Leaner and more defined muscles? No change? That tells the story more than just the number on the scale, as you could be rebuilding muscle and/or storing more water/glycogen in those muscles. So I wouldn't sweat the scale, go more by what the mirror and clothes are telling you is going on. What’s your body composition doing? Leaner and more defined muscles? No change?

I do strength training twice a week and 3 crossfit wods. I've noticed that I don't seem to be dropping weight. I'm not discouraged b/c I love the other benefits of IF but it does seem weird that my calorie intake has dropped substantially and I'm still hovering around the same starting weight. To be the clear, week one I just played around with the fasting and I ate garbage. Last two weeks I've been pretty close to leangains style 16/8....I suspect that my body is holding onto water and maybe fat as a response to the dramatic shift. Any advice? Love the site btw, long time cathletics guy too. Thanks for all the great info. Hey MoD,
