Four weeks in and my new healthy eating is becoming a way of life for me. I haven't lost as much weight as many of you seem to do in the first few weeks and I was a bit disappointed until this afternoon!

Today was our first 4 week measure up (me n the girls at work are in this together).

So, having lost only 5 lb in 4 weeks I was absolutely delighted to find out that inches have been dropped somewhere along the way . . .

1 from my neck
2 from under my bust (luckily my bust stayed the same)
1/2 inch from my waist
1 from around my belly
1 1/2 from my hips
1 1/2 from my right thigh and 1/2 from the left
1 1/2 from my right 'bingo wing' and 1 from the left

so 9 1/2 inches . . . I can't believe it . . . I am amazed and now can't wait to get measured again next month!!

    Bingo wing is that horrid skin/fatty bit that hangs down when you put your arms out wide :bigsmile:
