When The Numbers Jump Up Unexpectedly
You've been doing good eating a balanced diet, exercising consistently, and staying motivated. Then you step on the scale and it says you gained weight....What happened??!
Before you get discouraged, angry, quit working out, or eat those chips you've been missing because you've gained anyway, think about the many causes of sudden weight gain.
1. Are you within 2 weeks of your period starting? weight can go up 2-10lbs in the weeks before your period and during due to water retention.
2. Do you have IBS? Eating foods high in acid and gasey foods will cause sudden weight gain due to gas build up.
3. You might have gained muscle. Have you been doing lots of strength training? Check your measurements, if they are going down, congrats you've gain muscle which is a good thing.
4. Are you eating enough? If you are not eating enough calories your body goes into "starvation mode" and will keep the fat it has stored.
5. There may be an underlying medical problem that you didn't know was there. If the weight keeps going up and you are still excercising and eating right check with your doctor.
Do any of these sound like you? Great that's good news because it wont last. Just as fast as those pounds showed up they will soon disappear and you can get back to bringing your sexy back :)
You are doing a GREAT job keep it up!
