    My friend's son weighed himself before dinner yesterday. Said he has to go to another thanksgiving dinner today, and will weigh in on Saturday. I'll let ya know, but I'd say yes. He had 2 huge helpings and heaps of desserts. lol.
    I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!

    I'd hate to be your plumber when that laxative kicks in.

    it's possible to put on some decent weight especially if the fluid intake was high...but 10 pounds?? that's quite the crap when it all gets processed

    I've lost near 10 lbs in a day before, but that was mostly water weight. So, I'm sure you could potentially put on 5-7lbs in a day, but I bet most of it's liquid and you'll end up losing most of it.

    No, it's not possible. Unless you were dehydrated the day before. You'd need to consume 35,000 calories to gain 10 pounds.

    I doubt it, but Boxers and wrestlers have been known to put on or lose up to 7 pounds in a day before a fight.

    I remember reading back in the 80's that Springsteen would lose 3-5 pounds per show.
