I remembered to do a first of the month update... mostly.  I forgot to actually weigh-in this morning but I did weigh myself Friday morning, and Jason and I just took my measurements.  Remember that the measurement differences posted will be since November of 2008 since I guess I just didn't care in December and in January I couldn't find the measuring tape.

*Per November-February change: I question this data (my four leg measurements).  I have been walking so it is possible that my legs are stronger and tightened, or that I've gained muscle and lost more than 5.5 pounds of fat... but that's a fairly drastic change, with big jumps down on my thighs and a fairly big jump up on my right calf, so I am wondering if we measured at a different place the first time.  I'll stick with these numbers and keep measuring from the middle / thickest part (that's what we did today) so over time it should be ok.
