My jeans are tighter through the hips and thighs. It's possible I have put on a little fat weight because my waist is a little thicker than it was last year ... hmmmm... I'm working out harder and more often, so maybe I am eating more than I realize to compensate ....??? Also, refined carbs that I consume other than during or immediately after exercise seem to cling to me like gorilla glue --- very frustrating! I might be eating a little more of them thinking that last night's intense gym workout means I can have an extra treat today. :-( Otherwise, I am fairly restrictive and people comment on how "good" I am. I also eat a lot of nuts, my favorite go-to snack. But again, I surely must have more muscle mass than before, and a higher metabolic rate, so I'm at a loss.....
