All good advice - it is VERY demotivating if you don't see the scale budging in the opposite direction. So once you know that you are gaining muscle - just put your scale away.
A better way to get motivated is to try on a lower size of clothing or go to the mall and you'll see how the clothes are fitting you better.
I always take out my shaadi clothes and when they fit - I am like "YAHOOOOOOOO"
exactly!
its not about the number on the scale...its about the way you fit into your clothes and the way you feel about yourself when you look into the mirror.
