🌻OVERNIGHT WEIGHT-GAIN🌻
You may get dishearten and frustrated when you see the scale value go up over night even though you are eating healthy and exercising. Is it possible overnight? If you have ever found yourself asking this question, you’re not alone. It’s absolutely possible to gain 2 to 3 kgs overnight! It’s not fat and it’s totally temporary. Let’s find out if overnight weight gain is a thing.
6 main reasons:
1️⃣Stress, increased cortisol levels can lead to water retention.
2️⃣Lack of sleep
3️⃣High sodium (salt) intake can cause your body to retain water.
4️⃣Alcohol intake, alcohol dehydrates the body and compels it to hold on to water leading to water retention.
5️⃣New gym routine, you may notice slight weight gain as you begin to build muscle mass
