    You're not alone! I lose when it's my time of the month (better than the rest of the month usually) and show a gain during ovulation. I also am extra hungry during ovulation and get cravings that most women seem to associate with PMS and their period. Strange stuff.

    Nope. I lose big right before but then gain a pound or three of water weight that I hold on to for the duration of period. But I'm usually still losing during that time, I just can't tell until after it is over.

    If I don't cave to the cravings.

    The majority of my weight loss for the month is during TOM. I usually lose around 1-1.5 kg while I'm on my period and I'll be lucky to lose 0.5 kg the rest of the month.

    The first day is the worst for me, I give myself that day. After that, I just pretend I'm a Viking warrior in a battle who's been stabbed but I have to stay strong, otherwise my men will lose hope and fail.

    lol thats a good way :D .. i meant was its not only the pain its also about being uncomfortable doing some moves :| i mean u cant really move(exercise) that much properly when you are on periods.. i have to rest three days atleast.. fourth day onwards i am fine though.

    I'm one of those people that gains right before and the first couple days during and then around the 3rd/4th day it starts dropping back off.

    As for working out during ToM, I find that any exercise actually makes me feel better. You just have to bite the bullet and get moving.

    I'm the opposide. When I'm on (and few days before) my period I eat more and tend to gain little. After that the things go back to normal.
