This month's progress: Lost 4.6# Ate 2088 calories on average. Went to the gym 30 times this month with 6 full days off. Inches- up 0.5 on chest, lost 2" from top fat roll (muffin top) to equal 14.25 total from that area. Down 1" from hips for 13.25 total from there. Down 1/4" from calf for 4" total and down 1/4" from bicep for 4" total. Stayed the same everywhere else. This is 68.25" total from February 2019 and 61.6# lost. Goal for March 1st is 175# but only 29 days in February- Probably closer to 176.5# Finally wearing a size 10. Lots of compliments this month from people I haven't seen in a few months. I was told I look 10 years younger. (I strongly disagree with that. My fat has always stretched out my wrinkles and my weight loss has them in full force.) The people I see daily don't really say anything anymore and I'm ok with that. I don't like to constantly discuss my weight loss. Plus- I think that because my sister had lap band surgery that people are asking questions to try to surmise whether I have as well. No one wants to hear how I'm losing weight. They pretend they want to know- until I start to tell them and then their eyes glaze over. I was once them- so I get it. If it isn't difficult, then it won't work. If I am not miserably cutting calories then I won't be successful. So thankful I was wrong.

I never thought about measuring. I think I may start. That may be better for me than being so scale focused.

Thanks, Keilin! Yes Zedgardner- I lose inches but I add muscle which is heavier than fat so the scale doesn't show the body recomp. I measure and I take pics. Not fond of a bunch of pics so measuring is best for me.

Great progress! Definitely ‘Just doing it’!
Between old eyes and old screens I can’t see the wrinkles you speak of. But even if I don’t see yours I can relate to a turkey wattle. Really glad my wife likes my beard (maybe that’s why she does?).

Thanks, Tom! I make sure I don't have a beard- so that won't work for me. LOL! Maybe with more weight lost, it will someone become less. Either way, I look better than I used to and even if I didn't, I feel better!

That is just terrific, girl! I'm so happy for you! 30 times to the gym! You are a machine! And more than 14 inches off your middle?? You certainty are a whole new you! I know my body looks younger but my face has grown older looking. I wish we could just keep fat where we want it, but no... It must come off the most inconvenient places. Even with chubby cheeks gone, I do think you look younger than in the pictures we got to see when you were heavily. I suppose it is hard to see in just a photo, but you are absolutely lovely. Thank you for being here and inspiring us. I worked out hard five days this week. That was a record for me. Well, I've walked miles and miles every day sometimes, but to go to the gym thst is a new record. Gonna try this week too! Happy February! Goon be a good one!

Thanks, Melissa! And good job getting to the gym! I didn't go Saturday and I'm not going today either. Just don't feel like it and slowly learning to not beat myself up over it. 💕
