During China's Mid-Autumn and National Day holiday, a health AI tool called Ant Afford (蚂蚁阿福) tracked user weight changes, revealing that 600,000 participants collectively gained over 1 million jin (approximately 500,000 kg). Over 100,000 individuals gained more than 3 jin, with some provinces like Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, and Henan showing the highest increases. Despite this trend, 650,000 users still managed to lose a combined total of over 1 million jin during the same period. Experts suggest that holiday weight gain is often due to increased consumption of high-calorie foods, reduced activity, and disrupted sleep patterns, and advise that post-holiday weight fluctuations are often water retention and can naturally decrease within a few days with a return to normal eating habits.
