Is it normal to lose inches but not weight?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, it’s normal to lose inches without seeing the number on the scale change. Your body composition, water levels, and normal weight fluctuations can all affect what the scale shows.

Your body can get smaller without getting lighter. For example, you might lose some body fat while gaining muscle, which takes up less space for its weight. That can mean your clothes fit differently even if the scale barely budges.

Water retention, digestion, and ordinary day-to-day fluctuations can also hide gradual changes on the scale. If you’re tracking progress, measurements, how clothes fit, and how you feel can tell you more than one weigh-in.
