I think you can see the best changes in your side shots. Your stomach/waist is getting smaller. You can see how it is shifting as you are losing it in that area. Leigh had explained one time to me that that is why measurements may be deceiving sometimes because your fat shifts as you are losing it. KUTGW

Keep working hard and I agree with Karla.......if you aren't losing any weight and are doing these intense workouts, then you are probably eating at maintanence.
Thanks Stephanie... yeah - 2 hours without water SUCKED! And yeah, I hate to admit that Karla is probably right about maintenance eating (lol!) but I am slowly working on cutting calories a little bit more. I don't want to undereat and kill what's left of my metabolism, so doing it carefully... (plus I get HUNGRY!)

Agreed on improvements in your middle. There's a big difference there.
Thanks

(btw - thanks for the comment. I tend to lurk a lot and post little myself.)
I don't know if it's the suit or not... it's not a great suit either (bottom half of a tankini, but I don't have any other real bikini bottoms cuz I wouldn't be caught DEAD in public wearing them (which is why the only one I have doesn't even fit)!

I agree with everyone about the pics. I think the biggest change is in the midsection. That's how I'm going too. It will all come out of my waist before it comes from anywhere else. We look to have the same sort of body comp, so maybe you're the same way.
Foot is doing better than I thought it would... nice bruise on it though!
It's nice to see other people with similar bodies - SillySally and I look somewhat alike too... I wouldn't mind it coming off my waist / midsection... although arms would be nice (as would thighs... everywhere else)...

I tried on a "cute" white blouse today. The cute sleeves cut off circulation around my upper arms

(Afterthought - Diane - if you read this, the sports-bra I'm wearing in the pics is the Lily of France one from Kohls!)
