Default Re: question about ketostix and weight loss

Are you checking to see if you are losing inches?
because i didnt lose any weight for a couple weeks but i was dropping inches off,which in my book is the most important thing.
for example a few years ago i started working out pretty vigorously and the first week i lost ten pounds but then i started gaining weight
but as i was gaining weight i was also going down in pants sizes and could see my stomach getting smaller.The reason why is muscle weighs more than fat and is much denser so it takes up less room.
i seen a picture somewhere that showed 5lbs of fat and 5lbs of muscle side by side.it was amazing how big the difference was between the two.
but anyway thats my two cents...
