Inches are not dropping! Why?

tmogs

I've been working out religiously 6 days a week (not just being there, but bringing it). I've lost 8lbs since i've been tracking my measurements but i'm not losing inches. I make sure I measure the same places, measuring tape straight (not twisted), measure tape not squeezing my skin (giving false numbers), eating right (not yesterday) but my inches aren't changing.

Anyone knows what's going on here? Or is it just operator error?

Just wait for it. You'll lose them too. You're probably just losing it elsewhere. I'd love to lose it from my belly but noooo... It goes from my arms, which I wouldn't mind staying thick till last.. :grumble:

willing to give a guess!.... Losing weight....you can't decide where your body is going to lose inches 1st, just like you couldn't add the inches either. Your losing weight thats the only thing thats important. As you continue will see the inches go down,congrats on the loss! Might want to go to 5 days intensity & take 6 th day easy! Its a marathon not a sprint to a "Healthy Lifestyle" for the rest of your life..
