Agreed. I actually think 12 pounds is damn impressive, Shani! Whenever we started a new rowing season in college, a lot of the "openweight" women (as opposed to "lightweight," which are official categories in competitive rowing--based on a very strict weight line) usually took at least 2-3 months to BEGIN losing weight... SERIOUSLY. And they were hitting the gym hardcore, in addition to rowing 2 hours every morning. It just takes that long for the body to change fat to muscle in a way that shows up on a scale.
/threadjack, sorry... but hey, 12 pounds is nothing to sneeze at!
