When you say "quite a bit," do you have any idea just how much?

That would be my question, too.
3500 cals = 1 lb. So to have gained 5 lbs of fat, you'd have needed to eat 17,500 calories *over* your baseline in 2 days. Do you think you really ate that much?
OTOH, if you ate badly, not just in quantity, but in quality, it's entirely possible that you ate more salt, more oils, more of things that is causing your body to retain water and bloat. So it's quite possibly a combination of the two, but I'd bet money that most of it is water.
And FWIW, I gained and lost 4.2 lbs in the last 5 days because of my TOM ... so don't discount that either.
