No scale change-- but I think I see a difference (pics)

I think I see some differences, and if that's the case than the scale is a big fat liar. I guess just keep plugging along--

Ht-5'9"
Wt-190lbs

    I do see more definition in your mid section and your left arm seems somewhat slimmer/toned down some too =) keep it up, even if the scale isnt changing, that doesn't mean you're not losing inches, etc!

    Yes... there is a difference. Keep up the good work (scales are evil - lol). I know how you feel. I just compared pics of myself yesterday (tho I didnt post them cause I dont know how) and I think I can see a difference too.

    You might want to try a tape measure and get waist, hips, arms, etc.

    That's the frustration of just relying on the scale! I hit a 6 week plateau as far as numbers, but in that 6 weeks, I dropped 2 shirt sizes, 1 bra size and 1 pants size...

    Your gaining lean muscle at the same rate as your losing fat :smile:

    Bust out the measuring tape and track your measurements! I guarantee you'll see a difference there even if the scale doesn't want to work with you! I totally see a difference!

    Definitely focus on measurements and clothing instead of the scale.

    Well this may sound bad, but I didn't look at the dates at the bottom at first and I didn't realize that your before and after pictures were reversed. I was thinking to myself, "hmmm... she actually looks thinner and more toned in her before picture" (the one taken 6/29/11). Then I realized that I was actually looking at your after picture... so long story short, yes, I defiantly see a difference. Keep it up, and ignore the lying scale!

    Yup there is a difference!...Don't let the scale get you down. Get the tape measure out...or just notice how your old clothes are fitting. If you your clothes are looser or you have to buy new ones...well then, what you are doing is working!

    Remember muscle is heavier that fat, so even though the scale doesn't reflect it yet, your body is!

    Great job!:happy:
