  During the week I'm fairly strict in no snacking. But on the Friday and Saturday I can let go for example eating a pizza and enjoy a chocolate bar. Next morning I'm a 1 or 2 kg heavier. But I don't care its temporary. After 1 day back to my normal eating schedule I'm back on my ideal weight.

  Go for a good run, drink some water and don't eat for a bit.

  For me it’s water retention, I accept it and just drink water and be sure to move the next day. Often I feel like that after pasta dinner.

  I just did yesterday. 😂 I mean I’ve internalised that it’s okay to not have a perfect diet. If I’m on track 90% of the times, I’m not letting guilty get me. I’m also a bit of a food tracker, so I go back to back to it if I need a visual reference.

  Fibermaxxing. Lol. Get 25-50g of fiber a day.
