Working my way down

A little discouraged this morning because the scale is being very mean. Yelled at it, pounded it, even grab ahold of the bedpost to make myself a pound lighter. To no avail.:huh:
So I pulled out my trusty tape measure. She never lets me down. We have gotten very close over the years, what with her wrapping herself around my breast and bottom every 2 wks or so :blushing:
Well I must be losing this fat from the top down. The chest area is down by almost 2 inches and I would cry like a baby:sad: but so is my upper waist!
Then I checked the mid waist at belly button and BAM down by 2 there also!!
So now I am happy and doing a happy jig. Which I hope makes Ms Scale feel like crap:laugh:

Haha, luv it!! The scale shows you a number, the tape measure shows the difference you will have in your clothes, which is much more important! Well done0

I always find weight is irrelivent,
its all about measurements for me!
I'd stay dont worry about the scales.
Just go by your trusty tape measure and how you feel your body looks at the time!
Good luck on your weight loss journey!0 -

Awesome!! Love the attitude - I have the love/hate relationship with the scale: it loves to mock me, I hate to see it - around and around we go . . .
GO TICKER TAPE, only this one is counting down!0 -
I have this problem too! The scale takes FOREVER to move. I haven't taken any measurements....hmmm maybe this is the boost my ego needs?!?!?
Congrats to you & thanks for posting your NSV! :bigsmile:0 -
Hmm I think I will go until vacation with just measuring. All my food and 1x wk my body. Yup.......that is a great idea!
I wonder if there is a ticker ticker out there???0 -

When I started last time I did neck, boobs, under boobs, high waist at smallest, belly button waist, hips at widest, thigh, upper arm, and above my knee (that was weird, but well I HATE that lil glob of fat on my upper knee )
My rings are swinging around my fingers today also.0 -
