To me, "morbidly obese" is just words; getting over the pervasive and persistent categorical "obese" was harder. I jumped from a BMI of 37 to a BMI of 42, with no change in measured weight, only a change in measured height. My appearance didn't change with the change in label. So it must be just words, or, as LowCarbRob, our topic starter made it, a milestone to celebrate. I've lost five pounds. The next five pounds I lose will not put me back over the line, but if I lose *six* pounds, it will.
So the first general milestone to celebrate, since I don't have Onderland ahead of me. As far as I know, there's no milestone for going below 100 pounds--probably not enough call for it. Know any overweight people with realistic goal weights of 94 pounds?
