Weight Loss Progress

With diet and exercise, I've managed to lose some weight. I've really struggled with my weight for a long time, but it's finally becoming a lifestyle and not a diet for me. I am eating healthy and exercising everyday. It feels good to see results, but I am not even close to where I need to be. Its going to be a long road....

At week 4 I started measuring inches (I wish I'd done that from the beginning). From now on I will also include my inches in my weekly progress!

Week 1 - 6.8 lbs lost
Week 2 - 3.1 lbs lost
Week 3 - 0.4 lbs gained
Week 4 - 1.5 lbs lost

Week 6 - 0.2 lbs gained         3.75 inches lost
Week 7 - 2.6 lbs lost              5.75 inches lost
Week 8 - 3.7 lbs lost              5.00 inches lost
Week 9 - 2.4 lbs lost              0.00 inches lost (wierd...maybe cause I didn't exercise at all)
Week 10 - 0.9 lbs gained
Week 11 - did not weigh in
Week 12 - 5.1 lbs lost           7.25 inches lost
Week 13 - did not weigh in
Week 14 - did not weigh in    8.25 inches lost
