The Shred-Week Two Results

I'm incredibly disappointed. What am I doing wrong? I have done the Shred EVERY day. I'm not eating candy, desserts (with the exception of yesterday's cake balls), I'm eating more greens and fruits...Dang. This stings.

Even some of my measurements are up. Argh! But I am going to compare this week's measurements with week one. Because really, that would super suck to see NO progress.

Chest-
Week 1- 43"
Week 3- 42 1/4

Waist
Week 1- 41 1/2"
Week 3- 37"

Thighs-
Week 1- Right-30 1/2" Left-30 1/2"
Week 3- Right-29 3/4" Left-30"

Calves-
Week 1- Right- 18 1/4" Left- 18 1/4"
Week 3- Right 18 1/2" Left 18 1/2"
(well that stinks)

Biceps-
Week 1- Right- 14 1/2" Left- 14 1/4"
Week 3- Right- 14 1/2" Left- 14"
(so 1/4 transferred from the left to the right?)

All together- minus 6 1/4"

Okay, so there was progress from week two to week three. One more inch gone. And I think it was from the waist.
Maybe I'm not measuring correctly? Doing the same spots? Ergh...who knows?
Oh, and to top it all off...I'm up 1.2 lbs from week 2. Or, should my optimistic self say I'm down 1.4 from week one.

**Post Edit**
In what I can only say a bizarre turn of events...I just weighed myself, at 5:20 pm. I'm now back down .2 lbs from week two...for an overall loss of 2.8. How on earth did that happen?


I have no idea why it looks like I'm shrinking...the zoom???
