ofcoarse its possible yur body hadnt yet finished digesting the food and getting it out of your body. Pluss its very easy to gain back what yu've kept off. Also dont be mad if yu gain before yu lose because body muscle weighs more then fat

No - everything you ate last night did NOT have time to magically turn into fat cells by the next morning. Your body hasn't even finished metabolizing what you ate last night.

Your weight will change all the time due to the foods you eat, the amount of water you have in your (or don?t), the sodium you have eaten, etc etc. Many many factors influence the number on the scale. You can weigh 1/2 pound more just after eating oatmeal, but that doesn't mean you gained fat cells. Also, you didn't say what type of workouts you are doing, but muscle holds on to water while it's repairing. Water isn't fat!

If you think you over did it - go out now and burn off some of those calories. Since you have been working out, your metabolism is probably geared up and running higher, so burning more calories even at rest.

Good luck!

it is very possible. when u have cravings, have something small, or treat yourself once a week to something u like, but dont gorge.

Well sometimes you just need to treat yourself not every day but like ones a month. Don't engorge yourself but eat some things that you wouldn’t but a good portion. As for the mean time just continue your diet. Because if you don't treat your self from time to time every thing will just crumble down. Hope I helped.
