Started bicycling and stopped losing

CrystalT

My husband and I started bicycling about a month or so ago. Since we started cycling, I stopped losing weight. I realize this is because I'm gaining muscle. I've lost 2 inches in my waist over the past 2 weeks and I can tell a big difference in how my legs look. I know gaining muscle is wonderful for me. I realize all the benefits. I should be happy with that, but I'm frustrated with the scale. I feel like I'm a month behind my goal right now.

I was just wondering if anyone had an idea of how long it would be before I should start to see more weight come off.

Try not to focus too much on the scale, your losing inches and thats awesome! The best way to tell is also by how your clothes fit. I think the scale number will start to go down if you just stick to what you are doing... keep up the good work and try and be patient! :happy:
