lean muscle loss?
| Mon, 10-20-2003 - 10:47am |
Hi everyone,
I have a question. I began the SB diet last wednesday....and it just so happens I am also on a fitness program...since last wednesday I have lost 5 pounds...have not felt hungry, pants don't feel looser, and I was surprised when I stepped on the scale at the gym this morning. It just so happened that I had an assesment test this morning....According to the body fat analysis, all 5 of those pounds are lean muscle....not fat. Can someone help?
Thanks,
Michelle

Those electronic gismos can only do so much, as is evident by the fact that drinking a lot of water can throw them off. You do lose a lot of water weight in Phase 1. I think you'll find that your body fat percentage goes back to where it was (or better!) in Phase 2.
Your new eating habits--along with your weight-lifting habits--are going to help you build and keep muscle in the long run.
