Okay, I am learning not to judge my accomplishments by the scale, but it is very hard not too,

my weight on 11-8-13 was 201
my current weight on 3-8-14 was 199, and I am 5'2"

only 2lbs gone but my measurements...


11-8-14 3-8-14
thighs 27............................. 27
calves 19............................ 18
hips 45 ............................. 44-1/2
at belly button 42-1/2........ 39-1/2
waist 38-1/2 ............. 36-1/2
under breast 37-1/2......... 36
over breast 43 .............. 41
arms 16-1/2 .............. 16

that is 11-1/2 inches gone and I only lost 2lbs in 5months. Yes I am trying to lose weight, my goal is around 140 and it has taken me 5 months to lose 2lbs, but I'm in a size 10-12 pants, Hoping the next time I measure myself I will be down more weight wise, but I'll take the inches loss.... Happy Tuesday!

    WTG! A perfect example of why we need to use other methods besides just the scale.

    Great job! I am in the same boat as you... almost a year and I just hit 10lbs lost... but a lot of the clothes I couldn't wear last summer fit me... and I've lost I think 8 inches overall.... never miscount the inches and clothes being baggy! Keep it up you're doing great!
