    It's likely sodium, causing water retention. Drink lots of water to flush out the excess. In 2-3 days, your weight will be back to normal.

    PS: throw away your scale. They are evil things and must be destroyed. Trust your clothes and your measuring tape instead.

    Edit: after checking your profile, I'm more concerned that you not only label yourself anorexic, but state that you are okay with it. It isn't okay, okay? You can do long-term damage to your health with an untreated eating disorder. Please talk to someone you trust about this, and get some help.

    I seriously doubt you can gain 1.5kg from one night of binging so it is most likely water weight. Plus it could be pre-menstrual or even a combination. Don't stress, eat well, exercise and leave it a while before you weigh yourself again.

    Hey, it's your choice whether you want to waste energy panicking about something that happened yesterday, or if you want to put your energy into planning your meals and exercise so you have a nice balanced diary at the end of the day.
    Your body, your choice!

    Thanks so much. I know logically that I can't just gain that weight in like 12 hours but I am just out of my mind right now. I'm planning on drinking about 3l of water today and yeah I don't think I'll weigh myself for a few days

    I read your profile, I can only hope your mentality changes and you can seek therapy and help.

    ETA: I suffered from an eating disorder too, therapy was the best thing I ever did for myself. I'm not talking out my *kitten* here.

    I agree.

    I also agree. I knew a bit about eating disorders but not alot so I quickly googled it. It seems that you are heading down another road.
    It's very common that when you are anerexic, you start binging and it is very possible you did gain some weight because you have starved your body for so long...it's going to hold onto the food you gave it, because it doesn't know when you will feed it again. You need help before this turns into bulemia. You are causing a lot of damage on your body inside and out. Is being skinny more important to you than it is to have a happy LONG life.
    I am not trying to be mean but you need to talk to someone, anyone that has experience with eating disorders!!!

    Don't panic.. Just drink lots of water, maybe add some lemon in it, and go back to healthy eating. Look towards the future and not back at the past!

    Oops, didn't see all of these before I made my comment. You should seek help for your disorder - I agree with everyone else.
