FOR WOMEN ONLY - WEIGHT GAIN

Hi Does anyone gain weight during their time of the month? I think I am up a few pounds hugs Pam

I know my weight loss comes to almost a complete halt when it is that time of the month... Normal people, not that we aren't normal-but you know what I mean, usually retain water so me coming to a halt is just fine with me. Mandie

Aunt Flo is here here now and I the scale hasnt moved in a week !!!! I hoping to hop on the scale when she leaves and be a couple pounds lighter ( or so I hope ) . Hugs ~ Aly

Aunt Flo - how cute

Usually that is the case for me too Mandie but this month I think it might be different. I do not know if its me but I have gained 5 lbs from this morning. All I ate today was a protein drink for breakfast a salad for lunch, about 7 almonds and another protein drink for diner . I also went to curves today. The only thing I can figure is my time of the month. Go figure? Just curious if this has happened to anyone else Pam

Sounds quite normal to me. I don't have Aunt Flo anymore, but I still get all the symptoms, so when it should be that time, I notice that my fingers are puffy, the scale is up a pound or two (or three or four) and I TRY to take it with a grain of salt. Such a joy to be a woman. Let us know in a few days when that scale comes back down! HUGS Kimberly

I always come to a complete halt, at least (if not gain)during that time of the month. And it seems I always lose a couple after. So be patient, it's just Aunt Flow sucking up all the water! Let's her! lol

Yeah it seems that I gain a lot during the right before time. I got on the scale a couple weeks ago and had gained like 10 pounds! I knew I hadnt messed up eating and I had been getting all of my protein in and water too, so I just kept on doing what I had been doing and sure enough when I started, poof! It all went away plus 5 more pounds! So keep your chin up, that is probably all it is.

Thanks everyone for your reply I think it would be great to Aunt Flo one of the things I just would love to get rid of Anyway she did come and visit this morning but the scale has not gone done I hope it goes down before I go for my 3 month check up I know I am doing everything I can so now its up to that darn scale hugs Pam
