Hello I am new to the group, I lost 12 pounds in a week but I lost nothing my second week. Is it possible that you lose inches without losing pounds on the scale and is this a common issue

Hi Sweetpea.

It is possible for the scale not to move if you're building muscle and burning at.
Have you been exercising?

Losing 12lbs in a week won't be from fat.

I don't say that to discourage you but so that you are aware that this weight loss will be mostly water, muscle and some fat.

A good weight loss per week should be around 0.5 to 1lbs per week.

Anymore is too aggressive and you will bottom out as you have seen.

Eat to support your metabolism, and create a small deficit (200 cals) to assist burning fat, this is what i teach my clients.

Hope this helps.
