    Strange

    OK - The scale hasn't moved at all. When I first started Adkins (2 months ago) I could barely fit in my size 12 jeans. This morning I was rushing and I was going through my summer clothing and at work I noticed that the pants I was wearing were a size 6 and they fit just right. I couldn't believe it. I don't understand how I'm losing inches but the scale isn't working?

    OK - I did weigh in tonight and I admit I've been drinking alot of water today.

    What's going on?

    Re: Strange

    First congratulations on fitting into your size 6 jeans! Must feel so great! I have heard of losing inches and not pounds all the time on this board. If you are exercising a lot you could be adding muscle weight while losing fat and it wouldn't show up as a major loss on the scale. Did you take measurements when you first started?
    Your scale could be broken? I have two digital ones and they are 15lb apart and both brand new......

      Patti, thanks for the reply. OK so I did lose one pound. My weight lose has been slow. I did lose 2 inches from my thighs, and one inch from my waste. I just wished I would have lost more after two months. I work out 5 times a week and I don't cheat. However I do drink lots of coffee and I know that's making me stall. I'm trying to go to decaf. I'll start the decaf on Monday.

          Thanks Sally, it really got me excited, so today at the gym I did 45 min on the elipitcal and I actually took a 1 hour pilates calls as well. Got start working on those abs. You would think by now I would be so tired, however I have so much energy. Got myself a manicure, pedicure, new purse and of course a dress and oh yea - I also went to they gym. I'm meeting a friend out tonight and I gotta look hot.
