I competed in 4 competitions over the past 8 weeks, and have been in a calorie deficit since December.
My last competition was on Saturday. I had my post-show meal on Saturday night (nothing crazy ... a salmon burger and a salad with a glass of wine). Since then, I have slowly upped my calorie intake in a reverse diet. I am at 1500-1600 calories right now and have been doing 40 minutes of cardio every day.
And yet I am currently 10 pounds heavier than I was on Saturday, just four days ago! I'm quite concerned. I *know* it can't all be fat ... and I'm telling myself it is mostly water weight, but still, I already don't like the way I look with the 10 extra pounds in such a short time.
Is there something I can do to correct this? Or to get rid of that extra water weight so I don't freak out on the scale?
