Default Officially "Overweight"!

Happy to report that I am no longer in the OBESE catagory for my BMI! I am under 170 so I am officially overweight!!

I am also wearing my wedding rings that I have not worn in SEVEN years! I am happy I never had them resized. I forgot how beautiful my rings are! I feel like a newlywed! LOL!

Congratulations! I was excited when I reached that milestone too. Now I'm looking forward to "normal" someday.

I just graduated from OBESE to OVERWEIGHT, too. It's a great feeling! Congratulations! And I haven't been able to get my wedding rings off for 10 years!

Great news! I just recently have been able to wear my engagement and wedding rings again, though I went for much longer not wearing them. It does feel really special. Congratulations to you!
