I understand the concept of weight loss, but what is actually happening in your body when your clothes fit better but you weigh the same?

Fat tissue is being replaced with muscle tissue which is more dense. That's one reason why you can judge how well you're doing by just the scale. A pound of fat and a pound of muscle weight the same, but the muscle takes up a lot less room. Count the inches and use a body fat measuring device.

Yes. You may have lost fats but gained muscle.

exchanging fat for muscle tissue. Muscle is denser, takes up less space.
