One frustration for those who want to lose weight can be that some bodies (raises hand) put on muscle much more quickly in the first few months/weeks of a program than they lose fat, so the scale goes nowhere. Even with measuring, that weight number not dropping as rapidly as it could (should?) is frustrating. *smiles* It’s funny how many women miss out on strength training as a necessary part of a fitness program.
