if you eat a 1 pound meal will you directly gain 1 pound afterwords?

No, because it depends on WHAT you eat.  Fats, carbohydrates and proteins all have different caloric values. \n\nYou may be one pound heavier INITIALLY after eating one pound of food but once your body starts breaking down everything the actual contents of the food will dictate weight gain.  Remember that 1 pound is equal to 3500 calories.  So it all depends on what you eat.\n\nOne pound of raw vegetables does not equal one pound of sweets.  The pound of sweets has a much higher caloric value and will contribute to the 3500 threshold needed for weight gain of another pound.  Does that make sense?

Your request is impossible.  One pound lost means you burning 3500 calories to get it off.  3500 OVER and ABOVE waht you are eating have got to be burned.  At a 1000 calorie deficit per day, that is still only 3.5 lbs. a week.\n\nInstead, try losing it about as slowly as you put it on.  I KNOW you didnt' gain 10 lbs. a week!\n\nEat less, exercise more.  It will slowly and steadily come off.  The steadily is the crucial word here.  Don't play w/ your health trying to lose weight fast.

If your trying to loose weight your going to screw yourself over in the future. your body will slow its metabilism down so that the one meal that you eat lasts all day. therefore when you start eating the way you need to you'll gain weight really fast. the best thing for you to do is instead of eating 1 meal eat 6 small meals a day. this will speed up your metabolism up and give your bady the energy it needs to burn calories. I tried the whole not eating bit when I was 13 till i was 15. I now have a hole in my stomach and puke up mast of what i eat.

Not only does your weight differ from day to day, it fluctuates all day long.  Drinking the water probably made you gain that one pound.  Remember though that each time you eat, you are going to put some weight on your body, usually ounces, but still.  Its what your body does with the calories that is important.  The water will be released when you go to the bathroom, as will the food after your body takes from it what it needs.  My advice to you is to not stress over a pound, and quit obsessing over the scale.  Weigh yourself once a week instead of daily.  This method shows you better anyway, because it gives you a baseline that you can see change or unchange over time.

I guess your real weight would be the one when your stomach is empty, because that's what you really weigh. Weighing yourself after a meal can maybe add a couple of pounds. \nIn my opinion you should weigh yourself at any given moment of the day, except in the morning or right after a meal. That should give you a fair average and not mislead you.

during the day u usually eat abotu 3 pounds of food slash gain 3 pounds but that quickly goes down back to ur normal weight, u will not retain all of that weight only some, u essentially keep what u do no burn off during the day as the rest of teh weight, so if u sat around ull still have a bit of that weight but no u didnt really gain 4 pounds , and think about it, in the mornign u just got up u have nothign in u, then u eat, ur gonna weigh more! and tday is the day to pig out so dont feel bad!

3500 calories equals about 1 lb.\n\nSo you'll need to consume 3500 more calories on a weekly basis.

It really depends on the women. I actually loss a pound or two when i have my period, because it makes me hyperactive and not want to eat. Most women gain one or two pounds because of water weight and cravings.

MIGRAINE headache. You probably won't make the 5 days and even if you do you'll probably gain whatever you lost with your first real meal.  Our bodies don't like to starve and it will retaliate by holding on to whatever you eat as stored fat, hence, the weight will come back, and you'll probably eat lots more.

No, you need to eat quite a bit to put on weight.\n\nIn fact 8000 calories = 1kg of Fat\n\nmost if not all of that would be just used up in your daily living needs (2000 - 3000 cal) and that meal would have = less than 400 calories or 50 grams of fat if it was all converted to fat which meals never are.\n\nyou will actually probably have lost weight.

Yes it will make you loose weight equal to your bowl contents but you will anyhow eat the same amount of food and that weight is gained.

I'm not a dietician, but I would imagine - initially - you'll have a 3-ounce weight gain since you physically consumed the food.  However, your body will break the food down, obtain the nutrients from it, and use it for your body's basic metabolic functions.  \n\nWeight gain comes from intaking more food than your body needs to thrive.  Weight loss comes from obtaining your ideal caloric intake to maintain your current weight, and lower the overall daily calories.

You will gain twice as much once you start eating. Don't do it.\n\nGood luck\nG.G.

it doesn't work like that.  if you eat 1 gram of chocolate your body weight won't go up by 1 gram.  you break down the food and it gets absorbed and used and excreted.  stop worrying about time and look at the calories.  it doesn't matter that you can eat 6 pounds of chocolate in one day and not gain more then 1 pound, the issue is that you just ate 6000 calories and that is what is going to cost you in the end.

You can not eat something once and add 3 pounds.\nIt takes a couple of days of binge eating

The SAFER way to gain weight is to eat slightly larger porportions of the food you eat now. By increasing your calorie intake, you will gain some weight, but not a lot like eating a bunch of junk food and sitting around will do.
