Yes! Anything more than five pounds (about 2.25 kilos) over the course of a week, which is an average of .71 pounds per day. If you can account for the gain, eating 3 bags of Halloween candy a day for a few days for example, then maybe it's not such a big deal. Otherwise, you should go see a doctor asap.

∙ 14y agoTechnically, yes, but I am going to assume it is probably not very healthy. You would have to consume at least 20,000 calories in those three days.
See, it takes 3,500 calories accumulated to gain 1 pound. So the 4 pounds you want to consume would be 14,000 calories. HOWEVER, your BMR is the number of calories your body burns just to stay alive (if you were to just stay still in bed all day) so burning those calories would put a dent the calories you are trying to accumulate. So you have to eat the same amount of calories as your BMR so that those break even and your other calories are your excess.
My BMR is 2,000 so I am going by my numbers. Yours may be more or less.
Just remember 3,500= 1 lbs

If you are gaining weight but losing fat is that ok?
Yes. If you are working out and gaining muscle tone, then it is reasonable that you may gain a little weight (a few pounds) or not lose as much weight as you normally would have if you were just losing "fat" weight. It is good that you are losing fat! In addition, you may be putting on some water weight as your body adjusts. This will go away completely within a few weeks or so. If this is not the case, and you are losing "fat" but still gaining weight, you may want to see a nutritionist or doctor to find out why that would be happening. Absent of that, there is nothing wrong with gaining a few pounds of muscle as you lose fat.
