Tape Measure = Good Day?!
OMG. I busted out the tape measure today. I had taken a baseline measurement in mid July with the intent of measuring progress monthly but have managed to forget to do that. But I did it today and Houston, we have progress!
July numbers:
Chest: 41.5
Bust: 46
Waist: 41
Hips: 49
Thigh: 26
Calf: 16.5
Arm: 15
November numbers:
Chest: 37.5
Bust: 44
Waist: 38
Hips: 46
Thigh: 23
Calf: 15.5
Arm: 13.5
If you add up all the numbers, I have lost 17.5 inches in the last 4 months. No wonder my pants are falling off of me. The 2 numbers that I’m most astonished by is the waist (where I carry the majority of my excess weight) and the thigh (because I know that’s from this walking challenge!) I’ve also been thinking that the boobs are shrinking, which they are, but given the data set above I imagine they look relatively bigger since everything around them in smaller. I think this is a win all the way around. LOL
Anyway, I know I’m bragging but I’m just so pleased with myself I can’t even stand it. Thanks for putting up with my me-me-me blog today! XO Ellen

Aint’ it great when the chest sticks out further than the stomach? Curves start going in instead of out like they should? LOL
I bet that was a BIG booster for you to see those measurements. Probably a great thing you forgot to measure all these months cause now just LOOK at what you’ve got to celebrate! 17 1/2 inches!!!!!
