Great job! It's great to move out of that bracket! I am so happy to be just "severely overweight". Sounds so weird but true!

Tannak, you'll need to look at a BMI chart....it's based on height and weight.

[playlikeworldchamps 595]

30 is obese. 35 is severely obese and 40+ is morbidly obese. you can use a chart or roughly:

702*(weight in pounds)/(height in inches squared)

so 279 for 5 foot 10 is (702*279)/4900 = 40

the 702 is there because BMI originally in metric units and the 702 used when doing lbs and inches instead.

So when I get to aBMI of 39 I will no longer be morbidly obese!! I am getting close!! Can't wait!!
