    Bye-Bye Inches

    Tomorrow I weigh in. No work today due to the holiday & I use the scale at my dr's office at the hospital.

    Measured & lost 8.25". Grand total of 17.75". WOO HOO!!!!!!!!

    Keeping my fingers crossed for a decent weight loss.

    Woo hoo! Congratulations Glenda, that is great news. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too but keep in mind even if you don't lose as much as you are hoping for having lost that many inches means that you are doing it right and you are already looking thinner and getting fitter then you had been.

    Keep it up!

      Fantastic Glenda !!! That is a great loss of inches. Just don't forget those lost inches when you get on the scale, in case the pounds lost isn't huge, you know your body is shrinking.

        That is fantastic, Glenda. Inches are soooo much fun to drop. I feel the inches loss on my body more than when I lose a pound by the scale. Does that make sense? I'll take inches over pounds anyday.

              Great job on the inches lost!!! That is wonderful. I have not measured myself since starting this WOL, you just made me realize that I really should. I have read DANDR and I understand the importance of it....but it's been something I keep putting off.

              Way to go, keep it up and thanks for the inspiration!!!

                  The measuring tape is the way to go lancelotsgirl! For me seeing the inches lost has been the most encouraging...along with everyones posts.

                  Sunny thanks for the WOO HOO!
