Weight loss and measurements ( and AW)

[karenj]

I have been pretty steady with my weight loss so far.  I started out with 100 lbs to lose.  Seems like it was a long weigh off.  This time I decided to take measurements and measure every month. 

So far I have lost 20.2 lbs and 12.75 inches.  20 lbs is alot but really you cant tell since I have so much to lose.  Not to mention that my clothes were all stretched to capacity so I am in the same clothes.  But those inches feel good.  Of course those are over all inches and I carry most of it in my midsection.  It was hard to tell if I was losing anything at all.  Feeling pretty good

Congratulations!!!! I'm trying to lose 50, so far I'm down 14 and although I'm not measuring inches, I can see and feel that I've lost quite a few.

Keep up the good work!!

Great job and I wanted to give you some extra support - I had 90 to lose and have successful lost it and maintained. It is true, when you first start out it is harder to tell a difference after 20 lbs. I think I lost a good 30 lbs before I even got to go down a pant size. But just wait - when you get further down there, even 5 pounds makes a big difference! 20 lbs is great, whether you can easily tell or not. Keep up the great work, you can do this!

That's awesome! I bet there's a visable difference YOU just can't see it because you look at yourself everyday

Thanks for the support. And the likes. I feel weird AW but I haven't really told anyone IRL except H and I don't think he gets it because he only has about 10 extra pounds he could lose if he wanted to. He has no idea what I weigh. LOL

I think most DH's are completly clueless, and I think God designed them that way as a favor to us!  At my heaviest I bet DH would have said I weighed 150, when in reality I was pushing 200 lbs and weighed more then him (and he is 6'4"!)

Keep at it! Day by day, decision by decision. The beginning is the hardest part.
