there you go. SCREW THAT SCALE! You know what you've done :) 

bmccrary - honestly i was devastated after everything i'd done!... but the fact that at 179 i was fitting well in my size 10s? there has to be a better explanation..maybe i'll work backwards.. get slimmer as i gain weight?? lol 

hey nothing wrong with that. that recently happened to me too. I was a few pounds heavier after not weighing in for a week, yet my clothes were not tighter and i still looked good. I know Ishould follow my diet a little better, but we are gaining muscle at the same time. I am not weighing myself until my birthday. Anyway, you look great. You're making good moves :) 

Don't sweat it, mayn, if you weigh more but you're fitting clothes better that's SUCCESS. The body's composition wont always accurately be reflected on the scale. Even tho I had bumped up to 184 yesterday, I thought it actally looked pretty good in the mirror. Don't let yourself get psyched out. You're doing just fine :D 

thanks guys.. i was making some really good strides physically... and i didn't let the scale deter me... i'm gonna just keep fighting.. at this point if i lose anything it would be a victory since i'm still the same size i was before at my lower weight..  

If you're seeing gains in physical performance and fitting better into clothes, screw the scale! There's been quite a few times where I've gained some lbs but looked better ;D 

my legs are like the biggest part of my body... and they are lookin big and hard... they aren't as flabby as they were.. so i'm guessing thats where my extra 8 lbs are lol 

Screw the scales; check your measurements. You've been so positive about the changes you see in yourself physically. A number weight means nothing compared to that. xx 

@ sophie man i get so mad that i haven't measured myself.. i wonder if i peruse thru my journals i can find an old set of measurements somewhere.. something for comparision!. 

Looking better with better fitting clothes! That's a win!  

No worries. Rather have the muscles.. You are doing wonderful woman. Just keep going..
