I’m so sorry that happened! People fucking suck. XxSo I just got verbally abused in public for the first time in years. An old woman looked me up and down and went "you need to go on a diet." It upset me a bit but now I'm like, and what? She was homeless and the woman walking in front of me had just refused to give her change so think I got the brunt of it. Some miserable hag doesn't get to make me feel shit about the body I'm working hard to make healthier. Also reminded me of a gang of lads saying I should put my tree trunk thighs away when I was an underweight teenager. Haters gonna hate no matter what you look like.

You need to consume 3500 excess calories to gain 1lb. If you suddenly gain a few lbs overnight it's usually due to water retention or maybe having a big meal or maybe not going for a poo! If you're consistently gaining a few lbs it's probably fat and not water.Am curious to know how you can tell if you have water weight or not, I'll often hear people say they gained a pound or two but its fine cause its water weight, how do they tell, its it cause they lose inches but not weight?
I think it’s more what you’ve done the day prior if your weight is up on the last time you’ve weighed in. For example a heavy workout can cause water retention (your body does it to repair muscle) or if you’ve eaten really salty food. A sudden increase in weight after these things (if you’ve otherwise stuck to plan) is more likely to be water retention than gaining 2lbs of fat, if that makes sense?Am curious to know how you can tell if you have water weight or not, I'll often hear people say they gained a pound or two but its fine cause its water weight, how do they tell, its it cause they lose inches but not weight?
I can normally tell either in my stomach or my face tbh. But also...I just wouldn't stress about gaining 1-2lbs anyway. I mean, I get when you're trying to lose weight gaining 1 lb can feel devastating if you've tried hard all week, but there's so many factors that influence it. Eating a salty meal, not going to the loo, where you are on your cycle if you have periods, if you've done a lot of exercise and especially weights, for me I gain weight every single time I don't get enough sleep too and I suffer badly with insomnia so there's no point weighing myself when I've had a bad night's sleep, you might've drank a bit more water the day before or something. I do think weighing yourself every day helps with this worry because when you see the patterns and how your body responds to certain factors you panic less about 1-2 lbsAm curious to know how you can tell if you have water weight or not, I'll often hear people say they gained a pound or two but its fine cause its water weight, how do they tell, its it cause they lose inches but not weight?
I did a workout on Tuesday night, and yesterday I drank LOADS to compensate for the amount of sweating I had done. This morning, I am 2lbs heavier than yesterday. There is no way it is physically possible for me to have gained 2lbs in fat in 24 hours when I was in calorie deficit. Therefore, I know logically it must be water. In the next day or two it will come off and I expect I will show a couple of pounds off.Am curious to know how you can tell if you have water weight or not, I'll often hear people say they gained a pound or two but its fine cause its water weight, how do they tell, its it cause they lose inches but not weight?
Try it with pineapple juiceThat sounds so good!! I usually just slow cook it in a bit of apple juice.
I had the same problem, barely had symptoms but got that knawing pain in the ribs that happens when I'm starving and just went on a food rampageI've gained a pound this week. I an disappointed, but I have just tested positive and over the last 2 days I've drank about 8 litres because my throat is so sore!
I've also read so many people who say they had big losses during COVID. Well, I haven't stopped eating for 2 days, so its doubtful in my case! Lol
