Do you guys retain alot of water around your friendly visitor each month. It seems like I always gain right before and during. Then after I will lose the weight I seemed to gain

    Yep, half a stone some months. Best just not to look. I find the cravings worse than anything right before, though (SO HUNGRYYY)

    Yep, water weight gets me, then. I blame it on ALLLLLL of the sodium my body craves the week before.

    I don't have periods because of my birth control, but losing weight is much slower because of it, its like a drag. When I was off birth control I lost a lot more really quickly, but hormones really did play havoc on me.

    Being a woman really smells sometimes >:

    Log it all and you can look back over time and see the pattern. That said, I'd avoid salty things and drink extra water if I still had that problem. I'm older now, and beyond that.:wink:

    Yes, but I realize that if I do core workouts, the cravings are less. I feel like my stomach is full because it's tight.. Strange feeling, but I'm not complaining.
