Hit a milestone! 🎉

Hong Kong Yanpep International
30.2 BMI and that close to crossing into the overweight category is a milestone in itself even before you get there. 180 lbs in the OP is a remarkable outcome. The goal of no longer classified as obese is such a tangible target to be working toward.
 
Going under BMI 40 is a legitimate milestone even if the bigger number has not moved yet. That first marker tends to change how the whole goal feels - less theoretical and more achievable. 180 in the OP is the long view of exactly that same commitment.
 
60 lbs in a year is amazing and the mindset shift around food is the part that tends to stick. 180 total is remarkable. Keep crushing it!
 
23.5 kg since December and 13.5 to go is a very different scale than 180 lbs total in the OP but the 'close to the finish line' feeling is the same. Almost there after never thinking it would work this fast is the part worth remembering when the last stretch slows down.
 
Totally agree with you, that's exactly why I brought up maintenance being the next hurdle. Still, reaching this milestone genuinely feels like a win to me, and there's no shame in taking a moment to celebrate it.
 
Down almost 120 pounds myself at this point and feel exactly the same way, guessing it just takes a while to adjust to the new normal. We'll get there eventually, I think.
 
Same boat. Honestly this whole weight-loss journey started because of that exact issue. Reached my target and it's still absent more often than not, ha.
 
That's a phenomenal opening stretch!
26 pounds gone in only 5 weeks, genuinely huge.

Stick with what's been working, and try not to get down if things ease up a bit going forward. Early weeks tend to move quickest, but slow and lasting change is really what carries people across the finish line.

So happy for you being 26 pounds down already, onward to whatever comes next!
