Time to scale

How long does it take for our food choices to show up on the scale....good or bad? For example, if I go way way over calories one day, how long would it take to see the rise in weight? Same with losses for super good days?

    I went way over last week and for a few days the scale went up a few pounds. By the end of the week I had lost that weight and another .6 lbs.

    there are posts on here about how one day doesnt count, but rather a whole week does. i think as long as you make healthy choices more often than not you will see a change on the scale.
