Hey Trish!! I'm still here. Most of the time I'm lurking seeing what everyone is up to. I've been really busy transferring my pics from my floppys to and external hard-drive. So when I come to the boards it's just for a short break to get away from the pics for a minute or 2.

I love being called a big loser

Day 3!

It's day 3 for me and I feel good! My appetite is not as strong as it has been and I slept like a baby last night. I'm still cold but that is no big deal. With two people in the house doing cla/gla, our suppy is going down quick. I hope my order from Netrition gets here soon!

I like this combo!

hey everyone, i just had to post a comment. i started the cla/gla on sunday, and i told myself not to even think about measuring again until 2 weeks went by. however, i tried on my pair of "oh i wish i could get back into these" shorts today and THEY FIT!! snug but buttoned and zipped. i was totally floored, i have only lost 2 lbs since the last time i tried so i was like "how in the H#(* did that happen." i have already lost 1/2 inch in my waist!!! this is like way to good to be true. i will be back comfortably in those shorts in no time and looking great!! this is amazing, i'm so glad i tried it. but i am not going to measure again.. i made my husband hide the tape measure..LOL he can give it back on feb 6th. i hope the next time i post i have even better results..!!!!!!!

Thanks Trisha and Chevy for your replies concerning my TOM question (back on page 125, I think). I am going to continue taking this combo since it seems to be working for me in all the right ways, I have even convinced my hubby to start taking it next week (need to place an order for the liquid CLA, runnin' outta pills!) even though he doesn't exactly stick to low carb. I'll have to make sure he measures to see if it makes a difference even when not dieting.

As for me, I have noticed a big difference in the way my jeans fit, I can actually BREATHE in them now! I'm going to wait a little longer to measure though-I tend to obsess over the numbers.

As for the being cold thing a few people have mentioned, I have been experiencing that too. Very weird.

Ok, this one is for Abby. Just so you know your dog is not the only weirdo that eats stuff it shouldn't.

Look what i came home to today.

I took measurements today but (as usual) I can't find my priors sooooo I'll have to spend some time back tracking through this thread, which i really don't want to do. But... I do want to know if i have lost inches .

ok, found it

12/15---------1/12---------1/24
140.5 lbs------137 lbs------133 lbs

waist 28"------28"----------27.25"
belly 32.75"---32.5"---------32"
thigh 23.5----23"-----------22"
hips 38"------34.5----------38" I really have a hard time finding the same place each time. lol

So overall a 2 inch loss from the most common problem areas (minus the hips, hehe not counting them this time). Feels good, na na na na na, I knew that is would, nanannanan

I'm glad you found it...I got confused trying to help you look for it, lol
I skimmed through your posts lists and couldn't find your last set of measurements but I did find out other cute things about you while looking...you are a girl of diverse interests, aren't you? posting all over this place...

congrats on your loss sweetie!!!!

well...if you click on a person's name above their avi, one of the options is to see a list of their posts

and you had posts all over the main lobby, the cla/gla threads, the recipe room, the game threads...just skimming through looking for where/when you might have posted your last set of measurements, i inadvertently found out all kinds of things about you...

i was just trying to help you out...not trying to stalk you or anything, promise!

<snif, snort> I want a 27.25 inch waist too!!!!!

That's funny, my thigh and hip measurement are close to yours, but you have that tiny little waist!!!! One of these days I will be able to say, "Hey, Caly.... all of our measurements are really close!!!!"

lo, I didn't start with that waist!! I have problems losing it in my thigh/butt area. The fat just stock piles there and doesn't want to leave.
