Down 225lbs
San Diego, California
Gained 4 lbs this week and old me would have completely panicked. I would’ve slashed calories, added an extra hour of cardio, and run myself straight into the ground trying to force the scale to move.
The reality? Work was brutal, stress was high, and my CNS was completely fried. That 4 lb jump isn't fat—it's stress, inflammation, and fatigue holding onto water.
My coach gave me the smartest play: back off to 80% intensity, let the nervous system catch up, and protect the baseline. Sometimes taking your foot off the gas is the only way you actually finish the race. Trying to out-work a fatigue wall won't make you progress faster—it just burns you out.
Smart training over emotional panic every single time.
