fat and muscle

[☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721]

^{this is 5 pounds of muscle and 5 pounds of fat......}

^{in the picture,, the 5 lbs. of fat is much bulkier than the 5 lbs. of muscle, but five pounds is still five pounds. Muscle does not weigh more than fat. Fat is bulky and lumpy so if you carry an extra five pounds of fat, you'll be lumpier than with five pounds more muscle. A five pound pile of fat will take up more space (volume) than a five pound pile of muscle; but five pounds is still five pounds.}

^{**i got this info on line from weight watcers.com, prevention magazine, my persnal trainer link and many others}

^{INCHES you lose, means you are losing fat/actual weight}

^{regardless of what the scale says or does not say....sure id love to be at goal right now}

^{but the scale is not moving as fast as id like, but i am losing inches....i will take it}

^{so should you}
