Scales are moving but clothes are still tight...

...this is day 4 of Induction, and I've dropped about 2 pounds. I think I look a tad bit smaller around the midsection, and so does my husband. However, everything I'm wearing is still tight.

How is it possible for him and me to see a visual reduction, yet my clothes are still just as snug as they were pre-Induction? Am I expecting too much at this early stage?

I'm probably the worst example, but I didn't drop any clothing sizes until I lost about 30 pounds. And no one noticed I lost any weight until I had dropped about 45-50 pounds. Then I went through a period when I didn't lose any scale weight, but shrunk about 3 dress sizes in 6 months.

So don't worry right now. Your body is busy adjusting and re-adjusting to the changes you have made.
