I’m now OBESE CLASS 2 at 261 pounds!



Recommended Posts

In spite of my goal being 250 pounds (soon to be 200 after I reach 250) I’m thrilled to have dropped out of the Obese class 3 category. Normal weight is not to far off now!

I was not sure what that meant so I used a search engine.

It seems that 40 and over is "OBESE CLASS 3".

Well, guess what, my BMI fell under 40 just last Saturday, six days after my 62nd birthday.

Once I dropped under 124.7 kg (275 pounds), I had made it.

At 124.6 kg, I was 50 kg (110.2 pounds) under my weight/mass on the day I met my surgeon 48 weeks ago on Monday July 17th, 2017.

I'm batting for better than 1.000 by reaching more than 52kg lost by July 16 (52kg in 52 weeks).

Cheers to you and your achievement. Your post prompted me to look it up and find out that we both transferred an obesity category at about the same time. (I remember when my BMI was 61+ and when I did not expect to make my 60th birthday!)

I went for my exercise assessment today (friday 22nd June) at noon and weighed in at 122.9kg (270.9 pounds).

It's been a good couple of weeks for my shrinkage!

Wohoo! Looking good. Who thought we would Celebrate being merely obese? I just got to ‘overweight’ myself and was psyched. Keep up the good work!

        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!!
