Default 1st Weeks Results - can't believe it!

Bonjour!

Am measuring myself after just 1 week on induction and I cannot believe I am down 7lbs already.

But even more incredible, I have lost a whole 4 inches from my waist!! How is this possible? Where the gubbins has it gone?
Aswell, have lost an inch off each thigh, an inch off my bust and an inch off my hips, so 8inches in total - amazing. very glad I measured now!

Am going to be positively hourglasse-y if this carries on (fingers crossed!)

weigh to go keep shrinking go look at 7 butter boxes and you will see how all those inches left you fat is a large bulk molecule but light in weight for its size.

Those are fabulous numbers for your first week Carbaholic! Congrats, your work is paying off. It's funny how it happens sometimes, if you're doing anything at all in the way of exercise, and just sometimes for seemingly no reason, you'll lose inches and not pounds, but it's ALL steps forward, so keep going, and you'll be at goal before you know it! Just remember, measure AND weigh, I'm glad you're doing both, because progress is progress, whatever form it comes in!

Wait, I'm a guy. Disregard that last comment. Not the guy comment. The hourglass comment.

My measurements are going alright. I suppose. I'm pretty much down to a 32, just waiting for it to get a little looser in the crotch area, so I can go back to wearing boxers when I wear those "tighter" pants. Granted, I look pretty darn good in boxer briefs. I know my measurements aren't going to get very much smaller, so I guess it's pretty safe to start buying myself a new wardrobe.

Oh, and medium shirts make me look buff. Problem is, I don't really want to look buff. I want to look slender.

I'm cut! With a butter knife!
