    Have any of you taken measurements to chart your progress?

    @buniphuphu - I first measured myself last February, about 5 weeks after I made my lifestyle change. At first I measured myself about every 2 weeks but now I measure about once per month.

    Since I started measuring I have lost a total of 36" combined. I only measure bust, waist, hips, thighs, and upper arms. The area where I have "shrunk" the most is my hips, where I've lost 10 inches. It's funny because I seem to lose inches in only one or two of these areas at a time.

    Yes, and I will take inches over pounds any day. I know the scale did not move for me last week, but my pants feel a little looser. Just keep doing what you are doing and continue on your weight loss journey.

    Sometimes the scale doesn't move as fast as you want it to, but that doesn't mean you are not getting smaller. Two weeks ago, I decided to take measurements to chart my progress in another way. Over the weekend, I measured again, and I've lost a lot of inches in two weeks:

    Neck: -.25"
    Waist: -4.5"
    Hips: -2.25"
    Bust: -1.5"
    Thighs: -4" (2"x 2 legs)
    Arms: -3" (1.5" x 2 arms)

    I use the MeThreeSixy app which compares for you. I love it!

    I hadn't been able to get ahold of my dad all day yesterday. So I went over there after work. He was fine. After some time searching thru his flip phone I found that his shaky fingers had somehow blocked me. We laughed. His new dog is settling in to her new home. In pure Dad form, he says "lets order pizza". He wasn't hungry but he didn't want me to be either. The new and improved cyndie said "I had a granola bar on the way here so I'm not really hungry."
    Woe Wait What??? No to pizza? The new Cyndie is showing!!

    I'm glad I'm not the only one whose dad still uses a flip phone. :)

    @cyndiesstuff so glad your Dad is okay. Just the phone is a good thing.

    It's not too cold here just now but I've finished work early, been shopping and am close to my step goal but don't want to go out again. I'll put on a walkxercise video to get more steps and do some stretch and tone exercises at the same time. I only had fruit and nuts at lunchtime because I wasn't hungry and I'd bought some Greek food for tonight's dinner, which will be high in calories.

    I ended up only doing enough exercise to get my step goal yesterday. I'd caught a sneezy cold and, although it's not bad, I just felt chilled down so I rested instead of pushing myself. I also went way over my calories. My husband bought After Eights and shortbread and we scoffed them. That rocketed my calories to 2222!

    I decided to work from home today and hope I'll still get my step goal. The numbers haven't been as good for me this week.

    Weigh in day along time ago
    Sw 259
    Cw 237.4
    Can I get put on the maintenance team please? I just havnt had the oomph to lose weight but I don’t want to gain weight, either. I need a time out. My labs r so good right now I’m okay being at this weight for awhile. We have 7 birthdays coming up plus Valentine’s Day and I will consider it a win if I maintain for now plus I’m mentally not into losing weight right now but I certainly don’t want to gain. Thank you😊
