I just completed week two of Turbo Fire and when I weighed in I was up a pound. Its so frustrating because I'm eating better and getting awesome workouts in. Has anyone had this problem?

    I had this EXACT problem!! I just weighed in today (end of week 2) and I gained one pound. However, I think mine might be because it is the TOM for me. I usually freak out over a gain but it always goes back down pretty quickly, and then I keep moving in the right direction. Don't be discouraged, keep going!

    This happened to me the first week of turbo also, it is discouraging but maybe next week's weigh in will be a bigger loss than you thought. Hang in there it will start melting off.

    Muscle is more dense then fat...fat just happens to take up more "space" then muscle...you are building muscle with exercise...take a look at what you are eating...you may have to tweak it a bit to ensure more fat loss..

    I'm on week 3.

    First 5 day inferno - lost 4 pounds.
    Then stayed the same for week 1, gained 1 pound week 2, and another pound for week 3. I am guessing 1 of 2 things happened:
    Either I just lost water first and that was not to last, or I am gaining muscle now.

    I can definitely see the difference in definition. My body is a lot firmer. It is weird because it’s hard facing the non-changing scares (or even worse, the increasing number), but I am going to stick it out and just see what happens. I’ve been told I look skinner, so I’m hoping I’m loosing fat.

    BTW, I’ve used my digital scales to measure fat percentage, but that changes every day so I don’t relay on it.
