Oh my goodness! Thanks girls! I honestly didn't think it would be that big a deal although I'm so excited. Last night, my friend made me pull out the tape measure and see what 2 ft looks like. I was in awe that those inches came off my body.... Thank you all so much! :)

Yay!!!!
 
Awesome!!!!!!!!

Oh, I bet you are so excited! Screw the scale! I also decided I was only going to use it when I get to my "maintain" weight just to stay on track.


Wow thats a ton of inches! I would just be ready to die of happiness if I had lost that much body fat.

:hug: I'm so proud of you!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Wow, when I first saw 2 feet I said "it must be a lot" (we use meters here), then I converted that into meters and I just couldn´t believe it... 60 cms!
You are an inspiration specially bc you kept going even though the scale was not showing progress!!!!

Thats great news Heather :)
I actually never measured my inches - I wish I had of now.
I guess I could always start.

You should start now. I didn't measure my inches my first month when i lost that 19 pounds. But I'm so glad I did the first month I worked out. It's the only thing that kept me going when I didn't lose any weight. I was thinking I should have taken a lot of picture before. oh well. You live and learn.

OMG do I ever have a pair of goal pants for you. I bought a pair of Gap 14's on ebay, turns out they are extra long...when I wear them I have to fold them up nearly a foot. It looks ridiculous. so therefore, I do not wear them. Do you want them?

Ghost- um yeah! I sent you a PM.

I have the same problem with measuring ... i seen too be not losing too many inches but losing pounds instead .. ive lost about 17 pounds so far and my thighs are still the same measurements! not my waist though.

It does seem like it's one or the other.... you either lose inches or weight.... but don't they both even out in the end?

jahjah1223 10-22-2008 02:28 PM

They do , Which is why you should always stay motivated :D
