Would you notice if you gained 10kg

I used to weigh myself everyday around December time and then near the end I forgot about it until yesterday when I weighed myself and I seem to be like 8-10kg heavier than I last remember.

I don't feel particularly different and nor did I notice this, would you notice if you put on like 10kg in like 2.5-3 months?

No I just tend to stay at home so less exercise I guess.

Could be the case, I used to have very low body fat percentage and I don't think I gained pure fat so I don't think it's having a major effect.

I feel obese after a McDonald's, of course you would feel 10kg.

Do you think it must be an error in my scale then?

Perhaps. Are your scales level?

I definitely noticed when I put on 8kg but it was even more obvious when I lost the 8kg and realised how much I'd been overlooking things...

I'm 10kg heavier due to a-levels making me tired all the time. I notice it as a freediver as my ability to hold my breath for ages is going away :/ 4.5 minutes down to 3 now (static dry, no mamilian dive reflex for help)
Definitely, but I think it depends on your size already (height and weight).
Definitely. I'm very slim and my weight is pretty constant so I'd notice.

At my height an extra 10kg would make me quite fat...so yeah I think I'd notice. :tongue:

I think it was actually more like 6 kg when I think about it, would this still be noticeable?

I am between 5 foot 5 and 6, I think maybe taller.

I was around 42-45 kilos depending on the week, now I am 51 kilos.

You'd definitely be able to tell in the mirror. Ive put 1kg on this week which is quite a rapid gain in weight and I can tell by the definition around my chest.
