Measurements
OK, for those of you who don't have enough to do. Today was my goal day. I figured about 20 weeks ago that I should have a target. I fell short, but I'm not too hurt by that, because it was my first experience at this. So instead of 20lbs lost in 20 weeks, I lost 15, and I came pretty close on the waist. I had thought I'd get to 37 1/4" by today and I got to 37 7/8". Guess the other 5 pounds might have helped with that.
So here goes The first measurements are 2/15/05 and the second are 7/1/05
Waist 43" - 37 7/8"
R Calf 15" - 14 3/8"
L Calf 15" - 14 1/2"
R Thigh 21" - 21 1/8"
L Thigh 22" - 21 5/8"
Hips 41 1/2" - 39 1/2"
Chest 43 1/2" - 41 7/8"
R Arm 14 1/2" - 14"
L Arm 14" - 14 1/8"
R Forearm 11 1/2" - 11 1/2"
L Forearm 11 1/4" - 11 1/2"
Forgot these when I felt fatter
R Bicep 14 5/8"
L Bicep 14 1/2"
Don't know what the accuracy is like and this doesn't paint the whole picture. There are measurements I took in between and I'll share a couple of those then I'm out for a good weekend.
For example my left arm was 14" on 2/15 then on 6/10 it was 13 1/8", then today was 14 1/8". So I'm hoping that what happened is I lost some fat, and now I'm building some muscle and still losing some fat. Hopefully!!!
Another example is my right calf, I'm just pulling these out - started at 15" then on 4/20 was 14 3/8", then on 6/10 was 14 1/4" and finally today is 14 3/8". The legs were measured while I was doing the leg only workouts due to carpal tunnel. I didn't measure upper body then.
Anyway, hope that's inspiring to somebody out there! I'm feeling good about it.
Keep Lifting!!!
