So I've been a little down lately because my weight loss finally slowed down (after 15 pounds in 3 weeks) - okay, so it didn't just slow down, it ground to a halt. I reached my first mini goal on 1/21, but have since put on another 1.6 pounds.

I've been planning on re-taking my measurements on the first of each month. I went a bit early and measured last night. I lost a half inch in my neck, 1.2 inches in my waste, and 2 inches in my hips.

I know that they don't really add up like this, but that's 3.7 inches in one month. :glasses:

  • That is awesome!!! Good for you. People get discouraged when the scale doesnt move and I always say....check to see if you've lost inches! Keep it up! =)

    ummmm....you are doing awesome. It is so typical for the 3rd week to be slow. Be thrilled over your 2-week victory and keep checking those measurements. I check mine every week. You are definitely on your way!
  • DUDE i am so with you on that. wtf? I am sooo mad! but i knew it would happen, I just somehow still didn't expect it. I stopped, put on two pounds, and then stopped again. Whatever. I'm just gonna keep doing what I'm doing and pray and hope for the best. We know we are doing the right thing, we just have to keep on truckin'
