Tape Measure is my friend today

I will try and make this short and less boring.. So this chapter of my life started on 2/22/12 when I stepped on the scale and went Holy Crap!!!! (kept that PG for post purpose)

So on 2/23 I started my journey of getting (back) into shape and being healthy.

To date I have lost

3lbs
-1" off chest
-2" off waist
-2.5" off hips.

Sorry no photos (yet) for some the scale is not their friend for me Cameras are not my friends..

Go ME!!!!!

Awesome.....one thing I wish I did before starting MFP was take some measurements....Oh well I have PLENTY of photos to see how big I was!

Keep up the good work!!

Great work! Especially since it's barely even been 2 weeks! Keep up the amazing work you're doing

So far I have been more impressed with my loss in inches than in weight. So I know how you feel!! Conngrats!!

thanks ev1, last night i laid awake trying to come to terms of why i let myself get out of shape, i have no definite answer for that. but what i do know (and realized) I want to get in shape and be healthy. i have a son that needs me and life is to short to dwell on the what ifs and i should had. today is a new day. I changed my goals (in my mind) to not focus on what i want to be at in 4 weeks, I am going to take one week and one 1lb at a time. going to focus on my short term goals instead of the long term.

Nice work! I also tend to see more results in inches than in lbs. I bet it feels GREAT!! keep it up!

I too like the tape measure. I seem to lose inches quicker than pounds.
