Try not to get discouraged. When you increase the intensity of your workouts and you get sore muscles, you can usually assume those muscles are hanging on to added fluids. This is how they sort of "protect" themselves while rebuilding. I know it's depressing when you know you're doing everything "right" and the damn scale doesn't reflect that! Keep your head up - you've done an amazing job so far already!

My back is incredibly sore- like can hardly bend over, pick up my kids, put on my pants...its been getting worse. Im feeling very defeated.

Are you making sure that you put at least one or two rest days in every week where you do nothing? These are just as important as the workouts for healing and muscle growth.
