Of course D was encouraging and reminding me that I am doing so good & not to give up... and said, "let's take your measurements". It's only been a week, so I wasn't expecting much at all ~ especially when the scale said I gained 1 pound. We broke out the tape measure...

bust ~ -1 inch
hips ~ -1/2 inch
leg ~ 1 inch
arm ~ - 0
and waist ~ -3 inches!

HOLY SHIT! That's a total of 5 1/2 inches lost in ONE WEEK!

Sometimes the scale doesn't always reflect the changes that our bodies are making! Please don't get discouraged! If your clothes are fitting looser and your body just feels better ~ you are on the right track!

WOW on the inches lost my friend, that's sooooo wonderful.. so proud of you! and good on you for not getting down about weight lost, i have weeks like that too, where i dont lose anything... i am marking a measuring tape down on my list of things to get next week when i go shopping, because i should be measuring inches lost too, it would soo serve as motivation too..

i was saying to Mtn last night that feeling my clothes loose on me, feels SO good, and a girl mentioned at work last night that my scrub shirt looked so much more looser on me.. i got so excited, just hearing those words..

Thank you for this tip my dear, and we ARE on the right track! (((hugggz)))
