Obesity

My surgery was 4 weeks ago, and today I crossed a threshold. I dropped under 250 lbs, which means I also dropped down under 40 BMI. This means I've dropped down in obesity class as well.

BMI > 50 = Super obese

BMI 40-50 = Morbidly obese

BMI 35-40 = Severely obese

BMI 30-35 = Obese

BMI 25-30 = Overweight

BMI 18.5-25 = Healthy

I left super obesity behind at the very beginning of my journey 6 months ago. I left morbid obesity behind today.  Now I am just severely obese. I admit the words are terrible...severely, morbidly, and super obese. Regardless, I'm still happy to be moving down. I've also dropped a few clothing sizes recently, which makes me feel just awesome. 

The other big number I've been waiting to see is less than 100, as in less than 100 pounds to lose. I'm there now..."only" 99 to go. It is still a lot, but moving under 100 makes it feel like less.
