So thrilled, I took the advice of my MFP pals and took my measurements this morning. I have lost a total of 3.5" since Nov. 13 but my weight has not changed. This is the boost I needed and I hate to admit I am such a numbers person but when the scale hadn't budged in the last 3 weeks my frustration was building. Funny thing is that I felt that my clothes were looser but I kept telling myself I was imagining it because the numbers on the scale hadn't changed. Lesson learned, don't focus on the scale AND believe in yourself!

    That post should be the first thing people see when they log on to MFP, & it should be set up as an auto-response to every thread that starts with "I wanna quit because the scale isn't showing that I've lost weight" - Congratulations on a job well done, on sticking with it & on being flexible enough to listen to those who told you there was another way to measure success.........
