Today is my two month surgiversary, and when I stepped on the scale this morning, I'm now just obese. My starting BMI was 46.8, as of today it's 39.9. Woohoo!

Congrats! I still have another 13 lbs to go before I'm merely obese. :)

Nobody but your WLS sisters and brothers understands the excitement of being simply "obese" rather than "morbidly obese" :-) Congrats!

Thanks. Non WLS people just don't get it. That's why I had to share here.

GREAT work and GREAT news! I checked mine and apparently I'm "only" obese now, too! Where do you get the breakdowns?! YAY!

Congrats on being only obese! To get the breakdowns, I google BMI calculator, and the first two that pop up for me are the CDC and NIH. When I input my stats, they both agree I'm now 39.9.
