I just had to share this with you ladies cause I'm just bustin'. I got a reading on my BMI from the calorie count website and it said:

Based upon your current Body Mass Index (BMI) of 34.8, you are currently classed as moderately overweight.

I cannot tell you all how much I hate the word Obese! I hated being it. I am just so bless to have been able to get this lap band and learned how to live with it.

I am continuing to lose more weight and soon I might be "normal weight" Won't that be awesome??????

Congratulations .. keep it up!

I am so happy for you. I am not going to be there this year. I found out that I am pregnant with Twins. So my weight is not going down. I have gain about 2 lbs back so far. I am 2 months or 6 weeks a long.

Congrats on your twins!! I have 6 year old twin girls :smile::wub:

Congratualations! I cannot wait to join you.

Congrats to you!!! Does the wii really say that? how hideous! I really hate that word.

Yes my thanks and praise goes to God for His wonderful mercy! He has led me to this surgery and carried me through it.
