If you don’t diet at the weekend and end up gaining 4 pounds, is that possible?

yep

ilovetrees30 · 02/12/2018 17:54

Its unlikely to be all fat over a weekend. More likely to be water retention for most of it

MikeUniformMike · 02/12/2018 17:57

yes, but you will lose it again.

Theimpossiblegirl · 02/12/2018 17:57

Yes but can usually shift it again with a few days of being really strict.

CherieBabySpliffUp · 02/12/2018 17:57

Yes but you can just as easily lose it when you get back on the diet

keely71 · 02/12/2018 17:58

I can gain that in 24 hours! Grin

Yep- I feel your pain :(

I'm 16st and can lose or gain 7lbs in 24 hours.

halfwitpicker · 02/12/2018 18:53

Yeah man, easily

Autumnchill · 02/12/2018 18:55

Yep! Standard weekend for me. Managed to get down to 11.7 for an event Thursday, Friday morning I'm 11.11.

I'll be 11.12 tomorrow morning but by calorie counting I'll be down to 11.6 ready for another event Friday!

Yep really easy. This weekend I went for afternoon tea yesterday, too much alcohol so I've had toast for brekkie and some pick & mix at the cinema but then had a sensible lunch & tea I'll have easy put on 3lb but it will be off by next fri for me to put on again over the weekend 😀

If you eat two tubes of Pringles on a Saturday night you’ll gain about 6 pounds! It’s likely water retention

LittleLlamaontheduskyroad · 02/12/2018 19:01

It won't be all fat. Depending on how mad you went, about 1lb will be fat. The rest will likely be food weight & water retention. Drink all the water.

xamyrose · 02/12/2018 20:49

Let’s hope I still lose weight this week then!
