Now here is the question... How the heck can the body.. put on 50/60 % of that in a month? This is what happened to me as I took off for a month due to a torn calf and the holidays... Holy hell I cant believe how fast i packed it on...

Is thier somthing up with the way my body works?

Its almost impossible to have that much weight gain that rapid by just letting your eating habits slip over a month. i suspect you might not be monitering your weight and caloric intake and might have the time frame of the weight gain wrong? For me food was an addiction so to this day i still log my weight daily along with EVERYTHING i eat and its calories and protein just so i dont slip up and i can catch any unwanted gains. Usually you see rapid weight gain in a crash diet because your metabolism will slow down so when you start eating poorly the body turns the calories into fat. If you feel like these do not apply to you i would consult a physician to make sure everything checks out. I have lost 70lbs since last january so i can relate to what you did,went from 290 to 217.
