Feeling the struggle! Was out in injury for two months and gained 7 pounds. Back to teaching Jazzercise for almost three weeks and last Saturday I had managed to drop 4 pounds. I got on the scale and found I gained the 4 pounds back!!!! I am staying within my calories and I am burning a ton of calories when I work out (500-1200). I am sure it's just swollen muscles but it's stressing me out!!!

    You have to understand a body will naturally fluctuate. So calm down and take a step back from the scale, lol.


    Look at weight loss over a 4-6 week trend.

    I am a Jazzercise Instructor, so I will teach anywhere from 60 minutes class, to two classes that combine 90 minutes and once a week I do 2 hours. Plus when I practice new routines I will practice from 90 minutes to two hours.
