Major Victory....

I did it. I fell out of the "obese" catagory on the BMI chart this week. I'm just overweight now! (if only I could cut my boobs off...I'd probably be underweight!)

Back in 2002 when I got married I weighed about 150lbs. I fit into a size 10 wedding dress. That day was probably the last day any of that ever happened. I never saw 150 again until last Monday! (I got the stomach bug or ate some bad yogurt....not sure what but it knocked me down hard) Today I'm sitting at 146.6! I've lost the weight... not only the 50lbs off my ass, but also the weight of the 200lb husband!!!!!

Back then I didn't keep track of my weight either though. I'm 0.9 lbs away from this dietbet goal. It's been an uphill battle for about 3 years now. I am never proud of myself but today I can't help it! 3 years ago when my cardiologist told me I needed to lose weight or I'd see that heart attack I'm prone to.. I weighed 198 lbs... I thank him for being blunt, hurting my feeling but opening my eyes! I've taken my sweet ass time getting here. But better late than never!

Just needed to write!

Thanks you guys! After this bet I'm going to work on building muscle. I have a weight bench now and want to make use of it!

Wow! Congratulations! You sound very similar to me (body proportion size-wise.) My wedding weight was 140 lbs, but I didn't have muscle. I would love to get to 150 lbs with muscle because I did it a couple of years after my wedding and I was able to wear the same size clothes. Keep up the great work!

Excellent job. Your body and the people who care are proud of you. We're happy to hear that you won't be a victim of a heart attack with all your hard work. Now, keep it that way!
