I've been gaining and losing the same 3 pounds for the last few weeks (but, admittedly, have not been very careful about my salt and carb intake lately), but I stepped on the scale this morning, and I am down those 3 pounds plus 2 more,  which means... drumroll, please... according to my
doctor's BMI chart, I'm no longer obese... just overweight! I haven't been "just overweight" since the late 1970s!

Wow... My BMI has dropped from 56 to 29.9 (in just over 12 months). Yay, me, LOL!

I already did some "birthday money" shopping during the Labor Day sales, but  a pedi before my brachioplasty, etc. on Monday is an EXCELLENT idea!
