When I eat a lot in one day, my body gets sore?
If I eat a lot of calories, my body gets sore - my butt, stomach, legs, boobs, arms. Is it the fat accumulation from eating so many calories? I'm talking like, 2500-3000 in a day. Sometimes I can feel the soreness almost immediately after eating so much, and other times I feel it the next morning.
Does anybody else get this or have any idea what it is?
this is my two cents on this. additional calories causes increased cardiac output and increases thermogenesis - higher heart rate and higher body temp. you have sensory neurons (nerve cells) distributed throughout your body. higher proportions is some areas than others. increased blood flow body temp make these sensory neurons more sensitive than normal.
think of it in terms of inflamation - where you also have temp increase and increased blood flow. the area is much more tender than the rest of the areas not suffering inflamation. im not saying you are suffering inflamation throughout your body. but increased cals (especially if its not an everyday occurance) may manifest itself as these symptoms.
if it worsens consult your doc
Oh, also, it's not in the same spot every time. Sometimes it's just my butt, or just my stomach, or everything I said at once, and most of the time my neck, too.
And thank you for your input; can I tell if it's inflammed from the outside? Or does it increase in size? Because I feel like my body parts experience the soreness at the time are a little bigger when it happens too.
If your calories come attached to too much salt or sugar then you could be experiencing temporary fluid retention... If you're on the Weight Gain board to rectify being underweight temporary swelling seems to be a recurring theme. Do you notice dent-marks where tight clothing (socks/underwear) has been?
Another idea could be indigestion.... can cause pains in all kinds of funny places.
when i was gaining weight rapidly recovering from anrexia i noticed these exact same symprtoms. im a GUY AND I WAS S=WONDERING WHY MY BREAST WERE TENDER. if you keep eating this much ur body will get used to it.
My skin also became tender to touch when I ate a lot. I'm not sure of the exact reason, but it seems to be pretty common.
i definitely experience this. sometimes the soreness lasts a few days... no idea why.
thats bloating. happens to me like everyday
Good to know I'm not alone lol.
Eringo, no, it's definitely not my muscles; it's like, directly under or actually my skin that feels.. prickly and sore, almost like rug burn, but without so much burn?
And samgonzo, you get this feeling in just your stomach, or other places too? Bloating I thought just meant a protruding stomach.
