Default Apple shrinks!

On August 1st I measured 47-45-47. This was after having lost 24.5lbs, I've no idea of my start measurements.

Tonight I measure 42.5-39-42.5. Glad to have lost 15" - but have to smile at my determined apple-osity!!!!!

Rosinante ... I have been following your fabulous progress! Wow! You are doing so well. And, if you do the calculations, your waist is actually shrinking (a little) more proportionately than everything else. Congrats. CJ

So cool!

I had so much fun the year I was losing. And this was one of the reasons why. Watching my body shrink before my eyes, discovering my *real* body, knowing that I was the one that was making it happen was just the best! Each new discovery brought me more joy.

I'm so happy for you and I thoroughly enjoy hearing about your discoveries.

Thanks, guys!

Congrats on the loss! I know how you feel, my body has a case of determined appleness too. I'm hoping it'll change as I get smaller, but thus far it's keeping the same shape and everything's shrinking at about the same rate.

Seeing the scale move is awesome. But watching the inches melt away makes me happy too.

Congrats!

Thankyou, Apples and other fruits!

Readytobeme: it's one of the body shapes: a pear-shape has a smaller bust and big hips, a lot of people call it a a classic English shape. An apple shape is someone who carries most of their weight from bust to bm, with little or no defined waist. Often with great legs, which is a blessing, but it's a dangerous bodyshape: it's been recognized that more fat round the mid-section holds more of a threat of serious health issues due to the fat.

It's also a pain in the ... to get clothes - if I get trousers with a waistband to fit my "waist", they're way, Charlie-Chaplinly baggy round the behind.
And being a short apple (5'2") is a pain clothe-wise too, there's so little gap between bust and behind.

I do have good legs, so that when I used to wear a baggy top and leggings, I looked like a ball of knitting wool with two knitting needles stuck in.
