Tonight I was measured for the first time in 10 weeks. I got some surprising but overall pleasing results.
Chest: 47 inches (-1.5)
I am super excited about this small loss, for obvious reasons. I don't want to lose too much volume up there;) I am still seeing the back lose fat and I am probably gaining muscle too.
Waist: 43.5 inches (-8.5)
This seems like a lot to me. We tried measuring in a couple of different spots to make sure but each time there was only a slight difference. Obviously I am thrilled with these results. My waist is the biggest problem area I have and it has always been the hardest to see results in. This time is different! I attribute that to my running (which I did about 2 miles today!)
Hips: 50 inches (-2.5)
This is good. It is important to note that my hip measurement and waist measurement were practically the same to begin with. Now they are 6.5 inches different. Can you say hour glass?
Thighs: 26 inches (+1 per leg)
I have a couple of questions on this one. Is the gain due to muscle? Also, when you gain inches, do you subtract that gain from your overall loss (total inches lost)? I really don't want to, but am guessing I am supposed to.
Arms: 12.75 inches (-1.25 per arm)
Happy with this. I suspect that at some point my arms may level off and even begin to gain back inches in muscle. Has anyone found that to be the case?
I am happy with these results. This is a total of 14 inches lost (2 gained, but whatever) in 10 weeks!

Keelie, those results are AMAZING. No kidding. I'm not just saying that to be a rah rah cheerleader. I'm in awe! Look at those before and current photos. You've really come a long way. I'm surprised that you added an inch in your thighs. Do you think you might have measured incorrectly the first time around? It seems a little strange. Either way, over all you are doing so great, it's wonderful!
Congratulations!
Rock on hot Mama! These results are tremendous! I ran 2 miles today, and believe me that is huge for me because I normally hate hate running! Keep it up!
