Thanks everyone for your kind words and advice.

I'm feeling reassured now. I was starting to wonder if my scales were broken and questioning everything. I couldn't see how my tops were baggier but my stomach remain the same.

Also many of us lose from our hands and wrists - I had to have my watch straps and rings made smaller - so you might be shrinking there too as well as maybe losing some of those fatty deposits around your internal organs

You are doing a great job - keep up the good work

I have never thought about my internal fat before. I guess visually I've only concentrated on the outer appearance and pushed what damage I was doing to myself inside to the back of mind. It all makes sense now.

I'm going to take proper measurements in the morning of all my bits instead of fixating on my tum tum.

Good luck all with their weight loss, your support is very much appreciated.
