hello jacki, its not to late to measure,,,sometimes that is were you will see the change and not the lbs,,,so its just there in encurage you ,,, i dont measure everywhere, when i measured in the beginning i couldnt even put the tape around my lower tummy,,,so i guessed,,and now it fits with a few inches to spare,,,i had bought is tape that will click together you unclick when it fits and then you can see,,,i couldnt see alot of me so that helped,,,tummy ,,lower tummy ,,upper leg,, knee,, lower leg ,,upper arm ..and neck that was all i did,so others may measure different and get more,,,im just glad those inches are gone,,,lol, i think you probably have lost about the same inches as me,,,because ive lost about 63lbs,,,,good luck your friend w/a pouch sandy

So true Sandy - the inches can save your sanity when the scale is being mean

way too true. If I hit a stall or see a little gain I get out the tape measure just to keep me straight. It's almost always during those times that I see the biggest decrease in inches or my clothes are starting to get loose.

Hello surgery buddy. So nice to see you posting again. I need the boards more than ever when I am on a stall (henceforth you understand why I have been posting so much!) Isn't it awesome to go shopping now? I have a lot of weight to loose yet, but am just about in the regular section in the stores. Man, won't that be a change? Can't wait to buy cute stuff!! I completely understand about the pounds vs inches thing. I stall weight wise alot, but the inches still come off. You are doing great, better than me and the doc says I am right where he wants me. So, CONGRATULATIONS! Don't stop posting OK?? ~Diana~

Hi Sandy, I am SO happy for you!! I just started measuring my inches a few weeks ago, & your're right it really does help when the scale isn't budging. I have lost 57lbs. since surgery, & in the past 4 weeks measuring my neck, waist & hips - 10 inches!! I am loosing my hair like crazy, so I have increased my protien. The chili sounds like a GREAT idea! take care. Love Ya! Hugs, Heather

What a ding dong I am! I posted a reply and never included inches! Yikes! At three months I had lost 39 overall. I will update again on the 13th.
