Today I am overweight

Hi all,

After a 12 day stall, and much anticipation, my BMI finally reached the "overweight"  range.  I am no longer obese.  I am doing a happy dance! 

I started at 385 pounds, and I never thought I'd get below 200 pounds, much less out of the obese range, but here I am.  Its like a dream come true. 

If you are considering WLS, please do it for yourself.  It really works.  I dieted for decades only to gain the weight back and always more.  But this is different.  WLS makes the weight loss possible. 

best wishes,

Carol

Congratulations! I can not wait to get to that weight : ) I too have been a life-long dieter & I thank God for this surgery.  Every time I lost or stopped taking whatever diet pill it all came back.  I'm so happy for you.
