WTF... no loss for a couple weeks on the scale

but clothes are looser. Am I weighting myself wrong or what... The scale hasn't budge, but I do measure myself... legs and neck are thinner. No changed on the belly or hips but my size 14s are to the point where if someone tugs just right... yah I be giving peeps a show. Is there another way to determine if you are losing weight.... that I am not aware of?

Trust me I am happy my clothes seems looser... just weird no scale movage...

    Another way besides looser clothes and smaller measurements?

    Not that I can think of. Don't stress about the scale, but rather delight in the fact you're clearly making progress.

    Don't stress the scale, weight fluctuation is normal. If you have recently added exercise to your daily regemin it is entirely possible that you are retaining water and/or maintaining muscle mass. If you maintain muscle mass the scale will drop slower as your body loses mainly fat, but you'll notice the change in lost inches.

    Break up with scale, get more intimate with measuring tape, mirror, and pictures.
  • Yah added weight training plus when I do cardio its the treadmill on a steep incline... so I have been noticing the outlines of blood vessels showing on my legs more and more muscle definition... just no scale change lol I guess I am so used to it the old school way, you know you are loosing weight when the scale goes down.
