Hi all,
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right forum...mods feel free to move this thread to its appropriate place.
Ok, so I know it's only 11lbs....but it seems like they love to stick around and hang on tight to my body when their existence is threatened. So I'm making this thread...hope that's alright. Is anyone else struggling to get out of the 210s or 200s? Come join me!
Not that I like to dwell on the fact..but every time I think about the weight I've gained in the past few years, one instance in particular comes to mind. It was during 8th grade health class. We were studying BMIs and...yeah, you know what came next. We had to actually take our BMI..measured on an old rickety doctor's office scale in the back of the classroom, with nothing but a thin sheet separating us from the rest of the class. When it was my turn, I went, and the health teacher (whom I hated) whispered in my ear..."183". Shoot - what I wouldn't give to have that number back!
I guess this was one in a long line of wake-up calls. Obese is such a nasty sounding word.
