Way to go, I am going to try to find a measuring tape myself now, I have not done that yet.

You are doing great and I am so happy for you. Keep on keeping on, or should I say off.

Whoo hoo!
 
Way to go, Rainny! I did the measuring tape thing too, and only today discovered that in the past 6 months I've lost two inches off my waist. Slow progress compared to some, and I've still got a ways to go, but what the hey, I'll take it!

When do you buy new clothes?

{Way to go!! Are these results with the Keto diet?}

Hi Alma,
Thank you and its the CKD diet {cycling ketogenic diet} like what Fern did! I'm really enjoying this. I over did it this morning and pulled something in my back. I have the tenz unit on it right now...so I'll be ready to go tonight!! ha!

{You gotta love losing inches off the waist!!!}
Fern,
YESSSS I DO!! It was really hard to not work out this weekend!! But I was glad I didn't this morning! I really needed the rest after last week! I don't tell to many people about the inches I've lost! I worry about them not believing me. I'm having a hard time believing it myself! My best friend moved to away this summer...I did share it with her! Ha!


{WOW your a lucky lucky woman!! That is an astounding amount to lose in one week!!!}
Tinakaye,
Thank you! I know...it freaks me out! You have no ideal how many times I have measured myself since Friday! ha!
And let me add this! YOU ARE SUCH A MOTIVATOR FOR ME!! I talk about you and your GREAT success all the time! I am so very happy for you!!

LOL.....nice to see the excitement I know just how you feel.

It went good! I was so afraid I was going to swell back up form eating carbs!ha! I'm not sure I will ever get over that fear!:eek:
This is my second time to meet them...but I have been e-mailing his mom all the info of what we have been doing. About mid way threw the day...when she asked how much and how. That felt good! We then talked about Brian being the same size he was in high school and if he thought he was as big of a stud now as he did then! :p I think they consider me a real big improvement over his ex!:p
Anyway...by the time Sunday got here...my shorts where nice and comfy!! I WAS FEELING GGGGOOOOODD!
