Lifting and It's Consequences:

So over the past 3 weeks I have been in a routine of running 3 days a week and lifting 3 days per week. I have also increased my caloric intake from 2,000 calories per day to 2,500 calories per day.  What I have noticed is that my weight has gone up from 274 to 277 (as of this morning) At first I might think, Aw crap I must be eating to much again.  But I look at my fitness pal and it doesn't paint that picture.  The only real difference in what I have been doing over the last 3 weeks is that I am now lifting heavy 3 days per week and I believe that I am gaining some muscle mass.  So I am going to continue to monitor my workouts and running and eating and see what continues to happen.
