Measuring: A Canadian Horror Story

When I first started on this journey all I could focus on was losing weight. I want to be 120lbs again which may be optimistic, since my mother says I have not been small since junior high. Oh well, a girl can dream. The point of this is that weight-loss is a bad goal for me to have. My PTNB tells me that I should focus more on inches. She made me get measured! Can you believe it? I know - I was horrified too. But not as horrified as I will be after this blog is published and you can all see my STATS.

I asked my boyfriend to measure me. Big mistake. He made a game out of whipping my half-naked body with the tape measure and telling me that he doesn't want my boobs to shrink. You and me both pal, but its going to happen.

According to Nelly's song "Ride Wit Me" 36-25-34 is the ideal body type. I wonder what he would think of 37.5-35-40? Luckily I am not trying to impress a rapper with a band-aid fetish. I hope you realize how hard this is for me to share this photo. I am only doing it because in a couple of months they will be drastically different and it will make me feel good to say "I did it"!
Goal reached: got measured and didn't cry at the results
New goal: as per my PTNB I cannot weigh myself until next Friday, goal is to not weigh myself until next friday. :)
