Poll: Howzit working for you?

I am so thrilled that this thread focuses on BMI. When someone just posts their weight in pounds, I can't gauge the significance because I don't know how tall the person is. 200 pounds on someone 5 foot tall is considerably different than 200 pounds on someone 6 foot tall.

GREAT THREAD and very inspirational !!

I have gone from 39.3 to 31.6. I am getting close to being just "overweight" and out of the obese catagories!!!

I started out at 44.7 and today I am at 30. Just one more pound and I will not longer be "obese" WooHoo! I am 2+ years out, was there actually another thread made for people who have been banded over 2 years?

I started with about a 45.8 BMI, dropped to 39.9 briefly, now I'm 42.0. Part of the problem is that I've lost an inch in the last 9 months. If I hadn't lost that inch, my BMI would be 40.8.
