Plateauland, Inches Lost and a Fill
I have been in plateauland for the last month, down a measley 1 pound for the month of April. But I’ll take it because at least I didn’t gain!
Feeling a bit frustrated (even with everyone’s kind words that it will get better), I decided to take my measurements. WOW! My starting measurements were January 5th, 2010 and 4 months later I have lost a total of 19 inches. I am most proud that my beer belly is down significantly. My pants are also sliding off my butt and I am now into clothes that I haven’t been able to wear for years. Another 10 pounds and I will need a small shopping trip for some summer clothes. I hope everyone took their starting measurements as it gives such a boost. My stats are at the bottom of my blog. And no, this picture isn't of me. I'm not blond.
I had a fill on Monday afternoon and hope this restarts the weight loss. It was a tiny 0.25 cc added which means I am still under 4 cc in a 10 cc band. I have to take it slow as I had problems going up too fast. I was on liquids last night and have had scrambled eggs and toast this morning. So far I haven’t felt a lot of hunger and hope it holds.
Best news is that I have booked the hotel room for Chicago minutes ago. 4 months, 2 weeks, 6 days to go!

Plateus are such a pain the the buttocks. Great idea about taking measurements.
That's great about your measurements. I know the scale is so often the focus but our bodies change in lots of different ways. Hope the fill is helpful!
I know all about that beer belly...As homer says..UMMM Beer....
Great measurements....
Sorry about your plateau. But 19 inches is awesome!! Here's to "Pants on the Ground" & shopping sprees :)
19 inches is amazing!!
I have my fill tomorrow. I currently have 4cc's and was planning on going to 5!!
I can eat a lot more and hungry in between meals!
I wish I tool measurements - I felt pretty hopeless when I started, so I didn't. You are doing so great! Can hardly wait for Chicago.
It is so great to see those measurements go down! You really knocked off some major inches! YAY!!!!
I can't believe what a tiny fill you have. I have 7.4 ccs in a 10 cc band and I have a fill scheduled for next week. I am still not sure whether I need it or not....
Hope your fill does the trick!
19 inches!!! WooHoo!
Measurements are great to remind yourself of how much you've achieved - well done!
"And no, this picture isn't of me. I'm not blond." heehee
19 inches lost is fantastic Sandy. Screw the scale with stats like that!
I am stuck too! I just keep hovering! We will break through it though I believe it!
Wonderful loss of volume!!!
And so glad you booked the room!
Sandy! where did you find that picture of me???? I know...soooo original!!!
Brilliant job on the inches...plateau's suck!
Wow! Way to go. I took my measurments but was so upset by them, I haven't done a comparison yet.
Yeah for 19! Amazing results so far! Congratulations!

The one thing that I want you to know is that I do not join blogs as a follower! Why? Because I am extremely dysfunctional! I do read all of my followers' blogs as often as I can! However, because I don't want to hurt anyone's feeling if I don't join their blogs, I bookmark you so I can peek into your life! ! But, I often don't have time to comment since I read so many of them! Plus, I am a very chatty girl! I would never get to work or get any work done if I did! Please know that I am with you on your journey...even if I am a silent traveler!!
Onward!
