Best time to weigh yourself

[trionam]

Ive been on a reduced calorie eating plan for a few weeks now and excercise 45mins 4 and even sometimes 5 times a week, according to the scales I havent lost a single pound,I dont have much weight to loose maybe about 5-6lbs would be great I can see a slight improvement in my shape but no weight loss,have been weighing myself first thing in the morning once a week.I can be awful when you put in huge effort and scales stays the same.

[ummmm]

You'd be better off taking your measurements once a week. Muscle weighs more than fat.

Why worry what the scales say when you can see an improvement?x

The best time to weigh yourself is when you have lost a few pounds, or am I just stating the blooming obvious, good luck with your diet :-)

If youve only 5-6 lbs I wouldnt worry too much. Just eat more healthily than you normally do for a few days and see if it makes a diference. IMO calorie counting doesnt work. I dont count any calories, just careful what I eat.

It is a bit deflating when youve made a real effort and get no praise but please dont give up. You will be so happy when you achieve what you want. It will probably take another 6 months to achieve my goal but Im prepared to do it cos I know how I will feel :>)) xx
