I've seen that before. Sometimes a good before-and-after pic set helps, but sometimes it's a skewed body image.year, its conversation I KEEP having with my sister, who has been doing the 5 k challenge, so no really " strength" work, after some impressive weight loss in the first couple of months or so, her weights has been staying stubbornly static, whilst the fat is clearly melting a way, and her muscle tone is improving tremendously.
it doesn't matter how often I tell her how slim she looks and how the muscles are bigger and storing more glucose and water and she has increased the amount of blood in her system, the "scales don't lie" and sh is getting discouraged that's despite the more obvious evidence that she has dad to buy new clothes in a smaller size. it's a very ingrained belief
