I know it's true that you'll burn more calories when your on your period, but is it also true that you'll weight more when your on your period? One of my friends is stressing about her weight also, and asked me this, but I have no idea.

    It's so crazy everyone worries about the scale....Tell her to measure herself and see will see if her changes in her eating, & exercise is working for her.

    I tend to retain more water and I get bloated, so I always weigh a little more... Probably doesn't help that I shovel any and all chocolate in sight into my mouth around that time either :)

    I gain 2-3 pounds of water weight when I'm on my period, but usually lose it within 3 days afterwards.

    I read somewhere that a woman burns 200-300 more calories a day while on her period.
    I don't even bother to weigh before and during my period because I know I retain a lot of water then...
    So, Yes, I agree with both of those statements!

    I retain a LOT of water during that time, so I always weigh more. I try not to get on the scale during that week, it's just depressing. A couple days later, though, everything goes back to normal.
