    In 05 i gained 40lbs in 5 days, Talk about adema, that was very dangerous! Like Mike says just ramp up your eating slowly and only pig out that night after the show and Sunday mornings breakfast. Then i would recommend eating your diet food for most of the week, just increasing carbs as you feel are needed. Keep doing cardio and avoid high Sodium. Its well worth the effort after a show to ramp back up the proper way because for 1 it can be very risky to your health to be carrying around 40 pounds extra of water gained in 48 hours, and two, you no longer look like that stud who took first place, you will look like the marshmallow man.

    yes tell me about it, i had no idea the rebound effect would be that bad, i just cutted the dueritics totally and started to eat tons of carbs days after, was my first show after all, so not much experiance, i really looked and felt like crap afterwards...lesson learned
    but things looks much better now, and the show went good, and im all happy again
