I found out today that I have officially lost 10 pounds! Then why when I look at myself naked do I find myself bigger than before? Anyone else had similar experience?
I think it works the same way as when people say to use a smaller plate and it will look like you are eating more food.
For example if I started big all over and somehow my waist got smaller it would appear that my butt was swollen when in reality it just looks bigger cuz my waist is smaller.
I feel really bloated in the first two weeks (veggies, beans and water!) so I know I feel like I haven't lost anything - I totally understand!!! But I trust the scale so, take it in stride!
Katy, congratulations on losing 10 lbs! That's awesome!
How are your clothes fitting? Do you notice a difference in them? It always seemed to me, too, that the more I lost, the bigger I looked. But I was consoled by seeing that my jeans were getting baggy.
I agree...I bet your weight is shifting...so (probably) your top and waist are smaller, which in turn makes your bum look bigger (even though it probably isn't). Did you take measurements?
