Hi! everyone
I've a big problem here
I've been 100% HCRV for 8 days
I lost 3 kg already
but when I weight at my gym
My weight has gone down
but my fat mass is going up
the weight that lost is my muscle weight!!!
(I've been working out quite hard lately)
I don't understand how could it happens
Is it some fruit I have that has lots of fat in it?
Then what fruit???
I'm really confuse and need you advice now

@Hua,
What is your height? It is possible that you may not want to lose more weight as 60kg is perfect for some and underweight for others. Some body fat is necessary and healthy for emergency energy storage, to cushion organs and blows from falls, and for regulation of fat soluble vitamins such as vitamin D.
Give it time. I can take a few months for the body to detox and self regulate. Here are some thoughts for you.
When we detox, the body may store that in interstitial tissue and fluid until it can be expelled.
Big muscles are not always healthy muscles. Many times, people on SAD diets have streaks of fat in their muscle. Because you are doing a lot of exercise, your muscles are burning their local energy sources first. No worries. Soon you will have lean muscles and be lean as well.
You may be properly hydrated. Some of the tools used to measure fat mass were actually developed on SAD eaters and or dehydrated people. They are not necessarily calibrated to deal with proper hydration.
Give yourself one day a week for rest and repairs. Over exercising and over training can cause its own damage.
Eat low fat fruits and leafy greens.

Peace, PK
my height is 163 cm
and I used to be 53kg so 60 is fat for me
I thing HCLV is 80/10/10
so I don't need much green?
maybe I'm wrong
hahaha
Thanks
I'll add some green in my eating
i think you need to eat more veggies
but it's just few days in so i wouldn't worry
It's only been a week. Your body will probably go through an adjustment period. What was your diet like just before going hclv?
Greens are very important. You can easily get enough greens by blending them in a smoothie. Check out Green For Life for help on that.
I've also heard that BMI is basically useless.
Yes I eat salad someday
but not everyday
I'm trying to do most monomeal as possible
I had the same issue when i first started, but didn't find the cause of it, due to financial reasons, i had to quit and i restarted today (yay for kind people at the market giving me free stuff, 2/3 of my shopping was a gift)
Not sure if it could be by over exercising, cause from what i know, we got 3 energy sources
carbs, fat and protein, and they burn in that order.
When you've burnt all your carbs, you progress to burning your fat and if you overdo it, you go to your protein(muscles) because it's easier to break down protein than fat in emergency situations.
Not sure how you exercise, try doing light stuff and see how that goes.
