It seems odd but according to my records I have lost 4 inches on my hips! Amazing since that was the last place i thought I would lose. Ive lost 3 on my waste and 3 on my thigh. Its just insane to me. To date Ive lost 35 lbs. I started on my bday in april and I am soo not as intense as alot of people Im reading about on here. I really do despise exercising and I know it sounds dumb but I would seriously rather sit on my butt all day BUT we all know what that leads to lol.

Im not sure how to post pics in posts but I have a couple on my profile. I didnt start tking pics untill a month or so ago so not much change in them, atleast not that i see. I can't wait to have that WOW picture to show.

    Great job!! I need to get a tape measure! The number on the scale is one thing but measurements are REAL results!! That must feel so great!

    That's great that you're tracking inches. I've heard that's a better way to tell you're heading in the right direction than the scales. That's what they tell me anyway. Congratulations! Isn't this the best website?!

    Congratulations! I am glad you are starting this healthier lifestyle so young (I'm 58!).

    Hopefully your children and hubby will learn from your experiences and stay healthy, too.

    I started in Feb 10. My hips went from 45.5" to 39.4". My waist went from 36.5 to 31".
    My trick is follow my grandson around everywhere. He is a bundle of energy and wears me out regularly! ;)

    Hugs! Best of success. :drinker: (water)
