    Something doesn't make sense...

    My guess is it's an error taking your measurements. Perhaps you didn't measure the same? Some spots are really easy to measure consistently... others not so much.

    Ditto... The other day, I thought I had one thigh 1.5 inches bigger than the other. Not so. Operator error in measuring. You're down a size in jeans = you're loosing inches somewhere.

    Ok. So here's the thing. Fat comes from everywhere. EVERYWHERE even your hoo ha. You are measuring 6-8 places max? That doesn't tell you about the inches lost from all the other places you aren't measuring. If you've gone down a pants size you are losing inches. Period.
