Weigh In & Measurements 10/24/12

Disclosure: This post may contain referral/affiliate links.

I am keeping track of my monthly measurements in Evernote but also want to stay accountable to you all.  So I’m going to try to remember to do a monthly post to update you on how I’m doing.  Feel free to remind me if I miss one.

In addition to monthly measurements, I’ll do weekly weigh in’s and post those on my daily exercise log on Sunday’s.

As of 10/23/12

Weight: 252

Waist: 48

Hips: 49

Bust: 46 above

Bust: 48 across

I never know how to measure for this.  Need to get it right so I can get some new sports bras!

Right bicep: 15

Right thigh: 28

I used to take a lot more measurements but I’m keeping it simple.  I will however take my body fat % and BMI with my Omron fat loss monitor.  Here are my initial numbers.

Body Fat %= 47

BMI= 43.3

So there you have it.  I am ready to see these numbers go down, down, down!  I personally don’t care about the scale as long as I keep losing inches.  The numbers on the scale don’t mean anything anyway.  It’s how you feel that counts.

Do you do a weekly weigh in and monthly measurements?

P.S. Here’s a great offer for you.

      Oh definitely no daily weigh in for me. I’m lucky if I remember to do it weekly but I need to see some progress one way or another (scale or inch loss). Either is good for me.

      Thanks so much, Amanda!

    You go girl! It is so brave of you to put it right out there. And because of that you will hit your goal. Being someone who works with people trying to lose weight everyday, the measurements are a lot more important than the number on the scale. Best of luck with your journey. Drop me a line if you ever need some advice. 🙂

    I used to do measurements but haven’t in a loooong time. Youve inspired me to get back on it!

    I weigh in weekly but I need to measure myself! I’ve hit a plateau lately and I think measurements would be a good thing instead of the scale.

      I think inch loss is more inspiring anyway plus the more inches we lose, the better our clothes fit (or don’t and then we have to buy new ones because our clothes are too big for us lol). The scale can go up and down for many different reasons (salt, water, muscles, etc.) and it doesn’t mean a thing. I have also hit a plateau and just trying to kick things back in gear and give it all a push to start moving again.

      No rush, filling out the BBB check in’s right now. And definitely consistency is the key. Just gotta keep going.

      Thank you! I have done it before but gained quite a bit back and know that with focus and determination, I CAN do this again and stick with it.

      Totally loving round 3 of Best Body Bootcamp. Tina is my online personal trainer and has been for a while. She is awesome.
