I was getting really down because the scale hasn't moved in almost 2 weeks. :grumble: I wasn't working out as much, only here and there And here and there I I was going over my calories. I gained 2 lbs, but I'm sure it's water weight, from eating to much sodium. So, I was feeling all down and I happened to look in the mirror one day right before getting in the shower and I was "huh, I look smaller" So after my shower I got the tape measurer out and I found out I had lost 1.5 inches sine the last time I checked at my waist. I also checked my thighs and I had lost .5 inches at my thighs. So I was like Yay! and a few hours later I found out that I only need to lose 5 lbs (includes the water weight) to be out of the obese category! Yay! My hips haven't changed. I'm now 38 33.5 44 Yay! Today I found out that I lost an inch on my arms, as well. And I checked my weight on the scale and I lost 3-4% body fat on the body fat indicator. So I"m very excited that I've lost .5 inches on my thighs, 1 inch on my arms, 2.5 inches on my waist, lost 3-4% body fat and that I'm only 5 lbs away from being in the overweight category. I was started to be really bummed, but this perked me up and I even did better on my eating today and I worked out. I didn't want to...but I did it. Even with my daughter trying to steal my resistance band. So, I'm very excited! I've planned my meals out for the next 2 days and they are low in sodium, so I should lose the water weight soon. Then I'll see where I'm really at on the scale. I'm just excited that I've lost 4 inches and 3-4% body fat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
