Weird but exciting little bit of progress

I recently started here and doing a bootcamp workout 4 days per week at my local park. I am loving it, though the scale doesn't seem to be cooperating, I'm only down about 2.5 pounds. But here's the exciting part, there is a little fat roll just below my breasts, been there for awhile now, more noticeable if I slouch for awhile. Today I noticed that it's harder to grab said roll between my fingers. Yay!!!

    that is great I think you are probably loosing inches and not pounds the scale will get a person very discouraged but keep it up because you will see changes.

    Progress!
    I often check to see if my fat rolls are deflating.
    I'm pleased to say that they are.
    Have you notice any difference in how your tops fit?

    The scale rarely tells you the true story. NSVs matter!! Good work.

    The two weird bits I check on are my ankles, and the little bit of fat just below my knee, on the inside of my upper calf. And it's great when you notice a change in them :)
