Can you lose inches w/o losing lbs?
I have been eating 6 small meals per day and doing aerobics and body sculpting with Gilad on Fit TV since Thanksgiving. My weight has gone from 245 down to 240.5 and now back up to 243 but I know that I am losing inches. My clothes are fitting looser. I feel great and will continue to stick to my plan but I don't understand why the scale keeps fluctuating!! I am a 37 year old mother of 2. I just had my 2nd baby 8 mths ago. I know women retain water and we have hormonal stuff to deal with but dang!!! Should I just go by the way my clothes feel or should I be worried about the fluctuating lbs?!

- You are building muscle. You should be happy that you are losing inches. You are doing the right things, keep up the good work. Sometimes people that are looking to get fit focus too much on the scale and not other aspects of their body. It would have been interesting if at the start you would have done a body fat analysis. That would check your fat percentage in your body. I bet that has gone down, which is more important than the number on the scale. Just keep doing what you are doing, you are doing it how everyone should do it, the safe and healthy way. Great job!
