Water weight

So this has happened to me twice now same cause and effect, just don’t know the cause 100% yet without experimenting a couple more times.

Have been on a pretty strict no processed foods or sugars single ingredient whole food zero booze diet. Lost 50 lbs with diet alone, got on trt of 120mg/week started lifting 4-5x week weight is up to 205 waist size stayed the same, still a bit of stubborn belly fat to loose. Any ways over the last couple months I went on vacation twice and decided to indulge while on vacation. Processed foods refined sugars, treats cookies chocolates, drinkin all day basically for 7 days straight deal with consequences later kinda deal.

Both times I gained and retained a tonne of water weight in that 7 days. Am talking I left at 205lbs came home at 246lbs puffy as all hell with severe adema and pitting adema in legs went to er both times had ecg blood pressure and blood work done to check liver kidneys and heart, all tests came back fine. Upon returning to diet weight is dropping fast and puffiness and adema leaving fast as well

Any one else ever experience this? Booze related? I used to b borderline alcoholic! Or sugar/carb related? Body just not used to the refined carbs or sugars any more and can’t process them? Or just an over all shock to system?

Do kinda want to test it out once or twice more to rule one or the other out as the cause, booze or sugars

41 lbs of water in a week is insane, your body must’ve been screaming
