Getting smaller but weighing more...

[RoadRaven]

Garrgh!!
I'm such a dork... major typo... I know that fat weighs less than muscle... and it has been too many days since I last popped in so I can't "edit" my first post so it makes more sense to anyone who chooses to read this!

Anyways, its interesting to read the responses, particularly LateLate and Lise... so I am not alone... I just espected to be becoming this lean athelete... and I really seem to be getting there very slowly. I know this is the best way to change your shape/alter your metabolism... but I IS GETTING IMPASHINS!!!

Lise, pounds are part of a stone (like grams are part of a kilogram). Its funny cause I work in both imperial and metric. Distances and speeds are always in kilometres... weight is usually in imperial (I know all my babies' weights in pounds/ounces but do my cooking in grams...) ... length is a combination (height in feet/inches but sewing in centimetres and metres)
I was part way through school when Aotaroa New Zealand changed from imperial to metric...

I know a pound of fat weighs as much as a pound of muscle (LOL, used to get my kids with that - what weighs more... a kilo of feathers or a kilo of stones?)... sorry I was being unclear... I was referring to weight in relation to volume... thanks for the heads up on that too.

Anyways, here's to chucking out the scales (well, I'll have to toss out my parent's ones!) and stop worrying about weight. I've said it often enough on this forum. Time to take my own advice I guess!
