Cheat day

[Abraham67]

What's the most "weight" you guys have gained after a cheat day/meal

Had mine last night scale was up 7lbs lol!!!

I know it's not actually weight, I just find it amusing how much it goes up!

8-10, probably.

This is the opposite of your question but is kinda relevant . (Earlier this week)

Was only a cheat meal, not a whole day, but ate a large pizza and half an order of breadsticks. Pounded water as pizza usually dehydrates me and I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night with the worlds most cotton filled mouth... However....
Woke up the same weight as the day before!!!

Weakest cheat meal ever

You stayed the same weight!? Wtf!! Haha that's kinda awesome tho, I wish it was like that for me!

I've gained up to 20 pounds on a carb up. Wouldn't call it a "cheat" meal/day though but a scheduled carb up.

20lbs in one day!? Wow that's pretty intense!

Never understood a whole cheat day. A cheat meal yes and a refeed yes. But a whole day of cheating?

Yeah I prob subconsciously ate less during the day to "deserve" the cheat meal.

I put on fat relatively easily so if I know a cheat meal is coming I usually drop calories in the other meals for fear of getting fatter haha

We might be the same person lol. I gain fat very fast too, and do the same thing. I honnestly feel bad after a cheat meal but it's so necessary to stop my cravings and just to enjoy myself once in a while.

This...
Just a recipe for disaster.

most i go up is like 2-3 pounds
10 pounds after my first competition, but a lot of that has to do with water restriction the day prior (not cutting water but limitation) and glycogen.
Most times i barley gain weight on my cheat meals. a whole day, just dumb.

I did 20 this past weekend

It was actually a 2 day cheat. I didn't count, but I must've done at least 10k between the 2 days.
