As many have said, measuring yourself is a great way to really see what's happening with your body. The scale may lie, but measurements usually don't. This morning, I realized that in December I went "down" to one of my old belts that was in the closet.
I tried it on and the first hole was all I could use. This morning I noticed that I'm now in hole 3, and may be moving more soon! So, pay attention to the belt if the scale seems to be lying to you!
