Ok ladies, a real question, because I am confused as all heck...
I measured my waist on Monday, sucked-in variety, and it measured 41 inches. (to make sure I was accurate, I had my boyfriend come over and check that yes, I was using the right end, that the tape was straight, and that that is what it really read.) I figured it would be a month before I lost a total of a few inches, since I've been counting calories and exercising for about three months.
Well on Thanksgiving, for some reason I decided to measure myself again. Sucked in, same place (right at my belly button), same way. I measured 38 inches. I checked it, remeasured... said the same. I called my boyfriend (who is out of town visiting family) to make sure that I had remembered my original number correctly. I did. I waited until the end of the day, when I had eaten, etc, and measured myself again. 38. This morning I measured again, just to be safe. 38.
I posted this on another forum, but no one seemed to be able to explain it, so I'm hoping you guys can. It I was just starting out then maybe, maybe I could understand it. Maybe if I had lost significant pounds, I would understand it, but my weight has gone between 190 and 192. I know the book says that weight doesnt matter as much, but I was looking for an explaination. I have none, and I really didn't think that, except for when you first starting losing weight, it was possible to lose that many inches in what, three days?
Please. Help me! Im confused!
