Well, I am assuming that I am losing fat and gaining muscle because the scale hasn't really moved much in a couple months now.....BUT I am still losing inches!!!!!!
I had a goal to lose 20 lbs. before Halloween, started this goal in Aug. I only lost 2 lbs according to the scale, but I've lost an inch and a half EVERYWHERE.......off hips, bust, waist, thighs! So, the jeans that I wanted to fit into by Halloween are starting to slip right on The 18 petites are a bit tight, but the 18 regulars and 20s are comfortable!
I've been so disappointed because I hadn't lost any weight, I was really starting to get frustrated and hopeless. I kept plugging away anyway, especially after I was able to get my wedding ring off. I'm so glad that I stayed on track

Congratulations! That is really great. Keep up the good work!

I was just about to post almost the same thing I went to the store today and had went from a 24 in dress pants (I wouldn’t were jeans before) when I started loosing, to JEANS that were 22 short in early October, and today I just bough 20 short! They are a bit tight but I am so happy I can’t wait to be out of the 20s!!!

PS – I love buying pants from fashion bug, although I hear their jeans actually run a bit on the small size, because they have “short” jeans where are not narrow in the hips like petite jeans but have a shorter inseam so those of us who are height impaired and have real bodies can wear them.

Congrats! Never under estimate the power of losing inches...as your body tones, you may not lose weight, but you will lose inches...which is just as nice!

I was inspired so much by the people on here! (THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU) I had seen so many people say that they had lost inches.......I hadn't even thought to measure when I first started to lose! Lesson learned for sure
