You’re eating less than before, but your weight is still going up.
You’re probably underestimating how much you’re eating and aren’t actually in a calorie deficit.
Eating less than before doesn’t automatically mean you’re eating fewer calories than your body burns.
Your portions might still be larger than you realise, or cooking oil, snacks, drinks, and small bites throughout the day could be adding up.
Fat gain happens when you consistently consume more calories than your body burns. But a sudden increase on the scale doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve gained fat. Water retention, constipation, and other temporary changes can increase your weight.
Start by tracking your food intake and morning weight for a couple of weeks. Look at your average weight trend rather than reacting to individual readings.
If your average weight keeps rising, review your overall diet before cutting calories further.
Don’t guess how much you’re eating. Measure it, check your weight trend, and adjust accordingly.
