I Have Been Training Hard - Why Haven't I Lost Weight?

Home -> Questions & Answers -> Fat Loss Q&A -> No Weight Loss

Question:

Since January 15th, I have been working out regularly, 5-days-a-week...2 days for an hour with a personal trainer and 3 days of cardio for 45 minutes. I'm also eating very healthy. At the start I weighed 232 pounds and today, one month later, I weighed in at 228. This was only a 4 pound difference. Is this normal? I was expecting a lot more weight loss considering all the work I've been doing.



Answer:

Actually, it's not uncommon at all to see very little loss in weight on the scale even as you're reshaping your body. It's most likely a result of a gain in muscle mass as you're losing fat mass! Muscle is more dense than fat, so even though your weight may not be dropping, your body will be getting tighter and your composition will be changing for the better.

Once your body slows down on building muscle (and building muscle is a very good thing...more muscle equals more calories burned!), you'll see a bit faster drop in bodyweight.

Make sure with your healthy eating that you are also eating the proper amount of calories, either more or less, depending on your situation. If you eat too few calories, your body may tend to hold on to extra weight. If you are eating healthy, but still taking in too many calories, it might slow down your weight loss as well.
