Do YOU Jiggle?

SweetPoison2 · 09-21-2008, 07:32 PM

I swear I was cutting up some steak for my chili and I...I was jiggling!!

I have never ever jiggled! My tummy, and butt....and boobs...!!

Tell me this is a good thing??

Nikouli · 09-21-2008, 07:47 PM

I think I heard one time on this board that you get "jiggly" before you lose, or whoosh or whatever. lol. Either that or you happen to be losing muscle somehow...

SweetPoison2 · 09-21-2008, 07:52 PM

hmm...muscle huh? That does not sound too good! lol! Well I think I am getting thinner therefore, flabbier?

Or no?

Nikouli · 09-21-2008, 08:06 PM

lol I couldn't really tell ya. Maybe Fawn or someone will come in and fill us in! :P

SweetPoison2 · 09-21-2008, 08:09 PM

Is Fawn like the forum Doctor?

Nikouli · 09-21-2008, 08:13 PM

Yeah...pretty much. lol.

miss sparky · 09-22-2008, 04:51 AM

I think Fawn is a nutritionist.

any way....as you start losing fat you do go all jiggly...is ok nothing to worry bout. Good ting! It goes all squishy jiggle and then gradually gets less. Honest.

FloridaShell · 09-22-2008, 05:22 AM

Some parts are a little jiggly, but I'm just work in progress!

binga · 09-22-2008, 05:33 AM

Even thin people can jiggle.
I think it's age and loss of muscle tone.

There is a "theory" that after the fat is removed from a fat cell, the cell refills with water in the short-term. Eventually the fat cell will release the water and that is where the whoosh comes from. This may be a reason for the non-linear fat-loss some experience. You are doing everything right for weeks with no drop on the scale and then all of a sudden you have a 3, 4, 5lb. drop overnight. Prior to the whoosh, fat that was once firm will get "squishy" and "jiggly" which suggest a change in the composition of the fat cell.

Okay. I am taking this as a good thing, then.

KrisA · 09-22-2008, 01:12 PM

It is a good thing! I jiggle just before a whoosh!

I love my jiggle!

twinzie02 · 09-22-2008, 01:40 PM

I jiggled...therefore I lost. haha. I too was suffering from the "Jiggles". I had felt squishy for about a week prior. Then over the weekend a nice 3 lbs woosh came along. I am thrilled. I have been stuck in a plateau for over a month.

pebbles7673 · 09-22-2008, 01:44 PM

I'm having this same problem!! I'm only 23 and my boobs a squishy now. They were firm but now it feels like I don't have anything in them. DH said I could get a boob job, but I'm not into that. If I start working out do you think this would help?> Sorry to be so personal..

Because of weightloss, breast feeding or what? I think my problem came after I breast fed two boys..hungry boys at that!

SweetPoison2 · 09-23-2008, 05:48 AM

Interesting....I just find it so weird that parts of me wiggle now!! At strange times....

ItsToni · 09-23-2008, 06:04 AM

I think someone once coined the term "jiggly puff" or something like that - referring to this squishy state LOL Part of me have always been squishy, so I don't think I would know the difference

miss sparky · 09-23-2008, 07:30 AM

Well I'm very squishy, but I def notice that a period of extra squishy jiggle always comes before a loss of inches...( I do weigh myself sometimes, but have learnt that clothes/tape measure are a much better way of telling.)
I haven't lost a pound in 5months, but my waist just keeps going down...2 inches in the past fortnight....though that was after an age of staying the same.

dae_tona · 09-23-2008, 08:41 AM

Jiggly is always a good thing...it's called 'jiggly poof'. That's the term for it.

This happened to me a few weeks ago. It got worse & worse. And thenovernight-it just disappeared.

Did I see a drop on the scale afterwards? Nope. Just 3 inches lost around my waist and 1 inch lost around my hips.
