I totally agree. As long as I feel good and I'm comfortable in my clothes, I'm trying hard not to worry about the scale so much. I know that I'm eating healthier overall than I ever did before, and though the scale isn't moving as quickly as I would like (does it ever?) I'm getting into old jeans that I haven't been able to wear for quite a while. Also, muscle is more compact and weighs more than fat--so if we are doing weight bearing exercises, we should be increasing muscle mass. I've reduced my cardio in order to have time to have more time for free weights. I've been walking 4-5 miles a day for the past 8 months, with no visible results (except in my calves).. I recently reduced the walking to 2 1/2 - 3 miles a day, while spending more energy and time on the weights, and I'm starting to see big results.. Just thought I would share, because it seems to be working--at least for me..
