BMI Progress! I decided to check this out this week and the progress is really incredible. When I started my BMI was 35.9, also known as "severely obese" (gulp!). As of today, my BMI is 29.3 which is defined as "slightly overweight" according to the site I used. I don't really worry about labels but it is amazing how much progress can be made in one quarter of a year toward better health. I just think that I could so easily have let things continue to slide for this past three months and I'd still be saying "I'll start tomorrow, or next week...or after this party/holiday/birthday/younameitexcuse."
I am so glad I started when I did and that I'm heading into the holidays (and to see my family) much less preoccupied with the weight than I would have been. I still have a ways to go but at least I won't shock anyone who sees me at Christmas. Lately I've been sort of "sick" of thinking about food and diets all the time so it is nice to reflect and catalogue some of these great postiives of all that work.

I just set my New Years goal and that is simply to take my total loss to 60lbs. So, I guess 190. It still is rather heavy but actually around that weight I wear a size ten (I'm so tall) so I'll take it if I can get there.

Wow - that's fantastic! As of today, I've still got around about 5.5 pounds to go until I'm no longer technically obese - it's funny how excited one can get about getting to being merely "overweight"!! Well done - you're doing so well, and you're going to look fab for Christmas! :)
