How fast do we put on weight typically?
Ok so if I were to let my diet and exercise routine slide for lets say 1 to 1 1/2 weeks and ate a little more than maintenance calories how quickly would that weight begin to appear?

3500calories over maintainence = 1 lb of fat, hope that helps
If you want to gain 1 pound per week then you would eat an extra 500 calories per day.
