I have to laugh at myself and thought you might get a little laugh too. I am super excited because my BMI is 42.25. All I need to do is get down 2.25 points (about 15 lbs) to move from the Morbidly Obese category to the Obese category! I am so excited. I'll probably lose my mind when I wind down to the Overweight category. lol.

When I went running out of the bathroom screaming " I'm obese! I'm obese! I'm obese!" My family thought I had lost it!

Ok mom! We know you are fat but come on, obese? Really?

Ha!

:) I am right there with you, the only reason I had this over whelming desire to reach my normal body weight was so I could say I am not longer overweight I am normal. I least I could weight to hit this number was 132 so that was my goal. I know silly but I had been morbidily obese for a lone time and last year I was still obese, when I hit just over weight, I was excited and than I became obsessed. Congratulations on you success to date.

I agree completely.... When I hit the normal BMI I finally realized I would live the rest of my life as a thin person.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
