I’m overweight!

For the first time in my adult life my BMI has slipped into overweight! I’m bloody chuffed. This comes after yesterday, when I was out and dressed for summer in a blouse (tucked in) and trousers, and for the first time I wasn’t layering to try and hide my shape. MJ has changed my life. I’ve now only got 10lb to what I thought would be my goal weight. I’ve lost 5st 5 since May 25.

Me too!
I haven’t been “only” overweight since 1990!
Have lost almost 8 stones.

You can’t have lost 5 stone in 2 months ?
But well done on your loss . I got into a pair of size 12 shorts yesterday, they were a big 12 & were snug , but I was in em 🙌

Absolutely fantastic 👑

Titasaducksarse · 12/07/2025 10:09

Whoop whoop. I hear you...I came belting down the stairs to tell OH I was merely overweight and no longer obese

TinglyandCurious · 12/07/2025 10:49

Well done OP, that’s bloody amazing 🤩 It’s such an incredible feeling isn’t it - I dipped into overweight a few weeks ago (started with BMI of 37/38) and feels like a massive milestone.

Not layering to hide my shape is the best feeling in the world in all this heat. Congratulations to you.

SevernWonders · 12/07/2025 12:11

That is brilliant OP well done.

I started same time as you with a BMI of 38, having been obese most of my adult life, I know I would not have done it without MJ.

ShrankLastWinter · 12/07/2025 21:27

Congratulations!! Hope you’re feeling awesome with it!

Madremia6 · 12/07/2025 23:06

Brilliant!

RobinEllacotStrike · 13/07/2025 08:30

many congratulations op & you other losers.

I also experienced the joy of becoming overweight recently.

I’d been obese or morbidly obese for decades.

35kilos down & on my way to a healthy BMI.

WOOP!!🙌🏽
