How long does it take for any exercise to have any affect on your body?

I have done loads of exercise this week but haven't seen any difference on the scales this morning to what I normally lose...will it show next week?

Thanks

    It's really going to depend on a lot of factors. What kind of exercise you did, how vigorous it was, if you were in calorie deficit, etc. I normally notice things shifting around within a few weeks of starting a new exercise regimen but I don't look for numbers on the scale to confirm/ deny this.

    You want to see a difference on the scale??? Modify your diet.
    You want to look good naked??? Do exercise (Lift Weights, Body Weight, etc).
