So, my first 6 or so lbs just melted off...but now it is going MUCH slower. :explode: I workout 5-7 days a week...not just a little workout...hard stuff...sweat till I think i might die kinda stuff...so since I havent been losing much lately I was rather irritated. it had been about 2 weeks since I measured so I did this morning...and I have lost 11 inches total!!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

My waist is down 1.5 inches, my hips (love handle area...not real hips) are down 1.5 inches...everything is getting smaller!!! :noway: :smile: :laugh: :bigsmile:

I guess what they say is true...muscle weighs more than fat! Cause I can tell from measuring and wearing clothes that I've lost some "cushion"!!! :blushing:

Hooray for measuring!! And good luck to everyone!!!:drinker:

    YEAH! Muscle does take up less room than fat! Isnt that a wonderful thing!!??

    I am going thru that right now. I have been really slowing down in the weight loss arena, but went down another pant size.

    So happy to be healthy!

    Good luck...your doing a great job!:flowerforyou:
