Talking Finally Overweight!!!

I know, to some that title may not sound like a reason to celebrate - but after too many years at being obese - I finally have lost enough to lower my BMI to 29.95 - which is (tooooo coooool) - simply, honestly, just plain overweight. I will take it, ladies & gents!!!

Oh, I totally get this! I started out morbidly obese, have been obese for quite a while, and I've now got 3 lbs. to go before I am just plain overweight. I am so excited! Congratulations to you on being "normal fat"!

Definitely something to celebrate! I'm currently in the 'obese' category, but working my way to 'overweight', then on to 'healthy'. We can do it!
