muscle weighs the same as fat- a pound of one is the same as a pound of another- the thing is, muscle is denser so it takes up less space...

look, you really need to work on your mentality- work on how you feel being yourself becaudse you're not overweight and if you look fit that's aweseome- you don't need to lose weight. what you need to do is start loving yourself more- becasue that's your real problem
