    Don't give up !!! Slow and steady wins the race?? Are your clothes fitting better?? Sometimes scale does not reflect change in muscle building?

    It's hard to tell with clothes. I have the hardest time with my jeans. The ones I wear daily for work, seem a little looser. I put a pair on yesterday that I hadn't worn for a couple months, fit same as always. I can only hope, all the walking is truly helping and that it's just showing on the scale.
