I have had a trainer for several years, and he advises all he clients to go by how there clothing fits and not by scales. Reason being muscle is heavier than fat, so when you excercise you build muscle and you might not loss weight like you want, but you will go down in clothing sizes and clothing will fit different. Also you have to do cardo with lifting weights because it strengthens you cardovastcular system and lungs which provides blood and oxygen to new muscle tissue. Also cardo lowers you cholestoral, burns fat, and improves your mebtoblism.
