Weight the same but exercise made a difference - Pics

I've been exercising a lot lately - just walking - and joined a gym a couple of weeks ago to increase the intensity of my workouts. I noticed I lost a dress size with all the walking but my number on the scale is the same. I posted a photo of me in this dress a month ago to show my progress since I started last year, but now I think I look different in the same dress, just from exercise.

It shows even if you're not losing weight on the scale you could still be getting smaller in your clothes. The difference isn't huge but it's enough to show me all the hard work is worth it :)

    You should measure yourself and you will see the inchs drop off quicker then the scale
