After a week of increasing my cardio and increasing my fiber I GAINED weight. I'm pretty sure it's water retention, because it's hot as fuck and my fingers feel swollen, so I don't know if I should just carry on and wait for the weather to cool or if I should change something up.
I think I'm going to switch from fiber capsules to a drink powder so I get enough fiber. I don't want to take 5 fiber pills multiple times per day.
It's just so deflating to work hard and see negative progress.
@Tfmonkey Fiber will saturate with water in your gut and form a thick sludge or gel, its like oatmeal sucking up water. slows down sugar absorption too. There is a natural sugar called Allulose, you can use instead of sugar, and it reduces the glycemic index of all other carbs and sugars you eat, it prevents them from being broken down into smaller sugars and absorbed.
@PordanJeterson @Tfmonkey muscle weight more than grease.
