I feel kinda silly even posting this, but I am hard on myself all the time because I feel like i have not lost ENOUGH weight. My weight has been coming off very slowly and I am really working on portion control now. Anyhow, today I measured and although I have only lost 3lbs since the end of November....I ALSO lost 2 inches off my waist and 1.5 from my hips!

I am proud of that!

    people get so obsessed with the numbers whilst loosing weight (myself included at times!)
    the best way to do it is to do th slow and steady approach as its less likely to go back on...also well done on loosing inches! id much prefer to stay at the weight i am now but be 5inches smaller that be a few stone lighter and no inches smaller x

    Because of how one's body is configured, the tape measure is a far greater measure of success than the scale... Congratulations.

    That's fabulous! Congratulations! I haven't tracked my measurements but I've recently noticed a difference through the abdomen since a year ago. Definitely worth the effort.
