I am so confused. How can it be that I have dropped pounds and not inches? Is this possible?

    You've lost weight, but haven't changed your body composition.

    Completely possibly. You're just losing from places you don't measure. I haven't lost a single inch.

    I'm sure everyone is different but I find the weeks I plateau on the weight front are the weeks my body composition changes, and people comment on the fact that I look smaller. To be honest it's a great boost on a week you don't loose! It took my first 30lbs before I started to notice a real difference in my body shape (in places I was measuring, I lost in places I didn't measure first) so keep up the good work!

    Thank for all your great replies and support. I have lost 8.5 lbs and I feel better already.
