Changes I'm getting close to be able to fit in jeans!!

I started this journey on Oct 6.  It's been 2 months.  There are many ways you can  measure your success.  I took a weight measurement in the beginning and you weekly see how that's changing.  I have been updating you guys and telling you how I'm doing on exercising and how my endurance and times on the machines change.  There's another way that proves how your doing.  In the beginning I took measurements of my body.  Here's how those have changed over the course of two months:

                        Oct 6                       Dec 6

Chest -          53"                               49 1/2"    (Everyone knew I'd loose it here!!)     
Waist -          57"                               54"
Hips -            59"                               56"
bicep -           15.25"                          14.5"
calf -              18.5"                            18"
thigh              29.25"                           27"

I'm almost able to fit into a pair of jeans.  The size chart says I"m only 2" away from fitting.  The sad part is I didn't even know I couldn't find a pair big enough for me until I tried.  After I had my son and then an injury 8 weeks later never again did I put on a pair of  jeans!!  When I do fit into a pair, I will bring you along via video tape!!  I'm praying it will be by the end of December

  4. Technically its 2x if in jeans I think it would have to be 34 if I could find them. 32's at fashion bug are to small yet!
