Tracy (metta1313)


Name-Tracy
 
Bump Screen Name-metta1313
 
Beginning Weight
pre-pregnancy:  177
current: I was 194 at 6w PP visit (already lost 17lbs), 177 before pregnancy.

Beginning Measurements-
Still need to take...moreso, though I'm trying not to be too much into numbers.  I've dieted so much and when I obsess over numbers, I tend to be unrealistic (being too strict) and then I gain it all back, plus some. 
 
Motivation-I just want to be healthy so that I can teach my little girl to be healthy.  I never had that growing up, which is why I think I have struggled with weight issues my entire life.  I never had anyone pushing me to be active or to eat healthy.  I want to break that cycle with my little Abigail.  I also want to be able to fit back into pre-pregnancy clothes, and possibly my size 8's, when I was my smallest about 5 years ago.  I haven't given up those clothes b/c I am determined to get back into them.  Overall, I don't want to be super skinny.  I just want to be healthy and comfortable in my skin.

How To Take Measurements

Sincle muscle weighs more than fat, you might get discouraged when you don't see your weight change. Taking your measurements can help reassure you that things are happening--even if you're not losing fat exactly where you want just yet. Here's a great description of where/how to measure!

  • Bust: Measure around the chest right at the nipple line, but don't pull the tape too tight.
  • Chest: Measure just under your bust
  • Waist: Measure a half-inch above your belly button or at the smallest part of your waist
  • Hips: Place tape measure around the biggest part of your hips
  • Thighs: Measure around the biggest part of each thigh
  • Calves: Measure around the largest part of each calf
  • Upper arm: Measure around the largest part of each arm above the elbow
  • Forearm: Measure around the largest part of the arm below the elbow.
