New Goals

So I've been thinking about my goals for the next year or so and I need to update them a little in light of my goals and my doctors goals.....

Be at or below 200 lbs by Christmas (BMI=33.3)
Be at or below 169 lbs by June 2008 (BMI=28.1)
Make it to my goal weight of 145 lbs by October 2008 (BMI=24.1)

Dr. Graber determined that after 75% of excess weight is lost he'd like me to weigh in at 169. I'd like to take that a bit further and weigh in at 145!!! That would give me a NORMAL BMI of 24.1 down from my original MORBIDLY OBESE BMI of 47.1. I'm already down to a BMI of 38.2 which means I'm OBESE not MORBIDLY OBESE. Sounds good to me. At 179.5 I'll have a BMI of 29.9 which means I'll finally be OVERWEIGHT, not OBESE!!!
