Before and During...Not Done Yet!!!

Big fat told you so.:D

You did nothing stupid. You just need to not get upset before you find out if there is a logical reason for things happening.
Like the 35" waist.:)
 
Here are my first set of measurements I did on 3/31:

waist - 39"
hips - 46"
under my belly (across pelvic bone) - 41"
right thigh - 24"
left thigh - 23 1/2"
right calf - 17"
left calf - 16 1/2"
both biceps - 13"
neck - 14"
bust - 43 1/2"
under breasts (band of bra) - 38"


These are my measurements from Saturday:

waist - 35
under belly (across pelvic bone) - 39 1/2
right thigh - 23 1/2
left thigh - 23
right calf - 16 1/2
left calf - 16
left bicep - 13
right bicep - 12 1/2
neck - 14 (no change)
bust - 41
under breasts (band of bra) - 36
ankles - 9 for each
wrists - 6 1/2

Change:

Waist - 4"
Under belly - 1 1/2"
Right thigh - 1/2
Left thigh - 1/2
Right calf - 1/2
Left calf - 1/2
Bicep - 1/2 in right only
neck 0
bust - 2 1/2
Band - 2

Pretty cool stuff.
 
Holy shit! That's so awesome. 4" in the waist. I need to buy some measuring tape. That'd be a great progress gauge. Way to go, Ali! Keep it up.
 
Thanks Fish!

It was stunning to do the recap since I literally didn't see a drop in the scale until Saturday. I think I have lost 2 pounds in the time b/t those sets of measurements.

It was good to have some other form of progress to watch b/c otherwise I would have gone batty.

More than usual, anyway ;)
 
Ok so apparently I have gone from not seeing any change in myself to seeing it all at once :)

I guess I like extremes.

I have been taking picutes of myself b/c i just can't beleive it.

How silly is that? I feel like a goofball...

Post or noone will believe you.:D


psst....I was doing the same thing yesterday......
 
I am honestly afraid I am going to put people to sleep :)

Most are headshots which don't show progress, just my swelled head.

I am glad I am not alone though :)
 
Here is an experiment - these two pictures were taken on 3/23/08 and today...is there a difference?

[/IMG][/IMG]

Oh crap, there is :)

I'm not being dramatic, I honestly didn't know until I previewed the post.
 
No kidding - I keep looking at it and it is shocking to me - all that w/just a 2 lb drop...

TAKE THAT, SCALE! HAHAHA :)
 
I was never real good at these games..
There is a grandfather clock in the first one, not the second one...
There is a blue bag thing on the desk in the second one....

oh crap- that isn't what I should have been looking at right?:D

You look great! There may not have been weight lost but the damn dress fits better. That is all I shall say. I shall not talk about the cleava......
 
You're lookin' awesome. I'm happy for you that you are finally seeing the changes yourself. I am in your old boat. I see that I'm losing weight, and I can tell that my pants are looser, but when I look at myself in the mirror I really don't feel like I look different. Maybe if I put up and old/new pic side-by-side. Nonetheless, you look smokin'!
 
BTW- your arms & shoulders look fantastic.:D



*whistles*
Still not mentioning the cleavage.......
*whistles*

Fish, I didn't thank you for this...THANK YOU :)

That old boat is sinking, get the hell out and join the rest of us...one day you will just look at yourself and all at once, you will see the change. It took me almost a year and a half and dang close to 80 pounds to get there.

Do the old/new pics - I was literally shocked when I did this. I had no idea.

I don't think I have ever been called smokin' before, I like it!!
 
Congratulations on your weight loss! You're doing fantastic. I also just have to tell you that your baby is such a doll!! =]
