      Can definitely see it in your arms, and I am seeing signs of a smaller neck as well! I see the difference all over, but those places are the two that are most noticeable to me.

                  amazing....keep up the good work. You should post your before and after picture (so far) on the fridge and that will always give you motivation.

                    I want to commend you on your progress so far. As Mary Poppins says, "Well begun is half done." I think starting is often the hardest part in any accomplishment. In addition to the noticeable loss of inches, do you feel physically or mentally any different/better?

                          I'm bumping this thread to add my 4 weeks pic. I have lots zero weight in the past week (thanks Wingstop! ), but my size has gone down.
