hi guys
i decided to finally do a inches check. after i lost 15 pounds i measured myself after reading about it on here. it was frightening when i saw those numbers. UGH
i wanted to share this because:
1. it is an awesome motivator
2. it gave me a realistic view of my loss
3. the scale isn't everything
4. medifast works---just measure yourself!
here are the parts i measured after doing some research from body-building sites, health/weight loss books:
1. neck
2. shoulders (arms should be down at your sides, wrap the tape all the way around your back)
3. chest
4. waist (smallest part, when i first did this there was no such section so i measured just above my belly button)
5.hips
on these keep a record of each, i was surprised that they were different measurements on me):
6. right and left biceps
7. right and left triceps
8. right and left thighs
9. right and left calves
i know this sounds like alot of measurements, but it really gave me a sense of what my entire body was doing.
since starting medifast i have lost a total of 39.25 inches. oh my goodness!!!!!
i have also lost over 50 lbs. or should i say, gotten rid of that weight!
anyway, i wanted to share this info cause you guys are awesome and i am soooooo excited!!! i hope this helps add to the fun of medifast success, it sure made it a great motivator to me and gave me a real boost of confidence!!
everyone have a great rest of the weekend
your shakin friend
