    That's great you've found what's working (eating more) but unless you're eating 20,000 calories or more per day, it may be water weight from increased carbs and sodium.

    Watch the trend over time.

    You would be eating 3,500 calories over your TDEE every day then to gain a pound a day.

    In looking at your diary, 7 pounds of fat or muscle, not likely... It is only water weight gain/retention due to many variables. Keep going though!!

    I have to be the white chick commenting on the cute fro. Anyways yes you probably need more fiber, if you get what I mean.

    Well done on your water weight gain. A consistent, moderate surplus over time will yield good gains (with a good workout plan).
