Yesterday I ate a total of 7000 calories at 9 pm how long does it take for the fat to physically show up on my body? :( I feel an upset tummy and so mad at myself because I also had 21000 calories over the weekend and it's only Wednesday what can I do?

    STay mad and it won't be long before you stuff yourself again and the fat will be real.


    What you need to do is go about your weightloss in a realistic way. If you try to starve yourself you will always end up binging like you've done. That's all i'm going to say right now because i've said this stuff so many times.

    If you are really young, i can excuse your mistake but i'm seeing older people who've been dieting for years keep making this same mistake over and over and never learn.

    I'll say it once. Don't restrict your calories too severely and eat nutritious food. Avoid hunger.

    Every day is a new day. You can't undo the past. Put it behind you. Consider if there's something going on in your life that is triggering this and get some support to deal with it if need be.

    It takes about 2 days for excess food to turn into fat. If it made you sick, you might not absorb all of it, but I wouldn't count on that. You could try to exercise more and eat less for the rest of the week, but probably better to work on changing your habits to something better.
