Thumbs up Lovely measurements!!!

Well, I am at 2 months now and decided to take my measurements.

In general, I have lost over 30 inches!!!!

I am so excited. The waist alone is 10 inches!!!! 6 1/2 off the hips and 6 off the bust!!! (Misc. on legs and arms)

The skin is doing o.k. so far. Been drinking alot of fluids and working out like a mad woman!! I told my trainer I'd rather have bulky arms than bat wings. He started laughing!!!

I want to thank everyone here again for the support. I love this forum and all the wonderful people on it!!

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."
