OMG! i am so happy! as of today my BMI is 39.9! That puts me in obese class II! Last fall i had a BMI of 53.9! thinking back to the beginni g of october when we took our son to Great Wolf Lodge and i weighed 334. that was less than 5 months ago. the weight limit was 300 on the water slides and i didnt want to be embarrased so i just stayed behimd in the wave pool. nobody knew my reason and how sad/hurt i really was.

now here i sit...85lbs lighter with a BMI in the 30's. per my insurance as of today i woud not qualify for surgery...my bmi is under 40 with no comorbidities.

i am just beaming!

That is great and now next time you jump on that slide girl! Keep up the great work!

If you fear nothing, then you love nothing. If you love nothing, what joy can there be in life?
