    i dont know why people always have this argument but im going to put my 2c in.
    those who say muscle weighs more then fat are correct
    and those that say a pound is a pound are correct but are doing the maths wrong
    if u take a cubic inch of muscle and a cubic inch of fat and weigh them the muscle will weigh more
    and if u take a pound of muscle and a pound of fat and measure them in a container the muscle will take up less room then the fat does
    so stop arguing over it cuz you're all right :)

    Yep!

    When someone says "muscle weighs more than fat" I understand what they mean, and frankly so do others.....I'm sure people know that a lb. = a lb. no matter what the substance, that's pretty common sense stuff.

    I agree with the above, I was eating WAY TOO FEW calories since January and only lost 4 pounds, and have recently set more realistic ones. I have lost inches-that is what I am tying my progress to-not the scale.
