Does anyone gain weight when they have their period?
I recently went down to 134 a couple of weeks ago.
Now that I have my period I am 139.
Does that make sense?

It totally makes sense. I'm there right now myself and I know better to not even get on the scale. It's water weight and it will go away once you're done. For me it's also the chocolate cravings I get. I had a hersey bar yesterday, and yes, I ate the whole thing. But I figure, if I can't have one candy bar, once a month, at such a depressing time of the month, then life ain't worth living! ;)

Thank the Lord I don't gain but I don't lose either! I've decided to stop weighing myself on the Friday before that blessed event so I won't be so discouraged like I was last Friday ;)

Fab@50 posted something interesting about water a day or so ago. Apparently, drinking more water when bloated keeps it to a minimum. I thought it was very interesting, check it out...

OK I'll admit that I'm a scale addict but .... I weighed myself everyday through a couple of cycles and got the drift of the gain and the whoooosh loss. Knowledge is reassuring through these little ups and downs.

It most certainly does--chalk up one more thing women have to deal with.
