Update

 As of today I am down 154 lbs and 74 inches!! AND am now in the Obese Bmi!!! 
You have a BMI of 37.9.
This indicates that you are Obese.
Your BMI is generally high enough to qualify you for bariatric surgery if you have comorbid conditions such as diabetes (type II), hypertension, sleep apnea or other potentially life-threatening diseases.

The table below shows value ranges and what they mean.

Range Meaning

less than 18.5	Underweight
18.5 - 24.9	Normal
25.0 - 29.9	Overweight
30.0 - 39.9	Obese
40.0 - 50	Extremely Obese
over 50	Super Obese

Way to go! Rock that sleeve!

That is awesome...congrats!!!

****! You lost 150 already?! How much of that was preop? There are a few people who I watch because they started around my weight and time and you are one of them. Jesus, your killing it!!! i have 3 points before I get to "just" obese. I want to see some updated pics!!!

 That is from thanksgiving day about 3 weeks before my surgery day. Surgery day I was at about 367.

 Go Erica! Wait until your BMI goes under 30. It was well worth it.

wow!! Such an inspiration!!!!! I am just starting my journey tuesday, your journey helps my nerves some

Congrats, Erica! You are doing great. Any tips you want to share with the rest of us? It looks like you found what works for you.
Again congrats and keep up the good work!

 I basically quit freaking out and stalking everything I put in my mouth. Once I did that the weight started coming off faster. I know that I am going against the grain of what most preach on this site. But it is what is working and all my blood levels are staying up. I don't EVER have hunger pains so I do still struggle with remembering to eat something. I also try not to get on the scale that in itself is a humongous feat for me. I try to only do it once a week to every other week. I do see my drs team regularly and seem to be doing ok.
