I have been working a very labor intensive job for about 3 months now and have lost enough inches on my waist to go down two pants sizes yet my total weight when I go on the scale remains around the same. How is it possible that I lost 4 or 5 inches off my waist yet the scale doesn’t change? Is it possible what weight in fat I am loosing is made up for with an increase in muscle mass?

    Correct answer. I got one on sale. I was really disappointed in just how inaccurate their BMI, bio readings were.

    It’s likely, it wouldn’t have picked up much difference in the OP even…

      I would hope BMI is accurate given most impedance scales have you enter your height
