I ask this cause I weighed 17.2 after football/boxing last Wednesday. Extremely sore up til today with my upper body as it was my first boxing session. But the scale is showing a 4-5lb increase.... I have had 1 meal that was a cheat meal but was no more than 600 over my calories?? Was assuming it was water weight but not sore hardly now and the weight is still there :*

    Give it a few days

    You can't put on 4-5 lbs fat in a day ...so what else could it be ?

    And just because you're not feeling pain doesn't mean that you aren't still repairing your muscles..or sodium,..or hormones etched
