    I've seen a lot of people report that they do, yes. I think it's because many people get very excited about limiting fats, which leads them to suddenly start eating lots of processed carbs, which will definitely block you up.

    It probably comes down to what you're eating. Are you getting enough fiber? MFP has the fiber goal set ridiculously low, so aim for 25-30 grams of fiber per day. Drink enough water.

    And activity helps to get the bowels moving too.

    Yes. I went out to eat last Friday. Filet with blue cheese, salad with blue cheese, baked potato, 2 drinks, bread. Then I ate a 1/2 pint of ice cream on Saturday. All of that didn't bother. But when we ate Taco Bell on Monday (fast food). My weight jumped up 3 lbs over night and my entire GI Tract has been messed up all week. (I also started heavy weight lifting this week. That could've caused a jump). I finally got to see a 1/2 drop this morning.

    Your body is used to healthy food and then all of a sudden you eat some "crap" and your body says "NO WAY. I DON'T WANT THIS ANYMORE". One advantage is you learn what you can and can't eat.

    Yup, this happens to me. I ate some, alright, too much cheese yesterday and I feel like a hot air balloon today! Yikes, it'll be a day or reading in the "library" for me!
