Do you measure yourself?
More and more as of late i'm seeing posts from postops..some real new some not so new talking about how they are not losing weight for weeks and all I see mentioned is pounds..
How many people actually take a tape measure and measure everything you can?
For the new postops..did you know that a true plateau is 4-6 weeks of no pounds OR inches lost..
Now..if you dont measure yourself faithfully, you will never know if you are or are not losing inches..therefore you will not know if you really are on a plateau :)
Did you know..that even when the scale shows NO loss..and even a slight gain..that you are still losing inches?
Our bodies lose weight in more ways than just losing pounds..
Take a tape measure..measure your neck, your bust, waist, thighs, wrists, hips..everything..
Do that once a week..and trust me on this..you will be absolutely amazed at just how much you really ARE melting :)
I just wish more people would focus on the postop process as a whole..it's much more than just losing pounds..
So whip out those tape measures and GO MEASURE! ;)
