Who else has put weight on!

I know folk say muscle weighs more than fat, but 5lbs since I started. I’m sure I’ve lost inches but not measuring for another week. W4R2 today, thank goodness there is going to be more of a breeze today.

I did to start with. Yes, muscle weighs more than fat but you won’t have gained that much muscle bulk in that space of time. I found I was hungry all the time but the runs themselves weren’t really burning as many calories as I was hungry for, if you get my drift. I’m sure you will see changes in your measurements. Stick at it, and watch your fitness improve: this will happen much quicker!

Well done you!

Now, maybe forget the scales and just go with how you and your clothes feel...

I put weight in at one point, ( good for me though)...and you may or may not lose weight

A healthy eating regime, linked with this programme is a great combination!

What I didn’t say was I was recently quite poorly for a couple of months and lost 9kg very quickly so suppose that won’t help.

Right... well that won't help! I can empathise... I have been on the IC and lost weight... and now am trying to get it back on ( we need the fuel for our runs) If you are feeling well, just go with it... build up and you will find things even out...

Very well done you... and do keep posting!

I also put on around 6 pounds, and I wasn’t gorging on chocolate to keep up my energy levels 😄 Don’t worry though: the gain will plateau out and then you’ll start to lose. Trust your body and focus on the fun x
