Bea Amaya 859 Posted February 23, 2014 Bea's having a GOOD DAY today! For the first time in 28 years my BMI says I'm "overweight" instead of "obese"! I hit 200.0 today and could not be MORE THRILLED! I showed increases or the same weight every single day all the way up to the beginning of month 7. Now my weight fluctuates in both directions, although with a steady, but slow, decline every week. So although I know tomorrow may but slightly up again, after another week or so I can fully expect to NEVER see numbers starting with "2" again. There is something so very exciting in that! I may log today's weight as my weekly weight, not because I am interested in "cheating" (it will all come out right in the end anyway) but simply because I've hit a point that is game-changing in my life and want to log it, share it, hold on to it. Sorry for going on and on about this, but if anyone could understand what I'm feeling, it's all of you. So, I just had to share here. 18 Sweet_Mia, Wags, Bombs and 15 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need to say sorry for sharing hitting such a milestone! I have my weight written down according to the BMI for all of the different obesity classes so I know when I've moved into a different class so I totally get it and I can only imagine how happy you are If anyone gets it, it's us!!
