I just read a post on plateaus and I have to ask, has anyone noticed having a plateau near their period. I have noticed I lose very little to no weight the week before and the week of my period, then the week after I am down 6 or 7 pounds. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes I am the same way. I won't lose for 2 weeks before than right after my period I am down 3 or 4 pounds. The things us women have to go through! --Marianne 5'0 256/133/120

I am the opposite. I plateau two weeks before my period and lose a whole lot during my period. It is really weird the way the body works.

Absolutley! You hit on the head. I plateau the week before and the week of my period, then I lose the next two weeks and the cycle starts all over again. In fact I am starting now and I haven't lost a pound in one week. So, by this time next week my weight loss should start up again. We pay a high price for being women.

Thanks for all the replies. I was starting to get a little worried, but it sounds like it is not abnormal to plateau like that. I get so stressed when I dont lose. Thanks again.
