Summary

Do you ever step on a scale and feel bad about yourself because you see an increase in your weight?
 
Well, you are not alone. 
 
But it is important for us to remember that when it comes to our weight, fluctuations are a normal part of our body's day-to-day changes. And, the most important thing to understand is this: Weight gain doesn't always mean fat gain.
 
Let us unpack weight gain in this episode of the Embrace Your Real podcast. We are going to dive into seven things that can trigger weight gain that have nothing to do with fat gain. And my hope that by the end of the episode, you will develop more compassion for yourself, your weight, and your body. 
 
 
What I discuss:
  1. Weighing yourself on different scales will trigger weight gain without gaining any fat.
  2. Focusing on daily fluctuations can trigger you to gain weight without gaining fat. 
  3. Your digestion can trigger you to gain weight without gaining fat. 
  4. Water retention can trigger weight gain without fat gain.
  5. Your menstrual cycle can trigger weight gain without fat gain.
  6. High-intensity activity can lead to weight gain without leading to fat gain.
  7. Lack of sleep can trigger weight gain that isn't fat gain.
