I tossed my scale today,because Iam tired of living by a number and weighing success by a number. I have worked too hard these past few weeks to let the scale defeat me..

My last weigh in showed me that my weight hadnt change,but I know darn well my body has changed.Inches lost is far more important to me than a weight.And I know from past experience that weight lifting burns fat and replaces it with lean muscle .

I took my measurements today,and to date,5 weeks(2 on my own,3 on the program) later here are the results so far.The proof is in the measuring tape and not the scale...

BEFORE
Waist-35
Hips 41
Thigh-23
Calf-13
Arm-13

NOW
Waist-32
Hips-39
Thigh-21
Calf-12
Arm-12
