I stepped on the scale this morning and arrived at one of those magical numbers.  I am no longer obese!!   I can remember the first time I saw a doctor write on my chart 'obese woman' -- I wanted to cry.  I hope I never have to see that again!! Linda

That has got to be the most wonderful feeling........CONGRATULATIONS!!  Your hard work is definitely  paying off huge dividends.

Congratulations Linda!!  Isn't it wonderful when we met a goal.  I have quite a way to go before arriving at that magical number and being overweight rather than obese or rather the dreaded morbidly obese.   Right now I am 6 lbs short of having lost 100 lbs., I can't wait to hit that milestone, you'll probably hear my shout of joy all the way in Eugene from my home in East Springfield the day that happens.

Oh Linda- that is fantastic!!   I am still struggling to get below 200- at 204 BUT my clothes are falling off me !? Oh well, no saggy skin this way I guess- so far I feel better every day. You must too. So cool to be OVERWEIGHT HA! I am stil in the Obese category and feel the stigma!

I DID!  I realize it's just by the skin of my teeth, but 29.9 is over weight. Linda

Hi Linda.. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I have to say that I LOVE being overweight!! hehehehe Not really.. I just love not being obese! Although I was quite disappointed to see that even if I reach my goal (only 9 more pounds) that I will still be considered overweight!!!  I hate those BMI numbers. anyway... Congrats!  You are doing a fantabulous job!!!! Tara
