I think most of us agree that what we're after on this journey is to look different and feel different, and if we think we look fabulous, who cares what's on the scale.
With this in mind, I've been tracking my measurements since the beginning of the year.
In total, I have lost 13.5 inches!!!
Prior to checking in and totalling all that I have lost, I was feeling like I wasn't really changing. My weight hasn't budged in about 4 weeks, and I was thinking, what the heck is going on?
Well apparently, my body has been doing all kinds of work the scale hasn't reflected. I've only lost about 8 pounds, so that number of inches is incredible to me.
When in doubt - measure!
Thought this might help some of you who get on and off the scale, and feel like it never budges..
