It just hit.... I have been below a 30 bmi for a bit now.. but just now realized.. I am not obese for the first time since I was 18... I am overweight... and according to some weight charts.... only 7lbs from being normal for my height and age.... What a feeling... does make me wonder.. if I had plastics....lost the tummy skin... would I be normal???? just reflecting..

Thanks

I am not short... I am fun sized!!

WooooHoooooo!

I am doing a happy dance for you! What a truely wonderful feeling to be just overweight! I am getting close, if I can really kick myself in the pants hopefully I will be there by the time I start back to school! I think the "normal" weight range is a bit skewed as it does not take into account fat vs. lean body mass just weight and after carrying around so much weight for so long our bones have grown denser and so they weight more. Congrats on a job well done and on never being obese again! Love & hugs! Nicole
