Gone up five pounds?

Options
I went up by three pounds after eating a big frozen pizza as a cheat meal the other day, and today after I ate Taco Bell I went up by 1.5 pounds. Is it water weight and how long will it take to go away if so?

    It takes a 3500 calorie surplus to gain a pound. Think about it and solve the riddle.

    Probably water weight. The bad news is that sometimes it takes a week or so to go back down. Try not to stress about it.

    You said you ate taco bell today and gained 1.5 lbs. You haven't even fully digested it yet. There is no way you gained actual fat already.
