☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted June 13, 2013 When I started my BMI was 63.6 Today it is 52.3 Does anybody know when you are considered obese as opposed to morbidly obese. I LOVE MY BAND!!!!! at my 1 yr post op last week, i looked at the chart (like you my BMI was 62) and i noticed that i am not super morbid obese but now just morbid obese.. i can deal with that. YOU are doing super fantastic.. btw, i found this online BMI categories include: Normal BMI 19 to 24 Overweight BMI 25 to 29 Obese BMI 30 to 39 Extreme (Morbid) Obesity BMI 40 to 49 Super Morbidly Obese BMI 50+ 4 kazjim98, kll724, Maddysgram and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
