sup y'all,
went down hard two sundays ago - 2 minor fractures in my pelvis. now, at the time of the fracture(s), i was doing some pretty heavy training averaging about 2000 kj per day of training + 500 kj of commuting so i was eating probably 4000+ cals per day. basically overnight my energy output went to 0 as i was barely able to get around for a week or so. i've tried to decrease my caloric input but its hard going from 4000 --> ~1800 overnight and i probably was eating more like 3000. in this 2 week span, i've gone from about 141 to nearly 149 lbs. now, i am not TOO concerned as i know it will come off once i rev up the machine again (actually have been able to get on the trainer for some 1 hr spins the last 3 days...) but do you think i actually gained 8 lbs in not even 2 weeks?
does anyone have any similar (hopefully humorous) stories that they can share of sudden weight gain so i can feel a little validated? :)
