I met my second goal!

My first goal was to get off my blood pressure meds. Check.

My second goal was to no longer be classified as morbidly obese. This morning I made that goal! It was only by a smidge (39.9 and morbidly obese is 40) but I'm taking it.

I now need to set another interim goal. I'm trying not to make them weight related so much. I'll have to think on that.

Thanks for listening!

OH Mini-Challenge Goal for New Year's Day is 170 pounds. 11 pounds to go!

I recently reached that too! It's a good feeling - no matter how much into the 30s (BMI) you are. 39.9? We'll take it! :)

Way to go Anna... It is going to be fun watching the pounds melt off of you. Hope to see you again at LTF... It's much easier when you have a buddy to work out with.

Everyone here is such an inspiration.. I am finding myself constantly lurking and learning.. Trying to soak up every bit of information I can that you all instill in your posts.

From what you all say - 5 months until surgery is going to go lightening quick. Seeing how well you all are doing makes me more excited every day.

Thanks for sharing your stories and your day to day struggles and victories. They are very valuable and very appreciated!
