    What a fantastic job! I know pounds are super satisfying to see disappear, but inches are the next best thing! Congrats! :flowerforyou:

    Not that many pounds? You've lost over half a stone!

    Pat yourself on the back mate.

    That is fantastic! Congrats!! I really have made the mistake by not measuring myself. I know it's a much more true account of how we are doing.

    Hopefully this will inspire those (including myself) that get pi$$ed off with the scale when it decides to play head games with us! And help us to realize that the scale is a guideline but only that!!

    Great job!!! 7 lbs in 9 weeks is good. The slower it comes off, the more likely you will KEEP IT OFF!!!

    I wish I would of had taken measurements at the beginning. I have gone from a tight size 14 to a very comfortable size 12. Don't be a slave to the scale, your measurements prove this is working.
