Muscle Mass is Worth More-Smaller Size, Greater Health
Muscle takes up much less space on your body than does fat. While 1 pound of muscle is the size of a small tangerine, 1 pound of fat is the size of a large grapefruit!!!
Do not be discouraged when you do not see the scale going down, as your clothing size will probably decrease faster with proper weight loss!
What does that mean?It means you are building lean muscle, which will help your body function better and feel better.
-- For more incentive, losing 6 pounds of fat is like losing a basketball!
So do not just focus on the scale, but how much better your clothes are fitting.
