My brother Brian is a personal trainer, I asked about why I was gaining weight after doing an intense workout and he helped me out. Oddly enough, he never answered my question, but oh well. Instead he took a gander at what I was eating and what I've been doing for exercise. Surprise, surprise, I haven't been getting enough protein in. He also helped me look more closely at the nutritional labels too. A few of the foods I eat regularly are high in carbs, which isn't necessarily a bad thing- I need carbs just like anyone else, the problem is that most of the carbs are coming from sugar. And on top of that, I wasn't getting protein in all of my meals which is part of my problem.
I'm glad he can help! Hopefully now with a better handle on my nutrition and armed with a new workout plan things will get going.
