flabulous17's Journal, 23 February 2016

I think this slight wt gain is due to the fact that I started lifting weights again, because my body measurments and body fat percentage has not changed. Trying not to let this deter me from reaching my goals.

.4 pounds could easily be water/fluid weight. Especially when you consider that a gallon of water is almost 8.5 pounds. I wouldn't give .4 pounds even one moment of thought. I personally weight myself in the morning right after waking up and going to the bathroom. So exactly the same situation all the time. But even then... I will see a .5 pound difference (or more) one way or the other. I wouldn't worry about it. You're fine. :)

Someone said on here that your weight factors from what took place two days ago, is correct.

After workouts, our muscles hold extra fluid while in their repair mode. I always appear to weigh more after weight training. Your bodyfat % is more important anyway. Good Luck!

Thank you for the tip @HCB, I was not aware of that!

Muscle will make you gain some weight. I know for sure that my weight has gained mostly due to weights. For example- a year and a half ago I weighed 145-147 and my BF% was 28-29%. Today I hover in the 155-152 range and I am around 24% BF. in that last year I really started to get into weight training. So a big part of my weight gain was muscle. But now my goal is 18% BF. So keep that in mind. Try to follow BF% more so than the scale
