KETO TIP: Why You Should Track Your Progress Beyond the Scale
When you start a keto or low-carb lifestyle, it’s natural to obsess over the number on the scale. We’ve all done it—stepping on the scale daily, hoping for a drop. But here’s the truth: weight isn’t always the best way to measure your progress.
Keto works wonders on your body composition—that means losing fat while potentially gaining or preserving lean muscle. This can result in a leaner, healthier body without massive changes on the scale. That’s why it’s critical to track your progress in other ways:
- 📏 Take Measurements: Measure your waist, hips, thighs, and arms every couple of weeks. Inches lost are often a better indicator of fat loss than pounds.
- 📸 Snap Progress Photos: Take front, side, and back photos in the same clothes and lighting every few weeks. You’ll be amazed at the changes you didn’t notice day to day.
- 💪 Track Strength Gains: If you’re working out, track your reps, sets, and how much you lift. More strength = more progress!
The key is consistency—not perfection. Small changes over time lead to massive results. So, if the scale stalls, don’t panic. You’re still winning.
