bigger measurements

mdorisi

So I've been on "the right track" for a month now. I've been working out and trying to eat right which is of course hard some days, but I have completely stopped drinking pop and have significantly cut back on my sugar intake. I was never really a salt person so I know that's not an issue. My issue is this: After a month, my measurements have gone up. I am doing weights and have gone down a total of 8 lbs (my weigh in days are fridays so my tracker won't be updated until tomorrow) But my measurements on my arms and thighs and bust went up. I did lose an inch in my belly and my neck, but I feel like it just migrated to my other limbs! So I was just wondering if anybody else has had this issue. I just never thought the measurements would go up since I'm already pretty large, I thought any movement would help me SLIM down. I'm not opposed to getting buff but it just seems odd. Help?

muscles weigh more then fat. You're doing great! Keep doing what you're doing and in know time you'll see major changes. Gook luck.

I've lost nine pounds and my bust measurement has INCREASED a half inch! I refused to put that down, though...figured it was operator error with the tape measure...
