New Group: All I Want For Christmas Is My 2 Lost Inches

Well, I have All I Want For Christmas Is My 15 lb Loss because someone else mentioned starting a group to lose 15lbs before Christmas, but why is everyone focused on lbs? I worry about inches! I would like to lose 1-2 inches on my waist by Christmas. So, any takers? :]

    Well for some reason this just came up on my feed. :] I started a group for it if you are interested. I just opened it.

    I will try to rally up some people. The plan is to take measurements (waist/hips) and have a goal for that more than lbs for once. I think the main goal of most people is to look better and be healthier while feeling improved too. Some people become so obsessed about why they stopped losing weight that they don't measure their changes and have gained muscle, lost fat, lost inches, but remained the same pounds. It is for that reason that I want to start a group for those who wish to lose 2inches before Christmas. :]
  • I'm in, it's a great idea! I can never join any of the weight loss groups/challenges because my weight loss is very non-linear, and weekly weigh-ins just don't work for me. This sounds like good fun!

    I hope it will be fun and I linked to the group in my last reply! :] I also find it easier to track my inches because I seem to lose those quicker than pounds.
  • Thanks, Verity! I've joined the group :) Let's hope for a few more members!
