I Am Overweight, And 6 Lbs From Wonderland!

[Pookeyism 1,143]

Today was my weekly weigh in and I dropprd four lbs this week!

I am no longer obese, I have dropped to 29.6 BMI - I am overweight!

I keep saying it, but I really wish I could tell my Mom...

I'm so happy for you! What a momentous victory! You bring up an interesting goal. One I had not thought about. I will add it to my list: to change my weight classification from "severely obese" to "overweight". Thank you for the inspiration!

I take it your mother has passed? If so, I'm sorry she can't be with you to experience your transformation, but I believe she is in your heart and knows...somehow...someway.

No, lol. I count from 1/2011 when I was at 279 lbs. but I definately count the weight lost in that year as it heped me decide I wanted the sleeve because I did NOT want to ever go back again!

[Catracks 865]

Oh hell. I feel a little better. I thought I was slacking

[KatieOkieDokie 171]

Congrats!! That is awesome! I also never thought about making that a goal..but it's one I will set now!

And like the others have said, your mom knows, she's looking down at you from heaven, and smiling with joy!

That's awesome. I am so happy for you. If I could just get the scale to budge 1 lb, I would be ecstatic!!!
