Anyone else bloated as hell and weight through the roof right now? 🤣
Have you considered its not all the takeaways you’ve been smashing but actually the weather!!
Hear me out…
📛 Inflammation
Okay so think of it like this, your knees, ankles, shoulders, and all that s**te, all have a gel like fluid surrounding them to help lubricate the joint and allow it to move freely.
When it gets really hot the thickness of this fluid can change, bringing in additional water weight caused by the inflammation. So don’t worry if you look like the Michelin man right now, it will fk off soon I promise.
💧Water
You’re sweating loads at the moment yeah ?
I mean if I’m being honest I am sweating like Josef Fritzl on an episode of MTV cribs.
If your genitalia area is any resemblance of mine right now then you fu***ng know what I mean right? 😆
Any how, all this s**t will cause you to be more thirsty than usual.
If you’re thirsty then you are dehydrated.
And if you’re dehydrated your body’s response will be to retain water as back up. ( so it doesn’t fking die )
To fix this ... just drink more water! making sure you’re fully hydrated.
☀️Sunburn
If you burn and look like drumstick lollypop right now then your body will cause an inflammatory response .
( haha fyi I feel like my body causes an inflammatory response when you guy’s don’t track properly )
Because the body is trying to release toxins at a high rate, this causes the kidneys to overload. When both of those little fkrs get stressed out it will cause the body to store water in other areas until they get their s**t together. Bring on the cankles
🧂Sodium
If you’re smashing BBQ’s then your sodium intake will be through the roof. Sodium ain’t the devil, but a big increase in sodium levels will result in water weight following it. Water always follows sodium.
🙂 Now all in all, as-long as you’re following your calories you’re still losing fat. Just with all this additional WATER WEIGHT ... you’re gonna be 3-7lbs heavier on the scales.
All you need to know is that when the temperatures drop the water weight will disperse with it.
Don’t fall off plan, don’t think you’ve messed up, stay super focused!
Just use your logic, and you’ve got this.
Times like this you find out who’s going all the way.
