No Longer Morbidly Obese!

By minpinmom

I can't believe I missed it! When I hit 232lbs, I moved from Morbidly Obese to Obese! WooHoo!

 

Wendy stands for the round of applause . . . " I have prepared a speech . . . "

 

okay, so no standing ovation, but it does feel good.

    Wow! How much does a person have to weigh to be considered obese? Maybe I am close too!

    Good job, Wendy I know it hasn't been easy but you are getting there!!!

    Thank you guys! You can Google BMI calculator Morbidly Obese and plug in the numbers. Here is the one I used.

    A lot of the webites will just break it down into overweight and obese, but this one gives you more details.

    Thank you - I imagine I won't be telling my skinny friends - I don't think they will understand how happy I am to be obese!
