Now, I know y’all are standing in line to disagree with that statement, but it’s true! According at least to this definition, I’m normal!! Some time in the last week or so, I’ve lost just enough weight to trip me down to a body mass index (BMI) of 24.9, which is no longer overweight but normal.
Look!
See? Normal! And if it says so on the interwebs, it has to be true!

- It’s still March, I have time to squeeze in one more post about breasts!! So now that we’ve established that March is officially breast month here, let’s end the month with a flourish, shall we? And then we’ll have to find something else to talk about in April, lest I be compelled to change the blog name to “Postcards from my Bra”. Penises, perhaps? Ahem, anyway, here’s a [...]...
- Found: 15 pounds. If lost, please reclaim immediately. Sigh. I can’t ignore it any longer. I really am starting to pudge up uncomfortably. I thought maybe the pounds (whoops, kilos) would magically disappear when I wasn’t nursing full-time.

- Weighty matters And yet another reason why I don’t come out and play in blogland much these days: I’m spending four or five hours a week at the gym. Sigh. I’m almost six months post-partum, and I still have 20 lbs to lose. That’s 20 to get to my pre-pregnancy weight, and another 10 lbs [...]...
- Plan B, six months later Wow, it’s hard to believe that it’s been just over six months since I started my “Plan B” weight-loss plan.

that is awesome. I got a wii fit for christmas and I have to admit that I am a bit tired of it always repeating that I am overweight
But I still enjoy working out with it.
Congratulations on your normalcy.
That said, the BMI is a poor measure of health. Muscle weighs more than fat. Therefore, it’s common for top athletes to have a BMI in the Overweight and Obese categories – and others, such as marathoners, to have an Underweight BMI. Yet few would claim that these people don’t epitomize optimum health.
Good for you! Now if your mental health was “normal” we would all be…….. bored to death.
