3 Ways to Keep Track of Fat Loss

If you think you’ve hit a plateau in your fitness program, don’t quit. First check to see if you really have stopped making progress.

Most people get hung up on scale weight only. But the scale is affected by many hidden factors (such as water intake, sodium intake, etc.). And while you may not be getting lighter, you could still be losing inches. Here are three good ways to judge how well your fat-loss plan is working:

  1. Grab a tape measure once a week and measure your chest, your upper arms, around your belly button, and at your waist. Keep a written record of the measurements over time.
  2. Have your body fat tested at a gym or with a body-fat scale on a regular basis.
  3. Just look in the mirror! (After all, isn’t looking better what you’re really going for?)
