Can't quite figure this out.

[Just-Ice 1]

Ok, so I started at a size 22. I'm wearing a size 16 jeans now. My shirt from a 2XL to an XL. BUT.. the scale hasn't moved in 3 weeks??

I just can't explain it. Everyone keeps asking me "how much have you lost now?".. but none in a while??

I can SEE the difference body wise, but still befuddled.

Loosing inches makes for great NSVs! Are you keeping track of your measurements?

I am actually 2 pounds up from my low due to an unfill because of prolapse.

I see people weekly that swear that I am shrinking before their eyes. They saw me at that low weight and I still got compliments from the same people 2 weeks later and 10 pounds heavier. You are replacing your fat with muscle which weighs more and shows on the scale. A tape measure will work wonders for your ego which we need every once in a while!

Our bodies and these bands are unusual things, let me tell you!

I have been working out like a fiend since January, and monitoring my diet closely (still eat no-no's every once in a while). But I mean like HEAVY workouts! 40mins of extreme cardio, then I do 15-20 mins on the rowing machine, then weights, abs, then swim laps for 20-25mins. I do this religiously 4X a week and have since Jan. 1st. The scale has gone up and down 4lbs both ways, but as of today, I am EXACTLY the same weight as I was January first. For those that plateau for a week or two, consider my sad situation..lol.

I STILL keep doing just what I've been doing because I know my body will eventually "figure it out."

I have not lost significant inches either and have kept track of that since day 1. What I did lose is MAJOR body fat My BMI has gone down by over 4pts since January first!

My clothes fit looser (which I don't understand since no significant inches lost) and I feel STRONG and my body is noticeably more muscular. However, that DAM scale messes with my head daily!!

Bottom line is, this process and our bodies act and react in unusual ways...just keep doing what you're suppose to, and eventually (I say this at 10 weeks waiting) it will give us the visual results we SO desire!!

Congrats on your weight loss!!

Hold tight! I stayed at the same weight for about 2 weeks. Ate right, exercised, and shrunk inches... but the scale didn't move. Then over about 4 days it dropped almost 8 pounds :smile2:
