I've lost almost a stone but seemingly no inches?

Hello

I've lost 1lb shy of a stone in the past 7-8 weeks, and today I measured my waist and hips for the first time since and they have remained at:

36 inches
and
47 inches

I find this hard to believe as I do feel smaller in the waist area.

I don't think I am bloated.

Is this normal?

    you may have lost it from your back, thighs, arms, breasts, none of which you measured ?

    This is strange, in the last 3 weeks I have lost around about 5.5" from my bust, waist and hips but no weight. If we got together we would be the best dieter there is.

    Good work with loosing a stone though, I'm sure it shows and soon the inches will drop off.

    Not just yet a stone but thanks anyway!

    Oh gosh that is loads of inches. I haven't lost any from my thighs, I can see that from looking! My bf said he can see Ive lost loads from my waist but how come the tape measure doesnt agree! He isnt the type to lie to make me feel better. And as I said before, I can actually that I have cos my back fat has gotten smaller.
