Weigh in today and I've lost 2 lbs! Just thrilled I must say.

Inspired me to walk 4 miles on the treadmill, do a 20 min bowflex upper body workout and about 20 mins of stretching. Hope the rest of the week goes well -- for everyone!

You are an inspiration too. Keep it up.

You've gotten started, and to me, that's what counts. Well, that and keepin'on.
Even if you had NO weight loss, you are doing a great thing for yourself! Yeah for the new us!!!!

Welcome to Sparkpeople, think of that pound as a pound of butter off of your body...

That is a lot, when you look at a pound of butter.

Use your measuring tape, along with your scale. Drink that water.

My first weigh in and I've lost a pound. ONE POUND??? Geesh. I know, I know...everyone is different, muscle weighs more than fat, might take a couple+ weeks to kick in. Oh, but it is harder over 50 isn't it?!?!

I am SO glad I measured myself because I can also say I've lost 4.5 inches. 1.25 from hips alone and that is great!

Keep going everyone (me too!)
