Yes, I too, was once obese (and currently am overweight again with "modern" BMI stats), but my place of mental health that got me from a BMI of probably 35+ to 23 wasn't my body.

It was my overall view of myself (mentally, spiritually) and I moved my body in line with that mental picture. When people told me I was overweight (nicely) I agreed with them and I worked on it.
