A NSV to keep me motivated

Getting used to this whole tracking calories thing has been tough, it's a hard habit to keep going, but I've kept trying. I've been a little frustrated that the scale hasn't moved quite as much as I wanted it to yet. Plus I've been feeling sorry for myself because I'd FINALLY found exercise that I loved (tae kwon do) in the first couple months of the year, and then ruined it by blowing my knee out. So exercise is sketchy right now, and about to turn into physical therapy for several months after I get the ACL replaced in a few weeks.

In the middle of all of this, I realized yesterday that my jeans felt a little looser and my upper arms were looking a little better. So I measured today, and I've lost 5.5" overall in a month, mostly in the waist, hips, and upper arms. YAY! I'm feeling re-motivated and ready to keep pushing forward!
