I JUST realized that I have already reduced my BMI enough to get out of the Extreme/Morbid Obesity category. I am now "just" obese. Did I ever think I would Celebrate such a thing? No! But here I am absolutely thrilled about it! My body may not yet "show" what I've done, but it IS making a difference.

Are you going to get a sweatshirt that says that? Maybe: Obesity--' Every Day I have it less and less! I think I want one that says "Former Cutie-Pie" or maybe "Working my Way back to Thin". How about "Warning! My Cute is Coming Back!" Yeah I like that one. Another for you- OMG Now I'm Just Obese!

Thanks everyone! I also really appreciate the wishes for a speedy trip to "Overweight"! ;) I haven't been THERE for at least 15 years, so that will be cool.

I am Overweight and loving it. But it’s not enough! Heading toward (gasp) normal weight I hope, when this stall ends.

@jenondaway SAME HERE!

35-39.9 BMI is Class II or Moderate-Risk obesity and I got to that a couple of days ago! I am so happy!

Can't wait to be Class I obesity (i.e. Low-Risk), :) 26 more pounds to go.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
