@Mountaindewed - You need to get a weight trending app. They flatten out the highs and lows and give you a better idea of where you are. Gaining and losing actual body mass is a slow process (ignoring ridiculous scenarios like eating a few pounds of butter cream frosting). Jumping a half pound up in a day is possible at a holiday feast. 5 pounds in 2 days? 17,500 surplus calories? Joey Chestnut consumed over 20,000 in one sitting eating over 70 hot dogs and buns. So over 60 to get 17,500. I doubt you ate the equivalent of 30 hot dogs on top of your normal day's consumption each of the last two days. It's a spike.

Low sugar day made it a lot easier to stay under goal yesterday. I may weigh tomorrow, but will likely wait until Tuesday or Wednesday.
