I know we have LOTS of different challenges with weekly weigh ins and we focus on that number a ton. However, do we have any groups for inches lost or measurements?

If we don't who would be interested in a June group that would do weekly measurements?

    I thought we could set a goal for yourself for the month. Each week you will measure chest, waist, hips and thighs (anything else you personally want to add). Each week you will report you report your measurements. I have lost just over 13 inches all over my body in 2 months. That sounds so much better then 6 pounds in 2 months.

    Any other ideas? I wouldn't mind doing a weekly fitness and nutrition challenge if everyone would like to add that.

    I am interested. I have only been a week into my lifestyle change and have not measured my body at all. So I wouldn't know what an achievable goal would be.

    Losing inches does sound so much better than the slowly melting pounds. I think you laid out a great plan for doing this.

    I am interested in joining. I have only measured myself a few times, but I think it will help inspire me!

    I am going to start the this on Monday so we can always log every Monday for month of the of June. You can do your measurements on Tuesday or Wednesday though if that is easier this week.
