Waist measurments

if you exercise you might see your waist measurements come down more than you would think from how much weight you are losing. as you are building muscle, it's more dense. so it takes up less space, making your waist smaller and more defined, but weighs more, so your numbers might not go down.

and i agree, its not about the numbers on the scale, it's about how you look! no one other than you sees the number everyday. but everyone sees what you actually look like.

Hi!!!

Try not to listen to the scale, it can sometimes hinder your progress and do more harm than help. Try to focus on how your clothes are fitting you, and definitely try and take measurements on occasion ((neck, bust, waist, hips, thighs)). Don't forget that some areas are specifically harder to lose than others, but most of all don't give up!

After all the weight loss programs and diets I've been on this site has been the most helpful and organized way for me to track my input and output. Just stick to it and stay focused to your goal. There are days that can be rather challenging, but its all worth it in the end!!!

Good luck!!!

You need to see the complete picture, so do you weigh-in every week, and take measurements at least every month. If your weight isn't budging and you've been faithful to your regime, you may see a progression to smaller numbers on the tape. But if neither budges in a month, you need to change something to move you off that mark. A change-up in exercise plan might do it, &/or check calories consumed.
