Inches lost

I did a quick measurement of my waist and hips last night, and I've lost 2 inches off each!!! This is wonderful news considering I didn't lose any weight (according to the scale) last week.

If you haven't taken your measurements yet, DO IT. It will be great encouragement when the scale stops moving to be able to compare those inches lost to show that you ARE making progress.

Cathi, that is awesome!  I took my measurements on Surgery Eve and even tried measuring my thigh again last night....not sure why because I don't think it changed in a week.  And, I was right.  All in good time.  I also figured out that I need to put the scale away because my obsession with it isn't good.

Way to go Cathi! I took my measurements before surgery but I haven't since. I'm curious now if there are any changes.

I don't own a scale and I wonder if I should get one because I know I would get obsessed with getting on the scale.

Yeah, I don't own a scale because I know I'd be on it several times a day obsessing. I may end up buying one later, but for now, I'm just going to get weighed at my doctor visits.
