OMG!!! I just tallied my total inches of fat lost! I've lost 49.875 inches since I started measuring on July 12, 2007. How awesome is that?!?! That ROCKS!!
Here are the individual item totals:
Abs-Down 6.625"
Sucked In Abs-Down 10.375"
R arm-Down 5"
L arm-Down 5.25"
R thigh-Down 5.125"
L thigh-Down 4"
Chest-Down 4.875"
Neck-Down 2.125"
Pannus-Down 6.5"
YAHOO!!! How motivating is THAT?! I am PUMPED!
I can't believe how far I've come! My heart is leaping with joy! YAHOO!! YIPEE!! THAT TOTALLY ROCKS!!!
I knew it was going to be a motivator for me to do the totals but I didn't actually realize how far I'd come. That's soooooooooooooooooooooooo cool! I can't believe it!
What a great motivator to keep moving forward (not that I wasn't planning to anyway). ;-)
I actually just called my husband with the info too. I asked him to "Guess how many inches I've lost so far, since I started measuring myself in July?". He said, "Ummm.....20 inches?". I said, "Nope, double that plus". He said, "OMG, really?" and I said, "How about 49.875 inches of fat!?!". He was amazed! He said, "That's so awesome! It's amazing! Great job honey!". I think he's going to start measuring himself too. Heck, how do you keep track of how far you've come, if you don't have a baseline. Right?
OK Folks---the lesson here is measure yourself! Take those measurements weekly or bi-monthly so you know where you've been and you can keep track of your progress. I can tell you it is an absolutely AMAZING feeling to be on this side of almost 50 inches of fat gone!! :-)
I'm on cloud 9 and I'm going to go for a bike ride! Here's to even more success!
Hugs from a very happy Phoenician,
