New BMI

I saw a new number on the Wii Fit this morning. More than one, actually. My BMI as of today is 37.99!  It seems like it was in the 38's forever but really it hasn't been that long. At my highest weight it was over 45! And that was earlier this year. Seeing the progress makes me feel good, another reminder that what I'm doing is right for me and works well. Not only that, but it's completely sustainable.  It gives me hope that I will reach my Hot 100 goal of a BMI under 35 by the end of the year. By then I need to weigh 223 lbs which is only 19 lbs less than today. Maybe I should've set my goal BMI lower. I will probably end up changing it when the time comes.  I'll still be obese until about 30 less pounds after that.

Enough math for now.

  3. Hello there. That is great that your BMI is lower!! Does the Wii Fit give you a good work out? I think I want one of those. We have a Wii and I love it.

  4. The Wii Fit workouts can be as good or as low energy as you want to put into them, really. You can do yoga, balancing, aerobics, or "plus" exercises.

    I just got done with 10 minutes of super hula hoop (did not beat my high of 3330 spins but came close) and I am sweating and my legs are wobbly. That's the way I like it!

  5. Woohoo!! Good for you! I also think I didn't set my weight/bmi goals low enough. I'm only 16 pounds from my year-end goal, and about 38 pounds to my goal goal. I guess I didn't believe in myself enough.
