Non-Scale Victories!
Sunday, July 20, 2014
So, my darn scale is being a witch. That's okay, I'm steady exercising and losing INCHES! Yes, that's right! 
I've lost a total of 4 1/2 inches since July 3rd!
Go me!
I am learning that after you begin an exercise program, you will likely gain a few pounds due to water retention. Your muscles are storing and burning fat for fuel. After 4 to 6 weeks, there is a breakthrough, and the scale will begin to move downward once again.
I can live with that!
I am so enjoying this... the swimming... the workouts... the sheer joy of being alive and moving.
Why did I wait so darn long?
These are the bracelets on my right wrist. They used to be quite tight. Not anymore!
