    I weigh often as I like to learn more about my daily fluctuations and when to expect changes. I typically gain anywhere from 2 to 5 pounds during TOM. It usually drops right back off when it has passed. Sometimes, however, my body will hold onto the weight a little longer. So don't let it get to you. It's natural, and like you said, everyone is different. Just keep working toward your goals and you will be fine!

    I weigh daily no matter what. It's good to understand what your trends are so that you don't freak out when something completely normal happens (like weight gain for your period).

    I weigh every day. That being said, my TOM started this morning, weighed this morning and am down 2 lbs. <shrugs>

    I weigh everyday. I'm always up 4 pounds from the day before my period starts till several days after it ends. It sucks, but the more I get used to it, the less upsetting it is.
