    Hi,
    Why do you sometimes lose inches although there is no change in your weight? Any idea?

    Ur building lean muscle while losing pounds.

    1 lb fat = 1 lb muscle.

    So ur losing fat while building muscle hence weight stays same.. but muscle is much denser n requires less space than fat n u see that thru inches lost.. hence be sure that ur losing fat n making muscle which is what u should really aim for..

    Hope this answers..

    In the same boat here. I lost 3.5 inches , still I weigh 64 kgs. It is nice to fit in smaller size dresses, but drop in pounds would be an immediate gratification :) I need to loose 3 more kilos.
    Best wishes to you

    Hi Nitha!
    Congrats on your inch loss! I personally don't mind myself to be in any weight if I have a flat tummy ;)
    All the best for your weight loss journey...
