I don't know the science of it, but I do know that after being at goal and exercising hard for six months I had a 24" waist, 33" over my tummy, 36" hips and slimmed down to size four. Three months later I was still in a size 4 with a 30" inch tummy measurement, 34" hips and my waist had gone up to 26". I lost fat on my hips and belly, but gained size in the waist without adding fat. The muscles had to grow. I have read that that is common in athletic women, to lose the slimmer waist.
