Is it possible to lose weight scale without losing inches from your waist?
I've lost 4 pounds but my waist has not lost a few inches. Any ideas? Thanks!

- you're most likely already very skinny
- i know there are specific exercises you can do to target certain areas, like pilates. you might want to give that a try while you keep on your diet or seek advice from a trainer from a gym.
- yes, it is possible. always remember that it is not just our waist that has fat. almost all parts of our body has fat, that's why when we lose weight, it means that we lose from all over other body parts (not just from the waist).
- You probably just lost some water weight. If you're a skinny person, every pound shows, but if you're on the larger side, 4 pounds are not going to make much difference.
- it's because of the following two reasons: 1) you loose weight from top to bottom - that's the reason why most people who are on a diet look skinny on their face but still have a huge butt ;) 2) your body reduces muscle mass first and then fat - be careful not to get into the habit of doing diets all the time, you might gain even more weight (so-called yo-yo-effect) try not loosing weight through a diet, but change your nutrition and do more workouts - only this works for a lifetime; the rest, meaning hollywood diets or 0-calories-drinks instead of meals, is only for this summer's bikini shape (once you stop with the diet, you gain weight very fast and end up having the shape of a snowman for christmas) have fun in life - eat healthy food and move your body more...
- Hello to you. When you loose weight it comes off evenly over the whole body. Usually the waist and hips store more fat than any other part of the body. You must ask yourself why you need to loose weight.It sounds to me as if you need to tone up and eat a little better. take alook at http://fit-n-fat.blogspot.com this guy knows what he is talking about regarding weight loss and diet.He's fun too.Take care
- check your body girth proportion and see which part of your body is out of shape and exercise that part.
