I started going to the gym for the first time in my life around January 10th. They did my measurments, & bf%, Since then i have only lost 2-4lbs up or down but i am very pleased with the inches/bf% going down. Here's my stats....
Arms 11.75 to 11
Chest 35.25 to 34.25
Below bust 32.5 to 31
Waist 31.5 to 29.75
Abdomen 37 to 35
Hips 39 to 37.75
Thighs 22.5 to 21.75
Calfs 12.25 to 14 (muscle gain)
Minus 9" TOTAL
Bf% 24.3 TO 21.8%
)))) (The best part, i was thrilled/surprised)
This goes to show that the scale isn't everything. I always have to remind myself this daily b/c obviously i would rather lose inches than lbs since inches are what you SEE. Feeling very proud of myself! I am trying very hard to focus more on muscle/inches than the scale at this point after losing 85lbs!
