I DON'T UNDERSTAND DID THE MOST EXERCISE YESTERDAY THAT I HAVE DONE. ATE RIGHT AND WEIGHED MYSELF AT THE SAME TIME I ALWAYS DO AND IT SHOWS I GAINED 3 POUNDS??? MAYBE I SHOULD NOT WEIGH MYSELF EVERYDAY

    You shouldn't really be weighing yourself everyday. Try weighing yourself once a week in the morning right after you've gone to the bathroom. Do you wear anything when you weigh yourself?

    NO I DON'T WEAR ANYTHING. DO YOU THINK IT IS JUST WATER WEIGHT?

    Water weight, muscle building, and your muscles retain water after workouts. It happens to me all the time so I had to stop driving myself crazy by weighing in every day. It'll all even out. Try to weigh yourself at most once a week. Good luck.

    Yup, I usually weigh more the morning after my harder workout days. Muscles retaining water!
