Who Measures Their Progress in Inches?
I'm just wondering who else out there took their pre-op measurements--sometimes when I don't see the scale move, I can still see my measurements shrinking. Anyone else wanna share?
I took my monthly measurements and here are a few WOWS for me:
Pre-op/Post-op in inches
Neck: 17, now 13.5
Bra: 44, now 33.5
Chest: 52, now 37
Waist: 47, now 31 (did I EVER think I'd have a 31" waist?!?!)
Apron: 52, now 36.5
Low Hips: 52, now 38.5
Thigh: 29, now 21
Calf: 18.5, now 15
I now have a hard time visualizing myself the old, bigger size but the numbers are clear. I'm very proud of my progress. I'm 5'11 and in a size 8. I am terrified of regaining, as I think most people are who post on our board but that's why we're here--for the support.
Congrats to all the new butterflies!
