I am "NORMAL"

Yipee!! I just figured my BMI....I am no longer overweight!! I am in the normal range!! YEAH!! I am so thrilled. Time to treat myself and do some clothes shopping!! I can't believe it. I can not remember a time in my life that I wasn't officially overweight. My head is spinning from this...I had my surgery in on July 29, 2003. Seven months. Only seven more pounds to my goal. Wow!! I can't believe this. I hate to sound like I am bragging...but it does feel good!!! Your friend in this struggle... Jodi

Congratulations, Jodi. That is wonderful!! I completely understand your excitement....I am only 9 lbs away from being 'normal' myself!! LOL And by the way, this is exactly what this site is for!!! Though it seems like bragging, you are sharing with those that can completely relate and it lends encouragement to those following in your footsteps. Best wishes, Michelle -107

Hi Michelle... Thanks for the support. You are doing awesome yourself and I know you will be celebrating like I am very very soon. Have a great day. Jodi....

Congrats and you deserve to brag. You have done a tremendous job and we all know how hard it is. Even though we had this surgery, we still have to do some extra work. The pounds seem to fall off in the beginning, but then we all have to get moving and go the extra mile to keep the pounds going off. You will make it to goal!!!! Just believe!
