How quickly do you lose muscle mass? I'm seeing a pattern with my weight. On weekends I rest and let myself have one cheat meal. Despite not working out and extra calories I lose 2-3 pounds and then Monday-Wednesday I gain or stay flat. By friday I'll drop 2-3 pounds again.

Can my weekend weight loss be lost muscle mass? It would explain why I gain once I get back to working out.

No, you body fluctuates in weight around 5 lbs a day sometimes, depending on several factors like when and what you eat. No way you drop muscle mass like that over the weekend, you'd be dead or Justin Bieber.

First night back in the gym started great, warm tingles all over the place. But then I got tired really fast. :-(

It'll get better.  Good job getting back.  I've known too many (including myself) who took time off and than it became a year or two...not so good.

 

Good job!

No.  Muscles don't work like that.  Muscle mass doesn't just go away.  Water in the muscles, may.  Atrophy takes a longer period.  If you're losing strength over the weekend than you need to check your diet and you just weren't that strong to begin with - sorry to burst your bubble.

No joke.  I wrestled in High School, was pretty damn good, too.  We would often check our weight like stupid kids and throughout the day we would watch ourselves gain and lose weight for no reason.  At all.  I lost 14 lbs. in one day when I was 5 lbs. overweight.  Turns out I was just holding some water and by the time of the match I was done.

Great workout yesterday.

 

I already had it in my mind I was going to splurge on something sweet last night. Went to the grocery store, I got chocolate chip cookies from the deli, hubby got oreos. Chocolate chip cookies weren't good for some reason! So i ate like a bazillion Oreos, which made me so sick that I threw up. 

 

Just thought I'd share that lovely little story with you guys.

Squats were tough today, too. Dang, I was only off 12 days! Feel like I've been set back a couple of months.

I've noticed if I miss 5 straight days it's a pain in the ass coming back.

Haha been there done that!

I always splurge on Sundays and sooooooometimes Saturdays too, depends how much cardio I did the previous week. But I've easily put away a bag of fudgee-o's or Oreo's on a Sunday as an appetizer, so don't feel bad. I literally try to eat as much crap as I can on Sundays so that I don't even want to look at junk food for the next week. Seems to work for me, I hammer cardio Monday and by Tuesday I feel fine again!

    • Seriously, this is the exact post that makes me lose my damn mind, because you can't separate Collegiate game from the NFL. You think college stats = NFL projections/ability The college game is littered with MONSTER stats from QB's who never make it past NFL training camps onto a roster.  I'm not saying Sanders is like that of course, but just because him and the offense put up huge numbers, doesn't mean he's a surefire elite NFL prospect. The fact that you can't or refuse to understand that, is why anything you say is severely flawed.  Bash me for my love of T-Mac, but you just can't separate college box score stats from NFL projections, which is just asinine.
    • Did anyone see, I believer it was from Cat crave blog, say Diana Russini is doubling down on her info that Bryce could be traded by the deadline? Maybe him starting is to try and up his trade value? 
    • Yes, NAU "shut him down" by literally triple teaming him on almost every snap, I don't care how good you are, when you're triple teamed and your QB is playing poorly and behind an OL that gives you all of 2 seconds to make a play, that WR isn't going to do anything that game unless your coaching staff schemes him up to get quick passes, which they didn't.   Our Arizona boards have been losing their poo all season over how bad the staff is using him and their play designs/calls.   And as I've said numerous times, QB's don't get mocked by draft grades, those same experts that had Young and Stroud at the top of those mock drafts also openly admitted they didn't have them graded that high, same as this year's class. Also as I've said numerous times, look at the position label or what they say about Hunter in those mock drafts, they almost all have him listed as CB and/or discuss him as a CB in their breakdown of him, because it's his better side of the ball and where he's more likely to play.
