I am losing weight at a good and steady pace, so I don't have any complaints there, but as the fat has been dropping off the muscles underneath it all seem to be smaller than I expected they would be. Now I may just be imagining this, but has anyone else lost muscle mass while on Jenny Craig? I am on the 1500 calorie menu and have gone from around 270 down to 220 in around 6 months.

I'd like to know the same thing. Also, i'm sure there are lots of posts about this but can someone re-post any websites that are user friendly for toning. I bought some dumbells , a resistance band, and a floor mat.
I don't know what to do with them :unsure: (I figured out the floor mat part)

Thanks

Go to YouTube.com. There are literally DOZENS of videos showing how to use free weights, barbells, resistance bands, etc.
