Starting measurements (as of February 2010, 2 months into my working out and lifestyle change - so not sure of actual starting #s) -
Waist: 34"
Hips: 45.5"
Body Fat: 32.3%
Abs/Stomach: 38"
Left thigh: not sure... was being measured in a different area, then switched measurers! But, starting a couple months ago was 27"
Right thigh: same ^
Left arm: same as thighs. different part of my arm was measured but started a couple months ago at 14.5 or so
Right arm: same ^
Now:
Waist: 30" (went up and down a few times but am finally down and keep going down)
Hips: 42.25" (didn't start losing hips for 4 months, stalled again and finally am losing again)
Body Fat: 28.6%
Abs/Stomach: 35"
Left thigh: 26.5"
Right thigh: 26.25"
Left arm: 13.5"
Right arm: 13.75"
Before:
November 2009 - weight unknown
Now:
161 and losing inches steadily! :happy:
Other than physical difference, I'm building muscle in places I've never had muscle! I can't wait to have all the fat gone and be able to SEE what I've been building for so long! :bigsmile: I've also been able to decrease my 5k time since I first ran one last November. I ran/walked it in 43:30 then and I'm down to 39:07 now! I'm not necessarily running MORE but I AM running faster and I'll take that.
I've lost a good 2 pant sizes and 2 or more shirt sizes. That blue shirt was a Target L and now I'm fitting into Target Ms ... was also wearing XLs in other shirts and can typically fit into ANY M
Those black pants fit like 14s and they were super tight. I can still wear them but have to wear a belt and am wearing Old Navy 10s. The dress in the pic is a junior 11 and I bought it a week before that pic & it fit perfectly...the night I wore it, it was already getting too big. Probably won't get to wear it again! :sad: Who wants it?! lol
