Nat is right. But what I meant was that you may appear to have the same volume, but if it is all muscle it weighs more than if it is all fat.

For instance, there is a big difference between a body builder who is 230 lbs and a couch potato who is 230 lbs. The 230 lb body builder would have less volume (be thinner) than the person carrying 230 lbs at 40% bodyfat.

Exercise and weight-lifting can make the difference even when you weigh the same. If you are losing body fat and gaining muscle, you may very well weigh exactly the same, but your body volume will be different. You will be thinner at exactly the same weight.

Dear Terminal, Children learn to be cruel very early on. Just go to any elementary school. You've obviously done very well since you are only 13 pounds to your goal. Don't listen to some kid. Rather listen to those who have seen the change in you. I bet you do get some compliments! Don't you? Focus on that.

It's hard enough to get motivated to exercise without someone telling you to do "less" exercise. If you are doing walking, then everyday is definitely NOT overdoing it. Keep motivated and keep up the good work. Remember the last few pounds are supposed to come off very slowly anyway so that you can ease into lifetime maintenance.
