Fell off low carb wagon yesterday and lost weight!

[mrscardigan]

I've been low carbing/exercising for months and have lost a stone. Yay!
However, in the last three/four weeks despite low carbing I've lost not one pound!
Yesterday I went to a barbecue and, despite good intentions, had the usual burgers, sausages, bread, cakes, wine, etc and today have woken up 2 pounds lighter! How does that work?
I'm desperate to lose a few more pounds before big holiday coming up. Can anyone explain I've not lost anything for past few weeks when I've been eating the same low carb foods I have been for months? But then lose weight after eating junk food?

I believe it's known as a 'carb refeed'. I can't remember how it works, but it's often recommended as a way to break a stall.

The key to it, though, is to get back on the low carb wagon asap and keep going rather than start to inhale carbs again!

Here's an interesting piece about it
