Can you gain 13 lbs of weight over night?!


Question: Can you gain 13 lbs of weight over night.?
I've been doing atkins for two weeks now and have found it hard going. Yesterday began eating carbs again and essentially have come off my diet. I weighed before I began eating them and then I weighed again this morning and i've gained 13 lbs!! I know this is mostly water, but other people that diet and then cheat only gain 4 lbs the next day. How can mine be this much.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
While 13lbs seems a lot as you say it is probably mostly water weight and is nothing to really worry about.Health Question & Answer

Im not sure that it is correct that you can gain this much weight over night. I would check again on the scales. If not the larger weight increase could be down to you filling your body's 2week craving for the carbs you have not eatenHealth Question & Answer

This sounds a little exaggerated. Did you go to the bathroom before you weighed yourself.? I've never really believed in that "water weight" stuff, but here's good luck to you losing weight. =)Health Question & Answer

Atkin's is both an unhealthy and unnatural diet. Better to use something more conventional and of course exercise is a must!Health Question & Answer
