Your weight may stay the same, even as you lose inches, a sign that you’re moving in the right direction. Knowing the difference between losing weight and losing body fat can change how you see yourself and your progress.When you notice that you’re losing inches, but not weight, this strongly suggests that your body is going through a recomposition.
You are losing fat, which takes up a lot of space, and are left with a greater proportion of fat-free mass (e.g. muscle), which takes up less space.If your fat cells shrink, and the area is not filled with lean muscle, you’re more likely to lose inches on the tape measure. However, your fat-to-lean tissue ratio could be worse than before your weight loss, you’re more likely to suffer saggy skin and you’ll have less stamina.
Exercise Type and Form.Losing inches but not weight should not be a cause of despair. It most likely means that you are losing fat and increasing muscle mass, which is a positive step forward.
Your overall goal should be to reduce body fat percentage rather than just ‘losing weight’. Is feta cheese good or bad for you?Comparing your loss of weight to your loss of size or inches is not possible to be equalized.
If you are to keep an exercise or diet program you might be “losing weight but not inches,” or even the opposite way, losing inches and not weight. If you keep living a healthy way of life, it is completely possible for you to lose weight.You may lose inches without losing weight.
That doesn’t mean you’re not becoming healthier. The point of losing weight is to lose body fat. By exercising, you are likely replacing that fat with muscle. Fat takes up more space than muscle.
So even if.Even though you’re not seeing the number on the scale change, losing inches and fat is good for your health. People with a higher body fat percentage are at a greater risk of a number of health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, issues with sleep, certain types of cancer and an overall lower quality of life.You are asking how come you have lost 5 inches from your waist yet only 10 lbs in weight.
Well, 10 lbs is quite a bit (I know its not the massive losses some see) and more importantly it seems you are losing visceral fat (around the organs) hence the loss of inches.If you’re clearly losing inches around your waist and not losing weight, then you’re gaining lean body weight at the same time (like muscles). That’s a good thing. Not sure if you really need to lose any pounds (you don’t mention weight or height) but perhaps just keep doing what you’re doing?So, yes, losing inches is preferable to losing weight.
True, seeing a decrease in body weight on the scale can be a great source of motivation. It can be a sign that your journey to fitness and workout plans are effective; nevertheless, physical fitness shouldn’t be.Losing inches but not weight is still fat loss If you’re losing inches and getting healthier on a low carb diet, throw your scale in the trash – it’s a liar. At least put it up somewhere that’s really, REALLY inconvenient to get to so that you won’t be tempted to ask it’s opinion every single day of your life.
Therefore, if your goal is to lose fat like 99.9% of people who need to lose weight, inches are way better reflection of your result. And in fact, if you’ve been losing a lot of pounds but not the comparable amount of inches, you may need to rethink about your approach.So, you’ve been in the gym. Sweating away in a cardio class or spending time on the treadmill is excellent.
Maybe you’ve lost some pounds, but now you’ve seen a plateau in loss, and you’re losing inches not weight. Worse yet, you might have seen an increase! I’m here to tell you, don’t worry.“I’m eating a lot of the zero-point foods and I never go over my daily smart point limit, so why am I not losing weight?” And therein lies the problem. Not only are you eating ALL your allotted smart points, but you are eating your fill of zero-point foods.
In short, this means you.Yes thats it. You will be eating much less than 20 grams of carbs during these days and you should see some weight loss. BUT gradually start to eat more carbs. You don’t want to stop losing weight or worse, put back on weight!
Count calories. Traditionally you shouldn’t have to count calories.
