

    It's not weird at all I know exactly how you feel! I was so happy when mine said I was "overweight" too because it used to be "morbidly obese". =)

    Congrats to you!
