Why The Scale Goes Up I Why You Gain Weight Even Though You Diet And Exercise

[@gelicamaria225]

Amazing content! It took everything not to drop this comment mid video, I appreciated it so much! in the past the scale used to rule my every emotion, but when I really started implementing CD, I told myself I was going to look at the scale as just a form of data! Exactly what you said! And i would not let it dictate my emotions for the good or the bad. I weighed myself everyday , wrote it down , even tracked when my period started , one day I would drop 3 pounds the next I was up for a few days then I would go down but ultimately the trend was always going downward SW168- CW156 if I hadn't tracked everyday I would have never seen that, I learned so much. Thank you for your content! Its much appreciated!

[@ericrobertsfitness]

You are fucking amazing

[@lily-rf9pj]

Omg you saved me! I was so down and irritated this morning after weighting myself. Thank you soooo much for this video!!!

[@connectwithanandsuresh]

This video is 3 years old but still so relevant. I was about to give up my weight loss journey due to everyday spike but you saved my fitness journey man. Million thanks to you.

[@renadavis9838]

Thank you so much. My weight was fluctuating even though I was dieting, exercising and intermittent fasting I was so frustrated. I'm staying motivated and keep pushing forward not paying attention to the scale so much

[@Scorpalicious_1111]

This video still giving 3 years later. You could not have explained any better...THANK U MY FRIEND!!!

[@daveclaude1412]

This is helping me. I have always focused on the scale and these last two weeks I’ve been on it. I at some rice last night and gained two pounds. I was ready to give up. Thanks for this b

[@kiskun3]

I’m watching this video because when I stepped on the scale it was higher than normal

[@shuntegaines3475]

This info has helped me. I was feeling discouraged for a minute. Thanks for sharing this information. Love the shirt and color!!!

[@ericrobertsfitness]

makes me so happy Shunte :) thank u :)

[@vickihart5317]

Love the shirt and this location is better than the couch! 💙

[@ericrobertsfitness]

You are the best!!!!!

[@selinadixon71]

Yes this is happening to me. I have started weight training 3 days a week and walking every day and I’m gaining weight even though I am definitely in a calorie deficit. I’m trying to condition myself to do the 75 hard challenge after the holidays.

[@ruthkan9338]

so true. And esp for women, water retention is so prevalent according to when we are in our cycle. During my period, I still eat at calorie deficit, and the scale says I gained 2kg + but then 3-4 days later i lose 4kg

[@melissajones9652]

Thank you! I’ve been working out more and staying within my calories and the scale was going up. I was ready to give up! But now I’m going to stick it out!

[@tarahannhealthylifestyle2802]

I just started to follow you and you open my eyes to measure everything. I was using 1/2 to measure my oats that was wrong. 2 silce of bread is said 180 calorie that 56grm but when I weighted it it was that for 1 slice.

[@wanda9812]

Great video! I'm going to try all your suggestions

[@asharamlall8668]

Mr Roberts thank you so much for sharing your information with us. I started following you on tik tok and watched all your KZbin videos and with your help I've lost 10lbs/4.6kg from 01/06 to 02/06. Blessings to you for sharing your knowledge.

[@reneebrody5877]

I agree with weighing everyday! And i do measurements about every 2 weeks. This has helped me immensely 😊

[@maritzalorenzo8733]

Great info!! I'm one of those that hates to weight my self cause the numbers don't go down that much!! But I do see progress!!🙂 Thank you for giving us so much advice!! You're the best!❤ Love the shirt, it looks great on you!!💪

[@ericrobertsfitness]

You are amazing ❤️❤️

[@mamawarrior]

I was shattered today when I went to the Dr. I weighed more than I ever have. But have been working out for 3 1/2 moths!!!

[@MJWife07]

I know this is old but What about your diet? You have to be in a calorie deficit to lose weight.

[@napturalgoddess6602]

I needed to hear this. I’m down 50lbs! Thank you for all your info

[@genisiAMR]

Rocking the shirt! 👏🏽💪🏽 thanks for the content! 😌

[@ericrobertsfitness]

thanks for watching :)

[@VirginiaJimenez-gs3px]

In my case, a heavy leg day, high sodium/high carb meal the night before and my period. They make bloated like a balloon. But I know it's all temporary so yeah, this guy is dropping gems.

[@catherinetropiano8049]

Definitely going to start weighing in everyday, wish I didn’t listen to everyone saying once a week. Yesterday was my first month in a CD and I’m down -8lbs. I stopped comparing myself to others when I see they’re losing 20 lbs their first month on a CD. It can be discouraging thinking I’m doing something wrong when I’m not. Everyone’s different... I take pictures once a week and I see a difference for sure. I also feel better knowing you have to eat so many extra calories in order to gain one pound of body fat. My CD is 1,650 and ate about 2,200 cals one day and thought I’d be gaining body fat but I know now it takes way more than that. This makes me feel so much better, thanks again for another helpful and motivating video:)

[@ericrobertsfitness]

this makes me so so so so happy

[@VictoriaPauuvale]

thank u so much Sande :)

[@RandomHuTaoSimp]

I really appreciate and love your context, but the "alot of HIIT cardio" was a blanket statement so that needed context. If you do it correctly and you do it maybe 1 to 2 times a week, actually it will not increase cortisol as much compared to strength training and low intensity cardio

hi ☺️ can i ask you what do you think about this? my BMRI is about 1470 and my TDEE says i need about 2200 calories, does that mean i need to eat 1700 if i wanna lose weight?

[@marijanamiskov]

also i use to eat 1500 kcal and my metabolism slowed down... i work out 6 days a week and when i started eating 2000 kcal scale started going down finally!

[@charlesa1234]

i have a question, say an individual gained 2-3lbs during a weekend cheat meals. if that person resumes his diet and exercise for the rest of the week, how many days before his body flushes the temporary weight of water weight just he just gained?

I do have a question; I fuel at least 1 hr prior to lifting in the afternoon. I have followed your advice by listening to all KZbin, etc. why am I pretty much tanked after my workout.? fuel-1/2cup of cereal w/1 scope of protein -pre workout. but after 45-1 hr I am tanked? I WORKOUT 4 times a week. weight training. and low intensity cardio. Could I be using too much protein for my pre workout? May too slow release in the tummy? Ugh hate tanking out-drained.
