Puffy face? Puffy body? Puffy mood? 😩 In this episode, we get into why you feel swollen—especially after a big workout, a salty meal, or adding creatine to your supplement stack.

Let’s clear the confusion between water retention, swelling, and inflammation—and why they’re not the same thing. I’ll also answer:

  • Why your weight goes UP after a long hike
  • Whether creatine makes you “smooth” or “swole”
  • How to feel less puffy, faster
  • Why your cycle might be making it worse

This is one for anyone who's ever stared at the scale in confusion. You’re not broken—your body’s doing its job. 💪
