I've been feeling blue. Ended a relationship, moved out, money is extra tight now, as are my clothes. Sigh.

So I've been chipping away at the weight loss thing, and have been down 10 lbs for what seems forever.

I took my inches the other day, and have lost 1 inch from my thigh, .5 from my calf, 1 from my arm, 1 from my waist, 1 from my hips, and 1 from my chest. None from my neck. Do I really expect to lose inches from my neck? No...

So, I feel good now. 10 lbs has stayed the same, but inches have changed. I fit in a pair of pants that got shuffled to the bottom of the pile. That's good, too...25 more lbs to go.

Keep on cruising.

    That is fantastic. Remember, the scale can lie but the tape measure doesn't. I was up over 2 lbs this past week, but I took my measurements to see if there was a change. I had lost another inch in my waist, so I wasn't upset anymore. Measurements are important too.
