Am I imagining?

Can you move around fat? Just last week I was able to try on some pants-the fit was so much better and just slightly loose. Yesterday, the same pants were so tight I could hardly button them!!! WHAT!? I was so upset! It is all that chocolate over the holidays!
How did that happen so quickly? Then I thought maybe some things are shifting around. What do you guys think? Have you experienced this? Or am I just kidding myself, and I really have gained that much in the last week?:confused:

Welcome to FAT SHIFT. It's an amazing thing. As you change your shape inside, the fat shifts along with it. It seems that fat shifts UP (how wierd is THAT) and then (eventually) it goes away. But all that "third bun" moves up to hip pad and sits there for a little bit. That's when TTT (T-Tapp Twist) becomes even MORE important. Really watch that form - check out all the threads on that one...

Did you eat bad over the holidays? High carb, salt, sweets?? Now is the time to focus on clean eating, along with your exercise habits.

Is it close to your TOM? I tend to gain an easy 5 pds the week before... Alfalfa helps with that.

Do you skin brush? I wold highly recommend that... could be fat shift too, so just keep moving, it will do your body good! :)

Thanks for the info! I am a week away from TOM. I did not do well over the holidays...but surprised that in less than a week there was such a BIG difference!
I know all about nutrition for I have been on whole food diets in the past! Even raw diets! Just really have not been a good girl the past few months! But was able to lose inches anyway! Got to get back eating better!

Yes, I do skin brush! And am loving it! I am about to get the Alfalfa!

Glad to have questions answered in such a timely matter!! Thanks to you both!! :)
