Thanks...and actually I took today off. I finished my Masters course work back in December but I actually 'walked' today.

I don't have set days off. I usually workout 5-6 days a week and take one or two off depending on my schedule.

Did you increase water consumption?

 

[Jodi]

I wouldn't doubt that it's muscle, water and maybe a little fat. You need to remember that your diet wasn't feeding your LBM before hand, your metabolism is resetting itself and you are holding water from that. Give it a bit more time and instead of stepping on the scale, do measurements

 

[buff_tat2d_chic]

I decided to go back to this old thread. It has a lot of old info in it for me.

I just started back to the gym about 2 weeks ago. I am all discombobulated and can't remember my workouts because it was so long ago. I am reviewing my notes and journals and it's coming back to me. For now, I'm getting to the gym and getting in some cardio and some machine weights until I'm "warmed up" and I have time to make a good plan. I should have my shit together by the weekend.

Hi Buff, just returned to this site after many years away, refinding my way, hoping to return to the fitness arena after a 12 year hiatus next year. All the best with your training goals!!!
