[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You did not expect too see it on the scale?  If you knew muscle weighed more , where did you expect to see it.

Given you weigh so little, you may actually find that some of your clothes start to feel tight in certain areas as you gain a little muscle mass.  Do not worry, you will not bulk up.  Ypu will look better.  But when I was at a lighter weight for my body, weight lifting made me need to buy bigger clothes. It was not that I looked bigger or bulkier.  I looked great.  I looked thinner.  Clothes just fit different.  Since  you seem anxious about 2 pounds, I wanted to warn you.  [/quote]

She didn't gain muscle mass in 4 piddly weeks. It's HARD to grow muscle. She's seeing an increase in glycogen stores and water on the scale. [/quote]

This.  Even starting up a walking/jogging routine can lead to this because you are starting to build muscle in your legs/butt and your muscles need increased glycogen/water as your circulatory system branches out to keep your body fueled.[/quote]
