Why you cannot trust the scale...pics

Tanukiko

So Im going out on a limb to share some progress pics to illustrate why the scale cannot always be trusted. The first was taken on 3/13 and the second this morning 3/25.

There is a 2 lb differnce but hopefully you can see the slimming in the waist and how much better the shorts fit. There is a lot less bunching and while you might not be able to tell from the photo the shorts are looser in the thigh!

Would I like to see huge scale reductions? Off course! But Im happy enough to start looking and fitting better in my clothes. We dont walk around with our scale weight posted on our foreheads.

Wow! The side view really shows it! We wouldn't think 2 pounds could make such a difference but it does! Great work! Keep it up

Here's a side view stitch. I know right?! you can really tell in the side view. Its shocking actually how much looser those shorts feel with only 2lbs on the scale.

It could just be me, but your legs look smaller as well!

Tanukiko

@emilybeaver They totally are smaller! The leg of those shorts was stretched to the max 2 weeks ago...and now it fits normal and is almost a little loose around my upper thigh.

Very motivational, indeed, when we can say, "Take that, scale!" Nice job!

Keep up the great job. I have been holding at 200 for a year now but the basketball gut has deflated a bit more.
