I was so excited when my friends asked me to go swimming today because I'm finally not embarrassed to be in my swimsuit without a coverup on!

I don't weigh myself regularly and I'm not sure where I started out for measurements but in the last week I lost an inch off my hips, 2 off my bust, and one off my waist.

    Nice job! I am only on day 7 and feeling better but just have to stick to it. :smile:
  • Great job!! Isn't this place great? I like to use measurements myself to gauge progress, and the way my clothes fit. I get too obsessed with the scale, so I try to keep weighing to a minimum.

    Exactly! Why get hung up on the number of the scale when you can see the inches melt away and see your sizes go down? I'm kind of inbetween clothing sizes now. I fit into the next size down for the most part now, but it's still a bit snug in some places. Plus, instead of going by weight for body fat, I've been using this site: http://www.healthcentral.com/cholesterol/home-body-fat-test-2774-143.html

    I think it's more accurate because it goes by inches. I'm only 5'2" and I think if I got down to the appropiate BMI I'd look too skinny!
  • Way to go Heidi! It's such a great feeling! I cant wait till I get back to that state!
