FEBRUARY 20 - WEEK 101 RESULTS

I do not weigh myself on the bathroom scale.  I am taking my waist, neck and hip measurements each day.

I am not tracking my food this month, but I will eat on plan as much as possible.

I gained 0.375" around my waist
I lost 0.125" around my hips
I gained 0.5" around my thigh
I gained 0.25" around my calf
