[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you have significant fat to lose I would not be happy with the scale not coming down. If you are in a reasonable deficit the number of the scale should be going down. With a deficit of 500 calories a day, you can lose 1lb of fat a week, so a little over 4 pounds in a month. Even as a beginner you WILL NOT build that much muscle in a month. Some fat loss will be masked by water retention initially when you start a new workout program but over time the scale should definitely be going down. I am 142lbs, 22% body fat and currently leaning out. The scale is reliably going down by about a pound a week on average. In my opinion you are just not creating a large enough deficit.[/quote]
