Did I really gain that much in 2 weeks?

Less than a month ago I was 60kg and now the scale says I'm 62-63kg? I have been staying with my bf for the last 2 weeks and have indulged a bit, especially because of Easter. Did I really gain that much over those 2 weeks? Will it just come off as I return to my normal eating habits?

    Pretty sure 1kg is about the 31000kj mark. Did you over eat in those 2 weeks by 60-90k kj?

    Chocolate has a lot of kj but my guess is some weight gain plus some water weight. How did you indulge? Tasty salty foods like chinese?

    I had a big steak dinner once, some alcohol (1-2 beers every other night maybe? Though I drink alcohol in my normal routine anyway), maybe 1-2 easter eggs + a couple of bars, crisps and sometimes I had dessert after dinner.

    Yeah, it's possible. It's probably a lot of water from extra sodium, which shows up in fun food. Resume your regularly scheduled programming, and it will probably come off quicky.
