NSV - Because the scale hates me, I turned somewhere else.

After the scale told me that I gained ten pounds in a week, (Yep. 10.) I knew I couldn't rely on it to accurately track my progress. Thanks to a suggestion from a pal on here, I've started taking my measurements.
Today, I woke up to the wonderful surprise of losing 1.5 inches off of each of my thighs (BIGGEST PROBLEM AREA).
Honestly, I'm doing a little dance right now that might just turn into a full-on broadway number because I'm so happy.
NSVs for the win!

great job! my biggest regret is not taking my measurements when i started back in january. i used the notches on my belt as a substitute, but it wasn't the same.
keep up the good work!0 -
Yay! Good for you! Your progress can not be fully expressed by the number on the scale! Sooo many factors cause the number to jump up and down! For that reason, I only weigh every couple weeks. It helps me keep my sanity!0

The metal monster lies, but the tape measure doesn't!0

I absolutely wish I'd have taken measurments. My scales HATES me and it secretly cackles at me when I get off. I swear I heard it snicker at me last time!
That's ok, though, I hid it in the closet as a punishment til it can behave!0 -
Congratulations that's fantastic!! I'm just starting out so I am going to take my measurements today for sure! I would be dancing too if I could lose that off my thighs haha! Way to go, really pleased for you0
