I'm overweight! (and couldn't be happier!)

  • Popular Post

I just checked my BMI after doing my weekly weigh-in, and I'm officially overweight. I'm not longer MO, or even obese!!!! If it weren't 10:15pm, I would go outside and shout it to the moon and stars. I don't want my neighbors thinking I'm a total nut, so I will just come here and do my little happy dance!!

    I had a lapband for almost 8 years, and was converted to the sleeve in May so this has been a long time coming.

    I just celebrated this earlier this week! It feels great and I am happy but I bet it'll pass quickly before we're "normal!"
