    Something is happening, so just keep punching and don't stress out over it.
    You may be losing it in places you don't measure.
    Water weight?
    Who knows?

    It takes time, so be glad that something is going right, and just stay on track.
    It's a long, hard road.

    15 pounds isn't that much- especially if you have a lot to lose. It takes time for your weight loss to become noticeable.

    did you take measurements? it might help for you to do those periodically...you just don't see it because you look at yourself everyday! keep working and it will pay off!

    I'm the opposite, clothes fitting differently and I can see a difference, but the scale hasn't really changed all that much. Probably not as frustrating though.

    What kind of exercising are you doing? Over how long did you lose the weight?

    Photos are the best way to see.
    I know when I started losing weight, the places I measured didn't change but other places did. You could see a difference in my face, neck, and arms. I lost weight between my waist and hips without losing much on my hips and waist, hard to explain but you can see it in the photos.

    Hang in there. Start taking progress photos. You will see a difference eventually.
