Well I'm not losing weight currently. I haven't been as good this week I think. But I did start my exercise back and I'm losing inches. Hopefully I'm just building muscle. This weekend is going to be busy and I'm not sure I'll be able eat as well since I won't be home much. Hopefully I'll see some weight loss next week.0

Check your measurements and the fit of your clothes after doing a muscle-building program, because you will often lose inches even when your weight stays the same.0

I'm convinced that's what's happening to me. I'm losing inches but not really any weight. I hope my body adjusts soon and the weight starts dropping again. Now to get off my butt and go work out. Soooo tired.0

As much as I like to see the numbers on the scale go down, I need to keep in mind that this should be a fat-loss journey. I want to keep all my muscle, and maybe build some more. Losing weight from muscle is counter-productive. The fit of my clothes means more to me than my scale weight. I still really want to do well in the pounds lost challenges, but need to take pride in all those inches (and sizes!) lost. I'm in the best shape I've been in for over a decade, no matter how much further I have to go.
Together, we can do this!0 -
I agree. I love seeing that I look thinner even if the scale doesn't show it. I love that I'm forced to buy new clothes cuz mine are getting too big. I love when my hubby puts his arms around me and gets a surprised happy face cuz he notices I'm smaller than the last time he did that. I love that some of my favorite shirts finally fit properly and some older ones are now too big. I can't wait to see the more final product once I've gotten to where I want to be. It's all about how you feel and look and the scale is a nice bonus. But I still check it every day. I need that motivation to stay on track and not cheat.0

Didn't realize my last post rolled the thread! Hope everyone can find it.
I'm down 2.2 lbs this week. Hope I can keep losing this well!0 -

It is. This is the one that automatically rolled over. The starter of the original post started a new one. Maybe she couldn't find this one? I finally found it and posted there. So I guess we should move there and stop posting here?0 -
Here's the new one.
