As you build more muscle, you'll start to burn fat easier and the weight should drop again.<BR/>Hang in there, I wish I was as diligent as you.Narellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15647259468730860460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264933645170736932.post-19169137763828446022009-03-16T17:54:00.000-06:002009-03-16T17:54:00.000-06:00Hang in there, it will happen.

With every bite of healthy food and with every movement of exercise you are getting healthier! And you said it yourself... your clothes are fitting better - that means you are better fit! As muscle builds and fat reduces, weight won't necessarily change, but those inches disappear! <BR/><BR/>Hurray! You are doing great!<BR/><BR/>BIG HUGS!!Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308423156191499365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264933645170736932.post-25778018873214719782009-03-16T16:43:00.000-06:002009-03-16T16:43:00.000-06:00Isn't it so frustrating when that weight plateau w...Isn't it so frustrating when that weight plateau won't budge!<BR/>but you must be feeling really well and fit, <BR/>How sweet of the girls to make you a surprise..it's the thought that counts..<BR/>hang in there Em..<BR/>Julia ♥Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15207957464039686839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264933645170736932.post-49375451577204211052009-03-16T15:32:00.000-06:002009-03-16T15:32:00.000-06:00Yup!

I think most people do :-) One thing a dietician once shared with me was that most household scales have a spring inside that's part of the working mechanism. Over time it gets stretched, and sometimes "lies" because of that. Then suddenly, when enough of a change has happened in your body, it suddenly is no long stretching to the point that's problematic on it... THe lesson I took from that was when I was sure I'd lost weight, when I absotluely "had to have lost weight" I'd go check out scales at the store, and then ignore any of the weights they gave if they didn't read "right" as "oh its a different floor and stuff, it must be out" :-) hehe the lies we tell ourselves....Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15763869971803840742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264933645170736932.post-7882810868950283752009-03-16T10:50:00.000-06:002009-03-16T10:50:00.000-06:00I think that plateaus are pretty common.
