Sorry for the long post but I must give context.I am 24 years old, 187cms 6'2 and since the age of 17 or so my weight hadn't moved from the 69-73kg range (152- 160lbs). I've always been the active athletic type that struggled to gain weight I guess because of my eating habits. But I didn't try really hard either because I've always liked my body very much. This situation of stability has recently changed tho.Recently I have made some lifestyle changes. I started an internship at a software firm and work there 9-2. My colleagues have the habit of going to have toast and coffee for breakfast everyday, and I have picked up the habit just to have a break from work even tho I ususally don't have a big breakfast. Work also drains a lot of energy and free time from me. I'm also in a volleyball team, in which I train 5 hours a week, and also do weight training 2 times a week.The rest of the time I use on completing my studies and hobbies.It has been 1 month since I joined the internship. Half into that month I noticed that my lifts started improving beyond my usual plateaus, and... also my weight. A week ago I hit 75kgs (165lbs), my personal ideal weight for athletic performance. I was joyous but also a bit shocked that my 6 year long stability had been broken. People have been noticing this. They say my arms are more muscular. And I was happy.Today, just one week later, I just weighed myself at 78.2kg. In one week I have gone up basically my whole range for my 6 years of college lifestyle. I was in utter shock. I feel scared for the projection. I don't wanna hit 80kgs. Beyond that point, everything from injury rate in sports to life expectancy gets shittier.Through these years I have:- Lived abroad for a year and cooked what I wanted- Smoked weed consistently for some time, severly altering my apetite- gone through the pandemicBut NEVER I went a pound over my range. What's going on anons? Have I lost the superpower of youth?
>>75466525>I don't wanna hit 80kgs.Why? You're 6'2, you can easily be that weight while being lean and muscular.
>>75466540I jump a lot in my sport. I have also some pride on my explosive force and high vert. I don't want to pull a Zion Williamson...
>>75466525>Smoked weed consistently for some time, severly altering my apetiteSounds like you're just eating too much.
>>75466826This smoking weed thing stopped more than a year ago. I've been completely sober of any substance including alcohol for half a year now. And only drink water and milk.I think its defo my apetite, but the weed is too far away in time to be the cause.
