Can I ask a question?

Last weekend I had a bad diet weekend. I had some bread, pizza and naan bread amongst over carb full food items.

What happens inside when I have a mini carb binge? My body is in katosis mode so I'm sure it gets very confused. But what does it do when it has a sudden flood of carbs? Does it store them up (so storing fat?) or does it help the weight loss when I go carb free again?

My weight a week later is slightly under what it was a week ago, so I don't seem to have suffered on the scales.

Clearly I have no dietary techy know how, but I'm curious as to what is king on inside my body! Bear in mind I'm only interested in losing weight at this stage. The healthiness will come later.
When you eat the carbs, your body switches fron Keytosis, i.e burning stored fat for energy and uses the Carbs to burn for energy (as Carbs are a much easier source of energy for the body) What this means is that the stored fat that was being used for energy is no longer being used and any fat you have been putting into your body (including the fat in the pizzas etc) is also not being used for energy and thus stored as fat.
