How do you classify Turtles? By poundage loss? By inches loss??

I have not had any movement in my weight since last year. I have remained in the 160's for at least 5 months. However, I have started measuring every month and I have seen a progressive loss every month from 1/4 in to 2 in in various areas.

So if I am slowly losing inches then I am not a turtle but if I look at my weight my turtle has turned to stone.

Any ideas??

With regards to my measurements, I remember Rachel told me once that my body is reshaping. So I am praying for a flat stomach and long legs. :P
