3 Mos. Post Op

[Lisa821 29]

You can see my ticker so I don't want to talk about weight. It's been three months and I want to Celebrate the inches I have lost! I'm going to post them by date because I think it's more telling that way. Oh and I didn't measure EVERYTHING on my body, just a few reference points.

Preop 11/1/11 12/19/11 1/12/12 2/2/12

Waist: 42.25" 41.75" 40" 39"

Hips: 51" 50" 49" 48.5"

Left Calf: 17" 16.5" 16" 16"

Left Thigh: 30" 29.25" 29" 28.25"

As you can see I rounded the numbers. I will attest to the fact that even when I don't lose pounds I am still losing inches. To all of us who freak out when we plateau for a few days or a week, we need to take a deep breath and get out the tape measure. Remember it's not a stall until it's been 4 weeks without any weight loss. That's what my NUT said and she added that it's still not a stall if I'm losing width in the form of inches or PARTS of inches. She said it's all progress and we must strive for progress, NOT perfection. I love my little NUT!

Keep fighting the good fight my friends!!!! Big Hugs!
