Losing lbs but no inches..

katesmithy

I've been using MFP for a month and a half and managed to lose 12lbs so far.. I know that doesn't sound a lot but I'm 5'3 and now weigh 149lbs. I can squeeze in to size 10 clothes and comfortably fit in size 12's... So I thought by nearly losing a stone in weight there would have been more of a change?
Ive taken month photos but can see no difference at all. I don't know whether it has something to do with the fact that since I've cut down on cals I'm ALWAYS bloated.
I'm starting to get deflated and confused!
Any ideas?

Are you relying on the photos only or did you actually take all of your measurements before you started your weight loss journey? If you lost 12 lbs. then the weight came off some place. You can track your measurements in MFP by going to My Home>>Check In. You can add or revise body parts or other measures such as BMI or Waist-to-Hip ratio.

I was relying on the photos to be honest.. I think I'll start measuring from now on. Thanks x
