I would say your working out and building muscle. We all know muscle weighs more then fat. Take notice of how you feel and look. Sounds like your doing a good job ????

Water weight will fluctuate. If you're following your plan it definitely isn't fat.

A lb of fat and a lb of muscle weigh the same.. It's just a lb of muscle takes up less room. :)

I've got clothes I saved at different sizes. I've been all over the place in the past 4 years. So I'm so thrilled to be getting into things I saved. It's like they are new again. ???? I had thyroid removed 2 years ago. So now I'm stable. So as I lose I feel so happy.

I am a slow loser they say i have a decreased T3 i am 5 mos out and lost 44 lbs. i have to go to gym treadmil and bike 5x a week and strength training 3x a week. It is what it us andvthey cant give me anything for it so i have to work extra hard to lose and keep it off but now that i have regained my mobility now that i can tie my shoes cross my legs i will work as long as i have to and for thevrest of my life. Oh i live on sugar free ice pops to get the water in also.

T3 is a slow metabolism.

Water retention - you need to be sure you're getting enough Protein and non caloric drinks. If you're not eating enough - you will not lose weight and your body holds on to everything.

What does your NUT suggest? You MAY not be eating enough to support your exercise level. You also may want to increase your protein.
