which do you prefer? Is it better for you to lose inches or weight.
If I can fit into the size I want, I don't care how much I weigh!
How about you?

It's best to look at the inches as the scale can be deceiving. Reason is that muscle weighs more than fat but takes up less room. So, during a weight loss period you may only see 2 or 3 pounds off and maybe 20 inches...indicating that your body may be losing fat and gaining muscle. If getting the proper nutrtional value from what your eating, the body will heal itself and bring you to a healthier place. Your body decides what it needs and responds to it, wether it needs to lose or gain weight.
For instance, the program I use led me to a weight loss of 15 pounds and 40.5 inches in just 23 days. Is this safe? Absolutely! Why? Because the program has all the nutrients, vitamins, minerals and trace minerals needed to sustain the body without causing starvation or muscle loss like traditional dieting. Awesome stuff!

I don't really care what the scale says...I care about the way my clothes fit. So I would have to say that I care about losing inches and not really about what I weigh. I want to fit into my 'skinny' clothes!!

Inches are easier to count and it makes it easier to see how much you lost, a scale is only numbers that can vary, but inches are more stable and encourage you to excercise and do more.

Dear Nica
That an interesting question, if I may say so. Actually what you are asking is some form of 'chicken or egg' dilemma. If you want to lose inches on your waist line, you need to lose weight. If you insist on reducing your waist line with artificial method, you will lose inches. And your weight will remain the same. My best advice to you is to go on a long term diet to get off the extra weight and the extra waist line. Believe me, by going on a diet, your body will shed the extra pounds and you may find your dresses fit you well. This is my take for now but do contact me again. OK? Thanks Love: Bro. Joe. GBU
