Good Morning All,

My scale has been my friend for the past couple of days. I weighed this morning and I am 205.2!!!!!!! That means I have lost 131.4 lbs so far. I brought up my handy dandy website to see what my BMI is and I am not in the Obese category anymore. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Now on to ONDERLAND.... I am so excited!!!

Good for you. Just curious which sites people use for those ratings. I used the calculator at the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's website (first one that comes up on a google search) and it states at 5'9" I need to be 202 to be at the top of the overweight category. But it didn't ask male or female, is there a difference?

Thanks for any input - Angie

I tried to post links but I haven't had enough posts.
Try googling bmi and gender. Choose the halls link and the family doctor one.

They take into account age and gender.
