I was watching 1000 Ways to Die and there was a story of a prisoner who was held in deplorable conditions who escaped and found a room full of food. He rapidly ate a bunch of food and promptly died. The doctor they interviewed said he died of "Refeeding Syndrome" in which his body went from a fat-burning state way too rapidly to a carb-burning state and the result was death.

Today is a planned Cheat Day and I've already consumed more sugar and flour and other delicious, empty, sweetly disgusting carbs today than I have in the last 120 days of doing this WOE. I am a worrywart and at times a bit of a hypochondriac so I'm sitting here hoping I'm not going to croak. LOL

Anyone heard of this? Or heard of any LC'ers dropping dead from hopping off the wagon for a day and indulging in lots of baaaaaaaaaaad foods? Eeeeekkkk! I still have chocolate-covered bananas and a Chinese buffet to enjoy later.
