The best way to measure success with your weight loss program?

Remember this—Fat Loss Is More Important Than Weight Loss!

Understand that as you build muscle, your weight may even go up a little at first, but your inches may go down (looser fitting clothes are an excellent indication of change).  Your body may be changing but the scale might not show it yet.  Take your circumference measurements (neck, chest, arm, waist, hips, etc) and body fat percentage every month or so to track your progress.   And don’t worry, in time you will lose the weight also (permanently)!

Don’t confuse body composition with body mass index (BMI).  BMI only tells you how fat you are.  Body composition will tell you WHERE YOU ARE FAT!  This is very important because research has shown that abdominal fat is a precursor to illnesses such as cancer.

YOUR BODY COULD BE SHRINKING SO CHECK THOSE INCHES!
