sigh. I started my journey at 244 after having my daughter. Got down to 193.7 May 24th. I've been between 194 and 197 ever since. Measured myself this morning and I've lost 3.25" overall. So frustrating when the scale is up, but inches are coming off. Don't know why, but the number means more to me. Especially since that 160 number seems so far away.

    Inches are what matters to me...means you're building muscle which weighs more than fat

    Exactly right. You are building muscle which in the long run will help burn more calories.

    Also means you're eating too much. You've reached maintenance again.
