Keep doing what you're doing and you'll continue to see results...first in the mirror and eventually on the scales!

Thanks you, Tuscany! You gals are great support. I trust the science too and, in time, the scale will show movement.
Measurements are down an inch on my hips and .5" on my waist and bust, a few cm on my arms and legs from when I was the same weight (only .2 lbs difference) on July 26th.
Today, I started weighing food and logging calories into myfitnesspal which is faster/easier to use than fitday. Nothing will be left to chance. ;-)
So, very slight movement today. .2 lbs down.
Sw 149.6 lbs
Cw 150.0 lbs still TOM
Gw 146.6 lbs
G'day, everyone!
