I don't know for sure, but I remember reading somewhere that our bodies often store water in place of the fat for awhile as a sort of "placeholder" for in case you gain it back. So, the water weighs more but tales up less space than fat, and I believe those bodyfat scales are affected by water % retention which might explain the bf% number not changing?

Maybe someone has a better idea, I've experienced the same thing and I'm very curious about it too!

Hey Aimee, congrats on the shrinking waistline, our height, start weight and goal are nearly identical!
