OMGosh, I'm NORMAL!!!!!!!!

I figured out my BMI just for grins and giggles and low and behold, I'm NORMAL!!!!!!! It's 24.9 and that's the highest you can be, in the normal range. WoooooooHooooooooo!!!! I'm so excited about this, because I've never been normal before!! I might as well admit it, right?? HA! Jan 240/132/115

Woohoooo congrats Jan. So tell me what does it feel like to be normal???? You have done very well, and your pictures shows that. Thanks for sharing. Gives us pre ops some inspiration. Vickie

What does normal feel like? Well, on the one hand, my skin isn't very firm, but on the other hand, I don't knock over small children with my hips anymore! So it's a trade off, but I wouldn't really trade it for anything! Every one of my co-morbidities is either gone or totally controlled and just not an issue. I have energy like mad and I can cross my legs in either direction! Hope you get to the losing side soon, Vickie!! I'm SURE you will. Jan

Ohhh and I thought normal was not being able to tie your shoes, being short of breath, and being afraid to go in public. I like your normal better. Hope I get there soon. Vickie

Way to go! you Are an inspiration to us new post-ops! Keep up the good work, you look beautiful!

Thanks, Amy! It's been quite an experience!!

Congrats Jan! Normal is pretty darn exciting!

Yes, it is, Lynda! See what happens when you don't eat Kit Kat bars? Oops, sorry, did I say that out loud?

Wow!!!! Congratulations, girlie!!! It's it a wonderful feeling. I was realizing that I went from Super Morbid Obese to Obese. That's such a good feeling but I'm not stopping there..I plug along until I reach "normal" too. Although it's a good feeling to take pictures and not be the fat girl in there anymore. So I'm right there a bit behind ya! 288/283/177...????

Ruth, you'll be there before you know it! You're doing SOOOO well and the change is so dramatic!! Congratulations!!
