I know I haven't been doing this long (7 1/2 weeks) and I'm down 13 pounds, but what people say about not just watching the scale is true. With those 13 pounds, I've lost 3 inches in my chest, 2 in my waist, 2 in my hips and .5 in my arms. This morning I put on a shirt I have not worn since the day I decided I was going to seriously try to get some weight off and it fits completely different. Here is a comparison shot of me in the same outfit, one taken 7 1/2 weeks ago at Dragon Con and one taken this morning. (I realize I still have a long way to go, but I wanted to share my NSV for those that get aggravated with the scale as much as I do)
