Still Mad You Lost ONLY 1 Pound??

Have you ever compared a Pound of Muscle to a Pound of Fat??Dropping Body Fat, and decreasing the inches around your body doesn't just mean losing weight.

 Have you ever compared a Pound of Muscle to a Pound of Fat??Dropping Body Fat, and decreasing the inches around your body doesn't just mean losing weight. When there is a trendy diet that is advertising "lose 10 pounds in 10 days," have you ever thought what those pounds consist of? It could be dropping water weight, or decreasing muscle mass; which will definitely slow down your metabolism. Muscle burns 14 calories per pound, and fat ONLY burns 2 calories per pound. When you are losing muscle mass, you are also decreasing the amount of calories your body burns. 

 Muscle weighs more...yes, but also takes up less space, which will decrease inches around your body and give you a more toned look. *Muscle vs. Fat, what would like more of?*
