    You could weigh yourself, but just know that if it is up a little, you shouldn't be disappointed. If you think it will make you bummed - wait a few days.

    Personally, I don't gain during that time. I think I gain and retain more the week before, but that could just be me.

    I personally try not to weight during my 'time'. I know it will go up due to water weight..and I don't want to be discouraged! :) It is up to you..but remember us woman usually retain water during our time! :)

    I like to weigh after the visitor leaves. I always retain water the week before/during, so I seem to be lower afterward! Its like a little reward for having to deal with "the curse" :)
