57firmie,

All the details about my inches lost, and my ongoing battle with trying to coax the same pound to let go are posted in my journal. I've also posted a graph of my weight loss, to make the point that we need to learn to deal with ups and downs. The start page is here:

AngelaR's Small Victories

Go to the last page of the journal to get the info about the inches gone.

If you haven't already started a journal, it's a great way to keep track of your own progress, post your frustrations and successes, and make new friends.

The main page for the journals is at
