The odd things we celebrate...

[Guest guest]

When I had my surgery almost 14 months ago, I had a BMI of 51.1. According

to charts, I was super morbidly obese.

Over the past 14 months, I have gone from Super Morbidly obese, to Morbidly

obese, to Severely obese... and this morning, upon getting on the scale, I

hit another milestone.

My BMI this AM is 34.9....

I am just plain Obese!

(My weight loss was just plain stuck for about 5 months, and since I had my

gallbladder out about 3 weeks ago, I have lost 17 pounds! Go figure!)

Now, most people in their right mind wouldn't be celebrating that... but its

all a matter of perspective, eh?
