When I first started I read on MFP to take your measurements, so I did. I've lost 8 inches off of my waist in 2 1/2 months. Even though my scale is being stubborn and only budging 1 lb per week rather than 2, this was nice encouragment. If you are just starting, take your measurement! You'll be glad you did.

    Yeah I know Tweb, I thought she threw out her husband!!


    Anyway- Lynnie that is so fab! My doctor told me that the scale is nice, but the most important thing is waist to hip ratio. He was more excited about the 7 inches I lost from my waist and 6 from my hips than he was from the # on the scale!

    Keep up the good work, you are beautiful inside and out!!:flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou: :heart:
