Why do I look like I'm getting in shape, but my weight is still the same number?

[Isaif370]

I've been working out for 2 months, my performance is much better, I'm drinking a gallon of water a day and sometimes 2. I'm eating healthy, steamed meat and vegetables.

I run, walk, and jog 6 miles every single day sometimes before doing weights or after doing weights depending on which body parts I work in the gym (free weights and body weight only.

My performance has improved, my body is changing but my weight still has the same number I started out with.

maybe all this while you were losing your water weight, also known as bloating weight. it makes you look fat, but what it really is, is just water retention from eating a lot of salt, or drinking booze a lot... and guess what, it doesn't even increase one's weight a lot. if you can physically see a difference but the scale says otherwise, this is the only logical explanation... so your weight hasn't changed much

Dropping fat and gaining muscle?

Either way, your weight is just a number. If you're seeing improvements aside from that, you're doing well.

Your probably losing fat weight and gaining muscle weight which is why your body looks better but yet your weight is more or less the same.

[maiez]

weight is just a number, so you're gaining muscle but losing fat, losing twice as much fat

[Princessofpersia]

U r most likely loosening weight and gaining muscle

[Acosmicist]

Muscle is denser than fat.

Are you trying to gain or lose?
