According to the Centers for Disease Control, a BMI of 24.9 is within "normal weight range." Today, I weighed in at 145 lbs, which equates to a 24.9 BMI for my height of 5'4".
Therefore, I AM NOW NORMAL!!!
I was "obese" at 189 lbs...
I was "overweight" at 149 lbs...
And now -- for the first time since the 1980s -- I am *officially* a normal weight.
Just had to share. I think this is my biggest NSV yet.
I know...I just couldn't resist that title when it popped into my head . And I may be "normal" weight-wise, but I dunno about the rest of me. The CDC doesn't offer any guidelines on "normal" personality, "normal" driving habits, or "normal" sense of humor, so I suppose I'll have to search elsewhere for that info.
That's actually one of my biggest milestones, too, when it finally happens. I actually have a copy of the BMI table on my fridge, with my starting weight and goal weight highlighted. I just get thrilled every time I drop to the next BMI (I'm a geek, I know it!).
Uncle Sam says I'm NORMAL!!
at the title to your post. My first reaction was 'Uncle Sam may say so, but we sure don't!' 
Yay Kate!!!!
