I officially started my journey in June 2011. I lost 30 lbs by mid August then after that I was on a rollercoaster up and down until Jan 2012 when i restarted and kept going strong since. I happened to come across my very first measurments piece of paper and decided since i hadnt measured in awhile that i would since i've been feeling kinda blah/yuck about my flab/skin on my belly lately. (I needed to measure anyways since i started 6wk6pk yest) So here are the stats...

225lbs>>>145lbs

Bust 46">>>>>>>>>>>>>36"
Under bust 44">>>>>>>>31"
Waist 47.5">>>>>>>>>>>28.75"
Gut/hips 51.5">>>>>>>>>36.5"
Arms, each arm 14.5">>>10" each, not flexed
Thighs, each leg 26.5">>>17" each

Total of 80.75" lost in 1.5yrs! That amazes me and i guess it makes me appreciate my body a lot more esp since i lost soo much and have come so far. This is a great example for those that are struggling with the scale...The scale isnt everything and INCHES are what you SEE =)
