Is it possible to burn fat without changing my weight?
Is it possible to burn fat without changing my weight?
I have been working a very labor intensive job for about 3 months now and have lost enough inches on my waist to go down two pants sizes yet my total weight when I go on the scale remains around the same. How is it possible that I lost 4 or 5 inches off my waist yet the scale doesn't change? Is it possible what weight in fat I am loosing is made up for with an increase in muscle mass?
You're viewing a single thread.
Scales canna tell the difference between muscle and fat. If you've being labouring, you likely have developed muscle whilst losing fat.
aye laddy
Yes, they can. I have a scale that is able to tell fat and muscle mass apart
Those scales are generally precise, but they aren’t very accurate. Good if you are consistently using them and using the numbers as a reference to progress, but I wouldn’t going around saying the number is a true representation of your body fat.
You either have a full body scanner or you're a liar.
Probably a bio impedance scale, they're very inaccurate though
Correct answer. I got one on sale. I was really disappointed in just how inaccurate their BMI, bio readings were.
It's likely, it wouldn't have picked up much difference in the OP even...
The degree of exactitude of these things is so so, but if you always use yours it can give you a guideline.
