Hi...I have been on Phase one now since Wednesday and pants that I could not fit into 2 weeks ago are now all of a sudden fitting. The scale has not gone more than 5lbs so it must be inches. I notice the difference in my waist and thighs. Does anyone know why and how we lose inches so fast or this just my imagination???

Kris, I agree with you! It's inches I'm losing, rather than pounds. Why not record your waist, hips, and thigh measurements and then in a month look at the progress you've made? That's what I did, and it's very inspirational!

I'm thinking it's the loss of fat?

I've been on Phase 2 for a week and half. I've lost 1 1/2 pounds but I can now fasten a belt one more notch over. So it's inches not pounds for me too.
