So... my surgery was April 16th and it's been about a month since I have measured myself...

I am happy to report that 10 inches have fallen off my Hips, Waist AND Chest!!! So, 30 inches in just those 3 key areas!! I am so happy that I am losing inches evenly!!! I was a good size 24/26 and am now fitting comfortably in a size 18... YAY!!

Did I mention that I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!! Best decision I have EVER made and best money I have EVER spent!!!!

Yaaay! Congrats to you, keep up the good work! I regret not measuring myself before surgery, I wish I could have charted that too but....I know I am losing , that is all that matters!!!

Inches were definitely one thing that I wanted to track so I am glad that I created a log. When I would stall and the scale stopped I found that I would lose inches so it was very comforting!!

It's never too late to start!!

You're right, Barb. It's never too late to start measuring yourself!! I just did my measurements this morning and I've lost another inch and a half from my waist. I'm sure that measurements have kept me sane throughout this journey!!

Congrats on 30 inches gone FOREVER!!!

That's amazing! I'm super happy for you. What kind of exercise are you doing ?

[barrbdoll 287]

Just basic toning (free weights. sit-ups, etc..) at home... I am not a gym freak and the only cardio I get is yard work and some walking here and there...
