I'm overweight. My BMI is 29! I am so happy. I have met my goal but I have 9 lbs to go to meet the comfort goal. This Friday my good friend is going to have the same surgery. I will be supporting her through this process. I thank God for the opportunity to loose weight and become normal. I thank God for the hysterectomy that I was able to receive as a result of getting this surgery. I thank God for the life insurance and not being turned away from things because my BMI was too high. Thank you all for all of your support and being there for me. I can't wait to reach my 100 lb mark. I'm getting close!

Congratulations on being overweight LOL!  Sounds funny, huh?  Hope you get the treasured golden apple soon.

I always thought that sounded really funny when I read other OH posts, but I couldn't wait to say it myself. LOL I did it. I'm not sure if I will ever get to normal, but I will take overweight over obese and morbid obese any day!

Koko,
I have a grand daughter whose name is Dakota and we have always called her KoKo too.  Cute name! 
Keep up the great work.

Thank you, I'm scared that I will look too skinny at normal. LOL
