My BMI is now in the normal range!!
I'm so excited!! From high school all through my adult life, I've been slightly to very overweight. This morning, I weigh the lowest I have ever weighed, and my BMI is 24.7! It's still on the high end, but now I am officially NOT overweight! Just had to share this milestone. My weight loss has been slow, but now I'm finally seeing progress.

South Beach diet. I had a lot of success with it 7 years ago, and now I'm doing it again to finally get to my goal weight.

My husband and I just started doing this. I hope I have the same success you did!

babybel cheeses, grapes, a serving of plain almonds with a few raisins sprinkled in. I do allow myself 2 saltines a day and I usually eat those with peanut butter. It's weird how I came upon that one. I had them left over from being sick, and I noticed I could eat 2 every day and see no effect on my weight loss.

I find it very easy in once sense. No, it's not easy to give up sweets and bread and fries. But it is easy in that I have one basic rule: no carbs other than the whole wheat serving that I have in the morning. So if I'm out at a party, I know what I can eat. You have to be a little creative, but once you get used to it, it's not so bad. Feel free to FM me if you get bored with what you are eating and I can give you some recipes and tips!

Re: My BMI is now in the normal range!!
Thats great!! I know how excited you are because the same thing happened to me recently. I have finally lost some weight and my BMI went in the normal range and I was sooooo excited. Slowly but surely its creeping down from the high normal side.
