плато на весахВес стоит две недели: это плато или вода?

Вы соблюдаете дефицит калорий, записываете питание, стараетесь больше двигаться, но весы уже две недели показывают почти одну и ту же цифру. Возникает закономерный вопрос: похудение остановилось или результат временно скрывает вода?

Две недели без снижения веса находятся на границе между обычным колебанием массы тела и возможным плато. Делать вывод только по сегодняшней цифре рано. Сначала нужно посмотреть средний вес за неделю, изменения объемов и события, которые могли вызвать задержку жидкости.

Разберемся, как отличить плато от воды и что делать, если вес не снижается уже 14 дней.


Why did my weight increase after a workout?

How Long Does Post-Workout Weight Gain Last and When Should It Go Away

In the morning after a workout, the scale may show an increase of 300 grams, a kilogram, or even more. This can be especially concerning if you are maintaining a calorie deficit and expect to see a drop in weight.

Most often, this gain is not related to fat. After unusual or intense exercise, muscles recover, the amount of water and glycogen changes, and you may consume more fluids and food. All this is reflected on the scale more quickly than actual changes in fat mass.

You’ve calculated your calorie target, keep a food diary, and try not to exceed your set limit. A week passes, then a second, but the scale doesn’t show the expected results.
