I crave Chinese food like crazy too! Usually treat myself to local take out once a month... two weeks to go!

Yes it can be so dang frustrating! I’ve been weighing but not recording it and it’s all over the place. 🙄

I know my lady lifter friends get it. 💪🏼👍🏼 Yes Paige! Haven't had it in forever since the restaurants in Illinois are just now starting to open and really have no interest in dining with others yet I feel a to go box will not be big enough for all I have planned. 🤣😂

Muscle gains - or just water repairing those muscles. In the end, losing inches is much better than the Idiot Box number any day!

muscle weights more than fat

Muscle repair requires water to be retained so heavier the day after lifting is actually a great sign that you’re building bigger stronger muscles

Mine goes up and down a lot too. It’s probably just the new muscle! :)

Thanks for sharing. Often, the more I exercise, the more the number on the scale goes up. Have to remember muscle weighs more than fat.

Muscle and water! And you’re right - we get preoccupied with the scale. Better to measure how you feel or how clothes might fit if anything. And your plan for Chinese is spot on! We’re having some tonight!

Muscle s are good at retaining water. The scale does not always reflect actual progress.

Yes- I know all of this and I am losing inches which is thrilling. Back to fitting into my 10's with ease- Couldn't breathe in them before starting back to the gym on 6/11. Maybe one day I'll even be in a 6 or 8.... 💪🏻🤷🏻♀️
