Weights and Measurements...

Well, when I stepped on the scale this AM, it showed me at 401.6 lbs, which means I am losing!  So far I have lost about 8 lbs, which is awesome!  My BMI is 71 which is WAY over the healthy range for a woman my age and height, however with continued healthy eating and exercising, it should go down.  However my measurements are going up and down since the first time, and they are all over the board!!  Here's what they are currently (just did them) and prior measurements (9/18 being the start):

                            9/18                     9/27                  10/23                  +/-
         
  Neck:                     16 1/2"                      16                           16                  -1/2"  
Upper Arm                 24"                       23                               23 3/4           -1/4"
Forearm                    13"                       13 1/4                       13                  -1/4"
   Wrist                      7 1/4"                        7 3/8"                   7 1/2"           +1/4"
    Chest                       63 3/4"                 64                          62 1/2            -1 1/2"
Cup Size                      DD                             DD                        DD                  ----
Waist                    58 3/8"                      57 3/4"                58 1/2"           +1/8"
Hips                      72 1/2"                       71 1/2"                71 1/4"           -1 1/4"
Thigh                    36 1/8"                        34 3/8                  36                  -1/8
Calf                       23 1/2                             24                       22                   -2"
Ankle                    11 1/2"                          11 3/8                 11                   -1/2"


Ok, so I can't get the whole centering thing down, but you get the rough idea!!

The +/- I show is overall, from start to current, so it takes into consideration any plusses and minuses along the way.  I lost a total of 4.375" and gained .375", which means I lost a total of 4", overall.  Wow, when I think of it that way, I feel much better than seeing that I gained 1/8" on my waist, for example!
