Weight Loss Breakdown-Muscle/Fat/Water

[Nomoreexcuses]

Hi everyone!

Just completed my second week of Cohen's down 1.6kg this week which I am very happy with! Got this idea in my head that I won't lose weight but am being nicely surprised is a very effective diet. Unfortunately my bubble was burst when the lady at my gym measured me on her super scales and broke down my loss into: 600g fat, 300g muscle and 700g water loss.

This definitely took the edge off my excitement as only 600g of fat sounds a lot less than 1.6kg and 300g of muscle in a week is significant. I know water and fat loss go hand in hand so I am unconcerned with that side of things but I am worried about the muscle and that I will end up "skinny fat". Have been doing some research and am thinking will start doing resistance training (weights) three times a week to preserve my muscle.

What is everyone else's take on this issue of weight loss breakdown and of fat vs muscle?

Hope you all have a good day x
