Anybody else completely lose their *kitten* and eat everything today? I've lost about 8 lbs but I just had surgery and haven't been able to work out all week. Tomorrow I'm also probably gonna go balls to the wall and eat everything because it's Christmas dinner. Just wondering if this is is going to make me gain back all 8 lbs? I'm gonna start again on Monday and I'm gonna be cutting hard and in a huge deficit. Anybody else going through the same thing? It's like I go crazy because I messed up once and then I'm like well why not go crazy the whole day?

    I wouldn't worry about it. 8 x 3500 = 36,000 calories. That's a *sloth*load. Did you eat that much over maintenance?

    Yeah, there is a good possibility that this is at least partly water weight rather than all adipose tissue. The fix for that is getting back to your usual eating plan and drinking plenty of water to help flush out excess sodium.
