I've just finished day 10 of the 30 day shred, and I took my measurements:
I've lost 6lbs, 1.75 inches from the smallest part of my waist and a total of 3.25inches al together.
BUT:
I've gained 1 inch around my belly. What's happening?!

I've been feeling pretty bloated but what could be happening?

    I think bloating is correct. It's water weight, air, or food in your system, as there is no reasonably way you would have 'moved' the inches from your waist to your stomach.

    Do the measurements once a month. Daily changes are not important. :)

    How can you be sure your stomach muscles are flexed or relaxed exactly the same as the last time you measured your waist?

    I was just saying the other day that waist measurements are a lottery.

    I only just bothered to log a new measurement after 75 days on MFP, when I could actually be sure there was a difference.

    Don't be too hard on yourself, and good luck!
