Ok, so let me start off by first saying that I am not one of those folks who live and die by the BMI Chart. I for one feel that it is not a really accurate reflection of ones health or what and I tend to rely more on body fat percentage as a measure of where I am and where I should be.
However, with that being said this week my scale has read 150 pounds even for a few days now. Out of curiosity I plugged my stats into a BMI Calculator and the result was 24.9 which puts me into the "Normal" range and out of the overweight category! I have never in my entire life not been considered either overweight or obese. Just to give a little perspective when I was at my heaviest recorded weight my BMI was 63 and I was considered morbidly obese.
I am very close to reaching my ultimate goal weight and so that will bring a whole new set of issues with it. I am going to have to learn how to maintain my weight. I have never done that before. My entire life has been either not caring what I weighed or working to lose weight. Learning to stay steady will be a new lesson to learn. I do believe that I will be able to handle it though. I have developed many good habits that are just my normal now in how I deal with food and portions and choices that I make.
