Weigh In Day
The start of week 16:
weight 207
Measurements: 39 3/4
Waist 39 (If I measure too tight, I can get it down to 38 - been a very long time since I could do that!)
Abdomen: 47
Hips: 44 1/2
Been amazing how fast I have lost weight off my hips: started out at 52 " - 7 1/2 inches less there!
And 8.5 inches off my waist, too. That one's the most important one for my health. I read on the American Diabetes site that if your waist is below 39 inches, you have much less risk for insulin resistance.
The other day, my hubby told me I don't look so oversized any more...I look like a normal heavy woman...It doesn't sound like a complement to outsiders, but to me, it feels good.

Do you have any secret to lose
weight on the hips?
Love to know them.
You are doing awsome!
Keep us posted.

If I had secrets to spot weight loss, I'd use them on my tummy, so I could wear a size 16/18, but it looks like I just lose where my body wants to lose. I've been told it's last on first off, but I don't know about that...someday, I'll have a dress size that fits both my waist (at around a size 18/20, and my hips, at a size 16/18...but not yet!
