Hey.. In 3 days of eating whatever I had in sight (plz don't tell me I was wrong, I was restrictive, and blah blah, because I know).. What I wanted to ask is.. can you retain water in abdomen and thighs ? They are jiggly and my thighs appear MUCH bigger..

Please answer..

    I think so. Water weight general spreads everywhere, I'd think. But it also disappears easily, so it makes no sense to worry about it.

    What you SHOULD be worried about is what's causing your binge eating. Please don't ignore such an issue because the longer you ignore it the worse it'll get in the long run.

    Well, I can tell you that when I ate a huge amount for my birthday, it only took about a week to lose the weight again.

    Depending how big the binge was your gain will be a combination of water and fat.

    And if you know why you went wrong and why you binged please use it as a reason to re-evaluate what you are doing.

    A calorie deficit is only useful if you can maintain it.
