I wasn't sure if your carb fest weight bounce was expected or not. But I'd figured you wouldn't be too disheartened as you also mentioned having lost inches on the tape measure.
Question is, unless your cutting for a comp, why are you going very low carb that you need to re-feed from.
user69121-
I'm not going very low carb, but I am in a calorie deficit. Which means carb stores are low as well.
So a refeed day is probably beneficial (until I need to be super strict) to keep my metabolism humming/keep hunger at bay.
But a junk food refeed may hurt my goals, so rice and sushi and 350 grams of carbs up from 150 it was :)

Oh I totally did...Just an example to show weight is only one metric. And a refeed probably screws tanita fat measurements too.
Carb refeeds after full depletion are A Thing. I don't think I'm fully depleted but not yet at the fat loss is huge torture stage yet :)
