Description: Have you noticed some initial weight gain when you first start a program? Shannon discusses that beginner weight gain is commonly swelling, not necessarily fat gain, and probably not something to worry about. This podcast is NOT a weight loss podcast, nor is Evlo a weight loss program. But it is important to understand how our body may respond to exercise.
