SGT (Join to see) Interesting. I always try to explain to people the difference in weight of muscle vs fat. My better half was having a hard time grasping that her weight was increasing slightly after going to the gym, even though her figure was improving.

My go-to: a pound of lean muscle (which improves resting metabolism) is ~2.2 times thinner than a pound of fat. Then I remind them that the scale doesn't tell the whole story. Gotta use your eyes. Then I share this link, because shameless plug-

SGT (Join to see) - exactly. I pulled up the visual for her to see the difference between the two & you could see it "click". I think I might've created an addict, though...lol
