Almost too embarrassing to admit, but...

I've been taking measurements...and my 60" tape wasn't quite long enough to measure my hips (gulp) ...but today, THE TAPE FLIPPIN' TOUCHES!!!!!! :D (TMI perhaps...but that includes the 'apron')

Thank you so much. I'm so grateful for a place where people "get" and aren't judgmental of the good, the bad, and the ugly. :)

That's awesome!

Aww, that is so AWESOME!! we would never "judge" you.

It is the little things that add up and make us so happy!! Keep up the good work!

Kelly :D

That is a wonderful NSV! That is a landmark! To me it ranks right up there with not having to be weighed at the feed store, not having to use a seat belt extender, and not having the slats fall out from underneath the bed when you lay down on the mattress.

BTW - I take two measurements - I measure my "belly" - which is what I call the largest part of my stomach / apron. I also measure my "hips" - which is where the widest part of my butt is - and it is (now) just below where the apron ends. I even lifted up the d**n apron to get this measurement early on. I take that measurement to let myself know what my hips would be if I get the apron removed. (I can dream, right?)

GOOD JOB!!!!!

Awesome, and it's definitely not TMI! Theres so much that's embarrassing around weight issues, but you are in good company here, and we can ALL relate!

That is wonderful!!!!! (NOT TMI.....) :)
