End in sight after holiday cheat!!

I ate anything and everything for about 4 days durring TG and now it seems the weight is just falling off. 6lbs to go now after only gaining about 2 lbs. I just hope it keeps going well. They said sometimes after a cheat this can happen and I'll say "it worked for me".

I would just count my blessings, really. I also have been successful getting rid of some of my "off the wagon" weight, but I would NOT depend on going off-plan to help lose weight....

A lot of the "cheat" weight is water that hitches a ride with the carbs as your glycogen stores are replenished. The resulting "loss" after you go back to low-carb is mostly this water being released. I've had to learn this the hard way, and I just don't want to see anyone else suffer!
