[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After losing a lot of weight and maintaining for a while, I started regularly incorporating weights and strength training into my other workouts (more cardio focused) 3x a week. I've noticed that the scale is now regularly measuring me 3-4lbs up from where I've hovered. It shouldn't bother me, but it does, especially knowing the work I went into to lose a lot of weight (roughly 1/3 of my entire body weight!). I don't think it's fat. I do feel like I look slightly more muscular. My clothes are not tight. But I do appear to be gaining weight. How do you learn to not get down by the number on the scale?[/quote] OP give us some numbers here. How much did you weight when you started losing weight? How much did you weigh when you started strength training? Has your diet changed at all? Also, did you take some body measurements?[/quote]
