Default Oh my goodness!
I did my BMI calculator today and just realized I passed a threshold, I am no longer Obese, I am simply Overweight!!!! Yippee!!!!!! I've been losing weight pretty slowly the past few months, so achieving this goal is a great morale booster. This is such a great site, thanks everyone for helping me achieve another goal.

Thanks all! I was so inspired today I went outside and walked 20 min around the block uphill (LOL, nope not both ways!). I also set up a new goal to get under 200 lbs since I'm now so close. "Slightly Overweight" here I come!!!
