Is watch your sodium, translation for that sucks to be you

so, this weekend I ate terrible Fri, Sat, Sun. Lots and lots of carbs:french toast (18+ slices), 8 or so 20 oz sodas, 3-4 ice cream cones, ice cream floats, pudding, 3-4 rolls, 5 slices of pizza, 6+ slices of turkey bacon, all i can remember, and dropped a few pounds from where my weight has been staying. (not a new low)

I know my sodium would have been so high, lots of carbs vs protein, lots of sugar

Yes, I shocked my system (for sure), maybe cleaned the pipes (lots of crap in, lots of crap ***. sorry), I did not log everything (did not care) just large estimate , and weight dropped. Yes, I am sure most of the calories were burned as very busy cub scout campout with lots of thunderstorms.

Is my body saying give more carbs, sodium is not as important as I have thought, more fluids, more food, but the complete opposite made me drop weight of what I have been doing. Used real eggs, real powdered sugar, syrup, had tons of sugar in sodas.

Ideas of which way to go??? Should I do a "blowup intake" day once a week? Tried to stay very true to diet calorie numbers since Jan 1. Had very few overage days maybe 10.

Or the weight loss devils just wanted a good laugh and make me question the weight loss process even more.Lololol

All of the watch your sodium, lower sugar content, protein increase, etc, etc. Did not give the results of: pig out on "crap."

You're talking about a weekend. Doing that consistently is going to have adverse effects. I would really research your goals and the way to go about them before doing that every weekend. Especially your stress levels. If you're stressing a lot about the weight loss, it's probably working against you.

I personally wouldn't do it every week, maybe one a month or something. Just don't watch what you eat so carefully. This can be a stressful thing to do and every so often you might need a break. I personally can't do that, because eating junk for me is a chain reaction. It just keeps happening.

I think variety is important, and part of that is having some leeway. I wouldn't recommend eating like that once a week though. That is just a lot of really unhealthy food.

Ig you're going to try and yo-yo your intake some to experiment and see how it affects you, try it. But eat more calories from real, whole foods.

And as an aside....this was a cub scout event, and this was the food being consumed, with childhood obesity becoming epidemic in this country?

No that was what I ate, not the kids.
