12WBT - Week Four

This week was our monthly check in to see how not only our weight is progressing, but also our measurements and fitness levels. As it was our second wedding anniversary on Tuesday, I was by no means expecting any positive results in any department on Wednesday. As such, it still hurt to see that I had put on 800grams.

However... I was astonished and impressed by my new measurements!!

Area                   Pre-WBT             Now (Wk4)

Chest                    102cm                   93cm

Waist                      81cm                   80cm

Hips                      107cm                  103cm

Right Thigh            70cm                    69cm

Left Thigh               71cm                    68cm

Right Arm               33cm                    32cm

Left Arm                 33cm                    32cm

After hearing my measurements, I felt like I looked like this!

 I also managed to double the amount of push ups I did in 1 minute to 28 from the knees (I know this isn't great, but I am super impressed with myself!). My wall sit doubled too, from 33secs to just over a minute. However, I did notice that I lost a little bit of my flexibility, so I think it's back to what I like to call "London Bridge Push Ups"

"London Bridge" I do push ups from this position to increase my flexibility

 I am fitting back into some of my old "skinny" clothes already, which I am absolutely thrilled to pieces about. Obviously, there is still room for improvement BUT now that I have seen my weight not change too much, but my measurements have.. I'm going to stop getting so stressed about those numbers and concentrate on trying to look more like these two fantastically fit women!!

Lots of Love,
Chantal
