Emmy27 1 Posted February 24, 2005 I look at those darn graphs and think "I can't wait until I am JUST obese"... whodathunkit? Severely obese.... blech. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mita 2 Posted February 24, 2005 I wonder who came up with the graphs in the first place. Obese to me sounds quite nice to me too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daisydoodle 0 Posted February 24, 2005 That's so funny! I'll be delighted when someone describes me as "chubby." It almost sounds affectionately cute, huh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
princess_n_thep 2 Posted February 24, 2005 My niece (age 6) was playing with her friend in the playroom and I went to the bathroom (which is next to the playroom) and I hear.... "How come your aunt is so big but my mom is so skinny?" I was horrified! But a smile was brought to my face when my niece replied, "She isn't big, she's just a bit fluffy." ROFLMAO @ fluffy I know I really shouldn't think it is funny but I thought it was much better than being called fat by a 6 year olds. Was actually refreshing.

Alexandra 55 Posted February 24, 2005 Emmy, one of my favorite NSVs was discovering that I was finally ON the chart at my gym. The BMI chart helpfully goes up to 38, and when I started this process my BMI was 47. So it took a while, but when I saw one day that I was actually ON that chart I was dancing for days.

Pippy 0 Posted February 24, 2005 Fluffy sounds good to me much nicer than fat lol. I was 44.9 when I had my surgery and I just worked it out again and now its 37.6 what a great feeling. Helenxx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mita 2 Posted February 24, 2005 I want to be Fluffy too. That sounds pretty good to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeLarla 22 Posted February 24, 2005 We should have our own LapBand BMI chart. You have to weigh at least 200 to find your BMI so skinny people can see what it's like to be non-existent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I'llsucceed 1 Posted February 28, 2005 "She isn't big, she's just a bit fluffy." Fluffy- thats the best one yet!
