Really...a lb of muscle weighs 3x as much as a lb of fat? So the lb of muscle actually weighs 48 ounces while the lb of fat weighs 16? Wouldn't that mean that you actually have 3lbs of muscle vs. 1lb of fat...because no matter how you look at it a lb is 16 ounces?
The point is muscle does not weigh more than fat...a lb is a lb is a lb. The difference is that muscle is dense and fat is not, so a lb of muscle is smaller in area mass than the fat.
