Weigh In & Measurements

So I've just weighed in this morning and am happy to say I am down to 145 lbs. Also took measurements.

CHEST
(start): 40.5"
(now): 37"

WAIST
(start): 36"
(now): 32"

HIPS
(start): 43"
(now): 36.5"

Just thought I'd share that with everyone, a total of 14" lost so far!! Woohoo!!:bigsmile:

sometimes you see more change in your measurements than you do in your actual weight, you could be turning that fat into muscle, so the weight won't reflect the changes you may be feeling!!
It's crazy to know that I've lost 6.5 inches just in my hips, that's over half a foot!!! Makes you realize how much you've lost that's for sure!!

gREAT JOB !!! Tell us what you been doing to achieve such results !

100% dedication to logging all my calories (even if you cheat a little)....working out 3-5 days a week.
I take a strenth training class once a week, go to Pilates 1-2 times a week and Step class twice a week. And making sure I eat most if not all of my exercise calories.
It definately didn't come off overnight, it's been 7 months now almost....slowly but surely!

Also just recently started drinking whey protein drinks after I finish a workout to help the muscles repair themselves and help build lean muscle.

WOW you must be a lot more muscle then me....

I have almost the same measurements but i weigh 130....

i wanna be like you :grumble:

GREAT JOB! Just think how great your gonna look in a bikini this year!!!

woooohooooo

Thanks - I like to think I'm getting pretty toned, my husband is fit - but a skinny guy (6'2" @ 162 lbs) and my arms are about as big as his - not sure if that's good or bad...LOL
Still trying to get rid of that mummy tummy and the flub on the thighs, but I can definately feel the muscle under the flub. :laugh:
