Mine dropped down a bit after loosing a couple of kgs, but has been the same bmi for a fair while now.Did it drop significantly?
That is a brilliant reduction and my results pale into insignificance in comparison.29 to 22
Wow those are some pretty impressive numbers. Well done you.Yes, it has.
I started eating low carb eating shortly after being diagnosed at the end of June. My BMI was 48 when I started (Class 3, Morbid Obesity), currently it's 37.9, Class 2 Obesity, a reduction of slightly over 10 points so far. I still more weight to lose and yes, I do track BMI, along with weight (52.99 lbs so far) and waist size (down 7" so far).
Although my primary goal is normal blood glucose levels, my weight/BMI/waist size is an important health indicator so I do track it as well. (It also gives me "mini goals" to aim for ie. BMI into Class I obesity which would be 203 lbs, % of weight lost, 10 lb increments etc.) . When I accomplish a goal, I set another mini goal. I do this because psychologically it can be very overwhelming to set large goals of large numbers.
Since mid June I have lost about 2stone (28lbs) no idea of BMI as I believe this is not a helpful yardstick. Still porky round the middle but less porky! I walk a bit several times a week. Weight loss then stasis, then weight loss etc etc. Seems to be a pattern. That’s ok, big loss quickly rarely seems to stick so slow and steady is fine with me. Only downside is baggy skin.
Thank you also. I don’t have an “apron” just skin on abdo and thighs looking wrinkly which is effect of weight loss. As none of us can have everything, I will apply the oil and keep my fingers XX.
