Gaining instead of losing

mizmandy14

Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone else gained weight when they started counting calories and working out. I'm doing the couch to 5k (C25K) and adding in cardio workouts on the off days. It's been three weeks and I've noticed that I've gained weight with not much of a difference in the way my clothes fit. I started this program to be more strict with myself but I'm getting frustrated.
In other words, I'm not a fan of delayed gratification lol.

Has anyone else had this happen?

I'm new so feel free to add me. I'll take all the support I can get

You may be underestimating your food &/or overestimating your burns. Weigh your food. Eat back half your exercise calories.
