I gained weight?!
Last week, I weighed in at 122 lbs. Now I have been around 123-124ish. I have been following the plan and working out. Is the weight gain from muscle weight?? Is my body used to all my regular exercises? I would like to get down to 120 and then maintain that weight. Help anyone? :(
