HI

Ive been struggling to lose weight for years now. Even with duromine its going very slow.

but yesterday my sister came down for easter bearing gifts :happy:

she bought me a lovely fitted jeans and top SIZE 12 ( Im usually a size 16-14)

and IT FIT BEAUTIFULLY :bigsmile:

How can that be wen i only lost about 5 kg so far ......

so today i went to the shops and got measured (bust size) and have dropped from a size 40DD to 36 D...

maybe be small difference to you but im so happy....

    Just because you haven't lost weight doesn't mean your body isn't changing. Redistribution is very common, and I think is more noticeable than the number on the scale. Good for you!!! Keep it up :)

    People will give you various explanations, but the one that seems to be the most common is that muscle is denser than fat. So, although you have not lost as much weight as you would like, that is because you have more muscle. My fiancee has the same issue. She is working out (zumba, 30DS) and the scales are not moving, but she has lost a dress size and she is looking a hell of a lot slimmer and more toned.

    So... ditch the scales, keep up the good work and enjoy the jeans :)
