Is it possible to gain weight while going to the gym?
I have been going to the gym on a regular basis for the last year and a half and I was able to maintain my weight...then out of nowhere I gained 5 pounds! I swear I weighed myself last week and I was 5 pounds lighter!! How could that happen! I have not changed my eating habits or pigged out on junk food in the last two weeks or anything!

Re: Is it possible to gain weight while going to the gym?
yes! because i lost weight by not going!
muscle weighs more than fat. if you are pumping even just a little dont expect to lose weight- however youll become more toned.
it also could be pms - i gain 5-7 pounds a month and i weigh 130!
funny, right?

That happened to me and it was from pms. Five days later - of eating MORE and I was back to my normal weight - 5lbs less. Could be that.

Re: Is it possible to gain weight while going to the gym?
Yes you can gain weight, because your gaining muscle, it will balance out in the end. Plus you'll see that your still losing inches, which means you've lost fat!
