Hi! Those following my earlier posts will know that I have been a bit anxious of late because my weight seems to have stalled (more-or-less) despite my still losing fat. I work out 4 x week in the gym doing high-intensity cardio and weights. Recently I have increased the intensity of both and this has corresponded with a weight stall. I've read the wise words (as usual) of Teuthis who says that muscle is seven times as heavy as fat per volume and that weight gain/stall is usual. But there will be period of exchange and after this we will experience weight loss again.

Has this happened to anyone: that they increased their gym work, their weight stalled for a while, and then they started losing again (remember, I'm talking weight, not fat)?

Any stories to keep me going are most welcome!

Marissa.
