[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last summer, I gained 12 pounds on a 5 day beach trip. [/quote] It takes roughly 3500 calories to gain a pound. To gain 12 pounds in 5 days would mean you consumed approximately 42,000 calories in excess of your normal metabolic rate, or an extra 8,400 calories per day. That was quite a vacation you had.[/quote] I ate about 2000cal more than my TDEE each day, so that’s about 3 pounds of it. The rest was water from the sodium and extra carbs. My skin literally hurt to touch the first 2 days back. By the 6th day I was down to the real weight gain. So, scale said 12 pounds, which isn’t necessarily 12 pounds of “real” weight. [/quote] Why would you start a thread with an incredibly misleading statement about gaining 12 lbs? By the way , I lost 4 lbs exercising one morning and gained it all back by the end of the day. I should start a thread saying I gained 4 lbs in 12 hours. [/quote]
