One of the big indicators on this journey has been my BMI. When I started this journey -and at the time of surgery- I had a BMI of 43.6 and was classified as "morbidly obese". Those words were a wake up call. And a "normal" range of 25 seemed SO FAR away!
But 7.5 months and a LOT of changes and hard work later, I weighed in this morning to see that I've reached a BMI of 25 which is classified as "normal".....not overweight.....not obese....not morbidly obese.....but "normal".
I kind of hate the word "normal" so what's even better than being normal?? BEING HEALTHY! So I'll say that I'm so thrilled to have a "healthy" BMI!
Along with my most recent before/after pic just for fun :-)
