would you gain 3.5kg in 27 days if you had hyperthyroidsim or diabetes? i mean i know people cant gain weitght with either one of this diseases so if i gain all these weight (3.5kg) that means i cant be sick, right?

    It just means that you are retaining water for some reason/s. Hormonal changes, high salt meal, new exercise routine, stress, lack of sleep.

    Weight gain doesn't diagnose illnesses, you need a Dr to do tests for that,

    See a Dr unless you have just been on a very indulgent holiday with all you can eat buffets - easy to put on that much in a fortnight!
