    I know the feeling, I crossed this line about a month ago. My reaction was "I'm no longer morbidly obese.. I'm just fat!!"

    Congrats!! :drinker:

    I just had the same situation! After my entire life (literally) of being obese- I am merely "overweight." And, btw, sir! This is NO SMALL VICTORY! This is a big deal, my friend! Congrats to us!! <3<3<3<3<3

    That's awesome! I thought I was a little crazy when I was so ecstatic that I was no longer 'obese'. I can't wait to be 'ideal weight' but I'll hang around in 'overweight' for a while and be happy about it for now.

    I thought this was like one of those 10 step program step, step one admitting the problem. This is much better. Congrats.

    That's an amazing victory! I experienced that just 2 weeks ago and it was the best feeling ever. We'll both be in the ideal BMI range soon enough :drinker:
