Am I doing something wrong?

    Hi, I am new here so don't really know how this works, but I've been really confused about some weight and thought it couldn't hurt to ask for some opinions. I am a 25 yearold female that's 5ft and 110 lbs. After going from very overweight to being underweight (due to lupus complications) I have been mainting a healthy for about 6 months. After getting an ok from the doctor I began running again about a month and a half ago. I run 1hr at 6.5mph, 6 days a week. As for food, I eat between 1500-1700 calories a day. Since I began running again I've gained weight and I am almost positive it is not muscle! I am not trying to weight, just simply maintain. What am I doing wrong that Im gaining? Any feedback or advice would be very appreciated!!!!

    I have a question for you, why the links to a 3rd party site? Is this a mistake or am I going to ban you for spamming?

    It's probably fluid.

    How much weight have you gained?

    How do you know that it's not muscle?

    What is your diet like?

    For a start dont panic.

    Post up your diet if you can and we can have a look

    Are you taking steroids for the lupus? I have some familiarity with the illness and it can cause a lot of water retention. And thumbs up for getting out to exercise so much.
