Well, I guess it's not technically a non-scale victory because it's related to the scale, but I just wanted to share this with you guys...

I'm ALMOST overweight instead of obese! Woohoo!! I could've waited to celebrate it, but I actually had no idea I was this close because I haven't calculated my BMI in ages. So I just did and I'm all excited because I realized that I've come from a starting BMI of 40.6 to a current BMI of 30.6!! I'm 5 pounds away from an "overweight" BMI! Yippee!!

That's great! Won't it be so nice to just be overweight!

Tammy, we're at about the same point, but you've lost so much weight -- you're such an inspiration to me! You're one of the people whose posts I always love to read!

That's a wonderful acheivement Lisa! I can't wait to be overweight!

I wanna be overweight too!!!

LisaMarie, that is wonderful news!!!! I'm really happy for you. That's a great achievement. You have much to be proud of.

Given my very tall stature, I have to wait til I'm 153 pounds to get to that point. Sheesh, I've got a looong way to go.

Awww, ((blushing)) thanks LisaMarie. I've read that you have begun running and I find *you* so inspiring. I want to work up to that, someday....

Wow that is exciting news!! Way to go!!

Just overweight...that sounds so pretty!

I can't wait until I am just "overweight" you must be on

Robin I am right there with ya girl 153 is sooo far, I hate bein' short if I was taller I would be closer...lol

Lisa, that is so cool!! Who would've ever thought any of us would be happy being called "overweight"? Keep it up, girl, you're doing fantastic!!!

WTG Lisa, I was totally thrilled when I went from the Obese category to the Overweight category. Congratulations.

Great job! I can't wait to be overweight too!

Thanks for all the nice posts! I couldn't have made it this far without the support I get on this board! I love you guys!

LisaMarie!

That is absolutely fantastic! Think of how much fat you no longer are carrying around!!!!! I'll be so happy when I'm there, too!
