Hey Folks!

When I started this journey, my BMI was 46! I was Morbidly Obese!

As of this moment, my BMI is 29.69!! I am officially ONLY overweight!

I'm tickled Pink!

According to the BMI charts, a healthy weight range for my height is 108 - 145 lbs. I figure I'll aim for the higher end because of my age and the amount of children I've had. I'm 5' 4" tall so I have set my goal as a BMI of 24 (140 pounds).

My original goal was to be a size 12. Well, now my 12's are loose. So, I guess I'll know the actual 'final' goal when I get there.

Although I have not achieved my weightloss goal yet, I've achieved ALL of my health goals already. Which is the true reason I had RNY.

I LOVE MY POUCH!

What's your health/weightloss goal? If you've achieved it/them, what's your next goal in life?

Happy Thursday!

 That is great Julie!  95 pounds.  That is unbelievable.  I went to the doctors today and saw the PA.  He is a doll.  I felt like his mother.  I forgot to ask what my weight is.  According to my scale I have lost around 25 pounds.  That is including the two pre-op. diet.  I walk everyday.  I guess it is time to kick it up a notch.  I still can't go to curves for another three weeks. Keep up the great work!  Hope to see you at the Dec. 4th meeting.
