Help! I started (for real) a couple of weeks ago. I've been eating all my calories (exercise too) and not going over. I also went from no exercise to gym going 3-4 times a week with cardio and strength training. I'm sad to say that my weight has gone up by a few pounds! Could this be from the exercise- some kind of water weight or lactic acid build up? Surely kicking my old bread heavy diet and couch sitting work-out plan should earn me some lb.'s right!
Help- don't want to loose my motivation... I want to see results!:noway:

You might be gaining muscle, which is heavier than fat. How are your clothes fitting?0
