.3 BMI points from being overweight!!

Who would have ever thought that I would be excited about being overweight? As of my weigh-in this morning, I not only finally hit the 25 lbs lost mark but the loss brought me to .3 points shy of being overweight! How cool is that? Now, while I know that the BMI chart is a bit ambiguous, thats ok because I also saw 187.6 on the scale and I can assure you, I have not seen any number beginning with a 18 in a very long time!

On the eating front, not so good. I had about 1/2 of a scrambled egg this morning and I got stuck. I think its because I ate a little too early as I am tight in the morning. I've been eating for the first time each day around 11 or 11:30 but today I ate at 10:30 because I had to go out. I than went to Starbucks and had a Skinny Chocolate Vivanno Smoothie with a shot of espresso that went down slowly but went down! They are great by the way. I don't do them that often but I really do enjoy them. They are only 250 calories and pack a punch with 18 grams of protein. I figured that my 1/2 of egg didn't do much for me so I needed more protein.

Dinner was not good either. I mashed up 2 small meatballs with 1/2 cup marinara sauce and a slice of mozzerella cheese and got stuck after two bites! I am getting so frustrated! Yesterday was fine and today was a stucky sucky day! I am now sipping a cup of tea and it feels good!

I am getting ready for our road trip to Long Island on Friday...I cannot wait. My mother keeps calling me and tells me how much she cannot wait to see her grand-puppy, Brutus! He gets so spoiled at grandmas just like the four two-legged grandkids! I will be seeing some friends that i have not seen in a while and it will be interesting if anyone notices that I am almost "over-weight"! LOL

Have a great Sunday night all!

I was a little happy at being obese and getting to a 39.9 BMI

Over weight must feel great :-)

I got a chuckle out of your comment about being happy to be Overweight. I vividly remember studying that stupid BMI chart and dreaming about how happy I will be when I am "Only" Overweight! I'm right behind you! So Exciting!
