my latest measurements

I decided to measure myself again as it had been a while since I had and I have been keeping track every few months on paper. I lost 16 pounds when I was on holidays and I knew I had lost lots of inches in my legs and hips as I had bought new clothes before I went away to Europe and now they are falling off me again. Thank god for Walmart, Value Village and second hand stores. Here are the comparisons since my surgery June 26, 2007 Neck 18" Breasts 53" Hips 63" Legs 32" Arms 18" Wrist 7" Ankles 12.5" Knees 21 Waist 49" August 14/08 Neck 13.5" Breasts 37.5" Hips 41" Legs 23" Arms 13" Wrist 6" Ankles 10" Knees 18" Waist 36.5" I still can not believe sometimes as it feels weird to be this small. I am now around 20-30 pounds from goal. I am not obsessing about it. As a matter of fact I feel fine if I stay this way too. If more weight comes off that's great too but I am not pushing it as my body needs time to adjust to the new weight and the rest will come off slowly and with time and that's okay. I was 323 pounds the day of surgery on June 26/07 and now I weigh around 170 pounds. I would like to be around 140-150 ish or so if possible.
