Before I left for vacation in late july, I weighed myself at 182, which is about where I normally am - I did lose around 30-35 pounds in the past few years, and the lowest ive gotten down to was 178...this is within range, and normal.

I go on vacation. I didn't feel like I ate a ton, and I went for one long hike(around 2-3 hours) and was walking a decent bit other days.

I come back from vacation, one day my friend made ribs and sides so I ate a shit ton of it, and then two days later I had some other friends over and crushed two large pizzas with them. Horrible, I know, but...

I actually felt like I gained weight. Like, my stomach seemed like it was bigger, and not just bloatedness or whatever.

I get on the scale and it reads 196! What the hell is this? I figure a lot of it is water weight/need to shit it out, but that is a gain of 14ish pounds in like 2 weeks.

So, the past two days i've been trying to eat less, and it's working. I got on the scale today and it said 185. So I didn't actually gain a ton of weight, but i've never seen weight fluctuations like that before, regardless of how much I eat or how much water I drink.

I'm going to eat less food for a few more days and see if I truly return to normal.
