so for the past 4 days i have been going to spinning class first thing in the morning...i feel like i should be healthier, but i get bloated and feel fat for the rest of the day. also, i have gained weight since last week. i am drinking water, and sleeping better/not eating a lot at night. today, i did not work out because there was no class this morning, and i feel thin and fit into my clothes a lot better. does this happen to anyone else? i am losing my urge to work out because it just does not make me feel like i am losing weight.... whats the deal?

thanks everyone! happy friday!!

    I do 3 a week usually (doing one at 6:30 tonight), I gotta eat something before it and I feel great afterwards, and let your body recover. Make sure you are eating heathy, because under intense physical activity your body needs fuel, I made the mistake of going to a 5:45am on an empty stomach and could barely move my legs. I dont have an idea why a spin class would make you feel bloated

    some people, like my sister, experience edema when they first start working out. here's an article about:

    hope that helps you. My sister's body got used to it all about a week to 10 days into it. she still jokes about shocking her system!

    Your muscles are probably in shock from all the exercise. Holding onto all the water they can. So today when you don't workout it starts to release that.
