Singapore Fitness Coach: Fat loss- The discouraging moments

One of my clients was recently feeling "down". She has been training with us for a month and has been pretty good sticking to a fat loss kind of diet plan. She lost 2kg in the first 2 weeks but for the next 2 she didn't lose any weight.

Sure some of it was muscle gain, but we also know that muscle gain is not a fast process and you can only gain (if EVERYTHING is correct and you are NOT on drugs) about 0.5kg per week.

My advice was to "stick with it". Because fat loss doesn't seem to be linear.

We measured again this week and she lost another 3kg... yeah!

While we are not overly concerned with weight loss and rather prefer fat loss, this client started quite overweight so weight loss is a good way to gague progress for now.
