MARCH 13 - WEEK 104 RESULTS

I take my neck, waist and hip measurements each day.

I tracked my food five days this past week, from the start of The 6-Week Cure, and the other days I ate pretty much Atkins.

Today is my weekly measuring day. In the past 7 days:

I lost 0.125" around my neck
I lost 0.25" around my bust
I lost 0.125" around my midriff

I lost 0.625" around my waist
I lost 0.375" around my navel
I lost 0.5" around my thigh
I lost 0.125" around my calf
