No Longer OBESE!!
Calculated my BMI this morning... I am 29.6 and no longer officially obese!!! Can't remember the last time I could say this...over 10 years for sure!! I know deep down that this ia life long stuggle, but I'm going to take this victory over my weight adn celebrate it.
I am doing my first 5K this weekend. I have been following the Couch 2 5K program and doing things that I never thought I could. From someone who has ALWAYS hated to run., I now look forward to my runs. To those who think you can't... YOU CAN!!
Thank you to everyone who posts on this board, good and bad. You are all inspiration and I am honored to be on this weight loss journey with all of you!!

Kelli,
You LOSER!!! CONGRATS!! I remember when I went from Obese to Overweight it was such a thrill.
When I became Overweight I too did the Couch to 5K training. Since then I did 3 "official" 5Ks and 1 10K. I currently run about 3 times a week, and for about 6 miles. My next goal is a 1/2 marathon. I'm not sure if I'll ever do it, but like with weight loss it's at least a goal to shoot for.
Good luck, and know we're here for you .. and PROUD of your accomplishments (so far ;D)
