  • I will not have access to a scale for the next few days, so I am going to report in tonight, since I am only 2 hours shy of October 1st anyways!

    I lost 9 pounds and 9.5 inches this month, including a whopping 2.5" off my hips and 1" off each of my upper arms (which is the most exciting by far!) I went from a perfect size 20 to a perfect size 18 to a little bit baggy 18.

    I did not do as well as I had hoped in this challenge, I really lost my exercise mojo mid-month, but I am really thrilled with the results overall. Thanks so much for organizing this Becky!

    GO STITCH WITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    :bigsmile: Well its October 1st here so the triathalon is over and I love the challenge as it really got me away from my normal routine. September was bad for weight loss for me as I only lost a total of 2lbs BUT I lost 1/2 inch from my bust, 1 inch from each leg and my neck, 3 inches from my waist and 2 inches from my hips for a total of 8.5inches lost!! Makes me feel so much better seeing that as I was getting super frustrated with the scales :bigsmile: Thanks for organising this Becky and Cyndi!

    Those numbers are looking great so far everyone!!!

    Here's mine:

    Weight: Down 9.8lbs
    Neck: Down .3in
    Waist: Down 2in...I need a happy dance for this one!!!
    Hips: Down 1.2in
    Biceps: Down 1in
    Thighs: Down 1.8in
    Chest: Down 1.5in...and it's amazing how much of a difference that makes in how your bra fits (Sorry Rooster!)!!!
    Bust: Down 1.8in...now if only they'd perk back up as they shrink down :laugh:
    Calves: Down .5in...here's where I'd really like to see some difference, but they are at least a little smaller

    I'm super thrilled with the results, and I love sharing these challenges and successes with all of you! Now on to bigger and better things...or rather onto mountains from molehills!!!

    ETA: Holy Cow, that's a total of 10.1in of shrinkage in one month!!!

    Here are my numbers for this month.

    I am down 3 pounds (it was a rough month)
    I lost an inch of my bust
    I lost .25 off my chest
    I lost 2.25 off my waist
    I lost 1.25 off my belly
    I lost .5 off my hips
    I lost 2.25 off my butt
    I lost .25 off my thighs
    I lost .25 off my calves
    I lost 1 off my upper arms
    my forearms stayed the same

    So while there is only 3 pounds less of me there is 9 inches less of me too.

    For the month of September I "released" 7.4 LBS. I'm not great at the whole taking measurements thing. I'm just never sure if I'm measuring in the exact same place and if I might be pulling the tape measure a tiny bit. As far as I can tell I probably dropped a couple of inches overall. I'm mostly focused on the weight loss and that my clothes fit better. I seem to be down two neck sizes for dress shirts, so that's good....and bad, cuz now I have to buy new shirts.

    Anyway, awesome job to everyone. That's a lot of inches and pounds!

    Hello everyone :)
    So here's the new stats!


    Waist 50.5 (down 2.5 inches)
    Hips 64.5 (down 1.5 inches)
    Neck 15.5 (same)
    Left Thigh 33 (down 2 inches) (HOLY ****)
    Right Thigh 31 (down 2 inches) (DOUBLE ****)
    left bicep (inside compression shirt 20) outside shirt 23 (Buy the damn shirts! :D) (that represents another 1 inch of BATFLAP LOSS)
    Chest: 45.5 (same)
    Bra: 54.5 (girls are holdin strong at a D cup ;))

    So lets see...
    poundage was 375, now 363.6, so that's
    11.4 lbs gone
    2.5 inches in waist
    1.5 inches in hips
    2 inches in thighs
    1 inch in batflaps
    ----
    7 inches overall. At least. :) Circumferentially I say it's probably like 20 ;D LOL But I'm an optimist. ;)

    All I know is, my ****ing 54 jean shorts I *JUST* bought are already baggy and I am going to have to start wearing a belt with them. ****.

    I am so going to pimp his 48 jeans. He is going to **** himself.

    Love you gals & Gregory ;) ( am proud of you) Two neck sizes is HUGE :D And I know how you feel :) Trust me. Hubby needs a whole new suit ;)

    Apologies for being thick, but I can't find the new challenge thread. Could someone point me in the right direction?
