Sooooo happy with the results on this diet. The scales have moved I guess - 14 odd pounds in three weeks is quite good, even though they've slowed a lot at the moment (TOM etc).

But the tape, I love the tape - I've dropped almost 4 inches from my waist in the last 3 weeks - thats almost 12cm I think.

Woo-hoo!

So those who don't already measure, and fixate on the scales - put them away for a while, and use your measuring tape instead. :D

That's great. Those are alot of inches. I've lost 40lbs. and only 4" from my waist. I don't exercise so I'm not suprised if my tape doesn't show much loss, but I know eventually it will. I'm doing what I can diet wise to stay in control and so far it's been working. I mean I do a little strength training, but not too much cardio.

My tape has been a lifesaver! I have not lost anything at all on my evil :devil: scale in over 2 weeks, but i have lost a total of 14.5 inches, so i am assured that this is working for me :lol:
