The numbers

So as I said there is no point in hiding anything so I am here to officially unveil my numbers ... Most women would cringe at the thought of this but like I said before, what is the difference.  There are a few ways it could go, one is the people may be surprised because they assumed I was bigger/smaller than my actual size the other is it could inspire others to be comfortable in their own skin.  I don't let my size dictate what I do or wear, I think your attitude is what really matters.  I want my followers to know, it has nothing to do with appearance, it is about health!! I want to spend many years with all of you on this amazing planet and the only way to do that is to reclaim my health!

I would like to note that I restarted my quest on January 1st, my first blog unveiled my weigh in at 271.4 pounds.  I may have included already that I lost 5 pounds in the first weigh in so my starting weight on January 1st was 276!! 

I want to explain the sections I am measuring so anyone who wants to follow along would know exactly where I am taking the measurements from.  My bust would be the fullest part, right along where the nipples would be.  The Chest is the area where the band of a bra would go.  The Waist is the narrowest part of my midsection, about an inch or so above my belly button.  My hips would be the widest part, I would like to note that heels should be together when taking this measurement.  Thighs measurements are the space where your bum meets your leg (most likely your thickest part of your thigh)  The calf is also the thickest part, probably a few inches below your knee.  My arm measurement is based on the upper arm at the thickest section, for me that is just below my armpit.  Finally the forearm measurement is once again the thickest section, an inch or so below your elbow.
