Big Daddy said:Also. How focused on this BMI should I be. Since it has deemed me obese I cant get it out of my mind. I have a number that Ive figured out through the BMI calculator and now set as a goal to get me to be just overweight but if I reach that number I'll be elated.
First, congrats on the 14 lbs - good job!
On the BMI, I find it seems to be a bit tilted too much to making people think that they need to be bean-poles to be healthy. Even now, where I am the same weight at almost 50 as I was as an athlete in college - it says I'm only just in the "normal" range.
Don't sweat it, just make your own goals and stick to those. If you achieve them, then you can decide whether to push further. For sure, don't let it discourage you - you are doing great!
