I got my new road bike on Friday and had to take it on it's inaugaral ride. My husband and I rode 83+ miles on the W&OD in Virginia into DC and back. I weighed myself yesterday morning and then I weighed myself this morning - only to find a 1.8 lb increase in weight! I am about 25 lbs overweight and have been careful to watch my diet (I go to WeightWatchers) and have been slowly, but steadily losing weight (about 0.7-1.0 lbs/week). I hydrated well with water and Cytomax for the ride, ate a banana, Clif Bar, and a tuna salad wrap. Any explanations out there - I don't feel as though I am retaining and water.
Thanks!
