    Really?

    Granted, I came from a far tougher forum, but I don't see the snarkiness. Lame joke, yes, snark, no.

    (I'm totally joking Terrapin).

    Okay, so I do not want to derail the thread further. . .but. . . 8500 calories a day for 50 days. Seriously. My head hurts. . . . .50 Ironman's would be just brutal. Sorry OP. Go back to your regular programming everybody.

    Think Tarzan or Jane. I am not judging what people wear but felt I needed to include all walks. . . .and covers.

    Ok, so that was how I took it. But I work with teens. They have all these crazy phrases that seem innocent to me but have totally different meanings than I understand. I thought perhaps we stumbled upon one of those.

    The answer is in your post: starting a new exercise program, especially a hard one, causes you to retain water to aid in the repair and recovery process. Give yourself a month before you start getting concerned about your gain. The only way you would gain 5 actual pounds in a week is if you consistently eat 4000-5000 calories a day every day, which does not sound likely even if you are not tracking your food accurately.

    Ah, I see. Got it. Thanks for the clarity. I can see where this would be snarky for some people. Then again, it could be something else. Hmm. . . .

    I found it amusing, but I also recommend people go commando while here... Less bunching, twisting, and wadding. :laugh:

    ETA: OP, I suspect it is water weight from the increase in exercise, give it some time, but also make sure your calories are in line with deficit.
