  • Happy to report inches gone

    I took my measurements last night finally: 8/20/07

    Chest- 46
    Waist- 42
    Hip- 48
    Thigh-26
    Upper Arm- 14
    Neck- 15
    Calf- 16

    Update 8/29/07
    Chest- 45
    Waist- 40
    Hip- 48
    Thigh-24.5
    Upper Arm- 13.5
    neck-15
    calf- 16

    Lost 4 inches in 9 days

    This is the first time I have taken my measurements while dieting. I find it rewarding to see a change. I know it is not much but I will take it to the bank.

                      I weighed myself today- I know I had already drank about 40 oz of water but still sitting in the same area.... No definate movement on the scales so of course I had to measure/ it makes me feel better to see that change at least.
