    Unhappy Surprised by results, led me to getting the tape measure out lol

    OK so I'm about 10 days into to a transformation program more details on my blog. Summary: 3 sets of 10 over 12 weeks 2-3 sessions of 30min cardio and 4 workouts per week back&bi's, chest&tri's, legs&abs etc...

    My main issue is I just had my 1st weigh in since starting as I really didn't know what to expect...

    I know muscle weighs more than fat and I know I'm only using cheap home digital scales (think they have other sensors when barefoot for bf %) anyway RESULTS:

    Definitely added 4 pounds! unfortunately scales also say 0.8% BF increase

    I don't mind added weight but really hope the bf will reduce guess I can't rely on scales for BF will browse forum for alternate measuring device.

    CURRENT PLAN - Motivation not effected - I feel like my workout is a good beginner level so will aim to finish 12 weeks then reassess.

    I finally measured my waist properly 38.5" (maybe I lost a bit from 10 days ago....?) but still it was there in black and white - currently 'Obese' UK definition.

    Will update blog weekly with further stats - though I don't think I need to start measuring legs, chest and arms just yet .

    advice greatly received!

    Ten days! If you were expecting big results in ten days you've got unrealistic expectations.

    You're using a cheap scale with BF measurement, which gives you a measurement of, what, +-1%? Give it three months and then see.
