Multiple measures are good. I got out the tape measure to take waist, hip, and thigh measurements every couple of weeks. I just ordered some inexpensive fat calipers, too, to get an estimate of body fat percentage. Since I have been weight training at the gym, I am adding muscle mass -- and bone mass, I hope -- which are more dense tissue than fat. Between those and just looking at how my clothes fit and annual blood tests with my checkups I may get a fuller picture as I try to shave off surplus fat and improve my overall health. Just some things to think about. 

Awesome! that's what I do too, except the blood work.  

We're all very 'weight centric'. I tend to fluctuate inside of about a 5 pound range over a week. It's something you will eventually come to terms with. Hang in there. 

Thanks everyone for your comments, really appreciate all of your insight! I measured myself Friday and I am noticing my clothes are slipping on instead of me pulling them on at the waist, so soething is happening... I also started lifting some light weights two times a week so I know I'm putting on muscle. I'm just too impatient!! When I was younger it was sooooo easy to lose! Guess I have to face up to the reality of my age. : ( Great idea on the calipers Karenbledsoe ! I just bought a glucometer and the strips etc that go with it and I have a feeling it's going to be the expensive route. I don't even know yet what numbers are good to see if your in ketosis... I have a lot to learn!! Northernmusician, thanks that is something I need to consider as well! I think a monthly weigh in may be good! Thanks again everyone!
