Running..I think my waste is getting bigger. HELP!

ImaFitMormon

I've lost a bunch of weight in the last 1.5 years and I've been able to trim down my whole physique. Now, I'm training for a triathlon and upped my running and I swear my waste is getting bigger. Anyone else have this problem?

Your WAIST or your WASTE? ......just curious! LOL

DavPul

That's disgusting! Oh, you mean your waist? It's probably that your hips, thighs and torso are getting slimmer, and it's just how your waist looks in proportion. What does your tape measure say? Wait, you are using a tape measure, right?

Totally normal, since I started running, I eat twice the calories, and my waste is twice the size.... :blushing: Sorry. Couldn't help myself.

All silliness aside, I bet the other guy is right in that your hips/chest are probably just getting smaller, so it LOOKS like your waist is bigger. That, and if the other parts of you shrink, you will have a lower waist to hip ratio. If you are losing inches in the wrong paces, and are happy with your weight (before), maybe eat more to maintain the measurements you had before? Or work out the muscles near your hips to push em out more? lol... your waist probably hasn't actually gotten bigger, but the best way to know is to measure.

I bet the running has kinda slimmed you down overall, but not in the waist area so it looks like you have a less defined waist now. makes sense?

LOL...OP, you are a beautiful person, and I hope you can laugh along with the rest of us...we really do mean well.

Is your waste getting longer, like it spans the bowl, or is the volume of waste just larger and it fills the whole bowl?

I don't believe she asked for a Beta Reader... show some grace.


My waist has gotten smaller but I also delivered 8 pound twins and had a great deal of extra, could you be building a 'broader' muscle area underneath a layer of fat? If this is the case don't despair and remember you didn't gain it over night and losing it the correct way is a long process too. Best to you.
