So this will be my last week of stage 1. I have made improvements on my strength but not so many inches lost and absolutely no weight lost. I've actually gained 1-2lbs. Is this normal? I kinda expected to lose some inches in stage 1.

    I just finished on Saturday, no weight loss and no change in measurements. Some strength gain and definitely some definition (oh hi traps and delts!). I'm thinking stage 2 is where it'll start to really go down

    Also, congrats!

    This is normal with stage 1, you should start seeing inch differences by the end of stage 2 or 3.

    Ok, that makes me feel better! Thanks. I was beginning to get a little worried. I've seen a few women say that they saw differences in inches after stage 1 and I guess I was just hopeful I would be one of them haha. Anyways thanks & congrats to you as well!
