Good grief, I finally got around to taking my measurements which I have not done since 1 month post op. Now here I am at 4 months post op and down 63 3/4 inches. So as I was showing my husband the numbers it dawns on me that I have lost my height. Oh. My. Goodness. And I am not even to goal. Part of me is seriously embarrassed that I could lose my height in inches off my body but the other part of me says BOOYAH!

And this last week I went to my grandparents wedding and fit a size 12 dress and a medium shrug. I cannot even tell you the last time I fit in either one of those sizes.

So many NSVs now which I do believe I love more than watching the scale move. So many people in the past weeks that I have not seen since before surgery and well their reactions were kind of cool yet embarrassing at the same time. One lady even went up to my husband and told him how good I looked lol.

Now it's time to bust my butt and lose those last 22 lbs, I won a free outdoor photo shoot for the family and I desperately want to be at goal and feeling comfortable in my own skin before the shoot

WOW!! CONGRATS CONGRATS!! That is crazy!! that is alot of inches...

YOU GO!

How did you measure your inches? From Aug 2010 when my doc took my measurements, I am down 19.75 I was around 215 then am now 179. Just wondering what I'm doing wrong lol. I only measured one side, am I supposed to measure both sides?

WOW!! You are doing wonderful!! How great that you won a photo shoot!!

WOW! WAY TO GO!

THanks everyone~

Raine-I probably go a little overboard with my measurements as I like to see what the numbers are in all the major areas. And I find differences in what I have lost between each leg and arm.

I measure my head, neck, left arm, right arm, bust, under bust, waist, stomach, hips, left thigh, right thigh, left calf and right calf. Hope that helps

Congrats on your weight loss so far!!!! You are so close to goal!!!!

That's amazing, you're doing so great!! Congrats!!

:cheer2:

That's fantastic!! Way to go girl. Congrats on winning a photot shoot as well, that should be really fun to get some new pics in your new body. :welldone:
