Most you’ve gained on scale from a cheat meal?

Just FYI, my weight returned to where I was the morning of the day I ate so high. So it took me 4 days. (Ate up Friday, back to starting weight Tuesday after eating at a deficit Sat-Mon.)

The most I have gone up was around 4 lbs and it usually takes me around 1 week to go back down. Wish it was faster to return to normal...but alas what can one do.

9 pounds ate a lot of deserts and sodium laden foods.

7 pounds. Every time I go on holiday I come back and my weight is way up between more calories, more salt, and retaining water from the flight if I took a plane. I used to FREAK out but now I know it'll be gone in a few weeks at most.

I prefer the term treat meal to cheat meal. I usually have at least a couple a month because I'm going out with friends, or I'm just particularly hungry that day. Eating a donut isn't cheating, just means I wanted one and it means I'm less likely to freak out and eat 8 donuts at once.

I'd need to look back over my data to be sure but off the top of my head I'd say probably 3-4kg so what's that like, 6.6-8.8lb.

That said it was gone less than a week later.
