Yes, if you drink a lot of fluid and have a lot of food working its way through your digestive system. Kinda on the extreme end of a weight fluctuation but my weight can go up and down 5 pounds in a single day depending upon when I weigh myself.

Your body will burn some for energy, store some as fat and excrete some as waste. Do some extra cardio to minimize the fat storage.

That depends upon a lot of factors. However, I would assume that the sudden onset of extra chub is most likely due to the excess food you consumed and fluid retention. Once this passes through your body you should return somewhere near where you were. HOWEVER, your body will do its best to store those excess calories in the form of fat. So, you should burn some extra calories to help balance things out if your goal is to return to where you were before. The biology is actually more complicated but that's simple and reasonably accurate.

In short:

You ate like a pig and bloated up. Most of that bloat is temporary. However, your body will try and store as much as it can in the form of fat. Burn some extra calories to minimize the fat storage.

Well, in the long run drinking more water is good for you and helps with all sorts of metabolic processes. However, in the short-term it's likely to bloat you more. Go exercise if this concerns you.
