I'm obese!!!

I am so excited this morning! I started this journey at 280. My surgery weight was 266. Since I have started, I have lost 48 lbs post-op with a total weight loss of 62 lbs. I am no longer morbidly obese!!!

218 is a long way from where I want to be. I consider myself a slow loser but, I am determined to hit my goal. Thank you all of my OH friends for being my support and inspiration. This has not been an easy thing to do but, all of you really keep me motivated. Hope everyone has a beautiful Sunday.....I, for one, am going shopping!!! 

Congratulations! I wanted a t- shirt for each of the stages " obese!, overweight!" and soon " normal" feels great

Thank you! I don't have a t-shirt (although I want one too) but, I sure did call my husband at work to brag about it! You have done amazing! I wish you all of the best!

Love your attitude!  I'm going to remember this when I finally slide out of the realm of super obese to morbid obese to regular obese.

Thanks for sharing in such a positive way.  Enjoy your day!

Thanks! When I first started this journey, I was super obese too. I didn't even know there was such a thing as super. Now, I have finally hit obese it feels amazing. I have been morbidly obese for, at least, the past 7-8 years.

You are going to kick some tail on your journey! Keep your head up. The next year is going to be filled with so much emotion and victories. It only gets better from here! Best of luck to you!!!

You are doing great something to keep in mine on your shopping trip.As we get smasller about every 10lbs you change sizes. I have hit a 10 thought I was about done so went to express and got a few jeans ***at 89.00 each on sale*** guess what they are getting to big and I just bought them at Christmas. I am 5 8 and really pleased with this size. I am also 46 do look pretty good for an old lady!!!Well havenm't got my money's worth out of them and won't be in them for long. I remember when I went to walmart last place I was buying jeans and was in a 14 tried on the 12's then for giggles tried 10's and they fit so I skipped right over 12's.; The most awesume feeling is when my teenage girls grab my jeans by mistake and have to bring them back with a sorry mom thought these were mine.Awhile back that would never had happened.So I got tired of going to walmart once a wekk and dropping 40 bucks for two pair of jeans so I started hitting resale shops untilo Christmas/Then here I go agin thinking I was at the size I was going to be and now guess what what not.LOL Sorry so long just a thought 

 congratulations!  I was excited also when i went under 40 BMI.  I started at 52 and 280, and had surgery at 264 so we're around the same.  i'm also only 5'2 and am now at a 38 BMI.  can't wait to get under 30!
