i told myself when I got pregnant--that I wasn't going to gain that much. well 40 lbs later. I told myself RIGHT after the baby was born, I would lose it....

it has been slow. I have been very frustrated. I do realize it takes alot for me to lose weight. I usually lose LOTS AND LOTS of inches, before I lose weight.

well 2 lbs gone, and I lost a back roll! I still got to fight the main one, but that one on my lower back was really annoying me.





I wonder if others can tell.

One month progress: -5 lbs.

i'm guessing the no replies, means you can't see it. no worries. I have a tape measurer. Since the scale is not my friend...i keep up with my inches. I hate the SCALE.

Yay to loosing back roll. =]

I lose inches before pounds too. it sucks!

I don't know if I can see the specific roll, but you look slimmer in general, and you have great legs, lady! Jealous! Anyway, I agree, the scale sucks and inches are my friend (the lack thereof, that is )

well, at least i know i have 2 commiserators with the scale issue. saw, so you generally keep up with the inches too? how long does it usually take you to see a pound drop on the scale?

thanks rainy days for the compliment about my legs. I usually don't have too much problem with them...its my back and tummy.

Awesome JEN!

now, stay away from that bologna....wink and a hug!

lol..EZ. I FIND bologna is harder to digest when I'm trying to lose weight....lol.

ooo i can see it. your back does seem slimmer. looking good!

yay. You don't know how much this encourages me!

Your lower back is definitely looking tighter ! it's great that you're getting noticeable results already--keep up the great work!

thanks yossarian. I actually have to take some more photos. I'm down to 196 now, which is -5 lbs. I have been jogging on the rebounder, so most likely it will show a lot in my legs again.

I can tell! Good job keep it up!

thanks everyone, i updated, because I needed a boost. Only 5 lbs down, but I really can tell in the pics and by my clothes...I am slimming down.
