No...I was told by the Hourglass group that in order to have an Hourglass figure you need to have a large bust and large hips. My hips are smaller then most

I guess I am the only one out there....how sad is that???

I am not sure if I am half an hour glass figure...I have an ok waist line but I still think I am chunky in that region with a 28.5. My hips are small with a measurement of 35.5. I am top heavy I started out at 42 inches and am down to 38 inches. My Mom calls me an icecream cone shape!!! Go figure!!!

Ignore the scale, it's like watching a pot of water that won't boil. You are doing great because you are losing inches. Don't worry the scale will catch up with the inches, it just takes some time!! :smile:

Yes, since January 1st I have only taken one rest day. I think it's because I feel guilty about "slacking off" and there is a bit of a fear that once I rest for a day I will have a hard time starting up the next day. There is also a deep seated fear that I will gain weight which I know is irrational but, it's a fear just…

I started on January 1st as well and was a hefty 184.5 pounds and am down to 151.5 as of this morning. I exercise at least one hour a day and am using the Weight Watchers program. It truly works and I feel great. 14 more pounds to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been there as well when I dropped 12 pounds in the first month and then stopped for 3 weeks. Just keep on doing what your doing and the weight will come off.
