Did I gain 3 lbs by eating 3000 clean kcals in a day? Of course not. And I knew the scale would jump...but 3 fricking lbs? Anyway...I know I suggest weighing everyday because it keeps you honest. But at the same time don't get discouraged when you see gains like this.



This is my biggest thing right now...trying to constantly remind myself that no matter how much it sucks, our bodies fluctuate with weight from a day to day basis. That pound difference from yesterday to today isn't because I ate more than I should have or because I ate my dessert at 10pm, but just because...human body at work?

280 / 173.8 / 165

Been eating pretty clean (but a lot) for the last few weeks while training. Running a half marathon on Sunday morning, so this Saturday will be the first sober Saturday for me since... since I can remember. I will be carb loading, though, and indulging in quite a few beers once I cross that finish line Sunday morning.

Exactly. Even if I ate the 10,500 kcals necessary to gain three pounds in a day...my body would have simply passed most of it.

Daily weighing is good for those on a mission like me. But you can't obsess over the day to day. Just use it to look at the overall trends.
