Rep Power: 3156 | | Ok, I'd like to brag on a bit. I am no longer (according to BMI standards) "morbidly obese", just "obese" lol. This may not be that big of a deal since its just what the BMI calculator tells me, but it means a lot to me. I have lost 41.3lbs....thats big to me 
Also, I can now buy shirts in the regular section of a store (as long as they have size XL- but I am no longer 2XL for shirts. My size 20 jeans which I just started fitting into about a month ago are getting loose, and I am really starting to feel better and thinner (some days)
Ok, well that was my fun little brag on

Rep Power: 0 | | | Oh....all the bragging I promisede myself I'd never say to another human being, as I hate people who brag all the time.
Well, for starters I've lost 40 LBS!!!! WOOT! That's amazing, as when the weight started coming off it was unplanned. I feel amazing and people tell me I'm looking good.
My size 38 jeans, which use to be considerably tight are now insanely loose. They fall to the ground. lol. Now I fit snuggly into a 32 and a belt for 34's.
My BMI, which people say not to go by, went from a 29.5 to a 24.3! I'm in the normal class.....not overweight. That in itself made me feel amazing.
About three months ago I got called skinny for the first time *tear*. ME SKINNY?!?!!?! That's when I felt incredible joy.
I have faith in you all! If I can do it, so can you....If any of you need some help I hope I can be here for you.
And believe me, food could never be as rewarding as losing weight is. |

Rep Power: 8 | | I've been struggling with my weight going up and down for the past week, and it's finally down a full pound from my last "weigh in." DBf and I were jumping all over the place last night.  It may not be such a big deal, but it is for me!
