no longer obese

  • I usually hang out in the 100+ "room" here, but thought I'd also post here since I seem to be fishing for compliments

    Yesterday when I got on the scale, I was down to "overweight" territory on the BMI. I've been waiting for this mini-goal for a long long time!

    Now, I can move on to my next mini-goal which is losing 50% of my starting weight.
  • Matt dear! How can u call this a mini goal? Cuz it is a huge...let's have a parade huge goal! Calling this a "mini-goal" seems to lessen the impact.

    You deserve compliments. You deserve a parade! You deserve a standing ovation!! And the 3FC people are here to give it to you:
  • WOW! That is an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!
  • That is AWESOME!!! What an amazing inspiration for those of us who are just begining to battle our weight!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

    :c arrot:
  • What an accomplishment! Congrats. You are an inspiration.
  • Matt, you are doing fantastic!
  • YAY, MATT!
    Well, if you're fishing for compliments, you sure are using the right bait, honey! What a major milestone! You must be so proud (you better be proud) of all your accomplishments thus far, now ridding yourself of that label -WAY TO GO!

    Thanks for sharing - it's fun to celebrate with you (and you know how much people from New Orleans love to celebrate) - but more importantly, it reminds all of us of what can be achieved with hard work, determination and perseverance - that's important no matter how much we need to lose but really inspires those of us with what sometimes feels like an overwhelming amount.

    Can't wait to hear of your continued success and of your arrival at the halfway point - please post here again to keep us up to date.

  • WOWZA! You go Matt! You are doing GREAT!
