Over the past year I’ve lost 2 pant sizes but my weight is the same as before. My arms, back and abs also look way more toned, and I can eat a lot more without gaining fat. It’s intense stuff, totally normal 🙂

Pole is going to make you strong- in many ways, you’re using your muscles to lift parts, or all of you! The arm and upper body strength required, as well as the core strength required, will really encourage your body to put on muscle and get strong. That’s a big reason why many of us come to pole in the beginning!
And, the whole “muscle weighs more than fat” thing is totally true! You’ll put on muscle, but you won’t be as big.
So, in many ways, your scale will “lie” to you. Many people believe that the more fit they are, the lower the number on the scale, but that is definitely not true! I’m the thinnest I have ever been, as well as the fittest, but my scale indicates that I am also the heaviest! -
Im kinda embarressed tho because i way 205 and when i tell ppl that they never believe me. Im 5’9 by the way and my ass is big 48 inches.

That is whats happening to me! My weight is kind of dropping here and there but I’m losing inches like crazy!! Whoohoo!! I think it’s completely normal!

There’s no reason to be embarrassed- I actually weigh the same as you do, and I’m a bit shorter, 5′ 7″. My hips are about 41 inches, so I’m not that far off.
Honestly, I gained the weight when I started running, but I lost quite a bit of size.
Anyways, what business of it is anyone else’s what you weigh? If they don’t understand that the number on the scale is not an accurate estimation of health, or of your fitness, or of how your body looks and feels, then why tell them at all?
Perhaps they need a little more education 😉 -
I’ve had my pole since the start of this month and I’ve lost near on a whole dress size in this time but my weight has stayed the same. From pole you are changing your bodies composition In that you are building muscle but losing fat. Muscle takes up less space then fat so I bet you are looking slimmer dispite what the scales are saying. Xx
