Hiya Cathe! I hope the boys and DH are doing well, and you're all enjoying the arrival of spring!! I'm hoping you can shed some light on my dilemma ..
In an effort to tighten up more before bikini season, I have lowered my calories slighty (about 100 less per day) and have increased my workout time from about 4 cardio hours per week, to about 6 hours, 2-3 sessions of which include about 20-25 minutes of interval training (while still keeping with lifting 4 days a week and hitting each muscle group twice.) While I haven't gained weight and my measurements appear to be about the same, everything on my just looks 'bigger', and not in a good way! I feel 'flabbier'. Do you have any idea why this is? Am I gaining weight from working out more??
TIA!
Nicole
