Weight Distribution Issues
Hello. I'm fairly new to the weight lifting thing. I've had the FIrm tapes for awhile, but got in a car accident and was out of commission for awhile. I"ve been doing them again now for the past two weeks, about three times a week. I've also changed my eating habits for the better, ditched soda and sugar, and have also upped the water I drink.
I like what I see. When I'm in my skivvies, I can see more muscle definition, and cleaner lines in my profile. I'm ignoring the scale because I think it likes to flash arbitrary numbers at me, anyway. Last weekend I could easily fit into size six pants, no problem. Being that I was working out this morning, and feeling really good about it, I thought I"d throw those babies on. It always makes me feel good to know they fit...UNTIL..
This morning. They don't fit, even though the arbitrary lottery machine I step on every once in awhile says I weigh less. What is that?
I suspect, and I hope that it's a weight distribution issue. Maybe because of my eating and water as well as the cardio-weight mix of the Firm, my body has to rearrange itself. Is this a valid theory or am I just out of ideas?
This is freakin' me out because I really want to lose about ten pounds and gain some muscle definition, but it's like it's working backwards, or just not making sense at all.
Maybe this is a normal thing for people new to weight lifting? I"m not sure, and that's why I'm asking...
