💥BOOM!💥
Back in ketosis and back down BELOW my starting weight by a couple pounds.
Last week my weight was between 133-135 lbs. Sunday night after cheat day got up to 138.4 lbs. This morning back down to 131.2 pounds. 7 pounds lost in 4 days? Not exactly. A lot of the weight gain was just from the extra food and water retention from eating all the carbs on cheat day. And because I've been fasting for 2 days, my digestive system is empty so today when I start eating food, my weight will go back up slightly. So it's truly only a couple pounds of fat loss, which is perfect.
How do I know I didn't just lose water weight? Because my scale shows hydration levels and I'm actually more hydrated today than I was over the last 3 days. How do I know I didn't lose muscle? The scale also shows muscle mass which remained unchanged (actually went up slightly).
Cheat day erased and a couple pounds of fat and toxins gone, feeling good and ready to get back on track. Mental and physical reset!
Why am I sharing this? Because metabolic flexibility is important, and weight on the scale is not always the best indicator of what's going on in your body.
