You are losing fat and gaining muscle, which means you are losing inches. You should have measured yourself before you started. That’s the real way to gauge progress.

are you doing only DDR if so maybe try to add some interval training.
if you want help let me know I’ve been there and I know how to keep it off. lost over 45pounds. and I am on my next goal to enter the wrold of fitness.
stay positive! everyone has bad days.

I was going to say it’s probably muscle… keep working at it. and don’t forget to drink your water, eat your fruits and veggies!

But you’ve already read all that!

Finn Ok so where do I measure? Just the places I want to see improvement? how often do i re-measure? Are you going to hit me with a stick for being annoying?

Finn I have to cut out most snacks because i gravitate towards chips or chocolate, not veggies or fruits. what else qualifies as a healthy snack? I really need to get that food guide thing!

FlipFlop Honestly, I thought you were just being mean to me. I can accept seeing the numbers rising on the scale as long as that means my tummy will eventually lose some of its fat.

Tug Oh trust me I deffinatly eat three meals a day. but snacks and me are bad together!

WebMiz One can hope, eh?

And the snacks/eating helps your metabolism…I’m a terrible eater - once a day or so, & cannot lose weight no matter what. I go visit the parents & kids, eat 3 meals w/ snacks, I lose.

Oh, and the healthy snacking (and that means snacking, not meals) a couple times a day in addition to regular meals (yes, you need to eat regular meals, no skipping!) will ensure you’re getting enough calories to sustain your activity level.

I eat 5-6 times a day; it’s how I went from a size 12 after baby to a size 6. And I’ve been that way for about 7 years.
