Measurements

A little late, but better than never...

This week was measurement week. The third time that I have taken them since the beginning of this journey. Here are the results...bust - lost 1/2 inch for a total of 2 1/2 inches since week 1, waist - lost 1 inch for a total of 3 inches, hips - lost 1 inch for a total of 2 1/2 inches, arm - lost 1 inch for a total of 2 inches, and leg - lost 1 1/2 for a total of 2 1/2. This month I lost a total of 5 inches and a total of 12 1/2 inches since the beginning!

It was great to watch the Biggest Loser finale this week. Seeing the end results of all of those contestants was inspirational and motivating. The at home winner lost 49.8% of her body weight and the grand prize winner, Danny, lost 239 pounds (I don't remember the percentage, but it was over 50%!)! I can't wait for the day of my "reveal"! Seeing the joy on all of their faces was so exciting! If you didn't watch it, you can catch it online.

Week 13 Results

I am amazed and excited to report that I lost 3 1/2 pounds this week! That brought me to a total of 22 1/2 pounds! Now, there is officially $200 in the pot for the first 20 pounds lost. From here on out, I will be putting the money in in $50, or 5 pound, increments. This was supposed to be the day to measure inches, but I forgot. So, I will try and measure tomorrow and post those results then.

Hope everyone is getting their Christmas shopping done!! And don't forget to tune into the Biggest Loser finale tomorrow night!
