IvorEvilen said: To reiterate what many have already said: you can't target fat loss. You can only target with muscle development. Sometimes if your core is weak, strengthening your core can make you look leaner, but every body is different. EDIT: I forgot to mention, always weigh yourself at the same time everyday, wearing the same clothes or naked. Please keep in mind your body naturally fluctuates in weight. A difference in 3-5 pounds with no change in body composition is normal. Heavier people can have even wider swings. Just because you are 5 pounds lighter after a week of dieting does not mean you lost 5 pounds of fat. It's just water loss and less food in your digestive tract. Weight loss takes time. Lots of it. |
I would just add that it would be good to take some key measurements and pictures every week or two to see the evolution. That way even if the scale doesn't show much change in the weight (that could be because you gained muscle or retained more water) you would see change on the measurements and looks, that is evidence that you are still progressing.
