Looks like the second day you had lotsa salt...the chile would have lots, the chili, nuts, salmon cakes, triscuits all have plenty, then you drank a bunch of water which will dilute the concentration of salt in your system, but in exchange you retain water...which is heavy.
Combine this with a lack of veggies to keep things movin, and yes, I could totally see you weighing that much more.
...that's my 2 cents, lol.

I decided to go onto a longer window and the first day just had two eggs for breakfast and had a wendy's chili for lunch and a regular dinner followed by the next day skipping breakfast and having a large wendy's chili for lunch and salted nuts in the afternoon, salmon cakes, tuna and cottage cheese and triscuits for dinner and a few shots of whiskey.... So I drank a lot of water to ward of the possibility of having a headache... crappy night sleep as usual if I drink just a little. I sleep well if I don't drink or if I drink a lot. So anyways, I get up this morning and the scale (which I believe is pretty good and accurate as it is digital and all) reads a gain of 5 lbs since yesterday! My conclusion on this is that what I thought was weight loss was to a large extent not having so much food in the gut and water loss in the muscles etc. This is weird because I broke 160 quite a few weeks ago. Then broke 155 last week and have been hanging out here and now this morning the scale shows 159.6 while yesterday it was 154.6. I think I am going to stop thinking too much about this. Its not like I ate a cake yesterday or anything.

The last time I lost weight it was three years ago and I had two eggs for breakfast, peanuts as snacks when necessary, a double cheeseburger or a wendies small chili for lunch and dinner but not overdoing dinner and it took longer to get down to 155 but I could see my abs. So I am thinking because of the faster weight loss, either I lost more muscle or less fat, something like that. And I have been lifting weights more faithfully this time and not overdoing that either.
