These 8 Women Look Like They Lost Weight—but the Scale Didn’t Budge

You Need Posted on by

When most people start a weight-loss plan, they typically have a goal weight in mind—and then do regular weigh-ins with the bathroom scale to track the rate at which the pounds peel off.

The crazy thing is, even though your clothes might fit better and you feel lighter, sometimes the scale will stubbornly stay put. It’s demoralizing, sure, but also a good reminder not to get too hung up on what the number says. Instead, nutritionists advise that you chart your diet progress by how much healthier you feel, any increase in your strength and endurance, and a change in body-fat composition ratio, among other measures.

RELATED: Here’s What to Eat for Lunch if You’re Trying to Slim Down, According to a Nutritionist

Don’t believe us that it’s possible to drop lbs without seeing that reflected on the scale? Take it from these 8 women, who posted dramatic before-and-after images on social media to explain what they learned when this happened to them.

“In both of these pictures I weighed 160 lbs, this is the difference over a year of CrossFit had on my body,” @kari.leigh said. “I gained a lot of strength and lost body fat. The best part was I felt incredible too! I stopped stressing about the scale so much and just focused on how I felt. It boosted my confidence and allowed me to get to know myself better.”

“The number on the scale is only one unit of measurement,” @fitness_cara captioned these photos of herself, both of which showed her at 127 lbs. “I recently stopped caring about the number and celebrating it, it is so freeing not letting this number control me!”

“Honestly I think the biggest factor is just time,” @em_wizzfit wrote. “Being kind to yourself, forgiving yourself, bit by bit slowly adds up. My confidence has never had anything to do with my weight or my body shape, but my perception of myself. [That’s] what you need to work on.”

“So many women think the answer to looking or feeling their best is to lose weight,” @theblondefiless wrote. “While for some people this is certainly true, for others it may be best to pursue a body recomposition.”

⬆️And this is why the scale should not be the main measurement of progress or health. The scale does not differentiate between muscle, fat, water, and organs. I am the same weight between these two photos, but my body composition and health is a whole lot different. ◀️Picture on the left was taken over 12 years ago. At the time I was doing only cardio; eating a diet high in processed carbs, and not nearly enough protein or healthy fats. Remember the Special K Diet? Yeah that was me at this point. I was drinking alcohol and making those ihop runs at midnight. ?I was suffering from mad digestive issues. ▶️Picture on the right is now. I do mostly strength training and a total of about 30 minutes if hiit style cardio a week. I don’t drink alcohol and I eat quality protein, healthy fats, complex carbs and veggies at every meal and snack. 80-90% my diet is nutrient dense foods, but I do leave a little wiggle room for a treat here and there if I want it. However, I have come to find out I rarely want those foods. ??‍♀️ ???Ok so lets talk about how I got from picture on the left to picture on the right. Contrary to what some people say, you cannot turn fat into muscle. It is a two step process. I first lost the fat, (and actually got myself wayyy to skinny for a long time; leading to lack of a menstrual cycle but that is for a different Post). And then over the past few years with the introduction of counting my macros and prioritizing strength training have gotten my hormones back up and running and built up my lean muscle mass while keeping my body fat at a healthy level. ⬆️The scale is just a number, and will not be how I will measure my progress or health. #transfornariontuesday Questions?!

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY – SCALES VERSUS PICTURES ? – – My nana always says a picture tells a thousand words – well here’s one for you – same weight, three years apart ? – Feeling healthy is THE number one measure of a healthy body, and I know that whats the mirror, and in my progress pics like this one, are 100% more accurate measure, and I’m so glad I’ve documented my whole weight loss journey ? – My weight has shot up to 68kgs again in the last while, and my minds been playing tricks on me ??‍♀️? The last time I was 68kgs was 2015, I was just 12 weeks into my first ever training program and I had lost a massive 7kgs already!! #delightedwithlife ? – I used to live by the scales, and got no end of satisfaction seeing it drop every week, when I was on a weight loss programme, but more recently, when my weight levelled off, I stopped caring about the scales ? – However, to be totally honest, i still had a little panic when I weighed myself & realised just how much my weight has increased recently ? – But it just goes to show u that the scales is not an accurate unit of measure, especially when you train with weights ? I’m not gonna say I’m entirely happy at this weight but seeing this pic deffo helps ? – Enjoy your training, enjoy your food, enjoy your life, and your body will respond accordingly ??‍♀️ PS I’m writing this with a belly full of dominos ??? Back on track tomorrow ? – #transformationtuesday #sameweight #differentbody #scalesversuspictures #mindfuck #healthybody #healthymind

“This is why you shouldn’t depend on the scales when you’re working out!” @laurapattison_fit shared. “I have so much more muscle definition now & look completely different, yet weigh the same. Our bodies are incredible!”

“In both photos, I weighed the exact same amount, 145 lbs,” said @jay.qwellinn. “It’s amazing what eating clean and some muscle definition can do for you.”

Asparagus With Grilled Melon Salad

You Need Posted on by

How to Make It

Step 1

Heat a stovetop grill pan over medium-high.

Step 2

Drizzle oil on the cantaloupe, and place the slices on the grill. Grill the slices, without moving them, for about 30 seconds, or until browned on the first side. Flip the melon slices, and grill on the other side for an additional 30 seconds. Transfer to a cutting board to cool slightly.

Step 3

Cut the melon slices into 1/2-inch pieces, and place them in a medium bowl. Add tomatoes, mint, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, chili paste, and lime juice. Mix well; set aside to let the flavors mingle.

Step 4

Meanwhile, heat 5 tablespoons of water in a large skillet over medium. Cut butter into 8 pieces. When bubbles just start rising to the water’s surface, begin adding the butter to the pan, 1 piece at a time, whisking constantly to form an emulsion. When all the butter is incorporated, reduce the heat to medium-low to keep the temperature just below a simmer. Add the thyme and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and swirl the pan to combine. Add the asparagus to the pan, and toss gently to coat it in the butter.

Step 5

Cover the pan, and cook for 5 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender all the way through when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Transfer the asparagus to a platter, and spoon the melon salad on top. Scatter a few shavings of ricotta salata over the salad, if desired.

This Gym Introduced a ‘Selfie Room’—and the Internet Is Not Having It

You Need Posted on by

While scrolling through the social media accounts for The Edge Fitness Club, a gym franchise in Connecticut, one thing is very clear: their members love a good sweaty, workout selfie. You’d be hard-pressed to find an image in the gym’s IG feed that does not depict someone weight lifting or showcasing their post-workout abs for the camera. Basically, it's the ultimate fit-spiration.

While some people would die of embarrassment from flexing their newly-defined triceps in a selfie, there are many others who don’t think twice about snapping pictures of their booty in front of a mirror at the gym. Plenty of people want to document —with clear, visual evidence—their fitness progress, and who are we to judge?

After noticing that many of their members love a good gym selfie, The Edge recently commissioned an online survey conducted by The Harris Poll of 1,500 adults to learn more about the trend. The result? A whopping 43% of the respondents said they had taken photos or videos of themselves at the gym, and 27% of those photos were in selfie mode. Armed with these numbers, the gym decided to pioneer its way to offering the first ever "selfie room" at their Fairfield, CT, location. Members were told they would soon be granted access to the photo room, which would be equipped with good lighting, hair products, and fitness accessories to help them optimize their gym selfie to the absolute fullest. (And no, it wasn't an April Fool's joke, apparently.)

But gym-goers quickly took to social media to clue The Edge in on how they really felt about the so-called selfie room, and it was not pretty. At all.

Not everyone was against the idea, though.

Regardless, the backlash was enough to make the gym rethink their plan. "As of now, we are unsure if The Edge will be putting this on hold indefinitely or if it will come to fruition," a PR representative for the company told Health in an email. "The Edge is taking into account the feedback they received from our members and are evaluating from there."

So, April Fool's after all?
