23 lbs more same pant size?!

karirenae

Ok so I was 164 before I got pregnant, I gained about 40 lbs. I've lost approx 20 and it says I have 23 lbs to go to be at my lowest weight last year.... I've been newly doing cardio and cable machines 3x a week for about 45 minutes that I didn't do last year, and today I tried on a pair I my size 12 pants that fit before pregnancy... They fit! Pretty tight but they fit, so my question is why am I still up 23 lbs from before I was in the same size?! Can you lose inches without weight loss??

Everyone's bodies lose weight differently. I am wearing pants now that are smaller than the ones I wore when I was 20 pounds lighter. I also had to lose 40 pounds before my pant size went down at all from my heaviest weight.
