The Numbers Are Supposed to Go the OTHER Way

Today’s Weigh In: 306.8 poundsNext Goal: 299.8 pounds
Pounds to Go: 7.0 pounds
Days to Go: 5

Up a pound and a half. I don’t know what to say or how to react here.

My nutrition was spot on yesterday. I drank plenty of water. I went to the gym and worked my way through everything (although I’m going to go through a week of 4×5 sets to ease back into my normal 4×6 routine). I pushed hard. I even finished up with my dumbbell swings at the end of everything.

And today I wake up a pound and a half heavier.

My only thought at this point is that I must have really worked my muscles over (I’m really feeling it in my quads, hammies, traps, and biceps this morning), and so I must be retaining some water – a lot of water – while my muscles rebuild themselves.

Sigh.
