Is it the stress? |
For the last month and a half i have been gaining more and more weight...i'm 5'6...in feburary i weight in at 112 (which is kind of low but i lost it the heathly way) now i just weighted myself a couple hours ago and now i weigh 133! I don't really remember eating to much more then i usually do and i'm working out more then normel. But i've been through some stressfull times lately...can find it harder to lose weight and keep gaining it if you a under tons of stress? Even if you arent pigging out more then usually....please help...and if you have been in a sitution like this how did you get out of it? There could be many possible explanations or factors for this: - Since you were underweight, it is possible your body just readjusted itself. - Working out will increase your muscle mass, thus increase your weight, and muscles are heavy. - A medical condition preventing your system from processing energy intake properly. This could be an indication of malfunctioning of some organ, that may or not be sign of an infection. I would consequently advise you to weight yourself in two weeks around the same time of day and compare. If you continue gaining weight without an observable gain of muscle mass, you should go see a doctor. my weight gos up and down..no matter what i do i think it is stress Keep in mind, muscle weighs more than fat, so if your working out the weight gain could be caused by that. Also... you may not think your eating more than normal, but if your under stress, what "types" of foods are you eating. Are you eating your normal food items, or have they changed. Keep a daily journal of everything, food and drink that goes into your mouth. That will help determine if your stress eating and explain weight gain. Could be stress. I experienced something similar when my doc put me on a new asthma medication, gained 30! pounds in a few months. Got off the meds and stopped drinking soda, lost the weight in no time flat. If it is stress, try meditating, yoga, hot baths, massage, acupuncture, swimming, ect. Basically, try exercises that relieve stress. Stress can arise for a variety of reasons. Any change in our lives can be stressful. In dealing with stress, the lifestyle needs a complete overhaul. We should be placed on an optimum diet, and take regular exercise and adequate rest.
