Answers:

This is a true and proven fact, many people (especially men) get disheartened when they go to the gym for a few weeks, because their weight goes up! The best way is to request a 'pinch' test from a personal trainer, or by buying the equipment yourself. It is simply a 'peg' which measures the size of the folds in your skin all around the body. Really simple to perform, and usually quite accurate, it will save money and time wasted getting yourself completely analysed.
