Parvathi 2 Posted October 7, 2005 Okay, so for the past three weeks I wasn't able to make it to the gym, due to school holidays. This week, I jumped back on the wagon. On Monday I got another fill and started back to the gym. I've been every morning. I've been eating better, not snacking after dinner, etc. So I jump on the scale this morning .. and wouldn't ya know, I've gained a kilo (2.2 lbs). Not gonna let it get me down, much lol, just wanted to vent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jachut 487 Posted October 7, 2005 OK so my theory on this is that you've allowed your body to rest. We all know that rest is required to build muscle ergo you have built 1kg of muscle over the past three weeks! Simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
"with the band" 1 Posted October 7, 2005 Don't let it get to you. You started out on the right track...and you will succeed - just keep it up. Vent anytime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
