Ughhh

Ok, so I've been power walking for about 2months now and decided a couple weeks ago that I can start running. At the speed of a turtle but nevertheless running. Now I'm up 3lbs! Is this "muscle"? my monthly visitor has also been visiting a hell of a lot more often lately, once a month has turned into 3 weeks maybe skipping a day or two between visits. But I was still losing when this new phenomenon started, I think it's honestly because of the running!! Whatcha think?

Months 8-9 post op, I had a period every 2 weeks. Now it has gone back to normal. I have never ever had irregular periods in my life.

I think it is just a body adjust bump in the road.

It takes months to add actual muscle mass, and it's rare to add muscle mass during a weight loss period. You need a calorie surplus to add muscle mass.
