I wanted to share my good news šŸ“°

this mornings weigh- in brought me down to 17.2 (240lb) … which officially makes me 39.9 and on the obese section for my bmi (rather than the morbidly obese section)

started weight loss injections in January weighing 315lbs

absolutely over the moon

I’m so happy I’m now obese 😁

That's awesome newsā˜ŗļø

Well done. It’s really not easy to loose so much and sustain it.

Ilovethewild · 15/10/2025 07:48

Well done op, great achievement, keep up the good work and those pounds will fall off you.

tell us your non scale victories?

DisplayPurposesOnly · 15/10/2025 07:50

Well done! I was similarly happy to be (merely) overweight 😁

SoUncertain · 15/10/2025 07:58

Congratulations! That is so exciting :)

spicycats · 15/10/2025 07:58

Well done!

TypeyMcTypeface · 15/10/2025 08:01

Amazing achievement, well done! I bet you look and feel a hundred times better than when you started.

Next stop - the 'overweight' category!

Lilington · 15/10/2025 08:04

Totally get this. I was thrilled when I moved into just obese and then again into overweight.
Although it is sort of sad that these fairly subjective numbers mean so much to us.

ForCraftyWriter · 15/10/2025 08:09

Wow 75lb since January what an achievement!!!

QuickPeachPoet · 15/10/2025 09:44

Well done!! It’s a great feeling seeing progress!

Daisypod · 15/10/2025 19:44

That’s brilliant and you should be very proud of yourself. I started off as morbidly obese also and 18 months on I have a bmi of 25.9 so very close to not being overweight at all and I’m so thrilled.

BellissimoGecko · 15/10/2025 19:45

Well done!

coxesorangepippin · 15/10/2025 20:28
