Toooooo much salt

I feel like I drank 64 oz from the dead sea yesterday. We were in the car all day, and we ate fast food each meal, and I gave each meal a healthy dose of salt. I don't know what I was thinking. It was gross, and according to my scale, I'm up 12 lbs today. I have 2 scales, and the other one has me up 9, which seems more like it. When I bloat, I BLOAT. I'm probably up 6-7 lbs of water weight and another 2-3 actual lbs from not eating at home for the past week and a half, not to mention from the fast food I ate yesterday.

Today I am cleansing my system. Not a silly cleanse, but just a water cleanse. For drinks, I will only consume water (and crystal light), and I will drink a gallon today. I will not add salt to anything, and I will only consume low sodium foods. I will work out, and sweat as much as possible. If I know myself they way I think I've grown to, these extra lbs will be gone in a few days.

I think most people would probably freak out at the sight of a scale up 9 lbs, but I have never seen any one's weight fluctuate from bloating like mine does. I used to have a VERY sodium rich diet, and for the past year +, I have cut down on salt tremendously. Now when I go overboard with salt (which used to be an every day thing for me), I balloon up like a puffer fish:

That's what I look like right now, only it's my feet and legs and hands and face that are all puffed out. Not for long, my friends! :)
